Reality beckons

Friday, September 22, 2006
One more hour to go before i head off to gate C14 at KLIA.
 
It has been a good fortnight; one of initial uncertainty; going to Borneo with little more than plane tickets can make you wonder what the hell is gonna happen.....
 
in the end, we met the fine people of Scuba Junkies in Semporna and enjoyed 33 dives over 11 days!  Now i really do need a vacation, and thankfully with the cost being about 16 quid per dive, my Visa is safe to pay for another day! 
 
lots of sharks and too many bloody turtles in one of, if not THE best dive site in the world, of Palau Sipadan.  The trigger fish were a bit feisty tho, one of whom took a few chunks out of my fins!  (until i offered up my arse for it to sink its teeth into instead;  dehli belly makes for a great deterrent!)
 
and now having milked every last ringett out of this Plaza Premium Lounge, i embark on 13 hours of knee cramped boredom.  we got bulk-head seats tho, and being awake for 28 hours now, should help ensure i snore as we zoom over India and Whatsit-stan until touching down in Heathrow.
 
tonight will be pizza night!  damn i now hate rice and noodles; especially fried!  i must confess, the first port of call on getting back to civilisation was McDicks!  damn my hankering for a seasame seed bap!
 
ciao y'all.  jet lag permitting, i'll be harrasing you politrikal types once more on Monday morning. 
 
tropical pics to follow.... 
 
 
now where's that bog...? the cramps are returning!
