Thanks, and a request

We have received a few very nice gifts here in Bangkok since Jack was born. Thanks.

If others are thinking about sending anything, and we are not expecting anything, but if you are, and again, this is not a subtle call for us to be showered with gifts, but if you are, please send them to Vientiane where we will see them just in time for Christmas.

Duty on things sent from overseas seems to run to about 33%, and we just can't afford your generosity.

Hehehe....duty.
