So, I sat by the pool for a few hours on Tuesday morning desperately trying to finish this book "First they killed my father" a compelling book about a child who survived the Pol Pot regime before I left as it wasn't mine.
Got horribly burnt despite the total overcast skies, but I did finish the book. Then I got the bus to PP - just getting on as the heavens opened, them being made to change, and change again, and a bizarre "being John Malkovich floor 7 1/2" size toilet.. (literally a 3 foot high door into a 4 ft high cubicle with a toilet in it!) ...and it rained the ENTIRE way back, and has actually not stopped rained here ever since.
However, despite everything, I did make it in time to have a birthday meal and many many cocktails with my friend John, which was an undeniably superb evening.
We met tonight too as I head off for Vietnam tomorrow, visa permitting.
My IPOD HAS BROKEN!! No NO NO!!!!! The sodding middle button simply ignores me. BASTARD thing.
Was going to attempt to purchase another cheaply here before my seven hour bus journey tomorrow, but I think I better hold onto my funds.....
