First Thing And Off To Carrefour,

another tray for one more of Diana's miniature gardens,
I arrived there just as they opened,
next stop just up the road to the plant stalls, we still needed some more chopped coconut to try to keep moisture in the soil,
the shrine next to the store,
another bonsai looking for a home,
3 more bags of coconut chips the tray from Carrfour and I am good to go!
after dropping all of the shopping off it was time for a late breakfast/early lunch, so as we have had a number of very nice meals there I decided to eat at the Punch & Judy,
also we had noticed that at the front of the pub there is a sign, 199 baht for burger, chips and a pint, what a way to start the day, 'Cheers!'
next for today, place the coconut chips on the soil, after putting the new tray next to the first one, I just hope after all of this the idea works!
next spread the coconut chips out evenly, only to realise we need another couple of bags to make the covering look even, should have taken the truck and bought the big bag in the first place!
Mark called round for a cup of tea or two, so we chatted the afternoon away, then away to the Royal Indian Hut for my evening meal,
a starter of the most delicious onion bhaji's I have eaten - anywhere,
followed by chicken tikka masala and rice,
after the meal I had a look at what the disturbance was on Second Road, it appears that some one is laying a cable along the road, they just finished as I arrived, the low loader waiting for a construction machine,
as it slowly trundled along the road,
up the ramp,
mission complete,
and the traffic can now flow in both directions again, then home feet up for the first of tonight's DVD's,
Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, we have of course watched it before, but I did not want to watch any of our new DVDs till Diana returns, in case you have not seen it, the second in the series has Captain Jack Sparrow reminded he owes a debt to Davy Jones, who captains the flying Dutchman, a ghostly ship, with a crew from hell,
followed by The Silence of the Lambs, a young FBI agent Clarice Starling is assigned to help find a missing woman to save her from a psychopathic serial killer who skins his victims, thoroughly watchable, just a shame at the end she enters a situation that in real life would never happen without back up, then for me, off to bed.
