'Immigrant Teacher Discovers Cure For Winter Freezing in Ponds'

Sounds like a tabloid headline, doesn't it?

One of our readers just sent this in from Thailand (yes it seems we have readers all over the world!), with his suggestion for dealing with Winter weather...

Here's what he had to say:

"Sorry but I cannot resist (and I probably should) responding to all the information about dealing with the big winter freeze.

I have quite a large pond .. see somewhere on the page: http://thailand4life.net/smithgarden/

But I have never suffered from the problem of ice or cold .... and my solution was ... move to Thailand ... recommended ;-) (and also more affordable on a teachers salary)

Have fun"

Well Chris, since most of us can't pick up and move over to your side of the world, we'll just have to enjoy your pictures and imagine 'what if...'

Some of you might also remember Chris's pond from our 'Funniest Pond Stories' from our May issue of PondStuff!

In case you missed it, you can read all about it here:

Enjoy!
