Every evening, at 17.00, my mother in law goes dancing. She is nearly 70. Each day she wears a different colour polo shirt-pink, orange, gree, blue etc. This is the grannies dance gals.
This week is special. There are basketball matches and the teams have cheerleaders, too. All the teams have granny cheerleaders. The Thais have solved the difficulty of getting the ball in the net by having a keeper who stands on a chair with a bamboo basket which she waves around to catch the ball!
Ma is in the blue shirt on the right!
