Where Does All The Money Go?

we are off to the bank again,



 so we parked up near Boys Town,


Diana decided to stay with the bike whilst I went into the bank, surprisingly Diana noticed that the owner of the bike parked next to us had left his/her keys in the bike, I hope it was still there when they returned,


we had already decided to have a late breakfast/early lunch at the Pattaya Beer Garden, it is behind the first complex of bars that you pass as you are going to Walking Street from Beach Road, this is the shrine you see on your right as you walk in,


the view of the beach past the water treatment works, unfortunately sand has been washed away from the beach but hopefully it will be replaced in the future,


 the entrance to the Beer Garden,


 Diana, hotels before the Sanctuary of Truth in the distance,


 one of the many speed boats in the bay,


 our meal has arrived,


 a huge club sandwich with lots of chips for Diana,


 a beer, well it was past 1.00 in the afternoon for me, along with a prawn cocktail,


 some new cladding was being fitted to the television supports at the beginning of Walking Street,


 a quick trip into Boots for Diana,


 then on the way back we saw some of those nice little oranges that are imported from China for sale, so we just had to stop off and buy some,


 shortly after we arrived home, Grieg, Nok and Jing called in to say Hi,


 Jing was fascinated with the fish,


 so he had to feed them lots of food,


 in both aquariums, we watched a DVD with them, Jing laughing at the antics of Alex the lion and friends,


after our evening meal we made our way to the Punch & Judy, we had decided to have our Christmas dinner there, we being Nick and Maureen plus myself as Diana would be in the Philippines with her folks as she has not had a Christmas with them for the past three years, so I had to drop off a deposit for the meal,


we had already eaten, but Diana could not resist a chocolate dessert, to keep her weight down we shared it


this was the DVD we watched with Grieg and his family Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, Alex the Lion, Marty the Zebra, Melman the Giraffe and Gloria the Hippo, still stranded on Madagascar, start to leave the island, in a plane piloted by the penguins, all of a sudden, they land in the wilderness of Africa, great animation we all, especially Jing loved it,


X-Men: The Last Stand was next, the special effects department pulling out all of the plugs, humans have discovered what causes humans to mutate, they have found a cure for the mutation, the war begins,


we then watched the final part of Yellowstone, absolutely magnificent filming and narration, we were both spell bound, I have to admit in all honesty when we bought this I was thinking I would not find it that interesting, but I was so wrong, then for us off to bed.
