Aged 83 the only normal activity I have given up is driving because I felt my reaction time was declining. All else as usual but at a slower pace.

Mammoth madness: Runaway elephant sparks chaos in Phuket
As usual not much sympathy here or in the Thai media for the elephant, only reports of frightened people running in all directions. Utterly pathetic. The cruel way elephants are treated in Thailand is a national disgrace.

Bored of Bangkok... Any advice to an alternative place to live?
What I said was in PP the people are friendly and the nightlife is entertaining, as was the case in Bangkok 30 plus years ago. Central Bangkok has always been well developed, as it was when I first arrived here in 1962.

Bored of Bangkok... Any advice to an alternative place to live?
