BTW two little moments that really struck me...
When I checked into the hotel, just as I was heading up to the room, the guy at the desk said as an afterthought, "If you bring a lady up to your room, there is a fee of 1000 baht!" Well, I told him that there won't be any of that!!!! :)

Then at the tailors, while I was choosing material, I asked how much each shirt would cost. Victor said "1000 baht". I actually felt sick. I'd come all this way to get what were supposed to be really reasonably priced shirts and now I'm being charged so much money???? Honestly it was an awful moment. Then I asked for a calculator... and it worked out that this 1000 baht was only a mere NZ$40 each. Bloody hell, this is insanely cheap!!! Ok, so it remains to be seen how they turn out, but so funny to watch my own reactions changing so wildly.
