Hail all,

Yay we have gai jin, but might sell it to an unsuspecting traveler if the whim takes us!!!

31st sounds fine to me. Stay longer if you like and frolic with the pals, though we may be forced to do the diving trip on the pure paradise beaches without you!!!!

All the germans i have met have been either surly and sour faced (not an inclining of any sort of humour or oersonality) or loud and brash, diregarding anyone elses personal comfort on any bus travel!!!!! There was one ok one in india, but she was a tree hugger type!

So you weasled out of your job did you??? Craven that you are. It is not as cheap as they portend it to be here, and one dollar will get you probable a kick in the teeth but mahaps an orange rind. For the real good stuf like a grotsville bedroom which is like an incinarator it is so hot, on ko san road with music blaring in at all hours and the stench of unwashed sheets in your nostrie you must pay through the nose and it necesitates many a trip to the money baring tree. Geoff is just recovering from the last trip!

We stayed at the grand guest house, but will look those other places up for when you come over.

We checked out siam square. Many a snazzy shop all air con. WE slipped into macky D’s by mistake and were force fed burgars!!!

Good pics boglar. I could do with on right now actually!

Liv, sounds fairly epic, did many a training session go into that? Good luck for sat. Have you asked granny to come and watch you???? If not get on the phone, she would like to i’m sure. Or you could just phone to say you got in. By the way, I hope you are sending copiouse amounts of cards to granny from NZ Jul??

Or should it be smaller?

Just enjoying one of these now. Is this the right pixel count?

wierd dream mama, no doubt i would have been fooled if tan had not given the game away.

jst read you e-mail tan. my source tels me that kohsan road is quality and the place to stay is iether DND’s or Sawadee. spelling may be diferent. siam square has good shopping and goeff should checkout Pantip-good electronics. he also recomended thai boxing. 700 bart at lumpini and ratachani stadiums.

my god. who the hell are those people in that kew garden photo?! it looks like an extract from some sort of demonic nightmare. it enough to make me bring up my lunch. and whats with my hair? why is it pink? insane. my hair at the momant is a crisp gold. i would have sent my photos to day, but i forgot to bring them with me.
when i saw the picture i let out an insane cackle of loughter, and now people are looking.

as spoken by liv: “Germans have no sense of humour.” i shall now have to fly back to england and kill you with your own shoes. yesterday i loughed so hard that i hurt my stomac quite badly. one day i shall recount the tale of the “bonecarver”, and lo, you to will be cleansed.
this tennis extravaganza sound a bit “hot damn” to me.

tan, i change my flight to the 31st, i hope this meets with your aproval. in fact people are urgeing me to stay evan longer. can you possibly answer the question i have posed many times before. DO YOU HAVE GAI-JIN?!

not much has happened in the last few days becouse i have been working in what seems to be an entirly new level of hell.

the tenth level of hell-orange wood.

an all pervading stench of year old armpit serounds you, demons continually belch garlic breath into you face. poisen is in thick blinding clouds in the air, choking you and making you eyes bleed. the “poor” suffer in this level, eternaly moving to the will of an overseer and aloud no respite. carcogen roam this circle, ever serching with their flaming eyes.

i didn’t like this much so i quit today. huzah! i feel like a new man.

right i am off to gather more fruit from the everlasting money tree known as a “bank” and unto the super market i shall go. tonight i shall craft a meal of such splender as to send the taster insane with delight. not a bad thing i say.

You’ll all be glad to know that I got in to the roses tennis team:-) Tho it is only the seconds. Of course, I’d be in the firsts if it wasn’t for politics;-)

I play at 10am on sat. Much excitement.

Went out last night for nancy’s (girl we live with) birthday; very nice posh restaurant – we all wore suits. Chris and I had vodka-martinis before the meal – most classy. (they were stirred tho, which wasn’t really acceptable!)

took quite a few photos and finished my film (from val thorens). If I can get the use of a scanner, I’ll blog some photos.

Dodman, when you upload photos, keep them to a max width of 490 pixels if possible.
