10 am - I was booked on the first chopper out today at 0745, but got bumped to the fourth due to payload problems so I'm here moaning about it.
This PC is in the TV room so as I type I have "Good Will Hunting" playing quite loud, overdubbed in Thai. Again I'm struck by the Thai habit, when imitating westerners, of speaking in a comically deep voice. It's asif they see us as barrel-chested father figures or something.
My chopper is at 11.45, and if I get bumped again I'll be on the slow boat. Now that would be a disappointment - I'd hoped to have a nice three-day weekend to recover my land legs and top up my tan ready for coming home next week. Never mind, after spending Sat and Sun by the pool I'll resemble a Danish flag anyway (again - see Koh Samet blog last year). Sorry wifey, you forbad the tan but in this I will defy you - can't come home from Thailand all milky.
I have some video and some photos to post when I get back to my apartment. Real broadband will be fun for a change. I also have a time-lapse sunset from the platform, how romantic.
Loads of web dev this weekend, including wifey's Uni project, details posted here, and I hope you all check out the site when it's done. Compliments only please, and give your support to the struggling artist. I note with some disappointment that nobody saw fit to comment on her lovely work in the previous blog - shame on you, you bunch of Philistines. (She'll be mortified now)
Better go. Be good, see you all soon.
