Hi to all

Well we have finally arrived in Krappi Krabbi as it is now fondly known after arriving at our resort to find we were miles away from anything in some kind of jungle area in a woden hut with holes in the floor - as in you could see through to air, which is worrying when the house is built on stilts and seems to creak if you walk anywhere near the holes!! The bathroom was actually like a wildlife menagerie with some kind of wierd plant life display in the centre.

Emma took one for the team and rang Jack our "trusty" tour operator who promptly told her to deal with it as he had our money, we weren't getting it back and hung up!! Shockingly this charming young man was from our now least favourite place ever - Bangkok!!

We are however now in a beautiful hotel for a couple of days before we move to Kuala Lumpar which we got half price (possible because we told them our whole sorry sotry - I considered crying but didn't want to push it!!)

Have spent the day roudn the beautfioul pool with jaccuzzis and fountains and watching crappy sky films which was lovely!

I would like to make a firm point at this juncture in the blog as I have received fairly absurd number of comments regarding our hygiene!! We are not disgusting, and swim/shower every day so please don't worry about us :)

Probably the biggest problem so far is the apparent lack of people who want to spend any kind of time with us!! We are becoming very used to each others company as every tour we have booked on and every hotel we stay in seems to be full of local people of honeymooners!! This felt incredibly cultural and interesting at first but it would be nice to find some young people, who fancy having a drink!! We are therefore crossing our fingers for the flurry of surfers and travellers we are going to meet in Australia!!!

Had better get on and help Emma now as she is once again organising our next few days while I watch helplessly!!

Much love to everyone - keep writing messages (Emma, I would expect nothing less from you than inappropriate ones to be honest!!)

Am still working on the photos - just more tricky than I though (plus I am pretty useless when it comes to anything technical)
