Day 1 in Bangkok

The flight went well and we arrived in Bangkok in the middle of the rush hour..

We picked up our beautiful pink taxi and headed to the hotel, before slipping some flip flops on and zooming over to meet Dag (Jen’s friend from work)

After meeting Dag we went to a Dutch bar call Det 5. Dag had Penang Curry, Jen (as always) had Green Chicken Curry, and I had a Pad Thai. Very nice…. its good to taste some proper Thai food.

And to complete the night, we played a few rounds of Table Football with Dag… the winner was Simon!!!! YAY…. worst table I’ve ever played on though!

2 days to go

Over the weekend we said farewell to many people with a heavy night in Basingstoke.

After boozing till the wee hours, we went for a curry and ended up getting home about 2.30am.

After going to bed at 3.45am and waking up early to continue packing, I had a headache from hell.. and the day was a real struggle.

We then went out to dinner with friends who couldn’t make it on the Basingstoke night. Once back, we spent the night at Jen’s sisters place (since our bed is now in storage!). I must say, slept like a baby!

Today, we took another van load of stuff to storage, before I went to work and Jen had millions of other jobs to do.

Now, at the end of the day… all we have to do tomorrow is sell Jen’s car, pack our suitcases, check all our documents… and hopefully relax a little…

The time is nigh!!!

Jetting off Wednesday night… so expect some piccies of a warmer climate by Friday folks..!

A very Happy Birthday to Conall!!     8Today!!

Well, life on the farm has been pretty quiet.  Si’s been working hard and I’ve been doing the odd job here and there to earn some pennies.

Si’ had a CT Scan last Wednesday and now we’re patiently waiting for his 2nd appointment with the ENT Specialist on the 10th Feb.  The steroid nose drops he’s been taking seem to be working as Simons not had a nose bleed for the last 5 days    YIPEEE

In the meantime thoughj, we’ve booked ourselves to go for a Dry Dive at the London Diving Chamber Thurs 3rd Feb to 50 meters, so we’ll be able to see if Si’s fit to dive 😀 and we’ll decompress on 100% oxygen  …which will be lovely!!
