REVISITING THE TRUCKS OF VIETNAM

I'm putting a stack of Vietnam clips on Youtube as they are now the second biggest viewing country on Youtube after the UK, I just hope they click on an advert when they visit.

We are making a start on packing for the big trip at the end of the week, well Mandy has actually packed all the clothes, I'm counting on getting laundry done at the half way mark in Bangladesh. We had a nice note from Hasan, he is looking forward to our arrival and I think all things considered with the state of the country it is quite calm on our part to just do the British thing and carry on just like the posters say. There isn't anything particularly bad happening today but their pm has refused to enter into peace talks with Zia until the violence across the country ceases. Hartals are still being called in specific locations but all things considered they are just another pimple on the bigger picture. We have got a couple of suggestions of places to visit in India should turmoil descend on us otherwise its still over to Calcutta at the end. Just as I get ready for the heat the weather looks as if it is going to go downhill on Thursday and I'm meant to be heading over to the North East, perhaps if it gets back I'll change plans, in any case if I go I'll take the van as it needs a run out and is far safer with some added weight as opposed to my little sewing machine on wheels.

I spent a lot of time on the pnoe and internet today, the works printer was up the creek, all day they were trying to fix my conections when it turned out to be a wider problem only I was the only one to notice, silly old me. All the rubbish that's going on with the Scottish episode is more than enough to cope with at present, good job I've got an iron constitution, Mandy is so angry with them as well but I suppose I can sell my story to the papers it may become all like the Greek aircraft spotters all over again.

Anyway I must get that Vietnam truck stuff loaded up, the evenings just flown by, even Weebly had a wobbly on their web site as I couldn't get the correct method of posting to show on the orders received today, typical that there would be a lot, however I'm told it's a known issuer and they are working to fix it, ahh then that's everything just fine and dandy then. I've loaded masses of the Cuba material on to my Smugmug photo sales site, prints are from just 50p each.
