How do you like your eggs!
What a sensational weekend! England took control of the first test in Pakistan, GB destroyed NZ at rugby league, the England footie team beat the Argentineans and the mighty mighty England rugby team beat the Aussies 26-16 at Twickenham, oh yes and I went to Bangkok!!
In next to no time I'd decided I liked the place, I think it was as I screamed down a random street on the back of a tuck tuck late on Friday night, not having the first clue where I was going, seeing an elephant casually strolling along the street and letting the colours and smells of a new country beat me in the face, happy days!
As I had a little under 40 hours in Thailand my options were a little limited, to try to cram masses in would guarantee failure so I decided to stick to the really important stuff, I drank!
Now in my defense I was there for a birthday party and even so found time to do a little exploring and get lost twice (both times very quickly and on tuck tucks), hand feed a baby Indian elephant (lot more chilled than their Africa cousins), take a boat along the river and visit Patpong, the Grand Royal Palace and the Temple of the Emerald Buddha. But mainly I drank!
I also saw an egg being broken into a bowl without the use of hands, I've never tried it so don't know how hard that is but I'm sure if you saw what was used to break it you'd be impressed, disturbed but impressed! Yes you guessed it, I went to one of Bangkok's infamous shows...
The mistake most people make is thinking these are sex shows, they really aren't. Admittedly the performers are naked women but they couldn't me less titillating if they tried. I went to the place with Sean, Bev and some friends of Sean's parents and it was pure comedy, and I don't think I've laughed so much in years!
There are a lot of names for the female sexual region not all of them very nice, this weekend I discovered a few more uses for it of which the same can be said! Bottles were opened, darts were shot bursting balloons and lengths of ribbons long enough to wrap every present I've ever given were removed. Ping pong balls were fired as were bananas (one even hit a bottle of beer on the table next to me, I'm told if I'd of caught it I'd get a free drink - and syphilis!), candles were blown out and horns hooted and all using nothing more than a rather well trained vagina! I don't know how or even why but I do know it was an experience.
I could go on but no amount of words could quite do my wonderfully bizarre weekend justice, so for now I'll bid you farewell.
