Things that are good

This post will be an ongoing post about things that have stood out to us as being excellent:

- Westminster Abbey
- London public transport
- Shopping in Harrods
- The friendly staff at Balan's 2 cafe in Earls Court
- Malteaser ice creams
- Marks & Spencer Simply Food
- London cabs with tvs in them
- Maple & Pecan pastries from Tesco express
-
The Crown Jewels
- Aquamarine Hotel, Phuket
-
Ting and some other waiter who taught me to say "Hoi" properly at the Aquamarine
- Snorkelling at Phi Phi Island
- Singha beer
- Weather in Phuket
- Our luxury cab ride into Patong and pick-up by same to return to the hotel when every other poor fool was stuck with god-awful tuk-tuks
- The exchange rate of AUS$ to Thai baht

- Windsor

- Salisbury Cathedral

- The Old Post House B&B - best breakfast and shower we've had in England

- Not paying the 1400 baht departure tax we were told we'd have to pay upon leaving Bangkok

- Old Sarum

- Portchester castle

- The crepe girl in Paris

- Barcelona

- Spanish food
