News Forum - Phuket gears up for international tourism event
People say that and I have no desire to spend any time in Patong And the roads can't handle the infrastructure Although that pretty much happens all over the world But I've been going to Phuket for 20 years and places like Kamala and Karon, Rawai are almost exactly how they were 20 years ago -

News Forum - Thai student injured in playground scuffle, parents seek justice
I full agree with you that there should be some sort of responsibility. But what about the school? What responsibility has the school taken as this happend within the school premises. Were those boys paying for a school game or tournament? Or were they training under the superison of the school coach? What actions has been taken from the responsibiliy of the school? As such the article is not clear and there are many unanswered questions. -

Life in the Isaan Boonies.
Snaps in the muddy boonies here. Monday 16th September. It has been a wet spell. The ponds are full, the trees well watered and the farm roads completely muddied. Outside the farm house. Main road to Bangkok. Truck can't get down to load the logs. Been stuck three times recently. Can't make out what is going on on the south part of Bandung. They are putting in a central barrier along the 2096 road. t was organised chaos at the number 4 market. I'm not against dual carriageways. But forcing vehicles to continually do 'U turns, is just plain daft. Is there money to waste here? Just down the way there is Tesco and Big C. Any cars or lorries wanting to exit Tesco, and go to town, has to do a U. And worse. If a vehicle comes out of Big C and wants to head south, they have to U turn at the main road junction. Looking north towards Bandung. Had just seen Mildred off to school when I noticed a very smart truck outside Guy's Supermarket on the outskirts of the village. There is a new lady coming around selling meat. Every morning at about seven. Yum yum. Mrs Snaps had to go to the bank to get out some dosh to buy gold. But!! Her ID card had expired, and that meant a trip to the town government office. While she was in there I had a mooch around. Had a wander in the town park. Don't keep the grass cut. I bought a wall fan for the bedroom at the Bus station. On me way back the water fountain had been turned on. There are some small fish in the pond. Didn't have any food with me. What a fantastic tree! Also in Bandung, work is still underway putting in the pipes. They dig up the pavement and just leave it for a week or so. Along from Mrs Snap's bank. The house next door, but one, in our soi is taking shape. With this block, there is no need for cement. So laying the rows is fast. The fast food take away on the main drag has gone. The Mrs - and she should know - says it is gonna be a proper restaurant. Our village will be the number one place to stop when going to Udon or Nong Khai. Creepers taking over. Road to village from farms. The kittens are getting out and about. We have; LaLa, Wagger and Mimi. It has been wet lately. Udon has had its fair share. But the village has been spared the worst of it. The under-road pipe leading from the paddy to the palm farm has been smashed. As soon as the remaining logs have gone, I'll sort it out. +++++ Only Man City, out of the seven professional leagues have a 100% record. Owls simply must to better. Was that first 4-0 game a rogue result? My tip for the top - WBA - are; well, top. Aveley Village get bundled out of the FA Cup. Orient win away. Toffeez are doomed. Didn't I say that Sinner would win the tennis! +++++ Mrs Snaps is doing me a cup of Rosy. Been waiting 30 minutes for it. Fed up with whistling. I had one of those little yellow chickens a while back. When I wanted a cup of tea or coffee, I would make it squark a few times. Didn't always immediately get me cuppa, but better than having to continually whistle. However, Mrs Snaps was sleeping and I gave it a few squarks next to her ear. Next thing you know it's been chopped up. Tried to glue it back together. But never the same again. Can get them in the 20 baht shop. Will get one next trip. Run out of cheese. No trips planned for Udon, so it's Lazada for a couple of kilos of best Cheddar. Mildred only has three weeks to go until her annual school holiday. Simply great. And it's her birthday next month. She would like an 'ipad'. Apple at 40k. Levono do a top notch one for 6k. Or, we can get one at the number 4 market for around 2k. No guarantee with those though. We will see. Still doing my bathroom yoga. Been at it now for all this year. Paying dividends; big time. The kittens are making friends with Robert and Oscar. Robert wants to play games with them, and Oscar just lick them. Got me tea. Just arrived. Whistled for it at eight. Now 9-45. Teaching these Thai women can be hard work. They don't seem to able to master even the most basic stuff. I do dislike, no it's more than that, hate. What am I on about? Plastic bank notes. I find they are so slippery that they slide out of yer pocket. Had a 1000 baht one and a few 20s, in me pocket yesterday, Today; gone! Have some great pics of the farm. Next post. Thanks for visiting. Until the next time; bye y'all. A bit of nature's magic.
