Jim Thompson was a general all round good guy who disappeared under mysterious circumstances. His house is a museum and very quaint it is too. Actually, it turns out he was probably run over by a truck in Malaysia, so not very mysterious after all.

I appreciate that my general household chores are not really […]

This should hopefully have a bit of random video in it. Can you email me and let me know if it works. I’ll try posting something that is of vague interest if you can actually see it! Note that little sisters and others on low bandwidth connections may have to wait some time.
