Rat on the Road

It started in November 2006, when we quit our jobs, rented out our house, sold our belongings and set off in search of adventure in South East Asia.

Little monkeys!
We once had a monkey steal a packet of BBQ hoop crisps from a partially open rucksack, scamper up a tree and open them and sit eating them! They really can be scary especially when they crowd around and go a bit crazy. Luckily as fellow Brits, we too know the danger of rabies and carrying bananas and avoid wherever possible ;) You have to laugh at the wellbeing bullsh*t spouted in Ubud...would be an interesting colonic irrigation with 2 sugars, milk and a Hobnob, but maybe Rich Tea would be better to try as they do dissolve more in tea/coffee? Have fun on the rest of your trip!

Some photostory!

That's true.
I never considered a rich tea.... Now a good coffee enema sounds all the more believable.
