The rumour is that they will build a large apartment block.. No idea why because all the ones in this part of town are empty. It hasn't flooded here for a couple of years due to The Government doing whatever The Government did, so perhaps they felt safe to kick us out and build on it. I have been very happy here. Some of my friends are out and about looking for similar areas to move to. I'll just tag along when they have things sorted... Earlier on tonight they said there was a place renting land at 500 Baht a month !!! Lush !! 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I posted earlier I had a problem with my PC...The data cable between the keyboard and screen had been infected with the Coprolalia Virus which caused me to type random 4 letter expletives. I washed it out with soap and water like my Mum used to do and it seems to have fixed the problem apart from the the occasional f**k-shit-cock-arse bursting out whilst it dries out ....... 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boydeste Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) Rain has baited, so on the way home, happened past a Domino pizza, not had one for ages. 11.99 for a large mighty meaty. See how it turns out. Only 10 minutes to wait, then home with a bottle of red Edit only 3 mins Edited August 5, 2023 by boydeste 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horizondave Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Sitting on the balcony of my hotel room in Pefkos, Rhodes watching a few planes go high above us. I am also looking for the Perseids meteors, they have been hitting our atmosphere since about 24 July but will be hitting around 60 an hour from 08-14 August. Saw 3 last night and so far, two tonight. Kataleya really excited, helps to have a really clear sky. Retiring now though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maipenrai Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Worked again last night, woke up around 1145 to another gorgeous day - sunny and breezy with just a hint of woodsmoke smell in the air - really starting to wonder why I am working this night job and wasting the nicest summer we've had in years, seems I am either recovering from the previous night's work or resting up for the next and now we have cooler and wetter weather forecast for my next days off. I've already committed to seeing this year's employment out but I think I will either scale it back a lot next year or just quit it completely and do some summertime travel for a change. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a personal note: During that time everybody in the area I live have received eviction notices in the form of two bloody great signs for all to see. I already have 3 alternatives lined up so no problem for me but my friends are struggling ... Hope it goes well for all of you mate. Life can be fucking shit at time’s. And it’s fucking shit for me currently. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowadays I just think of happy times together, which is what you are currently creating. What hits me quite hard are random thoughts of those friends in the Army that didn't make it. Yeh, life is shit but we owe it to them to keep going and have a full life even if it isn't always happy! 2 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very wise words, I have buried both my parents and a few of my best mates in the last few years.

Jan is all I have,and I’m going to have to bury her next to her 18 year old daughter Jenny. f**k me, not looking forward to that. It’s why my counselor is so concerned about me. She worries I’m going to sell destruct. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambo Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I was trying to service a tap (some may prefer faucet). But i couldn't get it apart, now the plan is changing the tap - not cheap for a kitchen mixer tap. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live a solitary life through choice but when I have the need to share problems I have my sons and daughter. To be without them I don't know how I could manage the rough times. When this stage of your life is over you just have to concentrate on creating a new life for yourself ...Easy Eh??? 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJSP Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Following on from an unexpected roadside haul last week in Dorset, my wife sourced the net this week and concluded that mushroom season had come earlier due to the wet weather. We duely headed out today to the Forest of Dean on the hunt, alas, not much success foraging. Some old stuff and a few unedibles that’s it for now as off to Thailand in a few days so we’ll check back in early September 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are prone to corrosion, I had to cut my sink mixer tap off with a grinding disk and drop it out the bottom the last time I changed it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
