  • Monday Morning

    It is Monday morning and I had one of those slow starts again. I must say I worked on the computer till two in the morning. Copying photos on DVD’s and backing up our computers. Then I woke up several times during the night for no particular reason.Around eight in…

  • Luftverschmutzung in Chiang Mai

    Heute habe ich die Bangkok Post in die Finger genommen und die Werte für die Luftverschmutzung angeschaut. Diese sind auf auf 250,9 microgramm per Kubikmeter. 120 Mg. sind so das Veranttwortbare. Bern wo ich herkomme ist bei 31Mg. (in der Schweiz hatte ich letzten Sommer das Gefühl neben der Autobahn…

  • Spiderman in Bangkok

    It’s been a long time since I have traveled to Bangkok. We had a great time roaming the shopping centers and taking time to talk and drink coffee. There were two new malls. Siam Paragon, next to Siam Center and connected through a walkway with water plays and Palm trees.…

  • On the go

    In a view minutes we are off to Bangkok. Just lillian and me. Two days, shopping, drinking coffee, sight seeing and enjoying two days to our own. It’s not easy when the kids miss us before we even leave. But anyway its the first time in three years.

  • Realationship – Form

    I red a post on Reinhold’s blog. After writing a comment I decided to also post it here. "This is an interesting post. Made me think a lot about church. If I would have to choose between form and relationship I’d definitely choose the later. Where a greater number gathers…

  • On the break?

    Yesterday I went to the Shell Proserv station to get the engine oil changed on my truck and to get it washed as well. I asked if they could change the breaks at the back since they were breaking only at 46%. I had to test them in January and…

  • Night Owl

    Often when it gets late I will become more active and sometimes more productive. It’s quite, there are less disruptions and if the "devils eye" wouldn’t petrify me to the sofa (by this I mean the TV) so often, I would get a lot more done at night. It is…
