Hua Hin hath no snow!
Dear All,
We narrowly missed having severe snow blizzards here in Hua Hin and we feel very fortunate that the temperature did not fall below 19C/66F degrees. (… and that was not considering the wind-chill factor.) How I managed to keep warm without central heating and my Barbour is beyond me.
Now the temperature is a very comfortable 32C/90F thank you, and the threat of the cold spell continuing, seems to have lessened.
Welcome to Paradise at Panorama.
How has the weather been where you live?
A big ‘Thank you’ to Erich and Ursula for the photo. I felt ‘chilled to the bone’ just looking at it.
Moving swiftly on; and starting with an apology for not having posted a newsletter earlier, I am pleased to write that we are busy.
The definition of busy in this instance, means that we now have an additional five villas under construction plus one of the distressed sales being bought. So, that’s six in total.
This is keeping everyone busy and I am no exception insomuch that every new villa owner wants to have their own personal touch to their villas which requires that modifications to plans are necessary.
Yes, we don’t just build a house with a ‘like it or leave it’ attitude, we actually encourage owners to have their own input of ideas, thus the villa becomes their ‘home’.
Look at the photographs below to see the progress on the plots that, a few weeks ago, were empty. Try to spot the ‘U’ shaped concrete structures. They house the villa’s electricity and water meters, and telephone connection point. Virtually all have been completed which means that, in a very short space of time, the electric cables will go underground.
Eureka!
I know that this is Panorama and not Syracuse, however, the joy and excitement that I will experience when the cables go underground will be enough for me to run naked around the development.
Book your tickets now to avoid disappointment. (I can already, imagine your replies – please, be nice.)
Finally, it is a pleasure to welcome new visitors and, incorporate new countries to our mailing list such as, Finland, New Zealand and the Isle of Wight. (Say ‘Hello’ to Chillerton for me.)
I wonder who will be the first to dispute that the IOW is a country.
Enjoy the photographs and; if you wish to moan – tell me. If you wish to praise – tell everybody.
Thank you and Cheerio,
Martin
