These boys sure get around.Originally Posted by bobsaigon
In Sydney earlier this week I was sitting on the train on my way to a meeting and spotted a conspicuous pair. In a city full of suits during business hours, there was an older, overweight guy with a young Thai boy... interesting.
The older guy was middle-aged, Australian, fairly overweight, dressed in brown trousers, a big pink button-up shirt and blue suspenders. He was playing the tour guide... making all kinds of comments to the Thai boy who was not so young (maybe mid to late 20s) and of the fairly dark skinned variety (actually Cambodian maybe?).
The Thai boy looked like he had landed on Mars. He had this blank look on his face... looking around like he was barely comprehending what he was seeing around him. He'll have some real stories to tell when he gets back to his family.
We got off at the same stop, which is on the Northern end of the central business district where the Opera House and Harbour Bridge are. They wondered off towards the Opera House in the warm sun while I headed straight for the nearest skyscraper for what ended up being probably the longest and most convoluted meeting of the week :tongue3:
