The Bug Team Arrived,

at 09.30 on the dot, 


 as arranged yesterday,

 the lady is unloading the hose,

 that connects to this pump and sprays around the outside of the house and outer wall, whilst I presume it is her husband, has a hand held fire extinguisher sized canister, he pumps up to spray around the inside of the house, they call every month and charge 4,000 baht (at today's rate £93.66 or $119.93) per year, naturally this will guarantee rain tomorrow to wash all of the bug killer applied outside away,

 after breakfast we were off,

 to Index,

 which is on the Sumkivitt Road, we were so pleased with the bedroom chest of drawers that we thought we would buy another one, pity we did not think of it at the time if you buy a wardrobe it is free delivery if not 500 baht, also this time the item is not in stock so we have to wait for a telephone call from Index, hopefully next week,

 next stop Big C Extra, 

  there were a few things we wanted to buy,

  then Swensens, this month durian flavoured ice cream that Diana likes,

 for myself a banana and strawberry milk shake,

 arriving home we noticed one of the bunches of lemons was getting bigger, 

 and it appears we have a double one, 

 in the evening we were off with Mr. Tony who kindly picked us up, to Cherry's, which is on Third Road opposite what was once the X-Cite disco,

 we arrived at 6.30 in the evening and the place was already full,

 on with the starters,

 and this evening we were also joined by Jim and Cher, 

 by happenstance soup of the day was lobster bisque, a favourite of mine, so I had a bowl, or two,

 Diana made her choice, 

 for myself,

 another selection of starters,

 main course for Cher, 

whilst I had a few more starters, we moved on to desserts, then a moment of sadness for Mr. Tony as he said farewell to Jim and Cher as they will be leaving for the USA next week, we will be seeing them for the last time on Friday at the market, then they are away home until their return next January, Mr. Tony kindly dropped us off home and after saying our farewells we watched a couple from Bargain Hunt then we were off to bed.
