Updated my general cover letter and teaching portfolio. Now twiddling my thumbs, I think the next three weeks could be rather slow.

Owning your first property seems a bit humdrum already then?

Have you seen it yet?

[noelbino]

Definitely not between 2 and 5pm.
Stupid rule.

Excited for that- actually impatient would be a better word. Mentally checked out of Myanmar already. Spent most of the afternoon looking at Ikea furniture
Had this twee idea of buying local until I saw the price of oak furniture

Just stayed at the Phachara suites for three days, had an upgrade,as I stay there frequently with bookings.com.

Checking out today, and had a 30-minute wait as the silly fuckers couldn't find a knife that was in the room,and asking son in Thai if we had the knife,turns out the knife was under the tea towel.

well done reception and housekeeping won't be coming again.

You pay 10K to nick a knife, couldn't believe it.

Pity I didn't take the Alt nana when should of half the price and better breakfast and room.

Dillinger, your Beer Knowledge isn't 'arf bad.

My cleaning lady seem to have accidentally thrown out a stack of paper containing my Thai Police Report. Good news, Siam Legal can get me a new one, pretty sure China want it less than 6 months old, so it had to be done. The price? A mere $500 with shipping to Blighty.

Question to my moan! I have all the Thai stamps for my non b visa in my old passport. My work permit was handed back to the school over 2 years ago. Possible to get one without the work permit and 5000 baht "Government Fee" that the lawyer is tacking onto the charge?

As we are spending a couple of weeks in the Blighty to avoid Songkran here is a list of Gert's daily moans.

we're currently in NZ.
The HRV (@ 8:50 pm) says it's 25 degrees inside, and indeed it's quite tolerable.
Mrs Naam has a blanket over her shoulders as she surfs the net.
Mornings are a different matter, though. When it gets down to 20 inside. Wooly jumper time for me.

When it gets down to 20 inside

...wait til central heating catches on...you'll love it...

I've had an idea for outdoor activity buy a sleeping bag cut the bottom off cold person can walk and keep warm at the same time .Ideal for Thai people could be classed as extreme sleepwalking.

[klong toey]

Just had a video call with our son in Bangkok everything ok but meow meow the cat refused to talk to us,just sniffed the camera and walked out the room.

German army had one that had sleeves and a zip across the knees. Undo the zip. Put your legs out and fold the bottom behind you to secure it when you walked.





There's also a civi model.

Waited for over an hour for a No.66 bus this morning.

Took the wife for another driving lesson on Sunday. My resultant trembling took less time to go away this week.

Hold the course.

I started teaching my Thai Partner to drive (although she holds a Thai Car/Bike License) for some basics, then
over to a driving school for the serious stuff.

One driving lesson a week, then we'd follow-up in our car to practice what she had learnt.
Plus the help with the written test.
I even learnt a few new road rules.

3 driving lessons then one before her test ... passed on her first attempt.

A few anxious moments ... learners seem to have tunnel vision and it took a while for her
peripheral driving vision to develop.


Only a few more grey hairs and a few scrapes to the mag wheels (reverse parking).

18 months later ... she's sweet as. Not confident (maybe I'm over confident) but a talented driver.

I never worry when she's behind the wheel, with or without me (there's a song in that)

555 In Indonesia in a company car mine drove into the driveway but forgot to stop enough and hit the end of the car port wall. Years later on a different contract i was invited to the same house for a party and pointed out to the "new occupant" the reverse impression of a license plate in the wall board.

Why can't Thai shop workers be bothered? Missus sent me to Tesco for a battery, CR 2016. She knew they had them but when I went the woman said 'no have'. Missus went back straight away and returned with said battery and moaning like fcuk about Thais being lazy.

[misskit]

^ I went to Tesco this morning and was behind some guy complaining about the discount he thought he should get but didn't. The cashier told him he had to scan his receipt into his phone to get the discount. She pointed to a cardboard display with the instructions.

The guy walks over to the display and starts pushing the "buttons" on telephones pictured on the display. I was about to crack up.

When it dawned on him what he was doing, he turned around with a sheepish grin and left in a hurry.

Had some people over for a BBQ the other night, was having difficulty lighting it which is when I checked and noticed that the diffusers had rusted out. One was basically gone and another snapped in half. Luckily the third was OK.

Ordered some replacements but now I can't be fucked putting them in:
