Part 2 of 'the big one' is now over, Asia has been well and truly conquered with a trail of desruction left in my wake! Funny tales from Malaysia include an insane bus driver taking us through the mountains, he was almost sliding round the bends then some of our bags fell out the hold and rolled down the road! Bit of a nutter! Had a big session last night, had some Hennesey in true gangsta rapper style and it blew my head off. Before i knew it i was dump tackling...

Oi Oiiiiiiii, this is my thailand entry! Been in Bangkok and Koh Phangan this week and its been pretty frickin class! Bangkok was well funny and strangly enough more relaxing than Sri Lanka cos the people dont hassle you to buy stuff. I got loads of cheap stuff on Khoa San road and visited the patpong area which was a spectacle to say the least. Didnt realise it we were in Koh Phangan for the full moon party so the day we got there we all got lashed with 10,000 o...

This is pretty much it for Sri Lanka now! leaving for Bangkok early on monday and i think im going to miss this place.

Ive become best friends with the local beer (Lion) though its so h...

Im trying to waste some time in Hikkaduwa before i start travelling around the rest of Sri Lanka over the next few weeks. Ive come to the conclusion that travellers dont tend to do much at all. Sleep, eat, surf a little bit, read and sleep some more. Spoke to a bloke that organises the voluntary work round here but theres nothing going so its a bit boring. Spose ill have to just go and sunbath on one of Sri Lanka's well nice beaches! Met some quite interesting pe...

Hello! Left the cricket boys yesterday after our first international victory against a Sri Lankan side. Its so hot over here (touches 40 degrees midday) that bowling a few overs leaves you absolutely knackered, it felt like someone was standing on my chest, my lungs were so heavy. Batting is just as bad - so Pipes i reckon you shud get fit before you go to Oz. Got the train about 60km down the coast to a little surf/diving town called Hikkaduwa. Going to learn to...
