Expand Just read this entire post today//// When I saw what Hank replied, it was exactly what my reply would have been. You've been there forever, I know that you knew what this was all about.

He will likely go to see his family in the day time, or several days later if they live far away. Thai boys like to spend their birthdays drunk with friends not in the countryside with their family!

Guest Posted September 29, 2020 Posted September 29, 2020 1 Asians can look very young. In a professional capacity, I knew some graduates who were around 28 years old. Had they been working in a different profession, there's no way that I would have accepted they were 18 without a very good look at an ID card, or passport. Not every board member applies a correction for this, when estimating ages. 2 A bar boy should have a birthday once every 365 days, like the rest of us. I suspect the frequency of declared birthdays I've heard of over the years has been higher than 1 in 365. Almost certainly not the case, with Michael's lad and I'm not intending to imply that either.

Expand However, the ID did say his BD was one day later so I spent midnight of his BD with him while I'm sure someone else spent the next night with him. LOL But, 2 nights of parties, who can blame him? Quote
