They wouldn't let me take my Swiss pocket knife on board and here we see evidence that the posh bastads get metal cutlery!
What an unfair world this is...

Have to approach HK from the east adding more time and missing connecting flight.
Met by a pretty lass at the door to sort flight out.
Next flight full, hope we can lay over.
Dam got seats on last flight out arriving BKK after midnight.
$500HK given to spend on food & ales.
First stop some ramen
then some shopping and the lounge again.
Cathy pacific to Bkk change of plane meant the old style seating.
nice bit of cod and mash.
Arrive in BKK very drunk and full as fook.

Looking good there. Long old journey - would have been tempted to break it with a couple of days in HK to kick about.

Good thread, Jack. Glad the steak was up to par.
It's tough being continually offered food on a plane. I find it difficult to refuse so I usually get off the plane feeling full.

Welcome party at Khon Kaen
Arrive at mansion
Got some fireworks and beer & good scotch (Tomatin 12 year).
Brother in laws turned his fortuna into some kind of night club, so frigging loud.

She hasn't seen her mum (wife's sister) in the last year.
A tad awkward.
