In-Laws Meet Alex

Category: Friends,Kazakhstan,Personal,PicturesChrisM @ 9:46 pm

Just noticed I appear to be posting these pictures in reverse order – the earlier posts have the most recent piccies, and this post has photos from towards the beginning of Alex’s stay here. I have deliberately left out quite a few days and subjects, as I want Alex to have them on her blog, especially as most are from her camera!

Anyway, that is a shot of the three of us in the back garden, probably just having being fed a lot of nice food, with a little to drink.

Here we have the ferocious guard dog, poised to rip out Alex’s throat, as she is unknown to Aynak. Well, OK, it might look like she is just licking us there, but I am sure she would have been prepared to defend her master’s property at the drop of a hat…

How Not To Have A Good Meal

Category: PersonalChrisM @ 3:06 am

1) Enjoy your nice food, have a couple of drinks.
2) Nip of to the other kitchen to have a cigarette (Babushka was eating with us)
Sounding ok so far?

3) Return and attempt to walk behind someone sat on a bench
4) Kick the bench, and end up screaming fuuuuuuuuuurrow in an attempt not to swear infront of in-laws and aforementioned babushka.

Proof?

Nail - Ow

Since the photo it has got a little more green, and still doesn’t cope very well with being walked on.
Hey ho…
