Hi Sweeties, Thankyou for your messages, sorry for not being in touch earlier but the hotel I was staying at didn't have internet access. But now I'm at My House (and loving it - apart from I couldn't get a room with a shower so fingers crossed for tomorrow). ANYWAY.... What can I say - ARRRHHHHH IT's FABULOUS, I'm having an amazing time and have met people so I'm no longer Michellle No Mates!!! I also met up with a familiar face which was Ken an ex-client of mine, it was slightly odd having a beer in Silks on the Ko Shan road with him instead of Shillibeers but fun too. I met this lovely Canadian couple called Kim and Bronston they are 22 and 23 and are only here for 3 months. I met them yesterday while I was lost trying to find my way back to the Ko Sam road from the Grand Palace which OH MY GOD is Stunning!!!! Today, I went to see Wat Po and then met up with Kim and Bronston and we took a boat down the river then went back to Wat Po and had a massage - which REALLY HURT!!!!! I was in agony! then we went on a Tuk Tuk and I thought I was going to DIE! Tomorrow I'm taking an organised tour to the Bridge on the River Kwai, then to an elephant camp etc etc. I'll probably leave Bangkok on Saturday for Chiang Mai. I'm fine and having lots of fun, I love bangkok loads and no longer have the urge to stick to a specific itinerary, I'm just going to see how it goes! Keep writing to me, it was lovly loggin on and seeing lots of messages - thanks guys! I've taken loads of pictures already but cannot download them onto these comuters so I'll try and pop some on CD or go to a newer Internet Cafe. LOVE YOU GUYS. M xx P.S - Yes Sue my purse is in my bag which is on my lap - thankgod I haven't lost ANYTHING yet! I'm off to do some shopping now, and have some beers and meet more people.xxxx
