Our lovely hosts who owned the 2 villas we'd be staying in were at the port to meet us and told us that the waves were higher than the previous week when the ferry had sailed in 3 metre high waves and they'd been on it and they'd felt really ill. THey chucked my enormously heavy, big and pink suitcase in the back of the taxi driver 'Mr Bear' pick up truck and Jim got in the back with some other guests while I got inside the cab with Mr. Bear. I didn't want any more fun that day thank you very much. The roads are very rugged on Koh Tao with only the main road which runs North/South being made of cement so Jimbo and the others had to hang on for dear life, especially when we went up what will be from henceforth known as 'THE HILL OF MENTAL STRENGTH'. Now I have measured this hill with my iphone spirit level and it's 45degrees steep, for 80metres! Now they do have a moped that you can use to get up and down and into Sairee town, but bearing in mind at the bottom is a rugged track and no street lights and then when in town, no road rules, Westerners bombing around and Thais mopedding slowly it's a recipe for disaster! So we've walked up and down this hill twice a day now and will have done for 21 days by the time we leave and boy am I fit. We take our torches out at night and the Thais we pass on the way who walk too (who think we're mad as we're the only Western people who walk) say hello. We get to see the water buffalo and laugh as they wander across the road on a rope and it pulls tight and it becomes a trip wire for mopeds and trail bikes and we also get to hear the frog chorus in the swampy bit at the bottom of the hill. This hill should actually replace the hill in the film 'The Hill' which is a mere mole hill! I think this hill could break a Paratrooper after just 2 days!
Christmas Day was weird, enjoying it in the sun. Jimbo and I had put a limit on a £10 spend on each other and we didn't come close to spending that on each other as everything is so cheap here. We opened our presents and went down for lunch at a restaurant that was doing a buffet. We had turkey and all the trimmings, seafood including salmon, giant mussels and prawns and amazing cheesecake and chocolate cake for pudding. The lights went out as usual in this restaurant and everyone cheered and Ed the owner took a bow and said he'd made it happen specifically. It was a fantastic lunch and we were stuffed, as is obligatory on Christmas Day. We passed the lady boys who advertise their club by standing at a cross roads on a walk way that everyone passes trhough at some point during their night. They were all dressed up in santa outfits and trying to sing Jingle Bells, which wan't exactly the best way to advertise their cabaret events, but they were even more jolly than normal and having their photos taken with everyone which they love - such show offs.
During our time here we have been working on a small project with the general worker for the villas we're staying in. His name is Yu. He is 35, Burmese and earns just £7 a day. That is more than the average worker gets on Koh Tao and much more than he could possibly hope to get in Burma. He sends most of the money home to his family who still live in Burma who have no light in their home. By home, do not take this to mean bricks and mortar like the houses that you and I live in, I mean corrugated iron shacks. However, he is very proud of his family and speaks often of them with love. Now Yu wants and is capable of lighting his house and also that of his small village but does not have the money to buy the things he needs. He wants to do this by solar/wind power so he is self sustainable. Now Jimbo has been researching how to do this (he has the knowledge) and is buying him books on how to do this and I am working on getting him the things he needs to be able to have light and power. If you, or someone you know has any of the following (second hand things are not a problem), can donate or provide at an extremely low cost, then you will be doing an incredible thing. If you couldn't turn on the light when it got dark at night, what would you do? What would you do if you couldn't charge your computer or phone up to read this blog? All Yu wants is 1 light bulb and 1 electrical socket in his house which will in turn show others in his village that his idea can be achieved. Surely WE can help him to achieve this!
List of things needed:
Solar panel or solar cells so he can build his own panel
Soldering irons
Electricity cable
Invertor
Hand tools (no electricity to charge electrical ones up)
Solder
Light bulb sockets
Light bulbs
Light switches
Plug sockets
Cable tacks
Anything that is small and easily postable to Thailand and then cartable to Burma.
I haven't put a list of all the things we need as car batteries are obviously gonna cost a fortune to ship. If you can supply anything than please email me here so we can take it further: french-maid69@hotmail.co.uk
Alternatively you can catch up with my latest shenanigans on my website: laralatex.com Over the Christmas period I am having huge fun with Anna Joy and Kai Taylor in one of my most enjoyable scenes to date. I get to lick pussy and get fucked by Kais huge cock, fantastic!
Happy New Year x
