PS And for aviation fans there were lots and lots and lots of MiG-21s and Su-22s under the harden shelters left by the imperialist Yankees and their puppet government, sadly on the wrong side of our a/c to photograph. Plus a couple of Su-22s that looked like they were in alert sheds, bad pic but they were a very fetching shade of blue!

And a US C-17 with lots of suitcases being loaded so US peeps prob heading home.

And it’s almost GOOOOOOOODBYYYYYYYE THAILAND. Sitting on the Thai lounge waiting on our ride home. Back to foot deep grass, piles of post and something called an election! Also hoping that the heating is going to work in the house it’s showing 12c outside, gaff isn’t going to be much warmer! It’s going to be a long day, got to change in Zurich (price of doing a cheap-seats flight), resisting the urge to ask “are we there yet?”!
It’s been a good jolly, enjoyed getting back to SE Asia. It’s deffo going to be a culture shock getting home but needs must.
Catch y’all on the flip side and will bung up some pics from Bangkok once home.

There’s half a ton of coal and several hundred litres of heating oil, all under lock and key. That should last a few days.

Sorry for delay in posting final pics, been up to armpits emptying out Heeland Gaff as it was sold today. Sorry Nige and R01, it went with a load of wood, far too much oil and about half a tonne of coal, literally!!
One gratuitous pic before I upload the last ones.

And no, still not over jet lag. And yes, it might be 20c outside but the heating is on!!
