'Normal service' resumes!

Well. I've not done this in a while.

I've left Asia, but I'm not home just yet. Instead I've made it to Australia for two weeks where I get to spend some time with my family (and lots of internet access!) So I shall begin afresh, with attempts at posting happiness day by day. But there'll (hopefully!) be a fair few with two in one as I recount stories or post pictures from my travels and all the things I should have said before. So if you're one of the five holding out for that ping-pong or skinny dipping story, fear not. It's coming. But I'm too lazy to do it tonight.

Today, this made me extremely happy:

That's right. That's me in a JACUZZI. With my very wonderful cousin, no less. But not naked, despite how it looks. Though I was very tired (and in Brisbane), which is rather how it does look. Pictures can be accurate and inaccurate at the same time, y'see.

(Also, totally check out my weird column and pictures at the sides thing going on! Ooooooooooooooh!)

And for my blast from the past, this is the dog I adopted on Koh Tao. I feel as though I should clarify that she sort of adopted me more than I adopted her by following me around right from the very first morning that I stroked her. We even had a hairy moment once when we went swimming and she was so keen to follow me that she swam a little too far out & had a bit of a panic. Bless her. Her name's Matilda. I miss her.

This is what she looks like fighting me for a giant piece of driftwood on a picturesque beach:


And this is a super hot picture of what she looks like when she's sniffing my armpit:


Isn't she lovely?
