Recordist's notes
A boat bus running along the river in Bangkok. Theres people, the motor and an occasional whistling which was produced by the boats co-sailor, signaling the captain how close he is to the next landing stage, whether the rope has been fixed or losened, and whether the boat is ready to take off again -- a very elaborate whistling technique.
