this photos is of Michael (Peace Core Volunteer down in Svay Rieng) and Fiona, we were visiting a Pagoda (again), this one called Svay Chrum Pagoda.
This is the market place in Svay Rieng. all the rubbish is pilled out into the middle of the street through the day, gets stomped down by the shoppers and cars and motorbikes and bicycles and small children during the day, and the dogs and cats drag off bits, and then the little ants and cockroaches chomp away at it, and then eventually, in the depths of the night someone comes and picks up what is left puts it into a huge basket and carries it off to who knows where...
The witch with purple pants, her broom and her Cat. This is the name of my next novel. This is Fiona's cat, called 'Dom Ruit' (or something similar). Which when pronounced right it means 'Policeman'.
