On The Move Again

It's been quite some time since our last entry and for those that don't know what we've been up to over the last few months I'll fill you in rather quickly. We moved to the Gold Coast, spent 3 and a half months working on Big Brother Australia, schmoozed with Pammy Anderson and Carson Kressley, got the programme decommissioned! Unfortunately we can't really take credit for it being the last series but I'm starting to worry that I might be seen as a bad omen by future employers. Anyhow, we had a great time, met some really fantastic people and had a very drunken last few months down under. Now we are back to doing what we do best - sweet F.A

Two weeks ago we arrived in Thailand and checked ourselves into a very swanky resort in Koh Phangan to celebrate Matt's 30th. We decided to spend a week doing nothing but sleeping, sunbathing and relaxing and that's exactly what we did, bliss. The second resort we went to - Matt decided he was going to have a 'birthday week' -had no other guests so we had the entire place (including pool and private beach) to ourselves.

We then headed over to Koh Samui to meet up with the irrepressible Miss Ellie Newton who has flown over to join us for a few weeks. Ellie's plan has been to join us and catch up on a year's worth of drinking in just 3 weeks and it turns out she wasn't joking. We had also planned to catch up with a couple of friends we made on Big Brother, Jonny and Jacqui, and we stumbled upon them on our first stroll along the beach. The last time we'd seen them was when they left the 'after after party' we had at our apartment following our wrap party. We started off where we left them and the combination of 5 like minded individuals (drunks) has meant lots of partying and some great nights out, one of which resulted in Matt and myself being hauled up on stage at a ladyboy show, dressed in drag with wigs and makeup and then having to dance around the bar. Unfortunately (very fortunately!) Jacqui accidentally deleted all the photos she had taken and so there is no evidence of Matt and I looking like Wilma and Betty from the Flintstones.

Jonny and Jacqui's holiday came to an end, but not before a final night out with them where I managed to lose my shows, as did Ellie, along with her bag which contained her credit card, bank details and, most importantly her Bobbi Brown bronzer. It's all sorted now and we've just spent 4 lovely days in Ko Tao. Matt and I went diving to a couple of sites and Ellie went snorkeling. Unfortunately (very fortunately!) she came across a large jellyfish, panicked, swallowed vast amounts of water, vomited, and then had to snorkel through it. She assures us that she's still having a wonderful time, as are we, and tonight it's the infamous Full-Moon Party in Koh Phangan so who knows what will happen - can't wait.
