Balls in Bangkok
So, I have arrived here in Bangkok without too much drama. Despite previous phobia of flying my mnc-heathrow and hrow to BKK went smoothly. I think I am cured! Met a nice girl Emma on my Manc-LHR who was living in Wellingon, NZ and she offered me a place to stay with her. First steps onto Qantas I think showed me up as a novice however, as I ws unsure what to think of complimetary accompaniments. After meagre supper I fell asleep listening to my ipod and awoke to find my plates cleared, tray stowed and a blanket over myself, that's service! Met a nice sarf africn couple travelling to Laos before landing in Bangkok... thankfully banking up 5 hours kip I didn't feel too shabby. Cleared immigration and decided to navigate the buses, at 150 baht (about 3 quid) to the hostel and super organistion I thought it wasa safe bet. However, I got ahead of muself and left the bus one stop early in Silom... got incredibly lost and approached na 'britsh' looking couple who helped me to get even more lost over the course of the following hour. Finally, after a trip through the red light district (to be visited again later) I got to my hostel (Lub D) and it was a crazy few hours from arrival... met so many people I've forgottern all of their names, been sweaty as hell, drank several beers (local Singha is goooood) been to pingpong (don't ask for details!) a gig and several bars before getting back to the hostel. So far, so good! Probs hitting tourist hotspots tomorrow, fancy the floating market... and some food!!! I've been here nearly 10 hours and I've eatena bagof salmon flavour crisps. Need some hot tasty noodlesin my life... so hungryyyyyyyyy. mmmmmm. night night xxx
