3/5.

I lived in Phuket in 2011/2012. An establishment I occasionally frequented was called "Tsunami Massage", in Patong. It had a sign depicting a cartoonish guy running away from a giant wave. Thai humour and spirit…

I was there on a work stay in 2005 around March / April.

Walking along Kata Beach, one wave came up a few meters further than the others, beach vendors scatter, howls of laughter, splashing and shrieks of “tsunami”. I thought it was a bit too soon for humor, but they would know better than me.

Just the 2 correct this time.  Hard to believe 20 years has passed. 

With all the technology about, one can never predict or control the forces of mother nature. 

Earthquakes, volcanoes and fierce/strong/bad weather... So much power can be unleashed and there is bugger all us meer humans can do about it. 

It may make us stop and think for a while... meanwhile the earth keeps revolving as it always has, and probably always will unless some idiots decide to push their big red buttons. 

But nature is a bigger power and will continue to remind us on occasion. Some will take notice. 

Another good quiz Big H. Keep em coming!
