[singlepic id=810 h=250 w=250 float=left] Thai people still throw rubbish everywhere . When they clean there houses they just dump the rubbish outside & let it accumulate. Occasionally they have a purge and sell what rubbish they can to the recycling centre. This is my neighbours house to give an example of what isis like living next to a Thai family.
Thailand make the UK look spotless by comparison.
Chopped the tree next to the house to create a new covered garden area

We have now had 3 days of Rain. I have spent the last two days cutting down the weeds again down on the farm. Today I have been attempting to subtitle some of my films.
Cycled to Fao Rai today in my quest to visit all the adjacent amphoe. It took me two hours to cover the 40k there and then I spent 30-40 mins looking around and taking photographs. Like this one of the main temple.
