"Mr. Songkran was previously the subject of an arrest warrant in relation to an attempted murder case in Chonburi."

So the Thai police did not follow up on the previous arrest warrant, and now a person has died […]

I always refer to the Christmas break as the summer break, even though I haven't lived in the southern hemisphere for years now.

Navigation is made easy. We found a location we wanted using any platform, then shared it to Geo Cache and opened it in Organic Maps. Arranged everything in order and the days itinery is complete. If you have tried to do a large route with plenty of stops on Google Maps, you will know that it is […]

There is a nice art gallery on the north side of Khao Yai. It is called Khao Yai Art Museum. Free entry and lots of interesting work, paintings and sculptures, both inside and out. We were there an hour or more, including a cup of coffee.

I really like these […]

Great short motorbike tour. Starting in Rayong, up to Khao Yai on highway 304, and then across the top of the park. Two nights glamping then through the park, stop in Bang Saen, and then home. This is the first big ride for the Triumph ST900 and it was great.

Sometimes you just have to admire skill. This bus driver reverse parked into the space. I take my hat off.

I was thinking about ways to visualize just how insanely much money a billionaire owns. What I came up with now is using length: let's say 1,000€ is 1 millimeter. Each millimeter counts.

So most people go through their daily lives with a finger's width or less (1 centimeter is 10,000€). Even […]

Hanna didn't want to give up her nest so we had to find a solution.

Hutchi has a new trick. Laying on the landing when I am getting ready for work. Every time I go up or down the stairs, he gets a quick pat.

I was at a thanks giving dinner last night and an older american chap came up to wish me a happy thanks giving. I asked him where did the tradition come from? He said, with no expression, "We are celebrating when the local people and the pilgrims had dinner together after a good harvest.... I […]

The territory is organised now, and the border disputes have finished. I hope Thailand and Cambodia can be as sensible as my cats.

Never wash the bike before going on a ride. The BBQ chicken was good though.

Haesu has had this toy since she was born 5 years ago. It used to have a stick and string attached and resembled some kind of animal. She still carries it around and makes loud noises to make sure we know. I guess I'll have to keep stitching it together no matter how yuck it gets.

I don't know how Hannah can be comfortable like that. I turned the nest around so she would use the less damaged bit, but she just turned herself as well, so I guess she has destroyed it to perfection.

I bit of advice. Don't listen to Tim Minchin with headphones on in public.

From a 2016 article commemorating its 50th anniversary:

If I ever return to Australia, doubtful, I will miss the coffee shop cats. I have no idea why they are not allowed there.

My mother-in-law has had to go into hospital, so we visited her. For fuck's sake. The beds are so close together that I can barely get in to hug her. People are sleeping on the ground next to the beds to look after their loved ones.

There are beds in the corridors for when there not enough […]
