After my heart-pounding daily workout it was time to say good morning to the daughter.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 03:46 PM

I then decided to take a motorcycle ride around and visit the new 'mooban' next to ours.

Still under construction with many Burmese workers present.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 03:50 PM

This boss on the construction site comes over to me and goes nuts. He starts to yell that it is dangerous and I can not shoot photos. I started to argue but seeing as how this is the second time that they have kicked me out, I left...

Here he is waiting for replacements to help him out. I shot this from the hip as he kept telling me to stop.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 03:52 PM

Before leaving, I did manage to get a 'Thai knickers' shot.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 03:55 PM

Now time to go cruising throughout the village and see what I could capture.

This Thai motorcylist on his Yamaha dirt bike had just recieved a trophy.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 03:57 PM

Since the Thailand elections are just around the corner the politician teams are out in force.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 03:59 PM

On the way back to home I was lucky enough to capture the following scenes. Motorcycle racing on the streets of Bangkok is popular and lucrative for some.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 04:01 PM

His partner in crime.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 04:02 PM

And naturally the boss oversees the operation.

**hillbilly** · 12-06-2011, 04:03 PM

Until next time that is my adventure for today. Now what do you have to show for your day's work?

You obviously weren't wearing protective flip-flops, like his workers.

With all of AO's mouth watering foods being posted in the Kitchen, I decided to make my on tuna salad concoction and post.

Tuna Salad: Tuna salad with tuna steak, red leafed & iceburg lettuces, tomatoes, purple skinned onion, some Italian seasoning, course ground black pepper, and Extra Virgin Olive Oil Classic Balsamic Vinaigette dressing. Also had linguini with cheese and mushroom sauce as the main meal but no pictures as it didn't really last too long. "A meal fit for a king".

Ok now this is the south side of the Thames just before you enter the Blackwall Tunnell ,, just look at ALL those height warning signs ,,,,,,,,,,and yes our foreign friends manage to block our tunnell on a weekly basis

**natalie8** · 21-06-2011, 01:00 AM

Nice shot Nigel.

**jizzybloke** · 21-06-2011, 01:02 AM

I was through that at 6:30ish this morning

Just out of view ^^ there is an electronic sign stating how many over-heights and breakdowns inside the tunnel in the last 28 or 30 days, it's usually about 50 of each

**natalie8** · 21-06-2011, 01:04 AM

Shit, seriously??? Who are the culprits?

**jizzybloke** · 21-06-2011, 01:08 AM

All sorts from a simple puncture to an engine fire, to be fair they usually get it cleared fairly quickly but it doesn't take long for massive tailbacks to build up

The over-height lorry drivers that cock everything up for everyone else (i've been told) face hefty fines, Nigel can you confirm that?

Google is your friend

Fine isn't that much at £60 but 3 points on your license. Don't know what happens with foreign drivers?

Don,t know about that Jizz as in 37 years of driving lorries I have never cocked anything up ( well not to do with the lorries ) infact I used to take my cartransporter empty through that Northbound pipe no bother allthough the top deck used to rattle the ol poles on the bends lol .

Hi Natt nice to see you back and thanks for the comment ,,, were off to Scotland next week and if all goes well I,m gonna do a pic thread on it , keep an eye out .

**natalie8** · 21-06-2011, 11:04 AM
