Only a couple of weeks away now. My favourite of the Thai holidays, used to love making the krathongs with the students and going off to float them. The traditional dress, the history, the dances. The cheesy English version of the song (below for you to enjoy). Love all of it.

What you lads and lady (are we down to just the one now, not sure :D ) doing for it this year? I trust we'll have some nice photos on the go. :cheers:

I don't trust children. They're here to replace us.

Most likely a very late (after 11pm) trip down to Khao Tao Lake, where the action will still be in full swing.

I retired and moved to Thailand five years ago today. Just in time for Loy Kratong. It’s always special to me because of that.
