    I’ve been to Lopburi. It’s a wild place with monkeys literally swinging from the power lines. Imagine being in a place where every squirrel, rat, and pigeon was replaced by a really ill tempered monkey about the size of a large house cat.

    I think I see the problem. They’re leaving small alters of fruit for the simians.

    Lopburi was one of our favourite places to visit in Thailand. The monkeys had been getting increasingly cheeky while we were there 9 or so years ago. I read somewhere that they went nuts when covid hit and there weren’t a ton of tourists to feed them.
