First Thing In The Morning,

a trip to the motorbike repair shop,


 over the past few days instead of starting at the first press of the button it was taking longer and longer to start, 

 but there were a few bikes that needed attention before me, but it gave a me a chance to have a closer look at this cart,

 it had a rolling mill on it, 

 with two rollers that could be adjusted by turning a bolt on the top of the device,

 the rollers were serrated and are in fact used to roll dried squid,

soon it was my turn, a new spark plug fitted, also the rear brake and linkage was removed and cleaned, it had developed the annoying habit of sticking on, despite my oiling the outside of the pivots it was obvious the fault was inside the main pivot under the bike, 

 anyway 120 baht later and we were at Tesco Lotus and yes it was raining,

 we are popping over top see Nick and Maureen tomorrow as it is their 35th. wedding anniversary, so we thought we would bring over some ice cream, so we just had to stop in Swensens to buy a tub of rum and raisin,

  and naturally have one ourselves, a mango special for Diana,


and a Colt Tower for myself,

 a tub of ice cream to go and we were off,

 but first a quick look at another anniversary,

 I am guessing this is the 20th year of trading for this Tesco lotus store with a huge cake to celebrate,

 in the evening I popped out to take a few pictures of the lunar eclipse, but the sky was full of cloud, then it was glad rags on, 

 for our visit to Cherry's for tonight's evening meal, the restaurant is opposite what was once the X-Cite disco on Third Road,

 we were there for their 399 baht Wednesday and Saturday International buffet, looking at the desserts already,

 the salad bar,

 we were joined this evening by Mr. Tony,

 Diana's main course of chicken and baked salmon,

'Cheers!', after we said our goodbyes to Mr. Tony it was feet up for a couple from Columbo then for us off to bed.
