After Breakfast,

we thanked Nick and Maureen for looking after us so well,


 and made a move for home, swapping the truck for the bike and picking up the receipt from Numchai for the camera we arrived at the service centre,

 the good news was that far from taking 2 months to prepare a quote for the repair, it only took 10 days or so, the repair centre is located behind the main shop,

 which is on the Sumkivitt Road, at the moment with a nice Christmas display in the window,

 it is situated next to Soi Siam Country Club on the same side,

 and you can even shop online,

 next stop as we were in the area Foodland on Pattaya Central,we needed to buy a roast of pork for tomorrow, plus milk, vegetables and a few other bits and pieces,

 I spent some time in the afternoon bringing the blog up to date, then it was our evenings bar-b-q, meat spring rolls for Diana, chicken and sweetcorn soup for myself,

 then lite up the barby,

 as usual lots of smoke,

 then our own fireworks show,

 it is quiet amazing how one bag of charcoal just sits there and glows whist the next bag goes totally berserk,

 show over on with the garlic bread,

 'Cheers!',

 we decided on just a small main course, we were still so full from our 2 days with Nick and Maureen, so just a few pieces of chicken,

Diana decided on 2 more spring rolls and spaghetti bolognese

 for myself the chicken with a peanut satay sauce and a onion, cucumber and red pepper mixture,

Diana also had a home made Filipino dessert, but I was absolutely full, we listen to music for most of the evening, I have always liked Cajun music the more I listen to it the more I like it, I had in fact bought another 2 CDs of it, I just can not stop tapping my feet in time to it some of the tracks are so enjoyable, well for me like this one,


by Clifton Chenier, titled Opelousas Hop, (he was born on June 25, 1925, in Opelousas, LA;) which was just a instrumental, 


but there are some you can join in with like the Alligator Stomp, also by Clifton, the words are simple, just three of them, 'All Right Now' be ready at about 1:42 in, after about 11.00 we went inside to watch The Nightmare Before Christmas, which we both enjoyed, then for us we were off to bed.
