Now spending a month in the southern Thai town of Surat Thanithe city of good people. Not the most exciting town in Thailand, but it is a pleasant spot by the river, I know of a great hotel here, low cost, good facilities, friendly staff (which is to say, they don't laugh when I mispronounce the Thai language, and they play the game of throwing to me, rather than handing me my keys, when I return to the hotelit is the little things which keep the ennui of life at bay).

Putting my feet up and relaxing (by the pool) for a few weeks. The only real annoyance is that Thais love conferences, and as this is one of the better hotels in the city, 2 days out of 3 there are folk arriving and departing for a conference, on something. Yesterday something about early child hood education, tomorrow, who knows, rice farming.

I also met again a girl I met here a few months back when I was passing through. She works as a sales rep for a Thai phone company and does a little pr work. Who knows, might even work out for a while, haha.
