pics from BANG KOK.

The hands say stop, but the heart says go on... What am i saying? Shouldn't it be the other way round?

Anyway.......

Meant to do this for a long time. I'm sure you've all been to thailand, so ill spare you the touristy dregs and get some more candid shots up. From BANG KOK. What a name, huh?

I'm sure all of you know why we go to bangkok for. The shopping of course. To shop for what kind of mech i'll leave it up to you. But the best reason actually happens to be all the imitation brands you find there for dirt cheap prices. By imitation brands, i also mean things like this:

Donald riding high on the starbuck success, high on coffee as well and drooling. But nothing really comes closer than the real IMITATION JEWELLY. I didn't know you'd have to imitate the spelling too. Nice try though:

And when i saw the dame, i really couldnt resist. She seemed pretty stoic about the whole affair too. This was taken just seconds before the shop keeper came to save her immobile lass as the culprit took off...


After making off with the snapshot, i stumbled across this gem. She’s gorgeous, she’s dangerous – and she sings! Male convenience store clerk by day, fabulous drag queen/ secret agent by night, Iron Pussy must yet again come (WHAT?) to the rescue!

She's hot i tell you, and only thing is that she's a he. heh. A pity i didnt buy the DVD. But thats enough shopping for a while. Off to the Chao Praya river, where dont we all remember how National Education's decree to imbue young minds with racial harmony and diversity required secondary school (or was it primary) chinese text to include the LOI LOI KRATONG festival. As we went to the ferry we spied this dog acting just so dawg. Lazy bastard was still snoozing there even after we came back some 3 hours later. I still can't figure out how he got up there.

We took the river tour, and while the guide was spewing her bad engrish, i was really impressed with the great waterfront property:

I mean, its RIGHT at the water's edge! No water woes here!

No suprise that the plants here grow so well, eh? They practically overtook the house! Somehow it feels so eldritchy, with Tim Burton undertones... Dionaea house should take this as their model i say!

One wonder where their plumbing goes eh? Convenience at the maximum and woe betide the neighbour downstream. heheh.

Waterfront porch too. I bet it'd be cool to keep ducks in there.

Hee. I just found this hilarious.

Well, here's the rest of the waterfront. And this concludes today's lonely planet BANG KOK edition.
