so after that (sat morn) got metro etc to trans sib station in moscow. nice compartments, shared with 2 american girls, trish and liz and we had a spare bunk as a table. my god the toilets were hoorendous and i mean horrendous, hellish, absolutelt\y stunk. again got tangled up with some russion soldiers (not like that, just drinks and chat-well pointing etc). mikhel massaged my feet (nothing else and i mean nothing else)!! I want my husn\band remember. got some cool pics of the soldiers he he :)

I am sitting here at my desk just chuckling whilst reading your blog. You are sooo funny! Sounds like you are having an absolute blast! I love the fact that you are getting on with the Russian soldiers and they are loving your roll ups. So funny when you can hear them walking down the corridor of the train and all you can understand is 'Helen'. What the hell are they saying? Prob something like, 'that bird Helen is some crazy chick who keeps asking me to get it on the leg and she also wants me to catch her rats, must be some new sex talk we don't know about' haha!!! If only they knew eh?
Can you receive texts then hun? Didn't realise you could, I would have been inundating you by now!!! Anyway, you take care xxxxx
