On Sunday 27 May, Sheila and Geoff took the train back to Newcastle. This time to meet Chris Robinson, the artist who has linked Forthview with Hle Bee School, and his wife, Dang. Dang and Chris married in Chiang Mai this year and it was lovely to meet Dang.
Chris was full of great advice about how to get around Thailand, how to deal with the heat, what to wear, what vaccinations to get and who to meet. In fact, we talked so much we missed the train back to Scotland!
Chris also gave me some amazing illustrated stories from the Burmese children to match the Forthview's children's stories about 'How the Chair got to Scotland'.
