Let out early from school today. It's been good fun and the kids are learning at an amazing rate. I'm very pleased with progress this year. A shame the salary does not reflect it.
Tom came over last night and we sdank some beers and sat out back in the balmy evening. We nearly always have a hoot, exchanging music tips and philiosophies on life. He must have some inkling now about who I am and what makes me tick.
I must say the PC game Singularity really is a great crack. The usual shooter in a soviet radioactive destroyed launch site. Very creepy, very fun and some excellent shooting opportunities. Highly recommended.
Downloaded some HG Wells audio books which look a treat, including The Island of Dr. Moreau.
Bought some carrot, tomato, lettuce and spinach seeds at the Hat Yai fair. They are now beginning to sprout.
On a sad note, a young girl was kidnapped, raped and murdered at the fair. Her body was found out near the airport. Not reported in the media, just word of mouth around the town. Thailand is known not to report stories that may affect business.
Been on some motorcycle jaunts around the countryside. Lovely at about five in the evening gazing at the hills, farmers in the fields etc. Still walking in the forest too.
Grace is just changing every day and will probably soon to be walking freely. Her birthday was a laugh. Eventually, folks turned up and the kids had a great time. It is good to see Grace mixing, laughing and wanting to join in with the other kids. Oi has done a good job of uniting some of the ferocious neighbours.
Thanks again for all the parcels from abroad. It is great fun to receive them.
