· Other one…

During this week, while Oliver and Liezel were in the office minding their business trying to do whatever-it-is-you-do on lineup, all of a sudden two locals walked into the office. Because the team shares the office with 4 other Thai ladies, Liezel thought they were guests for our Thai office-mates but they kept on talking thai and Liezel’s desk-mate, Kitty, referred the older Lady to Liezel. Surprised Liezel got up to go and meet the Lady. Awkwardness reigned in the office as neither Liezel nor Oliver knew the guests. The lady took out her camera and pointed at the two – now REALLY uncomfortable – shiplings wanting to take their picture. It turns out that this couple came all the way to the team’s office to take a picture of them. Yes people we are now famous. Autographs will be available at 50 Baht a piece!!!

· Other TwoLiving on the ship has sort of made us immune to cockroaches – or so we think. Living on the ship has also made us use stairs more and not be too familiar with elevators (or lifts if you are from South Africa). On Friday night the team was heading back from their last team outing and as usual squished into the tiny elevator that takes them to the sixth floor, their accommodation. When the elevator got to the second or third floor or something in-between Liezel felt something on her arm and thought it a hair or something. A few seconds later Ji Ea let out a gasp as she saw the 6cm long cockroach exploring Liezel’s back. Four line-uppers and one cockroach trapped in ONE elevator the size of a doulos shower! 3 girls and 1 guy trapped in an elevator with a HUGE (that’s what WE thought) cockroach. Kaylee freaked out and so did Ji Ea (less vocal) and Liezel stood their not having any space to turn around or run away or freak out even more so she was left staring at the doors hoping it would open soon… Mr Cool Crispin flicked the monster off the black shirt as the doors opened and the ladies exploded from the lift with hearts racing and pulses beating.
