17th August 2013 - And now for something completely different


Occasionally something catches my eye on the old intertweb, something silly, or something amusing, or something just a little strange about the world we live in. Today was one of those days...
It started with a small video reference on facebook and a follow up to Thailand, and a particularly famous (apparently) market that runs across a railway track and four times a day, the traders remove all their goods and the awnings to allow the train to pass through...   



Maeklong Market in Thailand ....

I thought the story was quite fascinating and so it is posted here.
A further explanation, and a slightly longer version of the train arrival is held on this video...

and a fuller version of the market train story ....

So, for no other reason than that I can - I post it here before getting back to the rest of the clearing....
