    Speaking of planes,

    Savannakhet got hit by a big storm on friday afternoon some of our guys were waiting to board the Cessna for a 30 minute flight to the minesite, One plane got damaged and they wont be flying the other one until an engineer checks it out

    Im due for R&R and getting a bit toey, got told yesterday the trip to savannakhet to meet the Lao airlines flight to vientiane will be by minibus, Shit, 5 hours bouncing down that nightmare of a road.

    The same thing happened coming in to start my swing, and its not even wet season yet, Bugger, That A380 looks nice Nat

    We`ve had a crappy few days up here in the frozen north.


    It got to mid afternoon and I started to get a bit of cabin fever, so had to go out.



    It wouldnt have been too bad, but the wind was blowing like a good un, which made it all a little less pleasurable.

    The drifts were quite impressive.





    That car isnt going anywhere soon.



    Well, the pubs in sight, with an open fire, free soup with roll, and some great hand pulled ale.
    I aint superstitious, but I know when somethings wrong
    I`ve been dragging my heels with a bitch called hope
    Let the undercurrent drag me along.

    Way too hot now. Feels like you're riding your bike into a hairdryer on full power.

    Yep, I thought we`d seen the last of the white stuff a few weeks ago. Ahh well, at least little Ast has had a great time.

    Too hot for me. Under the grand poobahs master plan, we would be leaving Thailand around now (having wintered there) to have a pleasant summer in old Blighty, with tea, scones and cricket to look forward to. Its a shame Mr Osbourne has put paid to that for a few years.

    You wait too long, cos he's almost blocking the view.

    Good job you didnt buy that one. I reckon it would look a little out of place in your house.

    I C that the snow plows do the same thing in the UK as they do in the United States and that is plow the streets and push the snow into the parked cars. That snow then turns to ice and it takes forever to shovel the car out.

    Thats right. They`ve now started blocking in side streets as they drive by as well. I guess it boils down to being paid to do a route, rather than being paid by the hour and doing the job right.
