An Update!

No Drone! Sorry!

Ha ha, I love the description 'circle turns'!
I'll just translate: In proper English (British English of course) it's called 'a roundabout'.  I get the impression you don't have them in the colonies yet.
Are there other countries that don't have roundabouts I wonder?

Did enjoy Pizza hut, taste ok?

The Hut was very good. Just as I remembered from my childhood. And they delivered to the hotel, double bonus! (But the driver drops it down in the lobby and leaves, so he lost his 100 baht tip!)

I reckon it's busted.....

Drone is fine. Soon I will take it to the job site.

Still in the middle of my wife`s fathers funeral- which lasts 5 days- meaning we keep spending money to feed everyone over and over again. Seems backwards to me.

All commercial-chain pizza joints aren't terribly desirable. Actually, they can't suck enough.

Should only apply if one is a true pizza snob.

Wouldn't you not apply if you are a true pizza snob? I think

 

And although I am the foremost pizza expert on this forum

I actually don't mind Pizza Company the times we take the kids to it when they were younger 

Don't love it, but not the worst I have had 

 

The thin crust pepperoni is ok

Yes, a considerable amount of understanding needed. 😉

There is the village insurance that should be paying out also.

Well that would be nice.

No one is telling me anything as I stand in the shadows I attempted to sweep up the food prep area that had food and trash all over the floor, and was stopped due to some tradition where they clean it up after the body is burned. So I looked like a fool. I plan on just hiding in my room now....

Not heard of the floor cleaning thing.

Of the two funerals I've been to, after a few hours I went back to the hotel. It was all too chaotic.

It is shocking how much a funeral and the ensuing events/days are in Thailand 

 

For a "poor" country, it is completely out of whack, IMO

I avoid funerals whenever possible, not being disrespectful, just can't abide all the loud music, eating and drinking which as Marc says, seems out of whack.  If I were in Ireland I'd expect a wake to be similar but not go on and on for days ... or does it?

A group of four men who looked dressed to go to work later, had their breakfast here, did not bother to toss any of their trash with trash cans a few feet away, and not pay any respects. I refuse to clean up any more tables. The women work hard here, all the men just sit around for the most part.

Not video worthy- but news worthy!

We were framed!

With that use of ladder trusses I assume a flat roof Greg?  C-section steel beams are more commonly used, so I'm curious as to this choice of roof support.

Could they be be professional gate crashers? There are those who turn up at funerals for the free food and drink.
