Re: How much would it cost?
This has been a really interesting thread. I am almost tempted to build again. Would fancy doing a place on stilts with solar panels, passive cooling etc. I wonder whether rammed earth with an outer protective skin/barrier would work in the tropics as well as it does in dry heat environments for pa...

Birthing clinic for Khmer nationals? (Why rush these things)
Young miss is about to sprog at any point, and naturally she and her husband are yet to make any birthing plans. Why rush these things, right? Mrs Stroppy and I figured we'd better get things planned before the baby is actually crowning - although this does seem to be taken with a little surprise by...

Re: Best cheap hostels in Cambodia and Vietnam for backpacking in style
Depends on your standards really, I've had good fast food, and good cheap accommodation. I guess when you've seen/experienced what shit actually is you become a lot more accepting Yep - I was overgeneralising. I actually don't mind a feed of fried chicken at Lucky Burgers, although it's a toss on a...

Re: Bicycles/motor bikes on country highways
If I did it, would be a definite 'all the gear all the time' ride and I'd take my chances cruising along sub 100kmh hoping Stroppy's split-second sidecar pilot took the day off! Yeah, I was overtaking everything else on the road except for the prat that hit me - this was an "all gear" rid...

Being assigned to this tender would be a hell of an assignment. https://i.imgur.com/XTt0hZz.png Looks like 666 is the number to phone if there is a fire . You could be right, although I think the other tenders have different numbers. It's possibly the tender's radio number. Edit: nope, you're right...

Re: Bicycles/motor bikes on country highways
Riding in a group is inherently more dangerous, for many different reasons. More info, please? For anybody who wants to look into this in more depth, google is your friend. There's a fairly exhaustive amount of evidence that group rides are statistically much more dangerous. Biggest issue is varian...
