Hot days delayed


The expected unseasonably hot days forecast for next week have been delayed by a couple of days.  I'm not complaining

In recent days some folk in the area have experienced rain, while others have not.
At my house I have seen maybe a minute of light rain during the past four days, while two miles away, wet roads and puddles.
Continued partial cloudy.  Wed-Thur-Fri likely 40C (104F)

Nothing much going on in the outer atmosphere ...

Strange and Funny





Idiot !!




Phu Phan Highway collision on wet slippery road - No deaths






Never cared for that highway. Speeding vehicles often drift into oncoming lanes when driving through curves. 
Especially hazardous when there is a light rain mixed with road dust.

My Toy Story

Previously had one of those 500 baht cameras, the pictures were poor.
Finally found a camera locally which seemed to offer better picture quality.
Called the Sport HD.  Comes with waterproof case (Ideal for songkran) and a number of mounting brackets, with quick removal screw.
It does not come with as SD card, which you have to buy seperately.


One of the first pictures after purchasing an SD card.  
Here displayed at 50%


The video quality is quite impressive too.  Mounting the camera on my helmet is a next experiement.  Should limit the shaking. 

I'll be there: Sakon Nakhon FC at Khon Kaen FC, Sunday 6 pm

Until this season Khon Kaen FC had been in the lower ranks of Division 1. 
17th of 18 teams during the 2014 season.
In this league they are faring a bit better, with two wins and two draws.

It would be super if Sakon Nakhon came away with a win, but I'm doubtful.

Even though Sakon Nakhon FC has won only one game and lost three, there's been a very obvious improvement in their team effort.  If there is no win tomorrow, possibly there will be a win during the last game of the month against Chaiyaphum at Sakon Nakhon
