Bigger???

Last night while eating supper again at one of the little beach restaurants my friend from New Zealand commented about something bigger. I sort of nodded agreement but he used the same phrase again and obviously expected a comment from me. Well, I asked him to repeat and he said he was tired of the biggers on the beach. I thought this was some sort of Kiwi expression for flies or something. (They call mosquitoes "mozzies".) I asked for clarification so I could respond. He said, "You know biggers, the peolple who come around with their hands out asking for money."

"Oh!" , I replied. "You mean beggars!"

I will leave tonight by overnight bus to Siem Reap which is the town near to Angkor Wat. It will be a long ride but I am taking the VIP bus which will make into sleeper seats.
