JUNE 2013




The snake that did not count


The snake that did not count , because it was not in my garden. Heard a cat hissing quite loud and went to have a look.
Outside my wall was a black and white snake about 2 inch in diameter and 1,5 meter long. He was trying to attack just lay there.  Shoo the cat away and the snake quickly shot over a path and into a field.
Legs the dog is probably gone but Butts is still sliding on his ass.
Rain have started but nothing spectacular and warmer and more mosquitoes then I remember from the years before. I like the cloudy and rainy days cools it down and smells so good. Only thing is that most rains interfere with tv reception , 5 laps left and exciting off goes the tv , bummer. Internet no problem unless a tree or ligtning hit the cables.   
Garden is growing like hell maybe a bit to much ,cutting and trimming , my gate and fence will be over grown otherwise.
I do not know what is wrong with the VAT here we have now had 21 different monks,
since I moved in. Some of them are ok but most are very bland.
Nong Khai is getting a new big department store BIG C and now I think that is going to make it more difficult for the Laotians to get anything like it. Maybe the Chinese or Vietnamese would try but I don`t  think so..
Weekends and paydays NK is full of Lao people.
The people from Laos want to come here for shopping a look around and the ones who can afford it , spend the weekend and play golf.
At least you can drive around her and also find parking space that is more then you can do there. More and more cars are sold and mainly financed I don`t understand how they can do it with their salaries, more cars are shipped there the to NK.
