    This has been great. I see the tan and white doggy stood in for Dog on this one 🤗. Loved the boxing knock out edit 😅👏. Fascinating about the half finished resort 😳. Omg, the story of the tin mine guy, not sure what to think 🤔, but incredible how something awful can be turned into something of beauty. I have really enjoyed this and some Phukets history some of it beautiful and some of it tragedy. Hope there is another one 👌👏👏. Now I have to edit, because of Dog being centre of 'mgm' thing at the end, so cute 😍

    Another great informative video. Yes thoes east/India companies have done alot of war/crimes dutch&brittish. It a shame about the little Blue boat of Hobart harbour she came adrift from her moorings and washed up against the rocky shoreline in the last few days with the relentless bad weather tassie is coping. Enjoy your well earned holiday come home safely get your dog and enjoy making more informative videos. Thanks Brother and ill see in the next one. Love and Light to all of you 💙

    Most of the WW2 relics through out the Pacific were recovered shortly after the war by scrap ,merchants ironically using surplus Navy barges and cranes. Much salvage was still usable and shipped to Australia for use on farms etc.

    • @angusthornett
      @angusthornett  24 дня назад

      True. The relics off Phuket are in the Andaman Sea. You’d have to imagine that some of them were probably salvaged by someone.
