Hey guys!
Just thought I’d let you know I finally got off my ass and did my blog for Cambodia, actually that’s a lie. I’m at work and they’re paying me to doss about so I thought I’d do it and get paid to do it!
Go to http://cyalater.co.uk/2007/06/04/cambodia-phnom-penh/ for the blog if you fancy a read. I was in Cambodia nearly 3 months ago so I’m very far behind. Still, better late than never eh?
It’s starting to get cold down here in Sydney, but it’s still warm enough to go to the beach. I was on Bondi beach yesterday with some friends getting tossed about by some massive waves. So much fun! I think when the weather gets warmer I’ll learn how to surf (properly!) so that my time on the beaches is not a complete, self indulgent waste of time. Ha!
Missing you all loads
Andy
