Happy Birthday To Maureen!

to celebrate we popped over to see her and Nick,

so off we went,

but first a stop at the flower stalls in Pattaya Central Road, for a pot of orchid plants in flower,

whilst there I had to have a look at some of the bonsai,

there were so many to chose from,

lots of other plants as well,

then to Maureen's for a drink by the pool, her birthday plants in the background,

it was so hot I had to take my shirt off,

then Sunday lunch, Maureen had cooked a leg of lamb, it was delicious,

followed by chocolate chip ice cream,

'Cheers!',

we also enjoyed cheese, biscuits and celery,

Ta-Taa loves cheese,

then a game or two of Monopoly, Diana won the first game,

then Nick won by a huge amount the second, look at all of his hotels!

so he received the championship trophy,

it took forever putting the money back in the box, he had more than the bank! a great time was had by all, many thanks to Maureen for preparing such a lovely meal, we stayed the night and left first thing in the morning,

Ta-Taa was too tired to say bye, but we had to go, there is another birthday party today and we have to get ready.
