Food, weather, local pub, sporting event?

Spending time in Thailand reminds me how lucky I was to be born in the UK. Sorry, but that's reality.

Strangely enough, I've been doing exactly that since Jan 2014 in Devon. Diverted the river too so as not to pollute it when we come to reconstruct the main river channel.

have you looked beneath the surface?

If I looked beneath the surface of most things I'd have a shock.

Rivers, Women, Thailand etc.

I just like the peace and quiet of sitting by a river away from crowds.
