One crock was killed and 2 more were recapture. Not enough to deal with the flooding now you have these things swimming around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance of that happening... Here in Chumphon the rain started in torrents at about 6 am and although it has lessened now... it still persists.

Rhys Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 All the best, a little damage to the roof, leaky, just a wet floor otherwise ok.... the canal level is back to normal. This means it is not level with the street. The soi off the main roads of course are flooded. Be strong... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
