Bangkok Shopping

We've just hacked our way through the 'mother of all markets' at Chatuchak. Not a watch in sight, but tons of food, flowers, clothing both second hand and new, 'antiques', souvenirs and general junk. We rode the sky train from end to end - very comfortable, air conditioned etc., and are now in a mall where we got 20 mins of internet access for 20p. Not bad!! Now heading off to another mall where we hope to get watches and software...... which we have a list of. Bangkok apartment is compact but clean and airconditioned and still bigger than a hotel room! People here friendly and not nearly as aggressive in the market as we found in KL and still the iced coffee is top of our refreshment choices!! Last night we managed to buy deep fried chicken take away from a hawker stall down the road along with a nice salad and a couple of beers....no one seems to speak much English beyond hello and how are you! No internet access in the apartment, so blogging could be a bit intermittent...... take care all - see you soon!
