The Mighty Mekong.

Chiang Khong, Thailand


Nuttter arrives in the luxury of an AIR-CONDITIONED VAN to Chiang Khong today. A border town between Thailand (good-bye) and Laos (Hello!).

Chiang Khong is a popular back-packing village/town/collection-of-small-buildings clinging to the mighty Mekong River, abound with spectacular views of the river and surrounding mountainous forestation. Replete with secluded waterfalls that provide welcome relief from the sweltering humidity for locals and travellers alike. The cool fresh water, piped directly from Evian I am told, thunders over volcanic rock into pleasant estuaries and pools. probably.

MOZZIE BITE TALLY: 1. "Cutter Advanced" has proved it's worth in Field testing so far.

AT HOME:
The office is well on the way to being in much the same state as Spare Um. Skirting board and window frames gone, the ceiling is cringing at that dormant hammer lying on the floor beneath it. It knows what's next.
