 Bangkok Post Thursday 30 June 2005 - Paradise on your doorsteps

A district in Nakhon Pathom, Bang Len is less than an hour's drive from downtown Bangkok via the Buddha Monthon 4 or Rattana Thibet Highway.
Surprisingly, it's been spared the ravages that are part and parcel of urban development, which makes a river cruise and a night onboard a delightful and relaxing experience.

Gopher hunt draws fervour and furor this document web posted: Thursday May 8, 2003 20030508p4 By Sean Pratt Saskatoon newsroom Western Producer One thing both critics and promoters of a controversial gopher derby agree on is that it won't have much of an impact on the prairie population of Richardson ground squirrels.
"You talk to any person that's over 50 that shoots, ask them where they learned to shoot - shooting gophers out in the pasture at home." He said the 60,000 critters that were killed in last year's contest was a "drop in the bucket" in terms of the total prairie gopher population.
