Sunday Again,

so we are out for Sunday lunch,


 Mr. Tony very kindly gave us a lift to Soi Lengkee, 

 where we parked in the hotel car park that was opposite what once was the China Garden restaurant, 

 but is now called Steak & Co,


it was a shame to see the Chinese lanterns in the back of a pick up waiting to be taken away,

 in the car park I noticed this scooter,

 it looked like it had come straight from the 1970s,

 we walked towards Soi Bukaow,

 and across it,

 and made our way down Soi Diana,

 to the The Robins Nest,

 where we were joined by Slim Jim,

 the three of us decided on the 3 course carvery,

 whilst Diana chose from the menu,

 burger and chips,

 followed by ice cream,

 or in Diana's case a chocolate mousse,

I had to have a latte coffee,

another great meal, after saying our goodbyes to Slim Jim we made a move home where the three of us watched a couple from the Police Squad! series, then after saying our farewells to Mr. Tony,

we had a real treat, The Grand Budapest Hotel, loosely based on a book by Stefan Zweig, (1881-1942), The World of Yesterday, although the original book was not exactly a comedy, this film was and we both really enjoyed it, 

we had decided to watch the football match, it started for us here in Thailand at 02.00 in the morning so we watched 4 episodes of Life on Mars till the start of the game, I will be the first to confess that I have absolutely no interest in sport what so ever, but this was the world championship, the best of the best of the best, so we gave it ago, it was mid way through the second half that Diana made a comment, 'there not very good are they?' I must admit it all seemed rather dull, but we saw it through, but as the second half of extra time started we had enough so at well after 04.00 in the morning we called it a day, I must remember not to stay up for the next one in 4 years time, with that we were off to bed.
