Mystery Snack

Anyone know what this is called?  It's about 6 cm long and 3 - 4 cm wide.  You eat it.  It is boiled and tastes slightly like cold boiled potatoes.

I'm a bit busy right now.....

I'm a bit busy right now so using 3 screens really helps to keep track of everything.

Mushroom of some sort

Found these growing at the side of my house - don't know what they are, and didn't attempt to eat them, but very interested that they came up from nowhere.   Does anyone know what they are called?

Leaving Singapore

Fallen Palm branch

 Came home the other day to find that this fallen Palm branch was hanging from my internet wire, which runs into the car port.  It hung there for several days whilst I thought about what to do. (Never a man around when you need one!)  I couldn't lift it off - they are soooooo heavy.  I didn't know how to cut it - secateurs make no impact, nor do sheers, if I hacked away with my machete type knife I would probably break the internet connection.  Finally some men came to clean the air con machines and I asked them to get it down so at least it is now on the ground. I will have to drag it to the end of the road, together with an even bigger branch that has just fallen and throw it on the waste ground where everyone puts their garden waste.

Heading for Singapore

Bangkok Traffic

In a traffic jam on the expressway recently.  Just stopped cars as far as the eye could see.  Eventually got out of the jam.  Would it have been quicker to use a normal road instead of the expressway?

One benefit though, I had time to look around at the rapidly changing Bangkok skyline.

This is obviously one random shot of the Bangkok skyline, it would have been great to have a 360 degree view.

Bang Orn's retirement dinner

Bang Orn retires this month so the school held a retirement "do".  Several of my  friends came along too

Part of the celebration is to pour water over the hands of the person retiring, and to bless them.
