The irony of you going to the Dawn Service at Hellfire Pass, knowing your Grandpa entered Thailand as a POW on Anzac Day in 1943, and also knowing that you're most likely retracing his footsteps on the infamous Burma Railway, is both amazing and sobering. As Paulo Coelho says in "The Alchemist", there are no such things as coincidences. The modern day parallels with the treatment of the Karenni are scary. <BR/>Your painful encounter with the centipede adds another to your list of woes. Sorry for passing on the clutz gene - you can blame me.<BR/>Love DadAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11096139.post-1114081594939303572005-04-21T19:06:00.000+08:002005-04-21T19:06:00.000+08:00Hi Mel, it's good to see that you're prepared to g...Hi Mel, it's good to see that you're prepared to go to some lengths to fully identify with the ailing and failing, Your Mother's flight into the unknown can only really be described as potentially I.C.UISH, however I can now understand the medical value of chocolate; remember, wine heals all wounds, ColAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11096139.post-1114081546689890632005-04-21T19:05:00.000+08:002005-04-21T19:05:00.000+08:00Hi Mel, it's good to see that you're prepared to g...Hi Mel, it's good to see that you're prepared to go to some lengths to fully identify with the ailing and failing, Your Mother's flight into the unknown can only really be described as potentially I.C.UISH, however I can now understand the medical value of chocolate; remember, wine heals all wounds, ColAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11096139.post-1114080371938774332005-04-21T18:46:00.000+08:002005-04-21T18:46:00.000+08:00Well - we knew you may be exposed to some dangers ...Well - we knew you may be exposed to some dangers but didn't realise it would be this difficult ...!! Hope all your wounds are starting to heal and that you will not encounter any similar problems in the coming weeks. We are back home after an interesting trip, I did manage to do a rather spectacular head-first dive after tripping on the board walk at the Dove Lake walk near Cradle Mtn, but only suffered a lump on the head and a bruised knee - who said it was hereditary??
