Hi there donkeys!! i say donkeys cause it's been DONKEYS since i last scribbled this blog...my bad...i blame the turtles - all fell apart when the 'turtles' came to town! For those of you not in the know I'm referring to the surprise visit from Juuuuuuuuuuules, Rat, Cheese, Ass and Bretmobile! A good bunch of crazies...and what crazy times we had! I'm under strict instructions from Slime to keep this short as so much has happened that all your eyeballs are sure to tumble out should i go into detail-overload on every adventure! So...here goes nothing! Starting with the last few [View Full Entry]

Hi there badgers!! Shucks - sorry we've been quiet - also managed to lose the cell phone (mobile - for the pommie crew!) which is awesome - makes getting in touch all that much easier! Any hoot - will hopefully purchase a 1 x cheapie when we hit Krabi so will keep you all posted! Right - I'm not going to give you the full run down as folk are drinking Changs on the beach without me (and Gary) - if i stay too long I'll have to play catch up and Jules would have munched all the snacks!! Yip the [View Full Entry]

Why hi there badgers! They be fleecing me top dollar to use this wee (super slow) internet cafe but i wanted toquickly check in and scribble this biking adventure before i forget its face! (by the by currently in Don Det - 4000 islands, Southern Laos -left Sime, beer in hand in his hammock reading his book so round about now hes having a fat nap). Last time i rambled we were in Vientiane watching crazy Laos folk charge down the river in their dragon boats. Quite something to see but holy balls was it hot that day - 38C and [View Full Entry]

Hi there badgers! Blog time again - now in Vientiane. Happy to report that Slime has stopped scratching (he's now sniffing instead - caught a cold from the fan in our room!) - hence you're hearing from me again (sigh) - Slime only busts out when he gets attacked by wild creatures (so here's hoping he never blogs again!) It's been donkeys since i last scribbled so I'm going to have to limit this here tale to the key events else it will be dark by the time i finish and i won't get to sweat myself to death on the [View Full Entry]

OK, so as Em said - I have a small tale to tell. I could have just let her tell it, but it was a very personal experience I hold close to my heart. So as I'm sure Em said - the guide told us we could ride on the roof if we wanted. Since I've fallen on my head in the past, I of course thought this was an AWESOME idea! So we climbed on the roof an charged off. It was the first true 'highlight' of the trek and we were all stoked. Then after a while of hanging [View Full Entry]

Why hi there donkeys! It is i - back with the jungle blog! Holy moly - let me just say that i have never encountered a jungle fraught with so much peril - SOOO many hairy canaries but jolly good fun! I'm going to try my best to keep this brief as i am literally COOKING - frying my melons off here in Chiang Rai - very chilled little town up North but damn it's hot! We went to this cool wat today (what what you say...wat meaning temple for all you non speaking Thai folk like myself) - i bought [View Full Entry]

Top of the eve monkeybutts! So here i sit back at good ol SK House in Chiang Mai - very odd chairs they have here just so you know - super low which would make sense if the Chiang Mai-ans were giants but they are most certainly not of the giant variety! Anyhoo, enough of Chiang Mai giants - hope everyone is fine and dandy - we are back to fine and dandy status thank holy goat! Think my last bit of blog action was on Friday - Slimey's birthday me thinks... well the very next day we decided to pack [View Full Entry]

Guess who's been throwing up like a mad donkey?! Hell yes - it's awesome...not really!! Wow - haven't felt this rotten in ages...and...what i don't get is that Sime in his drunken state will munch liver and heart - dude pulls up on the side of the road and cooks it off the back of his bicycle - and the mutt is hundreds!! Just not fair i say! Anyhoot - feel a little bad as it's Slimey's birthday today - we were supposed to be on a 3 day trek through rainforests and jungles and riding ele's (Big Stans for those [View Full Entry]

Hi there troopers! Shucks - I don't know quite where to start - it's only been 2 days since we left and yet I already have so many stories - best strap on the reading goggles...mind you I'm racing against the lock here -can't be spending all my baht updating you guys - just pulling your socks! So the big finally arrived on Wednesday - had me a fat cry and headed off to catch our Boeing. Was a proper stress-head in the morn - was up at 4am trying to check Slime and I in only to find out that [View Full Entry]
