What would you like to do?

If I share that my clarinet piano and bricklaying is worse than swimming or spelling , it's time for a new challenge.

Chewing over a few ideas, in no particular order

Learning to properly read mandarin
Growing white tea
Snake Identification
Cycling bit more around Yunnan-Vietnam borderlands
Burma by motorbike can foreigners buy or take aThai one easily, it's a real hassle in Bokeo Lao ?
A full lap of Oz
Study Wood scuplture and gemutlichkeit in the Salzkammergut

Great you stop work drink and chasing women there's lots of leisure

Do have a secret ambition a dream project ,journey , buid a yacht or a yurt

Yurt's are not difficult to build.
There was a demo at our local country show not long back.

Who's the guy who built a "resort" of yurts or wigwams?...The guy who kept giving them to his ex-wives and bedding the "chamber maids"...

Haven't heard from him for some time...

Had some smurfs frolicking on his home stamp...

He's still active in TV (last post there 30/9, last post here one year ago), and I believe he's working (school) in Myanmar.

Yes. He'd done several ventures at the airport, all of which appeared to have been successful, until put into the sole management of ex wives.

I did like Simon 43's stories of his escapades with his ex wives and hotels,
plus his trying to sort out his ham radio and teaching in Laos and Burma,top bloke.

Yes Simon , was Phuket Richard someone else, seem to recall hilarius tales of snotyy wives guests and still a great sense of humour , perhaps thats what I need to do is hone my wits ready for the grim reaper.

While I can recall tiny details of my childhood wedding, schooldays I cannot find my spex or screwdriver or coffee mug most days.

Realized in this era of Atms password router settings , check in times , 90 day reports being innumerate means you need a woman who can count on.Many fols hereabouts and esp TV berate the little people for how dumb they are and bad at business , yet I've never ever been given too much change !
