Rainy season seems to be coming, because apparently 7/11 is handing out free umbrellas. No idea what the eligibility requirement is, but I just got one. It was a 1100 baht bill, so maybe that was it, or I'm just a lucky customer#, or who knows. The girl clerk said something to a guy, he took off, she asked me to wait, and I was assuming he was just grabbing change from the safe, but he came back with an umbrella. Nice little umbrella too, which will come in handy, because I don't have one. To be honest, when it's +35C out, I really don't mind wandering around in the rain a little.

Anyone else get one yet? If not, go drop over 1000 baht at 7/11, and see what happens. Maybe you'll get one too.

Christian, I'm not sure, how should we do this? Should I take a photograph of myself beside the umbrella with a spoon on my nose, or should I rush back down to the 7/11 and get a video interview with the clerk that handed me the umbrella, or??? lol
