MOULD!!!

Ok, so Sandra and I have returned from our trip to Bangkok. EVerything was fine and peachy. Or so we thought. We come back to the apartment and Kyaw Kyaw had been cleaning. Turns out we had mould in almost all cupboards. Mould on our backpacks, on some clothes, on Sandra's camera case etc etc. He's done some cleaning up so we didn't even see the worst of it. But now, 2 weeks later Sandra found mould on one of her glasses cases. What the H*LL is mould doing on something like that? So Sandra asked around for something that could help with this problem. After all, in her logical way of thinking this country should have something against it. This isn't the first rainy season that they ever had. But no was the asnwer everywhere. Even and the big supermarket that we found a while back and which turns out to be not at all for from where we live. Eventually Sandra asked the guy that does all the maintenance and arranges all the things in school. His answer was also 'No'. So, in a kind of desperation' she asked him what they do when they have mould everywhere. 'Wash everything often' was his answer. Sandra's was still convinced that there must be an easier way. There was he said, but that meant buying things in Thailand or China that are not available on the market here. Nice, we have just returned from there. Another 8 weeks to go before we're heading back that way for our next visa run. And by that time, rainy season will almost be over *sigh*
