HanoiHanoi turned out to be a pleasant surprise after seeing it in the gloomy, drizzly, dark hours of the night before. We arrived in the city at a brain numbing 3am and found ALL the hotels in the old quarter shut with shutters down. Gates were rattled, bells were pressed and the best we got was "Hotel is full, sorry". We did this aimlessly with the half hearted taxi driver for a few streets and ... Read Full Entry

I told you so

Weigh for ever....
Mate. You've been scammed... again. Did you not notice that David Bekham was the perfect weight before he took the stuff and the result... he's the perfect weight afterwards. Hence ZERO loss... You'll be the same old cuddly Julian Chong when we return... just a bit wiser.. ;0)
