what's your thing with construction and demolition Pat?

The closest you've come to a 9-5 is playing Dolly Parton at wedding receptions

Lombard St. San Francisco

Good one. I was just talking about Lombard st. last night. I drove down there in 95 I drove cross country from Maryland did 10,000 mile in three weeks.

I walked that street in 84, it never changes eh.

Possibly the box of Meccano I had from the age of 7, train sets, stickle bricks, etc.....and yes, I've played Dolly Parton...when I was a drag queen

Now that's a big tree. Shame they put a big whole in it.
On our big road trip back in 1995

Could be a descendant of Hemingway's cats in Key west

Redruth railway station, near my dads in Cornwall. complete with house for the station cat

Hector the cat has his own facebook page, although I'm dubious if it's really him

Chongnonsee sky train station. The new Condo is being built directly in front of the one behind, soon it will completely block out the original condos view. Worse still is the fookin thing is so close that a fart will be heard when taking a dump. Be aware when purchasing Condos in Bangkok that your once great view could get fucked over.

Thais like to boast about not complaining, jai yen yen and kreng jai. It's the reason they get fucked over by their own, and recieve a shoddy service so often.

An ex GF of mine called up true for extra calls/data one week before the end of the month, as she'd reached her limit. They said it was ok and would be active within an hour. She didn't recieve it but still happily paid for it that month. She didn't even call them back 2hrs later to ask where it was!
And she'd really needed to call home for some money off her mum! She used my phone!

Awsome, l did a Bad Lands trip through North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming and all leading to and from home. It reminds me that it's time for another break in the action. Thanks for the reminder as sometimes I get lost in the here and now part of life.

Could be here today......gone tomorrow.

Anyone tried these? Are they worth the price and marathon microwave time?

**Pragmatic** · 10-10-2017, 03:14 PM

About 2 years ago I went to Chao Lao Beach. I took photo's of the cycle lanes. Went again a few days ago and things ain't any better. In fact they're worse. It seems just about every tree is a designated rubbish bin these days.

Any rubbish bins about?

Fun day

She wanted to try some, but I managed to convince her not to as she was staying over.

Horrific evening avoided, just.....

**Chittychangchang** · 11-10-2017, 03:56 AM

I see it but i don't believe it!

Sprouts covered in chilli and nam pla, that's my idea of purgatory

**DJ Pat** · 11-10-2017, 04:36 AM

I doubt they are aware of legend that befalls this foul flatulence inducing veggie. Probably assumed it's a smaller version of regular spring greens.

I bet there was a lot left over for the staff to take home....

Good morning Hua Hin this morning.

**Maanaam** · 11-10-2017, 09:49 AM

From our room. Very nice hotel, right on the beach. Had both American and Continental breakfasts this morning...perfection.

Photo credit me. You'll see that Mrs Naam is the photographer in this family.

Was it designed on the German beach fortifications of World War 2?

Bit of tall poppy syndrome/jealousy colouring your view Lulu?
No scrub here, just manicured lawns. No outer hedge either, but a very neat seawall, and certainly not 50 metres away. Mind you, the gated entrance is about 80 metres to the main reception building, driving down a tree-lined road.
I don't know who designed it, but it has magnificent grounds and the buildings are luxurious.
With the old-fashioned Thai clothing and solar topee-hatted outside staff (the pool boys, the gateman, the parking attendants, the beach attendants etc, plus the huge statue of Krut on the roof, Mrs Naam suspects this establisment may belong to the King. It's certainly fit for a king.

Off to afternoon tea in the Museum Room now...tata.

And again....the American breakfast buffet, with it's perfect bacon (best bacon I've had anywhere and a million miles above the wafer thin crap from tesco or BigC) was great, but I couldn't resist the Continental breakfast too...ciabata with 3 cheeses and salami, salted butter of course, croissant with smoked salmon and herbed cream cheese. Absolutely delightful.
I suppose with your simple mind you'll need pictures to understand it all...coming soon.
Tootleloo.

Mental Note: Manfan Van Streibenhoff takes lighthearted comments a tad seriously.

Maybe it's the atmosphere in the tearoom.

**DJ Pat** · 11-10-2017, 02:46 PM

The ghosts of many farang teflers still haunt this building, at certain times they even stand outside smoking
