Many events happen with 'little' or no announcement

Tourism Authority of Thailand should have an events calendar for each province with a minimum of thirty days advance notice, promoting every public event. 

 

Unfortunately we only find out about many events from after action posts, such as this video.

Tightening the purse string

I've given notice that I am discontinuing sponsoring football games. 

It's been anywhere from 3,000 to 20,000 baht for a series of games. 

Enjoyed sponsoring most government and school sponsored games, most which lasted longer than just a weekend. 

 

Less enjoyment for commercial enterprises where win or lose is based on two to four games total. I'm familiar to at least five commercial football fields in the area. 

Enjoyed meeting people at all these games, but it's time to tighten my belt and spend some money on myself. 

Cataract surgery is top on my list, occasional weekend traveling

Weather alert: Potential Flash Floods, especially near waterways

To date it had been one of the hottest and driest rainy seasons I have experienced in 20 years. 

Local forecasts indicate nothing extreme: Thundery showers, scattered showers
