... not the results hoped for

TMD continues to farecast 
" Outbreaks of thunderstorm, thunderbolt with gusty winds and hails.. ," including the Sakon Nakhon Province.  Storms are most likely created due to the extreme heat.  Most weather services expect heavier rains especially Thursday and tapering off Friday. Occasional wind gusts up to 15 km-h.

Sakon Nakhon FC hosted Huai Thalaeng United in a 1-1 draw and remains in eleventh place.  There had obviously been a recent reshuffle in the starting lineup and a few noticeable injuries.
It's my opinion that the 11 meter shot awarded to Huai was a bad call.  
It was a good game, but not the results hoped for

That's how it's done in Thailand

Tree branches and bushes are used for highway hazard warning signs, creating a further hazard, as they are not very visible in the dark. This happened to be a fairly active nightlife  street with restaurants, hotels and shopping malls
Proper highway hazard warning gear should be carried by all drivers

It's a must win day for Sakon Nakhon FC. 
The team sank from 11th  to 13th in the league of 14, after Sisaket won their first game of the season (4-2 Buriram) yesterday. Nong Bua had a 0-0 draw with Surin Sugar. 
Let's hope the game will be as hot as the weather
Pool cleaning has become a daily necessity.  Overhead green tarps give the water a green appearance. Check water balances daily and vacuum the bottom daily. Most days I won't bother with filters, just suck the dirty water out and replace clean water.  The sand filter just does not impress me.
Had to buy a magnifying glass to sort through
