Rachel is nigh
Wednesday, 2 February 2005
On the sleeper train back to Bangkok again tonight to meet Rachel and do a bit of banana shake drinking in the now well tried and tested style. We've done bugger all the last few days. It's made Catherine go a bit insane. Here are one or two random tidbits though:
- Shouting back at children - when you are in weird parts of SE Asia children constantly shout and giggle at you when they see you which is kind of annoying. Weve found a great retaliation technique. We just shout back at them saying "SCRUBBERS!!!!!!!" in a Withnail and I type style which amuses us immensely and they have no hope of understanding. You can also use really elaborate swear words. Good clean fun.
- Cambodge - We are heading to Cambodia soon. The french call it Cambodge which I think is a much more apt name from what I've heard about it. So from now on Im changing it's name - it's not Cambodia anymore its Cambodge.
- Jose Ramon's - An excellent and well needed mexican resturant run by Jose Ramon, a very cool Puertorican American rogue. Who's been telling us lots of entertaining tails of his life while we eat enchaldas. He's also lived in Middlesborough which puts him high in Catherine's book. "Yes, I do have a black eye. But no, it definately wasn't me you saw brawling the other night..." Good dude.
- Preparing for S America - Check my progress.
I thank you.

Yes, when a truck load of pre pubesscent school children are makeing breast signs at you and shouting "miwk! Miwk! Cow! Moo" It is most gratifying to insult them back by flicking Vs and the like, truely I have been cured of my teacherness. It didn't even occur to me that their English was doing well!

My friend Omar's training to be a teacher now as well, and from what he tells me, shouting at children seems to be pretty much all it involves. He's at Littlemoss School for Scallies at the moment and I'm sure he wishes their English was just slightly worse so he could get away with sundry obscenities like you can. Good styles, folk - keep at it! We're all proud of you.
