Outta London into Thailand with a Bang...kok

Hey guys!
It hasnt actually been that long for once, so i will be able to keep this one relatively short.
Well, to start with I went and saw Noel Fielding and Friends. It was a pretty good show. The first act was terrible but the rest of the show featured Johnny Two Hats, Gareth Marenghi, Razorlight, The Moon, The Boosh Band (playing Electro Boy/Girl, Nanageddon and Charlie) along with Julian Barrat and Bob Fossil.

With that down and all on my lonesome I got ready and go on my flight for Bangkok. Little did i know that it was Thai New Year from the 13th - 15th of April... (and cos the 12th was a Saturday it got added). Khao San Rd was a warzone as they celebrate by throwing water and and talcom powder from dawn till 9pm. Old ladies and children alike set apon you and eachother in a frenzy, regardless of your luggage burdens and expensive equiptment. Such a pity cos i would have loved some photos of the size of the smiles everyone was sporting.

Super Soaker (crap photo but best i could do on my own... not for long )

I bought myself a supersoaker (6 bucks) and got out there but eventually I just had to bail and Koh Chang was calling me. So Bus, Songthaew, Ferry, Songthaew and I was here. On Lonely Beach. And its great. A boozy first night followed by getting a better hut and relaxing. I hired a motorbike yesterday and rode through the jungle and today i have been diving all day. Its been a good (yet sweaty) couple of days.

Not a bad view to eat BBQ fish to.

Tonight a few beers (maybe with the divemaster from today) and then tomorrow off to meet Linden in Bangkok and get back to some excellent hutchcroft-style exploration!

Lots of Love
Counting the days (but not too quickly)
