Marriage proposal in Pattaya

A strange Thai girl proposed marriage as I stumbled back to my Pattaya hotel last Saturday. It wasn't a joke either - she really meant it.

It was 2am when a pair of Thai girls blocked my path. One could have been a bar girl but the other looked like a regular businesswoman. Apparently she was. Her English-speaking friend explained that she was a respectable girl looking for a farang husband. She chose Pattaya as her hunting ground because "it have farang too much."

When she realised that I spoke Thai, the businesswoman's face lit up. She bombarded me with questions and became very enthusiastic when she found out that I was unmarried and lived in Bangkok. "Give me your number" she said. "We can meet up in Bangkok and then get married." She went on to describe how perfect her life would be.

Before she could continue, I cut her short to explain that I had a girlfriend already. "Why didn't you tell me before?" she cried as she stormed off into the night.

Francine's comment, made seemingly at random almost three years after the original piece, distils the crazed appeal of Mango Sauce to its exotic essence.

Good luck, Francine and Sami!
