    More surprising is that the fact that James May apparently has a Finnish love-child.

    I was only joking

        Hey, TG, Why do you have so many 55555s in your posts? I have watched and thought it would become clear to me over time. But...it hasn't. So please shed some light on this so I don't feel so dense.

            In Thai language, the number "5" is pronounced like "ha". So, 555 is ha ha ha.

            Kind of like LOL in English. 🙂

                Straightup I thought it because she was posting on an international phone of some sort. Holy crap I've probably thought that for years if not a decade.

                  TG shared this several months ago. Pay attention, boys!

                  Don't worry. TG, I'll whip them into shape and have them paying attention to all your posts.

                            Crap. There isn't.

                            https://www.into-asia.com/thai_language/reference/numbers.php

                            Interesting that zero is pronounced 'soon'. I think our politicians are speaking Thai.

                            'Mr. President, when will we see results?'

                            'Soon'.

                                In various Chinese dialects, the number 8 often has a pronunciation that is closest to the “ba” sound.

                                    Yep, in Taiwan, Fathers day is August 8.

                                    Month = 8
                                    Day = 8

                                    Pronounced: ba ba (or close to papa). So that is why is it fathers day on that date!!
