About Me
- Jenny Beattie
- I moved with my family to Bangkok in July 2005. What do I do? I make hats and costumes; I’ve written articles, a novel and a non-fiction book is underway… I've held a variety of volunteer positions within the expat community. Tea stains is where I write and illustrate the things that consume me: life in Thailand, shop windows, books, cats, making, hats, fascinators, tea and the colour orange.
What am I reading in 2016?
The War of Art by Steven Pressfield
The Trouble with Goats and Sheep by Joanna Cannon
The Year of Taking Chances by Lucy Diamond
Mr Phillips by John Lanchester
Waiting for Sunrise by William Boyd
The Ice Twins by SK Tremayne

I actually can't get my head around how big that is. I keep looking and thinking the humans are teeny-tiny instead. Weird!
oh no is that for my ms!!!!!!!
And your costumes looked good especially the Fascinators. Well done.
Sorry I mentionned the little hat thingys but I hadn't read your last post!!! Oh and I'm really glad the writing is going well [teeth clenched tight].
B, I've only photographed it from the skytrain walkway, above the road... I really MUST go down there and take a look at it from the pavement. It's gigantic, isn't it?
Sheepish, NOOOOO. We'll have none o'that talk here... Thank you.
S'alright, Sheepish, I've spent the day at chinatown sourcing materials for the bloomin' christmas ones! AND NOT WRITING.
How did they get that there?
OMG, Debs, I never thought of that!
I love Thailand!
That's bizarre!
I love the sculpture. 'bout the right size for all my failed attempts at writing something readable.
Leigh, *grins* me too.
Karen, isn't it?
DOT, NOOOO. We won't have any talk like that!
perfect size for my daughter's bedroom!
Is this for all my rubbish short story ideas!! thank heavens for the virtual one on my computer!! Ha Ha no need for pep talk - am over it now lol
I was an 'ex-pat type person' more than 20 years ago and I seriously cannot get over how much Thailand has has changed. Public art? Amazing and wonderful! A bit like your blog!
Rachel *grins*
Lily, well it's big enough for all our rubbish ideas, but if you're anything like me, you'll keep them... just in case.
HelenP, welcome and thank you. Thailand has changed even in the four years I've been here. But it must be more dramatic if you were here 20 odd years ago.
I expect some of the cultural foibles are still pretty much the same!
