Nothing else to do but walk the 2 km's back to my house,
:shock: :shock: i think maybe your guesstimates may be a bit low :D :D :D :D
It's a circular route of about 10kms but as the crow flies I was no more than 2kms from my home. What was so pleasing though, was the genuine friendship of people that I didn't know other than the occasional wave/smie or "Sawadee Khup" exchange from previous days, offering to help.

Ah i didnt think of that :oops: :oops:
Yes it is surprising they also smile broadly at us when we ride our bikes and nod if they are on bicycles and there are a lot of cyclists around Pranburi/Paknam pran and we have been invited for coffee and breakfast by a Biking group

Over the last few weeks I was doing a 15 odd km cycle route around the area near to Black Mountain Golf in the late afternoon and would get a friendly nod or wave from the Thai cyclists doing the same.

My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?
