Bugger these selfies
After many attempts to take a nice photo of my permanent front teeth. . This is the best I can do! My teeth are not the brilliant white I sort of wanted but I think they have done a good job, I did see an older block at the markets one day and as soon as he spoke to me I thought. .. he's had his teeth done. . And I didn't want to look like that. . So all up I've got about as good as it could get.
On Friday I get the bank teeth in. They tried them today and they need some adjusting.

A lovely night with nok and friend and my sticky Rice cooker
We had a great night with nok, beer long time friend and her mother. She introduced us to a new restaurant on the river front and different thai food and the thai mentality! They have a great sense of humour. .. nok told us that its not against the law to drink and drive. .she's always having a drink with everyone here before she goes home so I asked her if she doesn't get pulled up by the police and she said 'no I've got my helmet on', .-a great night with lots of laughs! Nok told mum that she was Australian but she has thai style!
And a picture of my sticky Rice cooker. .which they might pull me up for at the border but I'll give it my best shot cause I love it!
At the woman's prison for the best cappuchino in chiang mai
Mum almost behaving like a local waltzing straight into the priveledged parking area for bikes ordering her now daily cup of cappuchino at the woman's prison - she's found the best coffee in town!
After that a sticky Rice and mango afternoon tea.
We are talking nock and her friend and her freinds mother out to dinner tonight, at a restaurant along the ping River that nock likes. .. looking forward to it.

So that's what that was for! !!
Was mother's response when I showed her what the glasses case looked like from your photo Bob! And she went and got it, it has been the wrapper for her water heating element in the cupboard!
Now she's using it for her glasses and loves it x
