The last post.
This will probably be the last post for a couple of weeks.
Leaving Bangkok first thing tomorrow for Burma. I heard that internet IS available in Burma but is prohibitively expensive. I'll have to check it out for myself when I get there. Changed $500 for the trip just in case. I doubt I'll need half that for 2 weeks but I can use it in Laos later on anyway so it's all good. Can't believe that it's just over 250 pounds, got it in small denominations so I feel like scrooge mc duck or something, my friend Emma got $100 in ones just in case and that looked even more impressive. We're going to chuck it around the hotel room later and act like bank robbers.
I was going to upload some pictures today but haven't had time. Been running around buying crap for my brother and then posting it off and collecting passports and plane tickets and stuff for tomorrow. It's hectic but good fun. It feels good to be heading off somewhere, especially with Emma and Cody. Met them in Vietnam in November and we all met up in Koh Phangan and have kind of decided to stick together for a while. Cody has already been to Laos so I doubt he'll come with us there which is a pity. On a different note Emma's been playing pool since she was two or something and the tables are free out here in Asia she said she'll school me so when I get back to the world I can whip everyone's asses. I won't feel like such a cripple at the pub!
Bought a walkman and about 30 cds yesterday. Got bored of all my minidiscs so now I have some cool new albums to listen to. Nothing too esoteric but the ones I can remember are:
Erland Oye - DJ kicks
The killers album, can't remember the title but heard it a few times while away, it's great.
The Cure - The Cure
The Streets - Grand don't come for free
A couple of Goodie mob albums
The london electricity album which is flippin' brilliant.
An eminem unreleased bootleg
Radiohead - I might be wrong and Com Lag
Jay Z - the black album
Kanye West's album
Dizzeee rascols new one.
Best of Manic street preachers
Best of Underworld
Eminem's new album which is supposed to be rubbish but at a pound I thought I'd try it.
Best of Orbital
DJ Shadow in tune and on time with a dvd too.
A warp mix called play and repeat or something.
And that's all I can remember. The cd's are well moody, only cost a pound each and are a bit hit or miss on the glitchyness but at that price I can't complain.
Right, If anyone wants anything email me cos I'll be back in Thailand in two weeks to finish some shopping before Laos.
See you on the other side.
