Post a random pic you took in Thailand

One afternoon I was sat at my computer, as usual at the time given I was still at least trying to make a living off my business.  Anyway, I was on the phone with my partner as I recall, when suddenly a bird appeared in my field of vision.  Nothing unusual about that given that I lived on the 15th floor of View Talay 1.  However, this bird got bigger and bigger until, yep, it flew right into the condo.

Clearly a racing pigeon from a club, and clearly exhausted and hungry, it hung out for about a week.  We fed and watered it, and Lady R. gave it a name.  I tried contacting the local pigeon racing club etc., emailed them pics of the leg tags, etc., no response.

It disappeared as mysteriously as it came.  Amazing Thailand.

With my dear friend Snookygirl at a certain pub in Pattaya.  Unfortunately she had a bad motorcycle accident about 2 years ago she's still recovering from.

I met her about the same time, knew about the accident but wasn't aware of the seriousness of it though.

She nearly died actually.  Was badly busted up.  Spent a month in hospital in Bangkok (IIRC) until she was well enough to return to Denmark.  Multiple surgeries while there and about 2 years of recovery. 

She's starting to get around a bit now.  She was in Pattaya when I was there in February but more or less confined to quarters because she still isn't really walking well.  I was escorting a noob so didn't have time to visit her (he said guiltily).

Didn't she have a bout of cancer as well which preceded the accident, hope she is recovering well from both conditions.

Souinds right IIRC.  I have her on Facebook but she doesn't post much.  I might see if I can raise her on Messenger and check on her.
