This amusing piece was posted inside the Thai Consulate at Hull

I arrived at the Consulate before they opened, got in first, obtained my METV and was riding back home by 9.30

Now to take a few photos and enjoy the ride home in a more relaxed manner

The GS took the long ride in its stride but its not the type of journey that I bought it for and it wasn't a pleasant ride for that distance.
Riding the twisty back lanes at a slower speed is much more enjoyable on it

A bit of a murky canal

Back home and its time to cook the chicken shawarma

Tonight I made a soft bread to wrap it in

Plus a sauce

A bit too much to wrap up together but it was enjoyable anyway.
Not being able to do my own cooking is one thing I really miss when I am in Thailand
 
Thanks for sharing the "History", liked that very much.

Did you ever consider towing a cart with the kitchen sink & all for your cooking needs? Might bring a new twist to your journey (and ride reports!!)

You could certainly outshine the 'Hairy Bikers', I don't think they have ever done Thailand!
