I agree to meet Mo at 1pm. It's the anniversary of Mo's mums death today. The weather is hot today and we go for nice lunch up my road from my hostel. Not a lot of Thai dishes, so coffee, orange juice and a chicken sandwich. Mo goes for egg and toast with a big pot of tea. I dump my laundry, not expecting miracles but the Thai's used to be good at it. My hostel provides a pool and we walk up the road to it. Chilled place called Deejai Gardens. Sheep dip heaven (LT). The food they provide is sourced from a local farm Not very Thai but still a great panini with pesto. The hostel panders to westerners so hardly surprising. Back at the hostel I sit with Chris and a Belgian, my current roommates. They are off to see the market and I leaeve them too it. On the way to meet Mo, I am attacked by a dog. All 5 inches of it. The owner apologises but he needed have worried. A mosquito would do more damage. After watching the sunset upstairs at Johns, we go to the Teak, to mark the anniversary of Monicas mum. It's a very good restaurant. Plush and the staff are attentive. I get spring rolls and for main, chicken cashew and pineapple. Mo goes for chicken and ginger. It's the number 1 Thai meal so far. Its odd though, as previously youd go to a street cafe for tasty food. There were more of them about. We head to the Havana bar along the road from the Yellow bar. I like this place as you still get the atmosphere without the noise and busy bar. We drink a few buckets of rum before Mo gets a tuk tuk back to her hotel.
Back at the hostel I see Harry. I've been speaking to him the last few days. A Nice English lad who has run out money and is trying to arrange some from home. As I sit down, the police turn up and come in to do and inspection. Harry is panicing and stuffs a bag into a hole in the wall. The bag falls out the other side near where a policeman is standing. Luckily they leave without incident. Not sure what they were looking for or whether a complaint had been made about noise. Who knows. Harry grabs his bag of weed and in a paranoid state goes to his room. Oh boy was he lucky.
