All quiet on the Eastern Front

1. A quiet day after the heat of yesterday. A really bad night of worrying about the outcome, but the little chap was not too bad for it all. We stayed in the cool all morning, and played games making funny noises. You can imagine the scene. We watchjed a little bit of baby Einstein . I do not know about delighting little ones again and again, I never tire of its imagination and ingenuity.

2. Had an hour off and went down to the big pool - oh dear forgot the lessons were on. However, I did my bit - swam up and down the 50 metre pool and then watched the lessons for a while. Karstein left for a squash tournament when I arrived back. Well an apology for a squash tournament - the chap he was playing was but 16 and had only just started. Brave lad!

3. The Bangkok News reports that Thai politics is not just about one-upmanship through money, power and guns - it is also about the battle of black magic. Then the article about how they are using black magic against the opponents!

4. I also read about an usual outsourcing. Outsourcing of British prisoners to Bangkok gaols. It costs but 7 pounds a day here compared to 750 pounds in the UK. The Americans are thinking about this kind of outsourcing too.

5. Sorry to hear about the cold. I hope it diminishes soon. What with fine weather it should do. Help I have inadvertently touched italics and cannot turn them off.

6. Good to hear that the bike has finally arrived. Give a good account after you have seen it.

7. Did you meet with Peter Neale? If so what news on that front.

8. Did I mention that Tessa's heart is OK. She is being referred on to a hormone specialist. They think it might be vaso-motor phenomenon - whatever that may be. Google was not much help.

9. Tomorrow a visit with the little chap to the hospital for a routine check-up. Maybe I will find it in myself to get up early and have a go at a run.

Keep the news coming. Take care
