Hello people,

Tan sent me out to Blog while she relaxes in the lateral position!
You’re flying to Bangkok now on the 16th June are you Jul? Will have to charge you many ingots of gold to come and collect you as we’ll probably already have headed south!!! But no problem though.

I’m just going out to celebrate the fact that I won’t be around to watch that drivel Big Brother 4. Glad to hear it won’t be polluting my TV screen when I get back.

Message to mama from Tan: we’re enjoying the great food from the market stalls. Very tasty. Possible to get starter, main and dessert from 3 different stalls. Tapioka is very tasty!

Liv: sorry if I poured torrents of abuse on your favourite programme. i just can’t stand big bro. Makes my blood run cold…

hail dod,

Thats exactly what it was like.
Jul: Tan frequently throws me in front of anything that might be dangerous. Sent me out last night on some mundane task and I got semi-attacked by a dog!!! However I raised my foot ready to dole out a hefty blow, and it decided to cower in a corner!

Geoff

Hail all,

I am in favour of annikas method of fending of dogs. I often put whatever poor victime is walking with me infront f any dog in the hope that i will make good my escape while it is knawing on that persons leg!!!! I found myself doping this to an almost complete stranger al well!!!

Mama, thanks for the advice, i’ll look out for apis and take a couple of rescue remadies and arnicas. WE are in laos at tghe moment in luang prebang. The journaey on the boat woul dhave been nice with good scenery and stuff if it hadn’t been so long!!. You basically got a wooden bench sizable for one. This ad to be shared. Two 7-8 hr stints in this hell machine it took us to get here! It was woth t though as this town is really nice. The people are ver nice, the most pleasent and friendly we have encountered so far in SEA. We are having a leisurly walk around town seeing the temples today, and then on to a waterfall tomorrow. Then vang vien, and then onto viebntien i think. we will then head to the south of thai;and for a stint on the beaches!!! Having a gtrweat time and eeling fresh as a daisy apart from the sweating (inevitable!)

Jul- how about this meeting us in thailand? are you going to come or have you decided to reside in NZ on a permanent basis???? We are going to be heading into malasia on around the 20-25 of june, so can meet you up till then. Let me know what you have planned, but feel free to change your flight if you like.

Dod -taking it easy and feeling fine.\

Mama – you would love the market and food stalls here. Such veriety and colour. I will write a letter about it all.

Am going to buy silk scalfs for granny and mamie here.

Love to all,
Tanya

will read the e-mails next time Mam as havn’t got them yet.

Phew feeling relieved that Tan is ok now.

Gonna try to work out how to get inside an adapter that doesn’t have any screws to open it. Ridiculous design I say!!

Jul: stay as long as you like if you don’t mind finding your own way to Bali!!taxi from airport to ko san road should be around 60 B – don’t pay if they try to charge you more or take you to the wrong place!!!

Otherwise if you want us to come and get you, we’ll be in south THailand until about 20th-25th June.

yay, many anti hystamines with me.

six hour time difference you say?????????????

going to look for changer now.

Can give you the number if you can;t find it, but you should be able to.

I can distinctly remenber you asking for the insurence papers, and going out and photocopying you the lot and you stapling it to your ‘file’!
