Episode #4 of our house build in Ubon Ratchathani, Thailand. Very slow progress for a month, and then Covid strikes! After a few days of nobody on site and nothing done finally work re-started. Less than a month to the contract deadline and probably at least 6 weeks work to be done, judging by the current rate of progress.

More progress on our house building project in Ubon Ratchathani province, Thailand. In this episode the walls go up, are rendered, and primed. But not without a few missteps along the way. "Mai pen rai", everything will be right in the end ... so we are told.

Second episode of our house build in Ubon Ratchathani province, Thailand. From Day 1 to day 60, ten weeks of slowly assembling LOTS of rebar, the concrete pour for beams, slab and pillars, and starting the roof.

This is just a short video introducing our house build in Ubon Ratchathani province, Thailand. Plenty more to come before the house is finished, hopefully without too much drama ...drama is good for viewer numbers but not for me !

Just another short video to accompany the review of the "Green View Resort"that I submitted to Agoda.com after my recent visit. If a picture is worth 1,000 words, are "moving pictures" at 25fps worth 1.5million per minute ? Music is "Dusk", by Eric Matyas (www.soundimage.org)

Bangkok, October 2017 : volunteers worked through the night to transform an estimated million flowers into a floral remembrance tribute to the late King Bhumipol at Bangkok's Pak Khlong flower market.

Just a quick video review to accompany the review I submitted to Agoda.com after my recent visit. If a picture is worth 1,000 words, are "moving pictures" at 25fps worth 1.5million per minute ?

Footage from a recent "Japan Festa" in Bangkok, featuring Japanese food, music and lots of cosplayers. I've been playing around with the new(ish) Character Animator from Adobe so inserted a puppet from this program as a narrator just for practice ..Yes, I know I've got a lot to learn before I challenge the Simpsons ! www.adobe.com/products/character-animator.html Main music is "what we came 4" ...

Just my year's highlights in a short bit of fun footage. A year of a dozen tropical islands, visits to Myanmar, Hong Kong and Singapore, and trips around Thailand. Retirement sure beats working ! :-) (Unlike many of the other 2016 highlight videos on UA-cam, this one is NOT Sam Kolder inspired ! Footage from trips to Koh Phi Phi, Koh Lipe and the Similan Islands, various other places in Thailan...

Life's a beach on Ko Lipe, Thailand. Great off the beach snorkelling, diving further offshore, fresh seafood and a chilled atmosphere....what more could you want ? Timelapse scenes and some video shot with Nikon D7200, other scenes shot with Canon G7X, using the Canon underwater housing for the snorkelling shots.
