I Dropped Diana Off,

as she wanted to go shopping,


but for me I had decided to have a look at a new Ducati dealership on Pattaya Third Road, if you travel along Third Road going towards Pattaya Central Road it is about 400 meters before the traffic lights on the left,


 actually it seems to sell aftermarket parts for Ducati, but I did not go inside, I had parked opposite,

 as I wanted to have a look in this shop,

 you guessed it! 

 that sell tropical fish,

 and I did spend 190 baht on a few to make up for some that had drifted away over the past few years,

after picking Diana up we spent the rest of the day at home, both Alex and Mark called round for a coffee and a chat, then we were off to the weekend night market on Thepprasit Road, looking towards Jomtien the skies were grey, 


 maybe rain to come,

 turning back there were a number of people advertising the opening of Index, a furniture shop that had moved to the other side of the Sukhumvit Road,

 the sky looking inland did not look too promising either,

 as I approached the bar ducks and other toys were much in evidence,

 the frogs I think they are, looking quite sad,

the kittens as happy as happy things,

opposite the bar a company selling cars and trucks this evening,

one food aisle a little bit quiet,

the second packed with people,

new for this week, this charming lady, selling an assortment of goods,

lots of necklaces,

all at just 100 baht each,

a few customers in the pet aisle,

looks like rain later, but then we are half way through the rainy season, so rain is to be expected,

next to the bar the evening leaflets were being given out to advertise the new location of Index,

and very nice,

the staff looked too,

the Index mobile van drove past as I was sitting at the bar with Brian and Diana,

it was still cloudy as we left, but luckily the rain held off,

then a treat, my evening meal, pumpernickel bread with smoked salmon, a slice of cucumber, a touch of low calorie mayonnaise and the piece de resistance, Diana's home grown tomatoes, this is the second time we have had enough to compliment a meal, with another 30 or 40 still growing, the miniature ones seem to be cropping first, but in a few more weeks the normal sized ones will be ripe enough to eat, great fun,

we then settled down for two more episodes of Life on Mars, sad to say that we are nearing the final episodes, but as usual very enjoyable to watch, then for us we were off to bed.
