computer is taking ages so there are loads of spelling mistakes i haven't changed - i'll blame it on the comp anyway.
these last few blogs aren't in order so might not make sense, but i don't have time now to change anything.
just wanted to add i went to 2 funerals this week- quite an achievement i think seeing as i don't know anyone in thailand. they seem to happen every day here, unless i am actually going to the same one each day? everything is a social occasion, (and an eating occasion - 5 meals a day is the norm i think) and they seem to like having farags (foreigners) around - even if it is just so that they can stare at us, and when i say "us" i mean me, as i am frequently the only farang in town. i have never been looked at so much in my life: i have come to believe that it is because of my great beauty and nothing else, and that it does actually happen where ever i go in the world, it is only now that i am noticing.
but my most exciting news of my time in thailand is the elephant crossing the road. apart from telling mum and kate, no one has got as excited as me about this. no - it wasn't wild, it was someones transport or something - but that doesn't change the fact that it is amazingly exciting to see elephants right there on the road.
my most exciting animal viewing ever.
but i would like to see them in the wild now.
am i being a bit over excited about this?
i don't care.
i'm gonna go eat some more curry now, its been almost 6 hours since i've eaten anything; i think that this would be a national disaster if anyone knew.
gin kaow!

we are incredibly jealous - you sound as though you having the most amazing time - it all looks and sounds wonderful. We would have been as excited as you about the elephants as well - I got excited seeing some in whipsnade zoo!! so seeing one cross the road would blow me away - keep on having a great time, love reading all the news love Vivo, Davo and a big hug and kiss from Jamie xx
Sounds pretty amazing and as for the pork fat...
Sitting outside in Cheddar with the chainsaws rattling, the bloody dog barking and the domestic violence due to kick off any minute - bring on the pork fat is all I can say.
Good luck bitch!
