Wats on Friday, Soccer on Sunday

-

 It's Monday already and the sporty weekend has meant I didn't put together the slideshow of the images I planned so here are a few of the snaps I took anyway😁.

Not only that but, unlike most of the current blogs, I will include a Relive as it shows the Wats on Friday.

So here to start is the short sticky rice stroll on Friday and I just felt like snapping a few shrines and wats along the way.

The Relive shows where they are



And here are a few of the snaps
I have an app on the PC that grades my photos and one of the things it does is pick snaps that will get billions of social media hits, on this walk this was the first one it picked

I am not sure why, maybe that's why I don't get a lot of social media hits😃
Here are a couple from Wat Rong Don Chai

And of course there was Was San Klang Tai 




And the one I posted on Facebook that attracted a little interest

Like me some people liked how this came out.
Well no special effects, no tweaking.
It was because I can have my phone to maintain last settings and as on the snap before where I locked the exposure on the interior of the room
The sunny day led to the over exposed shot.
As I liked it I kept it😎
Friday afternoon went a little off plan as an urgent trip cut my planned walk into the city for a the fish on Friday.
Still, I enjoyed the shortened walk where I ended up at the Red Lion and once again my app said this lively can of beer would be a social media hit...
I had gone to OMG with friends before to enjoy the best fish and chip that I know here, maybe it is because I like haddock😋
Here are a few of the other things I snapped along the way.
The fountains in the park were producing some smashing rainbows




Then on Sunday after the MotoGP I had a nice evening stroll to the Red Lion, I do like early evening strolls when the sun is setting. By the time I had got to the iron bridge it was good and dark, so time to snap again


The new (ugly looking building I think) night club had lots of youngsters at maybe an opening event?
And I had to fend off my adoring fans before arriving at the Red Lion for footy and...
So now it is Monday, and I am going to have a brew.
Coffee.

A bit of an update

 Greetings all It has been a busy time here in the Trinder household. Our friends Steve and Izzy are here, it’s great to see then after the Covid enforced travel ban so here are a few snapshots of the stuff we have been up to. Christmas dinner at O.M.G A wander around the 700-year park A wine or two at Moment and Wine A walk by Mae Kuang Dam where the water is still so high the lower road is under and no longer accessible. Queen Sirikit Botanic Garden Mon Jam And the Stinky Canal. All of this has been wonderful but for Pin and I it is clouded by our Satang being seriously ill and needing an operation. The good news is she looks to be healing well and today, fingers crossed, she can come back home and we can be a family again.

Olympus Oldies Diary

November 2023 and a small bunch of retired Olympus UK oldies got together for bike rides, MotoGP and a trip to Vietnam. So I hastily put together some snaps to make a slide diary. Unfortunately my slideshow app kept crashing and simply would not produce the normal 4K video so here it is at FHD. Which, as it has taken all day to get it done is probably as good as this will be, at least until I know what is going wrong.

Olympus Oldies, the Pattaya Ride

 Only a month after the event, it is a good job I am not paid as a reporter. Anyway, with a November scheduled to a bunch of oldies that once worked for Olympus, when Olympus was Olympus that is, setting out to take South East Asia by storm (more a gentle breeze) the world needs to know that later life can be fun, an awful lot of fun. The drawback does include getting stuff wrong, like deleting the bikes onboard video before checking it had been transferred😖 so on this particular video you have to make do with the Relive trace. No way do I, or am I anything like the talented friends from Olympus and elsewhere when it comes to artistic prowess but it is good to be able to bring the viewing public down to earth now and again. Coffee.
