Some random thoughts.
A few facts that have been reinforced in my mind over the last couple of days:
- History always repeats itself.
- There is no smoke without fire.
- BCC needs to be exploited.
- Most farang working in Thailand are lazy.
- I no longer like the taste of beer.
- Facebook can actually be useful.
- My collar bone is slowly mending.
OK pretty random I know, but you might enjoy trying to puzzle some of these out!
Net Dead
So we had one of those days today, when the gods of TOT and out local ISP decide we need a day off, and make sure that our internet connections does not work during prime time work hours, here upon Koh Phangan.
Luckily Joakim and myself managed to get the days scheduling out of the way before things went bad, but that’s just about all we managed to get done today.

I have a very devious Son!
Leon is now one year and three months old, and I am very glad to tell you that he is already displaying signs of being every bit as slippery as his Father!

Of course, as expected the ghosts didn’t actually eat much of it, so around midnight we had the chance to eat all the left overs!
This is the spread that Nuth’s family prepared in their house (every house in the village did… Continue reading
Feeding the ghosts
Today I’m going to head out to the village for a very odd sounding religious holiday. It’s a localised thing, not something that is celebrated all over Thailand. Basically the entire village will spend the day cooking lots of food, and then they will set it all out as a feast, for the ghosts of dead family members to eat.
Once the ghosts are finished, the living people get to eat everything that is left over, personally I think it’s an excuse to have a bloody great party but who cares, I love Isaan food so I hope the ghosts are not too hungry!
