Bearing in mind that we use the word "ass" ( literally a donkey) to describe a numpty, a buffoon, an idiot etc, Palestinians know an American "ass" when they see him on TV, or an American "arsehole" when they hear him. Just like we all do.

surely in Chaucer's time that would be arfesOriginally Posted by Oliver2
Arfes is probably derived from the French 'la fesse' referring to one cheek that makes up a bottom 'la derrière'.
Bkkguy is partly correct but the consonant to which he refers is not our "f"; it lacks the middle bar, is a form of "s" and its use instead of "s" is dependent on its position in the word.
This must be the most interesting thread on this forum. Ever. But no more please.... let's get get back to arses, arfes or even asses.
Yes indeed, the thread has gone arseways!
Halcyon, please rescue

OMG-first thanks. Have not been there so long-has anyone current. uptodate pix of what the signs show now? Was not that giant streetwide board with Boyztown removed to spare some easily hurt souls?
Now that I see this and back to subject: if at all possible collecting old pix would be more fun and instructive as just gathering names+adresses.
Will do tomorrow with the list

Just a quick thank you to the posters for their old photos, maps etc. Please continue.
Sorry if I inadvertently sidetracked the thread re asxxxx!
Sorry? No need. These loonies -- I'm one -- love it as long as it's not perpetrated by an obvious troll. Some of the best posts are off the beaten track.
(Many might disagree but they are stick-in-the-muds with zero cosmic giggles).
Just another reason why I love living in Thailand
