    Today James had an early appointment to finish off the dental work from yesterday. I was running a bit late so ordered a bolt moped ride to the appointment. This was great fun but slightly scary weaving in between all the traffic. I came back to the hotel to meet Grace.

    We took a train down to the riverside today as we had never been to this side of the city, we had some lovely food and a walk along the old parts of Bangkok. We then took a boat down to a Christmas market, Bangkok looked amazing with all the lights coming on, great experience and only 30p each. We got to the market and had an explore. Afterwards we got in a Tuk Tuk to go home, all was going great until a very clunky bang the gearbox decided to give up and I had to jump out and push us across 4 rows of mad traffic. The driver tried to fix on side of road but had no joy, he somehow managed to hike the price up aswell amd we still had a 15 min walk home.. Dont think so 😂.
