2017 has just flown past. I cannot believe we are in September already. But here we are most of the year gone, but not uneventful. Earlier in the year I was in Thailand. Lampang to be precise. Its in the north of the country, not down on the exotic coast line.
I didn't write it up when I returned because I got into remodeling a kitchen for Moira, my partner. That turned out to be an extremely lengthy task, but its all completed now and she is happy with the results.
So I will bring you up to date quickly and then move onto what I have coming up very soon.
The Thailand project was for The Fuller Center for Housing based in the USA. My hosts were Boots and Ramsey Walker Ex Habitat team leaders now hosting for TFC in Lampang. Boots is a native of the town so has a deep rooted interest in the welfare of the local inhabitants. And a great job they both do of hosting teams and building homes.

My team on this occasion was small to say the least, but we still managed to construct the best part of two homes and a small part of a third. Ted, King Henry, Chris and myself worked alongside Boots and Ramsey. Helped by members of the Fuller organisation in Lampang and some of their family, the guys employed to build these homes and of course the families that were to eventually move into them.

We had a great time working alongside so many good people, we made a difference even though we were such a small team, which just goes to show that every little helps.
I have included a few pictures here but if you want to see the full album you can go to the gallery page and check it out. http://teamleader.myfreesites.net/gallery
