first of all sorry for my lack of contact, and sencond, happy new year and i hope that you all had a good x mas!
yep once again i'm back in bangkok! i'm begining to get alittle attached to this city, i do love it so! my sister arrived in bangkok on the 18th of dec for a couple of weeks! so the only way to introduce her to bangkok was to sink a couple of bottles of thai whiskey, and then carry my little sis home!
from bangers we got the night train upto chaing mai to await the arrival of the mighty snake (jake)! we managed to find ourseleves a really bad bar that had an awefull covers band! i don't care if i never hear the balck eyed peas again in my life ever! their turing into another jack johnson, stalking me everywhere i go in thailand! so on the snakes arrival we dragged him to the same bar, were he proclaimed his undying love for justin timberlake! i don't know you think you know someone and then they spring that on you! all i have to say to you my friend is norwich!
we
Kho samet
if you look closey anough i'm sure you'll see a man in a thong! did some speed touism around chiang mai, waving at wats as we flew by and then sinking some beers! uhm beer! then it was of to our christmas destination of pai! pai is stunning surrounded by mountains, hot springs and waterfalls! it's only a small town with not alot in it, so we hired scooters and booted it around the hills, sorry there are no pictues as their on my manual camera, but take my word for it the place is stunning!
the day before christmas eve, the unthinkable happened! it was election day in the pai district, and they've just got themselves a new chief of police. a younger whipper snapper from bangkok who is trying to the climb the ladder as fast as possible! so in his attempt to do this he is impossing rules/laws that don't happen anywhere else in thailand! one such rule is that no where in the pai district was allowed to sell alochol for two days while the election was on to try stop the thai's from getting pissed and not voting! and this applied to us aswell! so all the way up to christmas day there was no liquor to be
New years eve!
i think this is new years! dam those buckets! seen! so much for christmas cheer!
christmas day was alittle odd as it didn't really feel like christmas sitting there in the sun! but we made the most of it though! while most of you were tucking into your christmas dinner, the three of us were out on the street, eating stickey rice and pork on a stick!
from pai it was back down south to an island called kho samet! there are better islands than this one but it did have sand, sea and plenty of sex tourist, plus so many western holiday makers you wouldn't believe! but i'm not complaining!
then bangers on the 30th of december for new years! and man did it kick off, and thats excluding the bombs!! sitting in our guesthouse i saw this great big pink think walk past the front of our guest! i thought to myself, i know that pink thing, theres only one pink thing like that i've ever seen! so i ran out to the street and caught up with the lumbering beast, and sure anough there was it was, the lesser spotted pink aussie! a mate of mine from when i was working on phi
New years eve!
an english disgrace! phi two years ago! it's a small world. and then maddness began!
believe it or not in all my time in thailand i've never been to a pinkg pong show, but as gem and snake where here for the first time and i'd never been before, we thought on new years eve we'd go and have a goose! so the three of us and the pink oone went along! it really is one of the worst things i've seen! they did things with ping pong balls bananas, pins on string! where they thought this up i really dont know!
when we got in there, i was acosted by three girls all trying to get money out of me, and the like, i looked over to the other guys to try and get some help! they just laughed! cheers guys! eventually they gave up and went away! James and snake got badgered by a ladie boy, not that they new this, and when they said that they were gay to try and get rid of her, she said 'that alright i'm a ladie boy!'
it all kicked of though, when i thought that it would be funny to
the power of love!
buckets, making ladie boys attractive since arriving in bangkok! film a little bit on my camera! so slyly i started to film! not sly anough appahently! one the of the girls came over took my camera away so i chased it and snatched it back, after this we got berated by this one ladie, i wont say what she was saying for fear of offending people and being tacken of travel blog, but it was pretty harsh! so it was time for us to leave, quick smart! when we got outside i found that someone in there had slapped chewing chum into the back of my hair! i was livid, but eventually concided that i probably deserved what i got!
so we went back to kho san road, where i pormptly passed out by 11.30, not even seeing in the new year. i was lovingly carried home by friends, and i slept like a ferral child! the next few days concisted of pretty much the same minus the ping pong show! one night we managed to offend some germans by snorting whiskey, this was a bit to much for them so they promptly left!
gem left on the third at 4 in the morning so we didn't
Kho samet
sunset on kho samet let her get any sleep! she got ingaged to the pink auzzie and then flew home! then there was three! snake left on the 4th, leaving just two raging alco's who endured the worst two days going cold turkey! yeaturday the pink one went to conquer the nam, good luck bro! so now i'm on my own in bangers!
in a couple of days though, i'm of to lands a new, cambodia to be prosice! i need to get out of thailand before i never leave! need to get bcak on the road and see some new stuff!
hope your all cool. the next blog should be a little more cultral than all this headanism! take it easy everyone. from a slighty shaking english man! LONG LIVE THE KING!!
ps there is a distinct lack of goats in thailand! most disappointing!
