Central Plaza Christmas Decorations

Post by parrot » November 23, 2019, 1:30 pm

The inside of Central Plaza is as nicely decorated for Christmas as I've ever seen it. Nothing chintzy....lots of photo ops for all the people who indulge in selfies. No signs of Santa, though.

Saw this last week parrot, prompted me to go in search of Easter eggs, suppose they don't hit the shelves until Jan 1.
I had a bumper sticker in Texas that read 'Beam me up Scotty'. I often wish I could find one in Udon Thani

At least they don’t have Christmas music, which you get for about 3 months in other countries.

It’s still 13 weeks to Pancake Day but grocery stores are selling milk, flour & eggs already. Unbelievable :shock:

One of the many positives for leaving here is the opportuntity to abstain totally from.all the Christmas bollocks IF ONE CHOOSES TO DO SO .. i do ..which is slightly hipocrytical as we do see an upturn in the booze business Nov thru new year .

Imo christmas and all.it entails has bern roasted out if alloreportionsin the UK .. and its spreading .. Christmas carols in Buriram.makro ..and a tree in my local watering hole seems ott when looking where we are n the very few expats around here .

Ba humbug i here you cry .. yep thsts me

JK Rowling is still fuming that JC gets a bigger market share in the "Birth celebrations of a fictional character in a book" than Harry Potter

1. Chang of Christmas past (empty)
2. Chang of Christmas present (half empty or half full depending on your attitude)
3. Chang of Christmas future (cold and frosty in the refrigerator)

and a Merry Xmas to you all
