Work, food and football

It's been a ridiculous few weeks. 

Work has been pretty full on, but unlike in the UK, when I come back home it's not just TV then bed! Here there are loads of cool things to do, see and eat. I've not managed to take many photos but will put on some of the ones I've taken in no particular order...

At the weekend we went to a massive mall (again!) which on one floor turns into a "Tokyo Street". Everything is laid out in a kind of Japanese style and you get to see lots of traditional Japanese stuff. It's really good so I thought I'd do the stereotypical peace sign pose!

This is me (very hungover) outside the main staircase for Tokyo street. On the way home from this shopping trip I had to ask the taxi driver to pull over and walk the last 400m in torrential rain because I was still feeling so rough from the night out before! - We had gone for a casual drink with work people then it turned out to be one of their stag do's. A few pints later I pretty much just tag along on this stag do (forgetting to have dinner too). I was so happy to find cider that I just got a bit over excited and ended up being sick at home. It was pretty funny going in on Monday morning and seeing the guys and piecing together my night!

These mini cupcakes from the brilliantly named: Wondermilk were delicious - I'm not sure if they were healthy though! We followed this by going to "Fatboy's Burgers" which again wasn't the most healthy of choices!

 I saw loads of people taking photos outside of this shop front and thought it was pretty gimmicky so wanted to take the piss. I later found out it had opened that day and Robbie Fowler had been there with the opening. I wonder if he still wears his nose band now he's retired... The funniest bit was the replica champions league trophy they had outside. People were taking photos of it and posing next to it. Hannah asked me if it was the real one and for a moment I had to think about it. Then I remembered:
1. They haven't won it for a decade
2. It would be in the club not in Malaysia
3. If it was in Malaysia it wouldn't be in some crappy mall
4. They had 1 security guard watching over it.

 I think this photo speaks for itself.

 Big fish. They had a video screen in the sushi place we had lunch of this fish being brought in. It was a monster! Would have made a shit load of sushi though.

 This is my Jack Daniels float at Fatboys burger place. It was lush. They are a big fan of the float here and so am I. Sometimes it gets a bit curdley and I sometimes feel a bit sick after one but it's all part of the fun.

Living the high life! We only had a choice between expensive vodka (around 20 quid) or a really cheap one (under a fiver). I don't want to know what is in the cheap one! The mixer of choice was mango juice though in an interesting bottle!

Sorry the blog has been a bit poop this week but next weekend we get a 3 day weekend! Han and I are going to head into town as tourists and try to see lots of things which I'll take photos of. If anyone is actually reading this and wants to propose a ridiculous photo idea for me to try and take next weekend, send me a message on facebook and I'll try to do it!

Work and Home

Hello,

This week has been mental with work, so I haven't been able to be out and about doing fun things. Mainly I've just been at work (even on my Saturdays) or going to one of the cheap restaurants in Sri Hartamas which is a 5 min walk away.

Here are some of the photos taken from Verve Suites where we live:

This is just a ridiculously lush all you can eat we had. You pick stuff to boil in the 2 soups. It was delicious!

Here are some photos of our flat:

It's pretty lush and there's a lot of storage!

I'm not going to write very much more this week because it's 6pm and this is the first free time I've had all week! Work is great but has been very intense, and I'm trying to make the most of being in this wonderful Country!
