    It wasn't an intentional pun, the frog business is booming and awaiting expansion next year when i return.

    Done my research and for a nominal outlay(few hundred quid) the expansion process will keep the blood suckers in clover for the rest of their eternal.

    Nice update. I'd have a rod in the pond just for kicks. Any size to anything in there and what all do you have in the pond. Just curious as I may do a small pond or something with the creek in back of the Laos house.

    I thought so also, cheers.

    Not bad quality pics for a drone, not that I'm an expert on quality pics

    The pond was initially dug out to raise the house land and road to prevent flooding in the rainy season.

    It's at least a rai in size and 10 feet deep, home to plenty of fish as they breed them as another side line.

    Tried one once barbecued and to be fair it just tasted of stagnated water.

    The frog farm is taking off now, expect an update with pics shortly.
