Another lazy happy day!

[BritManToo]

Was woken up at 4am by my son and wife running in from the upstairs patio (where they had been camping in a tent).

The rain was pouring down (rather odd for February in CM)

 

Couldn't get back to sleep so now lying on the sofa with a cup of tea and a packet of ginger nuts, browsing the forum, reading a book on my Kindle (wormhole mana power), listening to the rain pounding on the car port roof. Wife sitting on the floor playing with lottery numbers, teen son still in bed.

 

It's actually quite nice, maybe I'll get up and make another cup of tea.

Contemplating what non-Brits or Antipodeans will make of your ginger nuts.

Please, what does that entail, and lead to?

I got caught in the downpour yesterday evening as I made my way back to my hotel.  Tourists running in all directions trying to keep dry.  As for me, it's only rain and warm rain at that.  So I walked home at my normal pace, totally soaked but zero-stressed 🙂 No problems at all, better than UK rain!

Lets hope it clears the air up for a few days ,and it will save watering the garden,

We had the same here in Ayutthaya on early Tues morning after several months without rain.

The cool weather stayed for a couple of days but now sticky and threatening rain most days, looking like rainy season coming early this year ?

Hoping for a spot of rain (forecasted) outselves, though a bit sunny out there now.  Working on 2nd cup of coffee now.

 

My bi-atchs (wife & dog) still sleeping next to me 🙄

 

Air purifiers doing their thing, and don't need ACs on yet, though may turn on soon to knock the RH down.   Just another beautiful day in the hood of coconuts & pineapples.

 

 

Got some hockey pucks (thick cut beef tenderloins) thawed out , along with picanha (rump) cap also thawed out, as craving some roast beef.

 

Rendered down the fat (600gr of 1600gr cap) yesterday for some tallow to hold me over for a month or so.

I commented to my GF about the unseasonal rain we have had the last two or three days here in Samui. February and March usually dry as a bone.

She told me it's the monsoon coming. I thought that was the later part of April, after Songkran.

 

it's been nice though with the cooler night time temperatures. Like free air con.

I see someone put a jealous emoji on your comment. Some people will never be happy.

With nearly 100 posts a day, obviously you haven't been out of your mums basement for months.

 

Using youtube again for your travel stories?

I can send photos to your pm with a callumwk written on paper if you like.

 

You need to get out more. Mum jokes are so 1985.

Just had a Manchurian candidate moment , and have an overwhelming urge to immediately seek out some Yorkshire tea-bags (extra strong) and ginger nuts (got to be McVities) at probably villa market.

Thanks for that BritManToo...👍

Right, clear from Britman's posts that he has made a good life for himself.

Gotta figure some will be jealous.

PM2 0? Seems too good to be true.Must be one heluva purifier.

Think we had a bit of rain overnight, as grass was a bit more wet than to be expected from morning dew.   Although PM2.5 @  0 to 3 isn't rare at all.

 

Reported @ 16 µg/m³outside now.

House is airtight, and didn't even need to ACs to assist.  Xiaomi air purifiers, original, and V2.   Think they have a V4 now, with info display.

 

2 handle 105+m² with ease, and way more than rated for.

I'm in a resort near Khao Yai National Park at the moment. 5 day trip to see some family and arrange a bit of building work on a relative's house. 

 

Weather is absolutely beautiful. Very sunny but a bit of a breeze. Have tried to go for a bit of a route march this morning but keep encountering stray dogs.

 

Sat outside having a coffee contemplating what to have for lunch. A very pleasant Sunday so far.

High carb, I don't eat them.

 

Let me recommend pork rinds. Rich source of collagen, restores cartilage.

 

It may help your back, after all that mop pushing.
