Peace

Sorry to have been away awhile but in truth it's been a fairly quiet few days - I am still CM-bound, but no disasters, in fact quite the opposite. There's a girl. That very pretty one I mentioned from a couple of Fridays ago? She. Obviously time and geography are against us, but for the moment I can safely say there's nowhere I'd rather be. Have been exploring various local nightspots with Aor (in the process giving myself another excuse not to leave by failing to let my ankle heal properly), they're all largely similar to each other and to your average hip-hop/r 'n' b night at home - albeit missing the aggro and fine old English tradition of casual violence, sigh... In fact, the only violence I've seen in my whole month here was in the ring at Thai boxing - people I've mentioned it to seem surprised at my surprise, how tragic. Britain needs a Buddhist Reformation, get on with it someone.
OK gonna sign off here for the moment, sorry to be a bit boring but I'm sure there'll be a fresh catastrophe to report next time. Take care.

Congratulations! That is potentially an even bigger disaster than the ankle and the cash card combined. Take it from an arts graduate who has mysteriously found herself working on scientific propaganda in the Antipodes... Love is dangerous! xx

Surely that's not such a disaster? C'mon the sciences need all the help they can get: you're doing good work.
Glad your Mum got the postcard Kate, has she got the second one yet? I knew the post would be a bit slow but, man... Oh yeah and congrats to Kat btw, I had no idea til I saw the photos. Nice photo of you and baby too, maybe motherhood wouldn't be so disastrously unglam after all ;o)
Finally, I've only taken a couple of pics of Aor as I think she thinks it's a bit weird and makes me look like a stalker, but anyway they're on Ringo (I'm assuming this is for Van's interest and not yours Marts!) I know I'm honour-bound to say this anyway but they don't do her justice, might try and sneak some more when I get a chance...

Life eh? one day you're popping around the village on your moped and the next a fair haired, sex starved, naive British passport comes hobbling along!

Dix is that you? If so, you'll remember Chiang Mai isn't quite a village (pop. 170,000) - you should also have remembered from earlier in the blog (honestly, do my words have so little impact?) that she's a university student (engineering, postgrad) and hardly in need of a UK passport to support herself... All your points about me were spot-on however :o)

Pearson, Pearson, Pearson, as a resident of the UK you couldn't pull a girl, in a brothel, dressed in a suit made of £50 notes. You set foot in Thailand and armed with no money, but that little maroon document you can't fight them off with a shitty stick.
Engineering my arse!

'I don't have a racist bone in my body...just experience' - of all Thai women? Bad luck, you got burned; I'd stick to the monkeys.

Btw Aor knows about this blog now so I'm gonna be boring and start moderating comments. Deal now is you only get published if you're nice or funny: you've had 4 goes and haven't managed either yet. Sorry, next...
