BANGKOK



SO the flight was long!!!11 or 12 hours but the air staff were so nice and even the food was nice. We ate at the airport, TWICE (smoked salmon salad and then a shrimp salad at a caviar and champagne bar) then had a thai curry on the plane. Got a bit pissed on the plane and slept for bit but it wasnt comfortable enough to get a proper sleep, even though they give you a pillow and a blanket! So I watched a bit of Ratatouille and Killer Elite. When we arrived in Bangkok it took us ages to get through immigration as there were sooo many people and you have to have your photo taken and the man does not smile at all, but we had a personal chauffer waiting to drive us to our hotel which was very handy and then we got outside and the heat hit us! huuuuuuuuuuuuuumid

On the drive to the hotel (which was pretty crazy, they drive like nutters and there are so many motorbikes with girls on the back, SITTING SIDEWAYS with no helmets on) the buildings are so cool, like a glossy gangster brand new bank next to a shack next to an amazingly designed old school temple type thing. And you can see the heat wobbling in the air.

The hotel is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo fresh. I have never seen anything like it. Its really stylish with arty stuff everywhere and cool lights and there is a roof terrace and a sushi bar and a gym and a pool and a spa and complimentry drinks and canapes on arrival consisting of seafood in a papaya sauce and we I had beef carpaccio followed by scallops for dinner last night. We were gonna just crash out and sleep for ages but we thought its bangkok, weve only got two nights here - we have to go out!

So we asked the staff about ping pong shows and they laughed but said they would personally take us, so this man drove us there and waited outside whilst we went to this show...

Reeally seedy little club with a girl on stage who was blowing out a birthday cake candles with her vagine, and then another one opened a bottle?! and then another one pulled loooads of paper out, and then another one pulled some razer blades out on string, then another one wrote welcome to Bangkok on paper, then another one popped a load of ping pongs out and caught them. Then another one came on and got fucked by this guy in about twenty different positions to the point where he was upside down with his feet wrapped around two poles. I wanted to take photos but the security was pretty hot. we had tequilas and then johnny was sick on the floor. Haaa

Then we got the same guy to drive us to koh sang road where we bought some jokes little toys (like a puppet bird that sqeaks) and some dancing robots and loads of English Summer songs came on so I did ALL the dance routines to all the people at the tables next to us. Then I ate some street food (chicken) and then we got a tuc tuc all the way home. Woke up having a dream that I had to get Will to cover a shift at three and ten and was saying it aloud and then we went to the INFINITY swimming pool and swam and realised it was about 6.30am I think we were still pissed a bit. Amazing pool, pretty much on the roof of this hotel. The view from this hotel is absolutely incredible, it looks like new york or something. Just loooads of amazing buildings everywhere. Its a really nice day today and weve just had breakfast (smoked salmon, eggs, bacon, spinach, GWAVA (which was in the room) and loads of fruit ive never even seen!! The mini bar in the room is so comprehensive as well it has everything and the shower is sooo good (especially after my shitty bedsit shower!) gonna relax today and get some welllll needed sleep and then get a bit of a tan by the pool before heading back to Koh Sang road probably. Might touch a tiger at some point too! :)
