Carrying on from the beginning .... 18/11 - After the last blog I went for dinner. I had 3 bites of an uncooked burger! (Don't worry not going to write what I have for dinner every night but needed to tell about the UN cooked burger!) .. This was followed by going to a bar I went to in March 2012. Somehow the woman recognised me and asked where my friends were! I forgot how strong the cocktails are out here so stuck to one drink and chilled in the hotel for the rest of the night. The place is full of old German and American men with young Thai birds/lady boys!! Funny but sad at the same time.
19/11 - Today I went to the grand palace. Full of beautiful buildings. So much to take in! I got talking to a South African in my group who was about late 50s - 60s telling me he likes Avici, David Guetta, trance, Adele and lady gaga!! Also told me 100 times about his cousin living in chiang mai and the cousins parents having divorced etc etc etc ... He laughed every time he told me something so I had to put on a fake sheldon laugh haha! Only had one pic taken with me in it as when he took the first ic of me he was shaking like mad so one was enough! Also had to buy some bad boy trousers as you can not get in to the palace with shorts on. Went for another horrible dinner then hit some bars. Again strong cocktails and had a laugh with the women at the bar from last year. A random woman who works at the bar telling me shed like to give me more than a massage and then another girl been a freak and sniffing me wanting me to buy her a drink but I passed her on to a Norweigan bloke I was talking to haha!!
20/11 - Today has been quite a shock to the system and out of my comfort zone. From a nice hotel to a hostel in khaosan where hangover was filmed! By the time I got in to my room no one was about so I went for a walk and for something to eat. I was approached by a tuk tuk that said he would take me about for 20baht to variuos places of interest. Well it turned out to be a big scam and he just wanted to get some free petrol by taking me to a tourist centre but he didn't get any as I didn't buy anything. After a big arguement with him and me trying not to Thai Kick box his arse we went and got him some petrol from an Indian suit makers (me pretending I wanted a suit until he got petrol and then walking out and then another tourist centre where I didn't have to buy anything) before finally been taken back to the hostel!! All was good when I got back to the hostel though as I finally got talking to a girl in my hostel room and going out for dinner with her! Feels so much better when you have a chat with someone especially when they come from near the same area. Was starting to think there were no English about! ..... Had a nice meal tonight along with a massage by a crazy thai man. While we were having a couple of drinks I witnessed some men eat a scorpion off of a stick! Erghhh sod that!!
21/11 - After a sleepless night because it was too hot and everyone seemed to take turns in snoring I was picked up at 7am to go on a trip to see the floating market. This place was so funny. Every boat sold pretty much the same things and at some points we came to a stand still because there were so many boats all wanting to go in different directions! They need the congestion charge! Next we went on to a place called the rose garden which wasn't actually a garden full of roses but was like a theatre. Got talking to some more girls on the way back. One from Enfield who is coming out for dinner with me and Jennie, a Aussie who asked if i was from essex! An american woman and a Canadian. Sadly none are going Chiang Mai so will have to start again when I go there tomorrow.
Tried scorpion and it tasted like SH*T! One bite and spat it out haha
