It was raining monkeys and sea otters out there tonight at about 11

It's absolutely p*ssing down in Kanchanaburi..!!

And it looks to be blasting soon. The good news is I got a lime green Winnie the Pooh Umbrella from a brave soaked street guy last night who worked the crowd huddled outside the Thermae... 100 baht! 

 

I really want a Hello Kitty one.

For once they are right 2 days solid heavy rain combined with a monumental thunderstorm  this morning that blew something up for a few hours.

 

Ah and the smell of wet dogs is permeating the air if you venture outside, whats with sitting in the rain girls ...stupid hounds

Precipitation I presume ?

More news from 'Big Joke': he banned John Fogerty for life entering Thailand after the artist announced plans to present a remix of "Have you ever seen the rain" in a Bangkok concert. BJ considers this as an attempt to tarnish the country's image.

Patts is in for another hammering judging by the clouds rolling over now.............

It's arrived - the house is shuddering with the thunder; rain sheeting it down - I said 'sheeting'.  Bye-bye beach.
