... but since yesterday alarm bells were ringing. I wisely hovered over the toilet to ****, and a flurry of curried slurry hurried out of me in a flurry. <br>FFFFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLOBOLOBOLOBO LOOOOOO!!!<br>Putting the fact that it was undoubtedly diahorrea to one shelf for the moment, it was the most pleasant sh*t I have done in a long time, starting with a phenominally pleasing pressurised blast of liquid ****, and then a steady flow of raw effluent. The stomach ...

... smell the next move in the air, and warned Japster of the inevitable.<br>Sure enough, the boatmen suggested that we pay for the other 6 and they would take us. It was my first experience with the haggle. We didn't so much as haggle, more than hang around not sure what to do until the price dropped to something we were happy with (150 baht, or 3 quid each, on top of the 200 baht we both paid at the office). <br>We jumped into the boat (and really jumped, to avoid sea ...

We explored all the amazing rock pinnacles that stick up from the water, and gazed at climbers attempting some incredible cliffs.We tried snorkeling but the visibility was poor.

... clear you could see the coral-covered seabed five meters below. A narrow opening in the cliffs allowed us to explore a secluded lagoon. The emerald lagoon was surrounded on three sides by towering jungle-clad cliffs that were at least a hundred meters high.
