It’s been a while since I’ve done any re-reviews and there will be a couple in this Meet The Manufacturer.

What was neat in Thailand was that the steering wheel in cars is on the opposite side. As many of you know, I have really bad eyesight and don’t drive – so this was a rare chance for me to sit in what I’m used to being the driver’s seat – in a moving vehicle!
