More close to home trouble

The above picture was taken today about 3km from our house in Thailand!!!

The authorities stopped about 1000 red shirt protestors from attending a demonstration just out side Bangkok. They used rubber bullets at the crowd and fired live rounds over their head. The red shirts in return used stones and petrol bombs.

One soldier was killed in a friendly fire incident and around 80 injured. The Foreign Office as now said that only absolutely neccessary travel to Thailand is advised until the trouble is sorted.....
