    Is it a moan? I ate too much for breakfast and then went out for lunch, bought some lovely cheeses but have been unable to make a dent in them as I'm too stuffed. The moan is that my fridge honks of toe cheese, should have sealed the bag up better.

    Some people need to study the use of plurals.

    Just when it felt things were starting to return to normal Korat is now in the 'red' Covid zone, my daughter's school is closed for at least two weeks and we're exactly back where we were a year ago.

    ^ Yes!

    But this is just the start of it... must have homed around 15 puppies during last year's lockdown.

    To be honest although it's a moan, this online learning isn't all bad... for one it's 3 hours less a day in Korat traffic. I just have to dress up a bit when walking around the house and stick a pair of shorts on. These webcams are a nightmare.

    Did they get two weeks off for Easter already?

    How did your daughter get to school when you worked away?

    ...and our Grab failing to turn up when we left CM which meant I had to take my car to the airport and asked my secretary to have someone pick it up and drop it back to my house. Got back late last night and have just now noticed it's not here--I rather suspect because I forgot to tell them I'd moved so they've taken it to the wrong house.

    My daughter got just 10 days off for Songkran, 9th to the 18th... nothing for Easter. She usually gets 3 weeks over Easter/Songkran but it's vastly reduced this year... I think maybe they're pushing the terms through so the Singaporean teachers can get home in the summer if/when travel is easier? Although now that things are going backwards and onlune lessons have started up again I think the teachers will also be trapped in Korat this summer.

    The gardener also does the school run when I'm away... he earns a bit extra by picking up one of the daughter's classmates.

    It's fair enough to be honest because how ever could the wife fit in 8 hours a day watching crap on TV if she also had to spend 3 hours a day in traffic?

    ^ The rash is a distant memory, thanks for asking.

    I'm itch free but still have a scratch and a rub now and again just for the fun of it.

    Since I tried everything I'm not sure what the cure was, but have a feeling it was the Funginox that finally did the trick... it stung like hell when I sprayed it on so it must have been doing some good. That followed by regular powdering with Prickly Heat and I'm good to go.

    That is one moan I don't want to revisit.

    16 week wait for a log cabin/man cave in the UK.

    I was hoping to have it delivered within a week.

    Shares in sheds have gone ballistic this past year.

    I may have to make one...God help us....

    Could be worse, you could not be working and stuck at home.

    Sunshine until 2pm, 40mm of rain in an hour, the sun reappears and the garden steams.

    The good news is the fruit pickers are able to harvest/deliver the ripe, sweet and juicy mangosteens.

    One a day.

    Why do people in car parks wait for you to start reversing then start walking behind your car?

    Wankers!
    I like that idea, I will start doing that from now on, I'll walk around the carpark looking for reversing lights to come on

    People who send important work stuff after hours- in this case it was long after midnight. Oh the horror that I might actually have a life outside work work!
