Stay Cool on a really hot day
Yesterday driving my motorcycle in the morning I began to feel quite dizzy. I immediately pulled over in the shade, drank some water, poured some over my head and sat down till the dizziness passed. I'm pretty sure it was heat related. If you participated in the recent waterfest, then you know, the best way to keep cool on a hot day, get wet and stand in front of a fan (or drive a motorcycle while you are wet). During these hot days my pool gets daily use Pool water is starting to warm. When it feels like a hot tub I'll be adding ice, probably later this month. It's an at least once a year event Misting fans bring some relief from the heat. If misting fans aren't in your future, hang a damp cloth over your fan. Avoid dripping water on the motor housing. Air conditioners can keep you cool of course, but they also take a bite out of your wallet. Of course drink plenty of water. Add electrolyte to your drinking habit. If you drink alcohol or coffee, drink extra water. Alcohol and coffee tend to dehydrate. If you tend to faint easily, monitor your blood pressure |

Tourists want to know Should we come, or not There is a one year moratorium on many public events due to HRH's death on 13 October 2016, lasting until late October. Royal funerals usually last seven days Some events had been cancelled, others 'subdued.' Most religious and sport functions are allowed.
in October in Sakon Nakhon??? The Royal Longboat Races and the Wax Castle Festival generally happen days before the October full Moon. This year that's October 5th. The Royal Longboat Races are a sport activity. The Wax Castle Festival has mostly religious significance At this time I am in search of information and hope to have some answers soon |
