Moving to the Moo Ban - Permanently????

[El Gibbon]

Yesterday we headed of to Laem Sing beach for a sea food lunch and some time by the water.

Ole E. G. needed some cash and figured I would take out all the necessary to do the E. O. M. stuff. Rent, Elect. TV. and Sat. fees. Off to the local Bangkok Bank. oooops bank is closed, not open on Saturdays. After living in Phuket and Bangers where you could find a bank open even on Sunday it was a mild surprise. No problem though, hit the cash machine and OK for the beach trip.

Will make another trip on the 2nd.

Laem Sing was a nice experience. The beach was deserted and we had our choice of tables on the beach to choose from. I understand that today (Sun) it will be jammed since they are have boat/canoe races.

Food was excellent and cheap. 1 large Coke, a water, 6 big Heinekens, spicey squid salad, four huge prawns, reg. fried rice, spicey prawn squid fried rice, large fried fish with mango salad and two cold coconuts came to 1090 baht. Fed 5 with plenty for all.

Sadly no pix as the batteries went dead on the camera and stupid me left the others in the charger at the house. dumb ass.
