We Were Out Early,

for a very good reason,

some of Diana's family have come to visit, so for the next few weeks we will be straight on with the post, into the mini bus and we were off,

 to the airport,

 if you have not been to Pattaya for a few years this is the new road that you take to the airport that rises above Sukhumvit before Pattaya North and goes to the airport and Bangkok,

 Diana taking a picture of me taking a picture of her when she is taking a picture of me, if you see what I mean, 

 headphones on and I am in 7th heaven listening to Round the Horne, so easy to listen to and so funny, well if like me you grew up with programs like this on radio before television in the 1950s,

 then we were here, going past the Thai airways building,

 to the airport in Thai,

 and English,

 we were dropped off and waited,

 and who was first out of immigration and customs? none other than Sandio,

 followed by Mum and Dioshane,

 and here they all are, one hugely happy family,

 arriving home one of the cactus had thrown up a new flower,

 such a shame that it appears that cactus can not afford to lose so much water in displaying a flower, so they have to be huge or lots of them, in any event in under 24 hours this one will be gone forever, I then popped over to Nick and Maureen's to help Nick pick a few things up, also to try out his new electronic whisk, he had made a lemon meringue to for me to take back to Diana's family,

 after settling in we were out for our evening meal, where else other than the Punch and Judy,

 for starters a few jalapeno poppers and some onion rings,

 that were enjoyed by all,

 a steak and beer pie for Sandio,

 a huge rack of ribs for Diana,

and they were huge!

 a steak each for Mum and Dioshane,

 and fish and chips for myself,

then eyes down tuck in!

'Cheers!', from all of us, we than made a move for home where we all tucked in to a delicious lemon meringue that I had picked up from Nick and Maureen's after I had dropped off Diana's family at our home, then feet up for some television, after a few horror movies, one from The Chase and 2012, as we are up early tomorrow we were all off to bed.
