Wall


My wall, devised by me, but I did very little except oversee the job. I am very pleased with the results. It also makes the garden look a lot bigger.

Spirit House


Almost every house in Thailand has a "spirit house", I dont know the officail name. I forgot to put a picture on of ours when it was installed a few months ago.

Gates

I made these gates ages ago to be honest, it was created out of the wood that was used for concreting the walls, it was planed down and varished and looks great, however not one piece of wood was actually what you would call straight. Tariq and I then put pulleys and weights on to make them close automatically when you release them.

Drrot


Along the road came some people playing instuments and dancing. I was told that this is called "drrott", similar to British carol singing, they are collecting donations for the local temple (Wat). They got a little something off me.
