There are five things which no one is able to accomplish in this world: first, to cease growing old when he is growing old; second, to cease being sick; third, to cease dying; fourth, to deny dissolution when there is dissolution; fifth, to deny non-being.
-- The Buddha

A house is about to be built here and, in typical Thai fashion, they arrange delivery of the most important bits first. Seems somehow logical that, as this is the rainy season, they want to keep dry. Therefore better get the tiles first! No bricks, concrete or even tools. Just the tiles.
I'll try to get a photo if they get the roof up without support.
