We're back in our favourite internet cafe, near our favourite guesthouse, in our favourite capital (well, favourite in Thailand). Yup back at Suk11 having slept in this morning and missed the floating nun and then travelled from Kanchanaburi to BKK via minibus. The driver was a complete headcase and thus we did the 180km trip in under 2 hours...

We met another couple who are doing pretty much the same route as us - they're from the UK too and we have swapped emails/diary addresses (although as they work in IT their's is all snazzy (what a fantastic 80s word - snazzy!!)) they're in Thailand for another few days or so but we will probably meet up with them in Laos/Vietnam/Oz/wherever. Their website can be viewed here. They also told us about the Qantas frequent flyer program that we forgot to join - d'oh...damn could have got some upgrades somewhere. Have obviously joined now and are trying to get our extra points added - this is surely doomed to failure...

Anyway off into BKK for some food then onto Laos tomorrow. Almost certainly no internet over there so may take us a while to respond but as before - keep the emails coming.

Happy birthday to Ken (my stepdad) who was 21 again yesterday and to my Mum who is the same age on the 4th. Jen's Mum's birthday is at the end of March (28th I think - Lynn??) so happy birthday to her too, although we should be able to update it before then. We have sent cards to all the above - hope you all receive them!!!
