My companions and I started to perspire under the brilliant blue sky and soaring temperatures, but they carried on happily exploring various places to take in the nostalgic atmosphere. I could not help but admire how eager they were to enjoy their vacation.

Possibly time to look on the bright side
News, Roger Crutchley, Published on 07/01/2018
» Having just about scraped through the Year of the Chicken, here we are seven days into 2018 and wondering what's in store during the Year of the Dog. It probably won't be all that great, but we'll leave the gloom and doom to the experts. Let's just hope it's a least a bit more enjoyable than the past couple of years which have really been quite awful, and almost of an annus horribilis nature.

Oped, Roger Crutchley, Published on 27/12/2015
» Well, we've just about scraped through 2015, although there have been a few dicey moments. Most of us will be happy to see the back of the Year of the Sheep, or was it the Goat?

#Traffic
Guru, Napamon Roongwitoo, Published on 20/05/2016

» Today's column is coming from the northeastern province of Chaiyaphum to where I periodically escape for a break from Bangkok.

A Thai lad about 5 years old came up to our table and stared at me for a bit and giggled. I might add this is not an unusual reaction to Crutch in the provinces.
