Bangkok. |

IBM Mobile Office - when Neil joined
IBM Thailand he was given a "Mobile Office". We always
wondered if it was really a lunch box ... |

Which do you think - an office or a
lunch box? |

Star Wars -
when Revenge of the Sith was released in June Neil went to the
opening in Wellington |

It was a big shock to see Darth Vader
and a Storm Trooper at the premiere |

But they turned out to be nice guys;
we got friendly enough for a group photo |
|
Neil went back to Bangkok because of the
fire; while it was sad
to see the house like that we were thrilled to see each other
again |

We went on a river cruise; Usa & Rex
seem happy |

Usa by herself |

Roger was happy to
be in the breeze |

Rex can turn on a smile anytime ... |

but the truth was he wasn't too happy
with the food, as shown here... |

... but he seemed
OK later |

For some reason Roger has trouble
opening his eyes for photos |

Neil tried blonde hair in BKK, but no-one
liked it |
Not Used |
On the way back to Wellington Neil stopped
in Sydney to see his Dad |

Dad lives right at the end of Sydney
harbor ... |

... and has the Gladesville Bridge in
the background |

Not bad looking for
a guy who's 79 |

We even got a rare
photo together |
