Hello all! Sorry for lack of postcards lately but have been a poorly girl and not really been up to much! Managed to get an infection in my lymph glands which has made me feel really rough. Have got antibiotics now though so will hopefully feel better soon! This is our last week of school and the older kids all have exams (it's their last week of term before their long summer holiday) so we will only be teaching the littlies this week - yay! We've all...

Dear all, Can't believe another weekend has come round so fast. We only have another 2 weeks of teaching and then will be leaving Chalok Lam for Koh Tao where we will be staying for 5 days doing our PADI diving course. The dive school that we are diving with are being a bit funny (understandably so) about my asthma and therefore I have to go and see the suspiciously named "Dr M" on Koh Samui on Monday for a check up. If all is well he will give me a cert...

Basically, this week has been up and down! We went to Koh Tao for the weekend - a little island about 3 hours by boat from here - which has got some of the best dive sites in Thailand. We had heard that there was an underwater festival happening so we thoug...

Afternoon all! Just a quick message today as I hope to put some more piccies on the site for your viewing pleasure and I think that it may take some time! Had an ok weekend - Friday night really was a quiet one! Had to get up at 5.30am for the trip to Angthong Marine Park - it was a great day but absolutely knackering! I remembered it when I got there - and how beautiful it was. We did a huge trek up a massive hill (having to pull ourselves up by rop...
