They virtually give them away in Southern Thailand.
I used to collect them from the beaches for free after a storm.
It cracks me up how many morons have their driveways lined with coconut palms.
Just what I want hovering over my vehicles...bowling balls.

I stayed in a hut under a couple of coconut palms once.
We had a storm.
The noise was incredible as the coconuts crashed into the roof.
Really scary.

Interesting factlet for Adam: The Roman aqueduct at Pont du Gard took water to Nimes from a spring in Uzès where we're staying.
Indeed, an interesting factlet.
I know the aqueduct, of course, still truly impressive, and that it served Nimes, but didn't know the source.
Is the spring still flowing, do you know ?

What is Blimey ? Man you talk weird . Hahahaha Good day mate !
Evening, Mike.
G'day to you, too.
Blimey is like golly or crikey, or gosh or crumbs .
Used like a polite swear word to show surprise or anger.
It's short for "gorblimey" which comes from "God blind me!".
A splendiferous slang word.:)

Evening, Bea.:)
Hope you've had a super day so far.
Had a quiet day doing housework.
Hubby went into New Orleans to attend the funeral for Pete Fountain. He was a nationally renowned jazz clarinetist and his passing was a big deal here. He was 86. Hubby is a member of Pete's "Half Fast Walking Club" which paraded every Mardi Gras.
I think you would fit right in to the Walking Club, Adam! ;)

I'm sure I would!
Especially half-fast.
And I'm rather partial to a little jazz, too.
Certainly better than housework.:)
