Another problem

It is a well used cliche; 'it never rains but it pours!' As I write this blog Khamma and I should be sat on our return flight to Bangkok after a restful holiday. I should be thinking ahead to the next project in Hong Kong airport which commences on Monday and Khamma should be looking forward to meeting the family and sharing her stories of England. We should be reflecting that over the last six weeks we have been in Singapore, Thamuang and England. We have had a great time and enjoyed being together, but we are having a bad run of luck!

We were burgled on Monday morning and still dealing with the admin, but even worse is the news that yesterday Khamma was admitted into hospital with a severe kidney infection. She was quite ill but we did not expect we would have to delay our return to Asia. The important thing is Khamma is slowly getting better and we have taken a flyer that she will be fit to travel next Thursday. This is not the ideal ending to the holiday we had planned for, but thankfully we did not ignore her symptoms otherwise she could have been in severe pain 11,000 metres above Iran or somewhere.

I am looking on the bright side but can't really see any lights on at the moment. I am relying on my naturally optimistic outlook and calling on the reserves of patience. But I suppose it could be worse, I could be a Manchester City fan (City 0 Notts Forest 3). Ouch!
