    • I was severely reprimanded by police for running after a 1000baht note which was blowing away in the breeze and attempting to stop it with the sole of my foot. What was ironic was that I knew this would cause offence but was more concerned about the loss of cash. The Kings head is on the note and the foot isd the dirtiest part of the human body. So treat banknotes in Thailand with respect
