"Drunk-in-charge-of-puppies" Photograph

An early end to the working day for this mechanic in Bangkok who had clearly been drinking beer for a while before I passed by one afternoon.

For puppies like these that spend their time outside with access to everything happening on the street it is just another part of the broad experience that forms their education and will hold them in good stead throughout their adulthood. In the often bustling, confusing situations that they will find themselves in they will probably cope far better than would a more cosseted pet with a much more limited background.

Too many late nights during this party season? Or perhaps more likely too many late nights playing computer games. I think this young Thai guy really was asleep as he didn’t move for ages. It was quite impressive how he managed to remain in exactly the same position without his head slumping over or his elbow slipping off his knee. Maybe we all have this talent in our youth.  

I was half-expecting him to suddenly wake up and find the tablecloth stuck to his forehead but he never did and for all I know he is still there fast asleep.

Even Superman needs to nap occasionally.
