Scaffolding! For Richard!

Richard, honeybunny, to acknowledge - despite neither understanding nor appreciating - your strange and worrying interest in international methods of scaffolding, just for you I took photos of how they do it in Laos.

Not nearly as clever or careful
as our Hong Kong fellows, are they?

Just call me an Enabler! And, yes, I know because you told me, that there are a bunch of you who are interested and who share photographs, but ... isn't that what pornography is for?

And maybe you'd like to expand your interests a little. Ceilings are also good! Here are a few ceilings in Laos:

See how they stack those cement tiles?

And here's the same done in thatch:

Interesting?

Or what about seaweed drying in the sun:

Fascinating?
Maybe these could become swopcards!

No? Doesn't do it for you?

And when you send around these photos of Laos scaffolding, maybe you'd also like to pass around this link to Simon Baron Cohen's Asperger's Test:

And, by the way, I just did it myself and, well, I'm NOT Aspergic although ... 25 points ... mmmm! It does explain why I too get so deeply and profoundly fascinated with strange things ...

... although SCAFFOLDING!!! PUL-EASE!!!

Sacred Caves, however!!! Now those - THOSE! - are a worthy subject for a border-line Aspergic fascination!
