Daylight robbery

Today, JB and I became yet another statistic in Thailand's roll call of crime....

We were minding our own business, enjoying an afternoon's climbing, when we were mugged by a monkey.

The kleptomaniac beast made off with a bag containing our day's ration of pineapple and also, more upsettingly, a box of green curry flavoured cookies, which had formed part of JB's  valentine's day gift.  ( And before you judge me too harshly, there weren't that many options and the petrol stations were all shut.....)

JB gamely gave chase and managed to retrieve the cookies, but the pineapple was gone....

I won't pretend that we haven't been affected by this crime. Some of you will know that we suffered similarly at the paws of a badger last Summer.

Enough is enough. Tomorrow we leave for Kuala Lumpur, where (we hope) people can enjoy pineapples unmolested.....
