The Tax man cometh

Morning on another July overcast start to the day, not that I mind it being overcast, the clouds keep the sun away.

It is that time of year when the ol' jalopy has to go through it's Thai MOT, be reinsured for the coming year and pay the road tax in exchange for which they give you a nice colourful piece of paper to stick in the windshield. Yes we still have paper tax discs here and I cant imagine it ever changing whilst there are cars on the road. It's all locally done here, road tax car registration. Talk about job creation, it's a great scheme.


Prior to getting the disc I needed to have the MOT and insurance sorted which was fine after I has actually got to the place to do it. Getting there was a bit of a pain, ATM's out of service, rush hour traffic blah blah but it all got sorted and then, on a wonderful overcast morning, I set out on a most enjoyable stroll to complete the payment of the taxes due and get a brand new paper disc for the windshield.

Here's the 3D video;

 


Coffee.

 Not the end of the world, well not that I know of, just the end of July. Greetings all😀.

I seem to have got part way to sorting the tech and today or tomorrow I should be able to start the final configuration and I have been a walk, one of necessity being month end and here it is  Plus, as a bonus, as I am preparing the end on month slideshow for the real "Per Magica Ad Astra" blog slideshow and all that here is a little look at some snaps, set to tasteful music. I pay to have AI cull my images and these are the ones it says would be this months must see on social media. Really😖 What-ho... Coffee.

 Hello all. Yep another stunning Relive Video but this time because I just fancied changing the music to a non standard one I decided to turn it into a very short video. I can do that you know, years of experience that is forgotten as soon as I try to remember what the hell it was I wanted to do in the first place. And the video... I had a follow up to the bloods and body analysis I had done earlier in the week and as I was feeling a little more confident that my dickey gut was on the mend, I was confident that the 10km walk was a realistic objective. I had, as I found out, been perhaps a little too optimistic and should you see little deviations from the route in the video it is probably a quick detour in to a service station bog, a rather complimentary term for some of them😁 But I got to the docs was told to stop enjoying life and rethink my diet. I needed time to consider this so I took a little stroll into the city. Along the way there was a funeral procession for a monk, the ...
