Sure Kev,
I'll continue to keep you all in the loop via this thread. There's been nothing to report as of late; my missus has been in touch with Mint over the phone and will see her again over the weekend before she leaves on the 5th. She's doing fine, by the way.

Here are some photos taken by Henning on his many road trips around the country:

Thanks kerouac2,
I'm currently reading the food post that Henning contributed to on your site, I'm up to page 125 of 200+ pages.
Some rather good stuff in there.
Regards
Kev
I refuse to go out with nothing more than a whimper followed by a small farting sound and a shit stain on my bed sheets..
Just thought I'd share that with you.

Kerouac - did you put together the video? Nice underlying music , too.

Yes, I made the video -- and I plan to make one devoted to Henning's food photos as well!

Here's a brief update on Mint after she called my wife a couple of days ago.
She'd been in Thailand about 3 weeks now, living with her sister. She reports that's she's quite bored; having been away so long she feels she has no friends and there's nothing for her there. She suggested that she'd prefer to return to Cambodia and start a small business such as roadside stall serving basic food. She realises that the money we raised for her doesn't extend to starting a business so was perhaps hinting that it would be nice if friends or family of Henning could help out.
My personal response to this is that whilst I don't doubt her culinary talents, I can't see how she'd make a success of such a project when she can't speak Khmer. Also, there's her health to consider. It seems to me that if she wanted to start such a business it would male more sense to do it in Thailand.
Maybe she's just feeling disorientated at the moment; suffice to say that whilst we ourselves don't feel inclined to support her current idea, I'm putting it out here so that anyone who feels differently and wants to make a financial contribution can contact me to facilitate it.

Here is the video that I made of Henning's food photos --
There will probably be a second video on the subject sooner or later because that is fewer than half of his restaurant and dinner-at-home photos!

Having just read Andy's post, I would like to add that on the video, the photos taken on the white tile background (the floor?) are the dinners that Mint prepared.

thanks kerouac2. I got to 2min 50s and had to stop as I haven't eaten yet. I'll view all 12+ minutes on a full stomach!
Out of curiosity, how much would a person need to set themselves up with a roadside stall?

I got an email from Henning's sister who informs me she and her son will be revisiting Cambodia during August, and will be flying in on the 29th of this month. I'd certainly like to meet up with them again; if any of Henning's old friends, especially those who attended the scattering of his ashes with his family would like to arrange a gathering, please post here and we'll make something happen.

She did for a short while before returning to Thailand. I'll not say more about her on the forum.Starving Pelican wrote:How's Mint these days? Did she return to PP?
