I was in PP in November and got stopped for no helmet - police initially requested $5, just gave him a smile and said I'd give them 10,000 riel which they happily accepted, no haggl...

I actually clocked this myself when playing against bargirls a few years back. :D Don't know how, but one day it just "clicked" and after that I'd never lose. I'd play a few games - after promising to buy them the obligatory drink should I lose - then proceed to demolish them every time! After a whi...

Must just be me who has noticed the irony in a poster called "White Rabbit" complaining about "druggies"...

"One pill makes you larger...!?"

I don't live in Cambodia anymore, but when I occasionally check in to forums relating to it I can't help but notice the increasing prevalence of utter pussies who seem to have inexplicably found their way there...

^What a job! Bet there's good money in it too.

View from the restaurants: http://i39.tinypic.com/kt5pw.jpg .. I've been to that beach too, nice and relaxing spot. If you continue on around that road, before you get to the Naval base entrance, there are a couple more empty beaches on the headland which are hardly ever visited. You have to go off...
