We must have been in Thailand at the same time. I've come back after being in Bangkok for three weeks teaching, and then in Khon Kaen visitng a friend. It was lovely, the weather was nice and warm, but unfortunately Bangkok is pretty horribel with all the cars and the congestions. The reason it's so miserable in the UK is because it's rained nearly every day for three months. When I got back it stopped and has been sunny, so I brought the nice wheather back with me.
