these are all the 3 for 100 baht ones,
I just hope we can get them to flower again next year!
then off for Sunday lunch,
we meet Jay and Precil in the bar opposite,
Jay had the 99 baht Sunday lunch,
Diana had the bread roll, no she wanted a change to the Sunday lunch so she went for the spaghetti bolognese, which she pronounced delicious, as good as her previous favorite the Surf Kitchen in Jomtien,
Precil also tried a change, a massive 'T' bone steak,
and I decided to have a change to, a sirloin, which was very nice too,
"Cheers!" from all of us,
Bobby the owner called over to say Hi!,
and a hello from one of the waitresses, with Jay and Precil,
and with us,
more wine please!
we also bumped into Herman from Duisburg who by chance sat at the table next door, then time for home, whilst having a couple of cups of coffee we watched the first series of It Ain't Half Hot Mum,
Jay had not seen it for some time, we both enjoyed it immensely, of course a series like this could not be made today, it was a time when things could be said with innocence, after Jay and Precil left it was feet up to watch a film,
Sleepy Hollow, then off to bed.
I must say what a sensible move it is to plant Orchids in pots on the ground, something one does not see much of these days. Modern tradition being to suspend them in the air allowing the air to reach the roots. This is all very well but if not firmly secured they can come loose and tend to hit one on the head. Which can be a very unpleasnt experience indeed.
ReplyDeleteDear Anonymous, I have seen special orchid pots for standing on the ground, they have air holes in the sides, but as our ones are solid we used charcoal to allow the air to circulate around the roots, I think the reason being is that if the roots remain too wet they will rot, I just hope ours survive for more than a few years, best regards, Stan and Diana.
