Backed up with Blog-Block

Yeah, it's happened again but this time it's a record - I'm three countries behind although actually not that much over a month. Blog says: Australia, the truth says: Thailand (having been through Singapore and Malaysia in the interim). The problem is my wayfaring, itinerant lifestyle with nary a day and a night in one spot, and if there is, it's some tropical beach (with all the usual trappings I hasten to add, like cobalt blue water, unerring sunshine, Bob Marley...hmmm) unsullied by the pervading creep of the devil's portal. So updates have proved difficult. I shall try and get ontop of things and at least bring the wayward beast into BST.

For those that are plotting my progress on a big map-o-the-world wall chart with coloured pins linked with yards of garden twine (I think that's just Mrs Goringe, my probabation officer, as usual) I'm in Krabi, on the coast of SW Thailand.

Childish but amusing: in Thai it's polite to say crap at the end of most phrases. In a restaurant complimenting the chef: You're food is very fine crap. Stop it, it's not clever.
