Hello,

Thanks for your messages they made me smile!

Well since i last wrote ive experianced a whirl wind of everything. The homestay was ok actually, three seperate houses, we all had our own beds and mossie nets, very basic, gekos and mossies galore, we had dinner under the front porch, under the beady eye of the biggest lizards since godzilla!!!! and several of the families puppies (no i didn't go stroking them mum they are all a bit skinny and boney to look healthy) played cards and chatted untill it was too dark to caryy on, at which point my bum decioded to start leaking and hasn't stopped since. Made the midnight trips to the loo fun since all cambodian houses are built on stilts so in the wet season they dont flood and so they have shelter for themselves and the cows during the day (yup you guessed it at night the cows sleep under you!!!) and of corse the squat toliet is aropund the back, i tell you what dave i think if id have seen a snake on thoses trips i'd have screamed and perhaps cried slightly!!!!

Slept ok, except the toilet trips and it was a bit bloody hot and the fact that about 5am the whole town and their cockrels seemed to be having a party in the front garden!!!

Anyway, the next day we took the four hour trip here, the official beach resort of cambodia, think i've seen any of it? have i hell, got here to the hotel which is clean and cool, thank god, went to give my washing to the lovely washing ladies sat in the restaurant felt sick, came back to my room and spent the rest of the day and night swinging from hot to cold, vomitting, pooing and falling in and out of sleep! |Decided it wouldnt be the best idea to go on the boat trip today so spent today in my bed again (and on the loo), not eating but drinking lots and lots of water and dyrolite, about 5 felt better, the others came back so headed to the beach to watch sunset and have some fried rice and veg.

Manged to eat a bit with the help of immodium but now feeling all achey and stiff and i think its time for bed again, hopefully i'll be ok for a day on the beach tomorrow, otherwise there go all my hopes of a tan!!!! Everyone else is still at the beach, its full moon party tonight, gutted, i just want to feel better!!!!

anyhow, i'm off to bed!
