What were you thinking  !??!

Recently upgraded to Windows 8.  Gotta say 'WOW."  Almost resembles my Mac.

It caused some setup changes on my blog.
Some visitors had problems viewing the blog.
Think I've solved the problem.

65% of the visitors to my blog use Internet Explorer.  

I'm not a fan of that software, but I use it now to monitor the layout of all my post.Occasionally posts look different in Explorer than Firefox or Chrome.

I've changed some settings on the blog.

Star Maker, The Sakon Nakhon Version

If the words Star Maker bring to mid Hollywood and movie stars,
then you haven't been to Sakon Nakhon
Many shops are busily repairing last year's stars or making new ones.
The shop next to Apple's Restaurant is doing brisk business at the moment


Of course those stars look much better after sunset
