191126 Your phone knows where you've been

Most days I do local shopping I don't carry my mobile phone.  

Long journeys I take my phone with me and know exactly what it's doing:  It's listening in and taking note of all the places I've been.

Have no doubt. 

Log on to google, open google maps, then open the menu on the left side. Scroll down and click on your timeline.

On November 19 I traveled to Sawang Daen Din. Google even discovered some of my photography that day and added them to the timeline.

November 22 I traveled to the University to watch another football game with a stopover at Udomchai Electric.  Google Maps  noted after the game  I stopped in at the Champions bar.  Went home for a moment then off for some fun at the football field three minutes from my house

A whole year of travel is available for scrutiny. so why do we need TM30?

"Double your pleasure, double your fun" FOOTBALL

Sakon Nakhon A has their first game of the Phu Phan Cup after cancellation of their first game when Ubon dropped out of the competition.  Plenty of familiar faces. Can they repeat last year's victory ?
The A team faces Bueng Kan who lost a first game to Roi Et last Wednesday.

Game starts at 15:00 at Ratchaphruek Stadium Sakon Nakhon Rajabhat University 17.190449, 104.093479

After the Phu Phan Cup game I may have a few hours to make my way to another game at the Sanfun Stadium.  Game starts at 7pm.  Think this game is for a trophy.

Chilly morning. 05:30. 
Made me remember the song "Baby it's cold outside."  
Stumbled on a newer 'political correct version and of course a controversy.
Here's just a few. You can find plenty more on Youtube. Dean Martin, Dolly Parton, Rod Stewart, Frank Sinatra, and plenty more to choose from

The new version
