whosyourdaddy Posted June 28, 2003 Report Share Posted June 28, 2003 For the women< I always buy out 1/2 the store at Naraya. (1st floor world trade, soi Patpong, Sukumvit near Emporium) Also some wooden placemats and chop sticks. Bras and underwear Copied sunglasses and tshirts Pantip CDs ( great for dad) copied Wallets and bags thai whisky a sample of Thai spice packages ( tom yum etc) But I am sure they will be just as happy with a Jazz smile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straycat Posted June 28, 2003 Report Share Posted June 28, 2003 Speaking about amulets, what about a Palad Khik. At least they're mostly small :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest lazyphil Posted June 28, 2003 Report Share Posted June 28, 2003 I bought back one of those cheap little red and gold wooden Buddha Shelves for Buddha paraphernalia on for a good friend who lived in LOS with his falang mrs working for WorldWide Fund for Nature. They are both total LOS junkies and were, lets say very happy to have this (cost 100 baht!), when ever we go to see them its always adorned with flowers and decomposing fruit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 29, 2003 Report Share Posted June 29, 2003 Monks Bowl, the ones that they collect their alms in. I pick one up everytime I'm in Thailand, just go to the munks bowl village, its listed on the Nancy Chandler map. When buying makesure you get on that was made by hand. They come in a big or small size and painted black or plain. Just make sure that when you ask for a hand made one they wrap up a hand made one.

You're certainly right about that. They're very hard to find & I mostly only see the "big" type that look like nothing else than a dildo (the type that are somewhat common in Thai offices & various businesses [they're palad khiks, right?]). However, the suggestion was mostly meant as a joke here. I'm not sure Mother Jazz would appreciate a palad khik. But while we're on the subject, can you recommend any particular shop/area/monk/wat to find a good palad khik -- in or outside of BKK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
