This morning at 8.00 came a guy to clean the huge termite house opposite us. He opened his car doors and switched on the ever so merry Thai music. Had to go out and politely ask to switch da f.. off da f.. music. Got usual ok ok and no action. Had to politely repeat my humble request in all laguages available to me at this early hour. It is important not to wave hands or in fact make any gestures in this situation. Keep hands clenched behind your back and speak quietly. As quiet as possible. Then they know you are angry. Opposite to Western cultures where you raise voice to convey your emotion. This quiet mix of selected Danish and Russian words peppered with Italian, English, some French and some German (the latter as a cherry on top of icing) made the bloke cut da f.. off. Piece and quiet in paradise.
