i swear i get fatter by the hour...
Hi, ive got some time to kill today as i wait for a bus to take me down to Bangkok, then to Ko Samui (im leaving at 6pm today (fri), should be there by noon on sunday! Ive got to spend ten hours hanging around Bangkok tomorrow, might go and see the grand palace..then again i might just go and sit in an air conditioned cinema..

Went to see some thai boxing last night, but forgot to tkae my camera, im hoping one of the lads i was with can send me some pics. It was brilliant. The main fight was between some aussie guy and a thai bloke.There were about 7 bouts in all, some involved kids, women, and at one stage four blindfolded guys all beating the shit out of each other...It was in a small stadium here in chiang mai..400baht for frontrow ringside seats...im gonna try and catch a fight at one of big stadiums in bangkok before i leave...

anyway, here are some pics
