Cool Banana Bungalows Well you were right the owner is in his forties and His Fiance ( now wife)is 20 years old. We are expecting our first baby and even though there is a large age difference we are happy. We have been open now for 9 months and still have 4 of the original staff so I couldnt of been to rough on them.
The so called pedophile who was murdered was infact a journalist who had written some pretty rough articles about Cambodia. As for being a drunk, okay I confess at times I do over indulge a little and act like a dick head but there again dont we all. It maybe of intrest to note I havent had a drink for 2 months and I still get frustrated and angry with my staff occassionaly.
random Wow, you guys sound like a bunch of babys. I guess its a testament to the fact that the only way your going to have a good time in S.E.Asia is if your willing to be out of your comfort zone for extended periods of time. "I dont like Koh San RD, theres no water on this train, the bathroom isnt too my liking" WAH, I WANT MY MOMMY!!!"
maybe you should of went to Disney land.
My favourite Cristina You bring tears to my eyes! What an honour to name that buffalo after ME! I'm so jealous you got to ride that beast. Another $100 for you if you french-kiss it next time. Picture!
BAMBOO TRAIN DRIVER NEEDED I think what they were cleary missing was a qualified man for the job! Good to hear you've made it home safely. Can't wait to see you mate, I'll be back in Newy on the 1st Jan, Andrew the following week. Got a corker pressie for you my friend ....
Hope you are well! Amazing blogs guys... I am honoured to make a mention. I've been ill with the two way simultaneous exit! If you follow.... Are you guys home yet? I'm really bored of Tonsai and Kaos has decided to stay longer so I'm not sure what to do with myself. Torn between just going back to England or trying to go to Oz on my own. You don't know any fitties that need a little blonde girl for company do you? If they can throw in a job that would be perfect! Stay smiley,

Still going!!!! Hey Guys! Can't believe you buggers are still on the road. I'm very jealous. I've been back in NZ for 3 months now. Even got a job. First time I've worked since leaving the UK 19 months ago. Managed to find a restaurant here in Auckland that sells Chang and Beer Lao so it's not all bad. Think you've convinced me I need to get back to China for another look around. And I miss the Thai beaches!!!!!!! Found a card in my wallet the other day for the Sihom Guest House in Champasak. Still think that was the funniest night of my whole trip. Been a long time since I laughed that hard :-) Keep the journals coming!
Doesn't count! Sorry Michelle, no money for fake bull-riding. And riding Andrew's Wild Pony doesn't count either! Not even if you send me a picture of that to proof it. (Considering Andrew's small feet there wouldn't be much to see anyway...:-))) Still enjoying your blogs very much. Take care!!!
Schadenhoffer I saw a big pair of shoes the other day with your name on them - she was dutch and about 6ft. Speaking of which I tried to get a fresh pair of shoes here in Beijing and mate they just dont stock size 13 over here... The girls in the store all went "whoaaaaahh" when I showed them the size of my feet which was pretty funny - and you know what they say... "gao tschai, gao....." (big shoes, big...)
You'll never learn it... ... it's 'Schadenfreude', mate, 'S-c-h-a-d-e-n-f-r-e-u-d-e'! :-) AND I want to see you and/or Lady M. ride one of these beasts and prove it with a picture. Oh, and if you see a real nice pair of shoes lying around... send them over to Switzerland, ok?
jealous!! Hi Guys glad to see you are still going strong! Loving the blogs and im jelous as hell as im back in freezing Glasgow! The Vietnam blogs soundede oh so familiar ha ha! Next trip china me thinks....
Heckling!! Richards.... I believe the heckling in chinese may have been something along the lines of "Jump Fatty Jump!!!" or "That was sooo gay"..."Wasn´t it?!"
doin it all is there anything you guys won't have experienced by the time you return? hot air ballooning in China-you brave bloody puppies. And chicken? hmmm, that's why I became a vegetarian...
I think the only loss for all of us in this adventure is the disappearance of Mark and Ropehead.
how u doing-- fine of course chees mates,
got these days one more time on your blog, and hey...well done.
By the way I realy want to say thanxx for your little present before i left u in saigon so interruptet. it got me a wonderfull sleep in the train...;-))
so hope u guys already tried dog:-))) (back to the good old topic- food)
mine was not that good than expectet, but well maybe it was an old one and I think he wasn't black;)
enjoy

Commie Nunny I demand more photos of Commie Nunny..... that hat is a cracker and the smattering of them on display is not enough.... what i´m actually hoping is that the authorities at home see them and take appropriate action against your obvious western hating attitude
In case you need it.... Oh, and hi to Monty from me. Let him know that "chua si zing kua" in Chinese means "i need to vomit". He might need that one day.... :-)
Bleeding heart.... Lady Michelle, 1st mate,
My Swiss heart is bleeding! The mountains are calling me.... What a wonderful trip this must have been. This is what I live and die for! I've only been in Guilin and Yangzhou in China but this really inspires me. And now Tibet? Keep going strong! Wish I could be there with you and hi to all the ladyboys for me.
After celebrating 6 years together and having travelled seperately in the past, Michelle and Andrew thought the best plan was to blow all of their money that they'd been saving to buy a house and travel the globe instead.... full info
