Today, Jen hit the dive boat with some friends to fun dive. I waved goodbye and settled down to another tedious afternoon.

However, around 3 pm, a huge pile of crap washed up. I went down to start clearing up, and soon a few more people gave a hand… around 15 in all.

What a terrible sight… and took hours to clean. It was dark, and then another pile came in.. so we all dragged the crap up, and found this in amongst it… still trying to identify it.

What this shows you is how damaging just throwing the smallest piece of rubbish in the ocean can be. It all collects together and traps creatures, usually killing them… such a bloody waste. I would also like to point the finger at the people who sat at the bar drinking beers and not lending a single hand, as if we do this for the fun of it? Come on people… its OUR BLOODY PLANET!

Many thanks to the people who did lend a hand. Thanks guys.

Woke this morning to the lovely sound of  an angle grinder & various banging!   The building work next door has been a bit of a pain but when you fancy a lie in, it’s really annoying ;-D

Today after brekkie,  I cleaned the apartment which was very dusty and did most of my washing whilst Si relaxed and played ‘Battle Field II’ on his pc.     It’s been pretty gloomy outside, so havent really had the urge to go out.  I think tonight we’ll pop down to Crystal and watch an Open Water video or two and go to the Mexican for dinner

For me, no news… I spent yesterday watching the trilogy of Back to the Future, waiting for the rain to go… today.. more of the same.

On the ears front, no massive changes… although the extremity of the itchiness has abated… but seems like it might be returning. So, a couple more days before making a decision to return to Samui or not. Its only my 3rd day on tablets, so can’t expect miracles.

Anyway, here was our view and morning drive… such a pleasure… Monsoon is definately here! This was filmed as the rain was stopping!
