December the 16th is, in my opinion, one of the most auspicious days of the year; without it, my life would be immeasurably poorer. The reason it’s such a happy day is because it’s the birthday of three (three!) of my favourite people. I know it’s not the done thing to choose favourites but let’s face it, we all do, right? And the favouritest of them all, is the one beginning with F. Also, the word “favourite” is beginning to look as if I spelt it wrong so I’ll stop using it now. Also, it would be weird if the month of December went straight from the 15th to the 17th, don’t you think?

You won’t catch me going on about the heat. Well, not complaining at least, though if it’s hot, I do tend to state the obvious rather a lot. I think of it more as a way to remind myself of my good fortune in finding myself sweating rather than shivering. It may also be because I have a habit of repeating myself rather a lot, one of my more charming qualities I’m sure everyone will agree.

This soup has nothing to do with a line of men walking to mosque in the dark but I wanted to tell you about them, because the breeze which has been so warm and springlike of late, has tickled my brain and this is what it regurgitated.
I used to rent a little red house with a tin roof in a village in the south of Thailand where the local population is largely Muslim. The island we lived on was ringed by resorts and bungalows of varying degrees of poshness but Ban Jet-li was a collection of no more than 15 houses set only slightly inland, though it felt miles away.
