Well, Kiwiflyer did it - though it sounds like he had quite a measure of good fortune on his side!

I'm not a comfortable guinea-pig. And as Nick points out, I'd be a completely stuffed guinea-pig if I had to wave bye-bye to a departing TG B777.

So I think i'll sacrifice a day out of my already shrinking stay in BKK. I really didn't want to do that, as 1 night in KTM seemed a bit useless: I wouldn't have time to differentiate it from the chaos of the Indian cities I know.

But a friend came up with the idea of turning my back on the city and heading to Nagarkot, where the scenery should compensate for the dislocation from BKK, and where longer than one day would be over-kill.

Thanks for the advice - and sorry to whimp out of the experiment!
