    Central Isaan is awash with water at present. after making the
    sweeping turn off to the right at Saraburi and heading deeper into
    Issaan it's evident that there has been ample rain lately.The
    Lamtakhong dam is probably 80% full now. Past Khoraat and on up
    Highway 2 the roadside ditches are full and people are fishing in
    them, schools are out now and children are making the most of their
    watery world, greenery is everywhere, very pleasing to see, and the
    rice fields as far as the eye can see are high with rice, which seems
    to occupy every available square inch. The countryside on each side of
    the road off to Phrathai seems to be even greener if that is possible.
    buffaloes and cows seem to cruise through grass which in some places
    is up to their shoulders. the rivers and creeks are full and there is
    no sign of the dust and drought which crippled the area for the last
    two or three years. Some wildlife are suffering with quite a few dead
    snakes on the road.
    The council in the town near our house have spent the last year or so
    deepening and enlarging one of the reservoirs, and it is now full to
    the brim and water birds are enjoying their new home. The banana
    trees in our garden have leapt out of the ground and are now twice as
    tall as they were just a few months ago, and the malagor are doing
    just as well. It rained every evening during our stay and on
    Wednesday night it pelted down all night, easing off and stopping just
    before dawn.
    Gnarled diminutive Khun Mom who owns the rice fields directly behind
    our house has a big smile on his face, striding around the perimeter
    levees of his 'thung naa' in an old pair of old rubber boots cut off
    at the shins, he's looking forward to a bumper harvest, but he's
    getting concerned that too much more rain will spoil a considerable
    amount of the rice, such is the uncertain life of an Isaani rice
    farmer. The people, many of them from Khoraat and Bangkok, who have
    invested in rice harvesting machines are concerned as well, as at this
    rate hand harvesting will required, as the soil may be still be too
    wet for the infernal machines to operate. The two 'talaad nat'
    markets which were held while we were there, were affected by the rain
    as well, as the open areas in town where they set up were turned into
    quagmires. It was amusing to see in the shops in town that the chut
    "Sangkhathaan" the orange buckets full of goodies which people buy to
    take to the temple as an offering to the monks, now almost all have an
    umbrella sticking out of the top.

    Isaan, lush, green and peaceful, is a pleasant place to be at present.

    ............. Bulshit from a poor Englishman in a wheelchair snipped

    Takin Gtheshit, you should really stop to take so much drugs.

    I understand that you are a poor pittyful sod in a wheelchair and your
    only life is waiting for your weekly visit from the big black wellfare
    man to pish you and your wheelchair out into the fresh air.

    But taking so much drugs that you start to hallucinate about me and me
    wife and that you are in Thailand dont do you any good.

    Better make a REAL trip to Thailand.

    It's worth the effort.

    Now be a good sport/[censored] and start posting again 10+ posts like you
    did last week.

    You are free to use any of your foregered ID"s as you are used to
    already.
    But make sure to not use the ID's Takin Gthepiss, Deckard or Sue
    Chaisone.

    Don't be such a coward and show us that you can post again 10+ posts
    in one
    day, wheelchairman.

    Note: if you or others knows the coward Takin Gthepiss real identity
    or his
    real name, publish it here and saves us the money of a lawyer to do
    that.

    From NtlWord.com (an ISP provider of Takin Gthepiss):

    "If you feel that the incident you are reporting warrants involvement
    of an
    appropriate law enforcement body then you must report the incident
    yourself.
    We will then cooperate fully with them as is appropriate under United
    Kingdom law."
