Fruity


There seems to be a new craze sweeping Hua Hin. Thai women seem to think its good to walk around with plastic fruit on their heads. Bananas apples even half a water melon. Cant wait to see someone with a jack fruit. For those who dont know who big they are, see pic.

I hope you don't find this as funny as Jess did.

I Don't Believe It

Last night I was sitting in the garden with a gin and tonic (yes I still have some) minding my own business when a pigeon fell out of the sky and landed "splat" on my head. I pushed it off and the cats all tried to get it. I was running around chasing them off with a broom while Dave picked the bird up and threw it in the air. Fly of die. It flew.

Believe it or not


We were in the middle of a massive thunder storm. Torrential rain and this man is watering the garden. Taken from Jess' balcony so he's a bit far away.

Long Neck Karen



We visited a village of Long Neck Karen. They really do exist. A few pics. The lady in the second pic asked me if I had a mobile. She wanted to "phone home".

Bored or what

This Hippo is just so bored with people watching. Or has he been watching Thai TV. A trip to the dentist may be in order.

Sorry Lawboys


Another bad picture but I'm sure you will get the gist.

Condo


Jess has found herself a condo. Its in Hua Hin 5 minutes from the school. I'm quite envious, she has a large pool  (the times we have been there there has only been us and another couple of people). She is also only about 50 yards from a great beach.

Chiang Mai again

Just got back from 4 days in Chiang Mai. If you are ever up there do go to the zoo. It was amazing. It has been built on hills, and I swear they all went up. We were also told you get the best Thai massage by going to the womens prison where the INMATES have been trained in Thai Massage. We didn't go because we didn't know whether it was a euphemism.

Oh Dear
