He announced he would be back this month, on his birthday, July 26 or around there.
Jim posted confidently many times that Tony would be a free man in Thailand on that day but Jim's gone quiet lately.
That could be because he's away in Paris, cleaning the gravestone of the great man on the anniversary of his death yesterday.
How Tony could come home a free man?
A pardon from the top perhaps, with an amnesty passed in Parliament by PT, Bhumjaithai, plus some other MPs persuaded with some pieces of silver.
The trouble is PT haven't got the coveted House Speaker's post to set Parliamentary business and the watch collector can't seem to stay awake long enough to be PM.
