Odds and ends

So, despite all my blogging, I still didn't manage to mention:
- wedding day music played LOUD from 5am, like the early morning Adhan in Muslim countries, but endless and interspersed with horse racing commentary
- the "Iron Ox" tractors
- bikes, mopeds and step-throughs used to carry everything and everyone, beds, live chickens, building supplies, multiple people, babies and animals
- Tuk tuks powered by puny little 110cc engines pulling four grown men and the rider
- people and kids using the only English they know: "Hellogoodbye" when they see you.
- my academic treatise on waving in Cambodia (less popular than India, but still effective at smile inducing)
- Mick's on-high night time adventure with a frog catcher who nearly got soaked
- the hot cold drinks, and the cold hot drinks
- our addiction to Royal D electrolyte powder
- me being left behind twice, at Ta Prohm AND then by the coach going to the. airport (somebody trying to tell me something?)
- and no doubt many other things
