This is why I always insist on having the row on the side with just two seats, just me and Eric, to avoid horror stories like yours! Back in 1989 we were flying back from Ireland on Aer Lingus and the man next to me had the WORST body odor, I thought I was gonna die! I made Eric switch seats with me. Luckily, since Eric is a lot taller than me, his nose was way above this other guy's armpits and he was able to survive the flight.

I am SO sorry that I haven't contributed a trip report yet but I arrived in Chiang Mai on the Sunday and on the following evening I got a phone call to say that my husband had taken ill. My son was in Singapore and he told me to return to Bangkok and he would meet me there. We were told that my husband had been taken into hospital for observation but that was evidently not true for when we arrived back home he was in intensive care having suffered a heart attack.
He was only released last week so I haven't been back on to my PC other than to get emails [and to reply to Bob. Did you get my email?]
I hope Bella Bluebell sends me an email so that I can tell her of my limited experience of the Ban Oparin as I promised.
