the old man and the first lady

pretty mental few weeks.
yesterday was the funeral, it was a nice service and a testament to Robb, thats all i'll say.
Im looking forward to getting back out to Cambodia, i really feel reenergized and ready. like i said before i know what im going back to, so im aware of what will be more realistic and what i will be capable of achieving for the next 6 months. more than anything im looking forward to being in a hot tropical climate again, this english weather really is as bad as everyone always says it is.

the old man and the first lady are coming out two weeks today, im hoping to be able to organise a trip down to the beach for a few days, not that i really need the holiday but just because its worth the trip and you wouldnt want Phnom Penh to be your only experience of Cambodia. my dad has travelled extensively round India and the family went there in october. so its not their first 3rd world experience and i imagine PP will be alot more developed than alot of India especially the rural ereas they visited. contrary to popular belief i do not live in a mud hut and eat rats every meal, in fact im pretty minted, comparatively speaking.

alls well that ends well.
Ben.

Ben you still need to make it clear whether or not they have discovered fire out in Cam and there's a growing rumour that they haven't invented the wheel yet. You ought to lay this rest although i can't promise that anyone will believe your claims.
