Yo people.
As expected, Bangkok is awesome.
Ben and I headed out to Royal City Avenue last night so have a go at a night out in Bangkok... Didn't really go to plan.
We jumped out the taxi into a bar/restaurant called Tom's (whey!) Straight away we noticed a table tap of 6 pints of heineken for a little over £8...surely. After not eating since breakfast about 10 hours before, it worked a treat. Cheapest night on drinks I think ever in existence. Happy days! After that we hit up some food and wow. I'm pretty sure having a pile of burning coal in my mouth would have been less hot than the chilli grouper we thought we could handle...painful times.
Moving on we headed out to some 'clubs' to then be told that we had to be 20+ and after being 'Id'd' I was convinced that I had landed back in Bournemouth all of a sudden... That didn't work and only one place let us in. Out of the 5 people inside we were the first to realise it was rubbish so jumped in a taxi...
Mr Thai taxi dude number 2 thought he'd take us to a local party at a very dodgy backstreet club...weird weird experience but a laugh nonetheless!!
Headed out to an aquarium today and got my feet chewed on my little fish in a hot tub... Weird. As well as spending a long long time in a pioneer DJ shop which has my dream kit for about £2000 less than back home!! Might just buy them and come home now haha!
Am currently planning on how to handle the 14 hour bus journey to Koh Samui that we have to take either tomorrow or the next day or whenever we decide to leave BKK...
Heading out to the night Market tonight and the heavily suggested 'ping-pong' show as well as being told to visit the 'special shows' Bangkok has to offer... I'll leave it to you to work out that one.
I'm off to swim, in the heat, hope you're all jealous.
Big love going out to you all.

Dad Sounds like you are having a fab time, Tom. I did try my best to educate your pallete regarding mildly spicy food. Keep at it and when you come home I will be able to cook you something properly hot! Lots of love and stay safe. Dad x
Grandma So glad to hear you are enjoying yourself Tom but bit worried about you enjoying thre "night life" too much !! Thought you were going to Chiang Mai but Koi Samui is the opposite direction. Have fun and stay safe. Lots of love xx
Mum so amused and gripped by your email... kept reading it and laughing, imagining all the situations you find yourself in... I just burnt the toast! Take care. Big hug! Love you to bits xx

Bob Nice photo of you posing as a local! You'll never complain about our cajun sausages anymore.
Tom Thanks people!! Yeah having an awesome time here! Will update you all with last nights outing and other radically fun filled yet seemingly dodgy excursions shortly...x
