Toqs Life in Thailand

Enjoying my retirement and life in Thailand

LUCKY NUMBERS

While a backhoe operator was working on digging out an area to install a pond he ran across what the village seems to believe to be two very old boats that were buried in the ground.  Upon inspection everyone came to the conclusion that the boats were between 150 and 200 years old.  This was a lucky find so everyone gathered to bless the boats and see if they could find some lucky lottery numbers written or scratched into the wood.. Would you believe.

Flowers were laid on the ground and the boats to try and insure the best luck for finding  good numbers.  As you can see from the amount of flowers placed that the people are really serious.

Now that the flowers are place and the prayers said it is time to start looking for the numbers. As the people look they place pieces of  gold leaf on the spots where they believe to of  found lucky numbers. If you look and use a little imagination you can see some numbers

Looks like 070 and 160 are the lucky numbers Choa found.  I wish him luck
