Slow Start, Big Finish

Started today with a well deserved sleep in. Was still buzzing from Raja last night reliving the experience in my head. A late breakfast was on the cards so we met up with Tony and a friend of his that arrived last night, Vicki all the way from Canadian land ayy. A snap decision to head to MBK and the 3rd level which consists of nothing but phone shops across the whole floor, finally got my blackberry fixed with a new trackball, Yay I can now scroll upwards again! After this we walked up to Action Zone, it was finally open and was well worth the walk, a brief stop off at the little tea stall for Tony's favourite drink in the world. Its a Chinese tea with condensed milk served cold. Was bit of a critic at first but I'm now addicted.

Tony and his tea.

So we walk into Action Zone... AKA Heaven, Twins, King and Top King gear stacked wall to wall and so cheap! Picked up two of the newest Twins training bags for 1100baht each, a couple pairs of the M-150 shorts for 200b each and placed a few orders for some gloves to arrive next week. Pretty glad the snap decision was made to head to MBK.

Location of Action Zone for anyone ever wanting to find it in Bangkok.

Back to 13 Coins for the arvo training session, started with a 4km jog. Wrapped the hands and jumped on the bag for a few rounds. The Supertik called me up to hit pads, at this point in time I wasn't to impressed due to last time him slaughtering my foot with his pads but, this time round he seemed a little more gentle but still put me well and truly through my paces. Did four 5min rounds on the pads then into some clinching with the second biggest Thai nugget I've met, taught me some cool little tricks to do in the clinch and also how to avoid said tricks. These shall remain my secret until I see fit. Few Hundred sit ups then into the sauna, quick towel off then into the ring with Seanchai I went for bit of sparring. He of course played me the fool but hey, I sparred Seanchai, have you. More sit ups then back into the Sauna and BAM up to the room for a shower!

Sauna time! Sike, they're the saunas at Raja though.

Which leaves me here, writing this. In other news Seanchai has a movie premiering on the 29th April, he's invited Micheal and myself down to see it with him so this should be entertaining. Also staring in the movie is Buakaw Por Pramuk, Yodseanklai Fairtex and Annuwat Keawsamrit. Hopefully the three of them shall be there!
