I went for a run this morning in Bangkok's Forest Park and deliberately left my earplugs behind. I found myself jogging joyously immersed in the sounds of birdsong, the buzzing of dragonflies, and the croaking of frogs. It continually brought a smile to my face. I think I have Mr Hopkins to thank for that, and the Futures Book Club!
