Lord Noel Meets Another Cool Dude

What ho! Pepys...


Last night we went to the cafe area of the Rainbow Lodge where we are currently residing, and had a lovely Malaysian meal. Lady J had chicken in fried rice and I had a similar thing which was wrapped in an omelette. Delcious! Each dish was only 8 RM each (£1.60)


At 10pm we headed for the beach and went to a little beach bar called 'Little Lylias' where there was an amazing guitarist playing and singing jazz versions of Pink Floyd and Bob Marley. He did a version of The Wall (part2) that just blew us away and all he had as accompaniment was another guy on a conga drum. At one point they were joined by the Boss who owns the place and he sang a few songs too. 


The thunder and lightening just added to the cosy effect as the rain poured down and the remaining customers settled themselves down for a long drink under the palm leaf roofs of the bar as the music continued late into the night.

It turns out the Boss is an architect working in London who has also designed stage sets for Glastonbury and is running this bar as his retirement plan. He also does great artwork which is spread around the place. The thing I love about journeys like this is meeting new people. Especially when they're as cool as this guy.


If you get the chance you should definitely go along to Little Lylia's and go meet the Boss.

Tallyho!

Best Wishes - Lord Noel
