Losing a phone and looking for a fortune teller

Yesterday somebody stole Rat's (Waree's sister) mobile phone. It was an expensive one camera and all for her eldest son Edt (who has five fingers on one hand) to stay in touch when he is at technical college in Nong Khai. She can afford it as her husband Adt is working as a farm labourer in Israel.

So today we had to go to a Wat near Nong Khai about 40kms away to see a monk who for 1 baht (about 3 cents) will tell your fortune and who we hoped would tell Rat who had stolen her phone. Unfortunately the Wat appeared to be abandoned so we didn't find out who stole the phone. I tried to help by looking into the past with the aid of the silver side of an old CD but I could only identify the perpetrator as being dark and having black hair, which applies to almost everybody in the village so Rat would not reward my efforts.

Today I frightened several babies. Its really strange as soon as they see the huge white bloated farang they burst into tears. Obviously they think I am a pii (ghost). Maybe I am.
