Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible

Am I aware that my contributions to this organ have been somewhat lacking over the past couple of weeks (Months? Years?). This can be ascribed to laziness, inertia and a lack of subject matter; but it is also due to the fact that my wife is stuck in Bangkok and I spend too much of my time watching flood updates on Twitter.

The good news is that she who must be obeyed has agreed with her employer that there is no point in her continuing her training in Bangkok, as many of those she is meant to be working with are already away trying to safeguard their homes. I am off to Bangkok tomorrow, will be looking for some flood related snaps in the afternoon and then on Friday there is the wedding of a very good Thai friend of mine; provided that the Dusit Thani is not underwater. On Saturday we will return to Pattaya and life will return to a less stressful level and I can perhaps give this blog thingie a bit more attention.

Of course this plan could all go to pieces if the water comes quickly and comes deeply. If you don’t hear from me by Sunday, please airdrop Mars Bars. I thank you.

Hope you have a dry excursion and that the cats are being taken care of.

Thanks. Cats have full maid service; plus a neigbour is standing by in case longer term support is required.

Suspect that you’ll be extremely glad to be back when (if) you get home.

I am indeed glad to be home; but I would have no problem going back to Bangkok.
