Will27 10,381 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Oh dear - and more off topic and personal comments removed. I can see this topic has not got much of a future if this continues. I don't think the topic has been related to Chiang Rai for quite a while. Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post villagefarang 15,790 Posted September 18, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted September 18, 2014 Personally I think it would be a very, very good thing if members would lead by example and post the kinds things they are most interested in reading. Setting a good positive example has got to be a good thing in Chiang Rai or anywhere. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Popular Post kevjohn 16,570 Posted September 18, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted September 18, 2014 After our day trip with VF last year and not being able to walk to the lookout on top of Phu Chi Fa, due to my 120+ kg weight, I was motivated to lose some weight. Have gone from 122 kgs down to 91 kgs at the moment, heading to 85kgs, so I feel that is a very good news and all being motivated by the desire to see the views from the lookout on top of Phu Chi Fa. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

villagefarang 15,790 Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 I am trying to convince myself this is a good thing. For the second time a neighbor dog has decided our home is a better place to bear her young than her own place of residence. She chose the exact place another dog chose a couple years back. Four pups so far but I suspect there are more to come. Our dogs have all been fixed so the pups don’t belong to them. Link to post Share on other sites
villagefarang 15,790 Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 The Pied Harriers are back for the season, cruising low over the rice fields. What a joy to watch. The terrible haze which has plagued us recently, mysteriously left today and I can see the mountains again. Two good things in my book. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post Rotweiler 507 Posted October 21, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2014 After 6 years in our present location (not exactly real boonies - we live on a major highway, our village has approx 275 residents) a major event! Until now, the village communal system pumped well water to about three-quarters of the village, the rest had to make do with their own wells. We, along with 190 other residents of the village, now have government water! The remander of the residents should get it sometime next year (according to the Chiangwat/Amphur buget for waterworks). I'm sure many of you will not consider this a big deal. It sure as heck is to us! 3 Link to post Share on other sites

wilkes 1 Posted November 3, 2014 Share Posted November 3, 2014 I know this is an old series of posts, but I came across Pomchop's list last night and it is what made me join this forum and stirred my desire to move to Thailand! Awesome list...really well written. Thank you. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

villagefarang 15,790 Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 I agree that Pomchop is a superstar when it comes to noticing and helping others to notice the simple joys of life here in the Rai. Link to post Share on other sites
