Wat Kham Chanot ban dung issan thailand

Wat Kham Chanot is a medium sized buddhist temple outside of ban dung town. a short drive of 10 to 15 minutes the well kept island setting a separate part of the temple inside the lush forest of palms which is one of the best temple area.s I have been to in Thailand to date Hundreds of Naga snake sculptures surround the Area a small pond area with large turtles eye.s just showing above the surface Lots of small shrines and spirit houses make the whole area very beutifull A giant elephant scuplture for worship most of the visitors are Thai people. There's no guiding for the temple area. the king of thailand has been known to visit and i hope he can come again if you are going to ban dung take a trip out to wat kham chanot its worth the trip even if your not a temple fan because it is so different

The Ghosts Of Kamchanod

a very interesting story about the temple can be found on beyond the mango sauce blog reading this would make you think about hanging around there late at night

credit crunch uk stay in thailand guys

stay in thailand guys the credit crunch is getting out of control with so many homes been taken back buy the banks
The Last Crash: 1989 - 1996
It took 7 years for the crash to bottom out wiping out 30% of the price of an average home in the uk. If anyone was convinced by the government to buy on the downslope they risked massive falls in the value of their homes and also negative equity or even repossession! You should never buy on a downward slope as you simply don't know when you are going to hit the bottom.

This Crash: 2008
We have JUST started our decline this time around, the tipping point was 2008. based on the last crash. I am confident that we are going in to a dip, I just don't know how long or deep this crash is going to be this time around.
You can at least agree that if you buy now, you are staring in to a chasm with no idea how far you are going to fall.
