New Home

Things have returned to 'normal' and the airports are back up and running and the backlog of flights lessening. Thai Airways is sueing the PAD party for huge losses. The court ruled against the government which had to stand down (though they just shuffled things around and most of the party are now a part of the care-taker government. Names for a new PM are being put forward and general elections will probably only be held next year. By no means is the unrest over though as the divide between rich and poor is still very tangible... we wait with bated breath. The King celebrated his 81st birthday yesterday but was too sick to give his customary birthday speech. Circulating rumours make him out to be weakened by bronchitis, despite media claims that he only has a cough and slight fever. Again.. we wait with bated breath...

On the home front, last night was our first dinner party with five friends. This encouraged me to make the house homey and unpack more boxes. The desk and tv stand I had designed arrived two days ago, which made a big change to our sitting room. I will let the pictures speak for themselves :-)

Our xmas tree is up, filling in an empty corner quite nicely. We are both counting down the days until the 19th for the next ultrasound and our flight home to Portugal.
