After last time Stuart..... Lesson learned. Big time you shyster!! 🤣

I feel the same regarding the heat here in BKK.... Its weird! Obviously it's hot most of the time but at about 5pm when the sun starts to dip the humidity seems to rise to uncomfortable levels. New to me also. Never known that before in February. Still, it's still minus degrees in shitty Sweden and has been for weeks. Not looking forward to leaving Thailand tomorrow night and returning, albeit temporarily, and returning to that shit!

That's my wife's aunties house down in Hat Yai. We stayed 3 nights so that nest wasn't my responsibility. However, her aunty asked a guy who knows another's guys mothers brother for advice. Leave it alone until the hornets vacate the nest. Apparently, if you disturb them they will enter the house causing a big problem. Luckily they weren't the "giant" variety of hornet but they were still big!

Many thanks Mike. Lots of hurdles in the way but hopefully we can overcome them. The main reason we wanted to stay in SI Kan is because the wife's mum and her partner live 5 minutes away. Both in their 70s and both becoming less mobile by the month. Mum's partner particularly worries me has he is a big guy and is very unstable on his feet. So here is few pics taken by my wife's friend. The rooms are actually bigger than the photos depict and the place is spotless. Less said about the Hong Nams and Shower Room the better as I'm hoping the owners will allow us to re tile those areas. Otherwise I could be having hallucinations in those rooms! Honest opinions welcome of course. 10k baht per month. Contract signed and deposit paid.

We've chosen a place in SI Kan, Don Mueang. Typical Thai street full of iggldy piggldy type houses. Supposed to be signing the contract tomorrow evening. Looks nothing special from the outside or inside but the place is like a Tardis. Biggest place I'll have ever lived in. 3 bedrooms, large living room, 2 small bathrooms and a large kitchen and large covered porch. Plus a shared yard to the side of the property. Good for our cats when we get them over here. I'll post some photos later but before commenting please realise this house needs a lick of paint here and there and a bit of imagination. 10,000 baht per month.

Agreed. Who do you fancy for the next shit show as manager/coach or whatever they are called these days? Personally, I'm apathetic to it all now. I'm resigned to the drop and we won't get promoted at the first attempt either. Could take a long time.

We are gone @Bobbyg. Having watched the last few games I cant see a team worse than ours. They are all crap but we are just scrapper. We can't score a fecking goal.

Just noticed this monstrosity above our bedroom. I'm guessing this is Hornets nest. Would that explain the number of bees entering our room? 100s of them. Now dead!

A distant call to prayer from a nearby mosque in Hat Yai.

Just having a couple of beers before showering and an early night. Leaving Hat Yai at 7 in the morning then a first time visit to Satun province. No idea what to expect other than half a dozen stops on the way for the ladies to buy loads of shite!

Bores me to death.

One of snookers genuine characters. I used to enjoy his impersonations of his fellow pros. RIP.

This lady is a good actress imho. Brilliant in "Misery". Kathy Bates.

And I'll guarantee that ours has been around the block a few times without any success whatsoever such is our ambition. Karanka touted as favourite at the moment. Might aswell dig up Ken Dodd!

Potted earlier this evening Bobby. By mutual consent by all accounts. Who's next I wonder?
