Back from Penang

Back from a food filled trip from Penang. Everything seems a blur and all the food just clouds out everything else. Must have put on a couple of kgs! Time to go a sensible diet once more. The food frenzied glutony was almost more that my body could take (You'll see what I mean later). On a more serious note, it was great to see the guys and gals from Singapore, Finally can get to put 2 more faces to who you pawn or are pawned by haha - nice to meet Techo aka Hairylegs, Chen (when he smiles, everyone records it as an event on their diary .. hmm) and YY. Yup good to meet up with Suko and Weite as well, the crazy gal from Pineapple town and the quiet, handsome guy from SG (no BB remarks here har!) Kudos to Pillowcat for running around being a tour guide, chauffeur and letting me be a cheapo by staying at his place! I was with him most of the time so I know he must have really been zapped of his energy these last few days, but instead of recuperating after we left, he just went out to watch rush hour 3! Cats have 9 lives; I guess that applies to Pillowcats as well.

Well sorethroat's a little better, so hopefully by tomorrow I'll be at 100% and fully recharged for work. Before I forget, I better update the captain's food log.
