survive the clams

Monday 7th January 1985

Write postcards and watch them franked at 6.50 a go in the post office. Get directed to telephone office. Polite lady connects me to Air Burma office in Bangkok and I confirm my reservation, 8B.
Explore town, watch the catch brought in by rough looking Thai fishermen in jocular mood at the quay side fish market. Women do all the buying. Lunch on BBQ chicken rice and bananas and milk for about 20B. Dine on squid and broccoli as bowels have survived the clams.
