The soap! As Rooney has pointed out, I forgot to mention that the bar of soap forced some sort of reaction in the water pools beneath the ground causing the Geyser to explode. This is apparently how it was discovered in the first place as two explorers were washing in the geyser when one dropped the soap (apparently by accident but we've all heard of the soap on a rope stories! Prison Boys!) anyway to summarise the soap makes it explode!

Crying with laughter Jacquesy mate, you are fcuking comedy genius!! I am sitting now, in my cousin's plush apartment, about to watch a film on his 50" plasma. However, i cant help but feel that the experience of the lady repeller would be something to behold, and quality in its own right!!!

Street Sellers You're going to have to get used to people trying to sell you things, its not that unusual in Asia!! Weird that you're surprised by it...
Start how you intend to go on. Jacquesy, You legend. Sounds like you've started the trip with a bang. The lady repeller sounds like a geat place to stay. That was just one night out of the next 547 days.

I am a 23 year Business graduate from Bournemouth University in England. Before embarking on the real world (work) I have decided to spend a year or two travelling the world.
I plan to go to Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and Loas. Hopefully I will still have money after all of this to continue my travels further...but I will concentrate on landing in Hong Kong on the 1st of December to begin with.
Looking forward to chillin with the budda in HK, surfing with the Great Whites in Oz, boarding down the slopes in NZ and some Ping Pong in Thailand - bring on... full info
