Location: Kuala Belait
9am, Tuesday morning, 2 days to go

I don't think today is going to be a good day. The cake people were just very rude to me. This is so weird. People just don't do that in Brunei... I don't understand. I wasn't even being difficult. I can't handle that early in the morning. Can't really yell over the phone as don't want them to spit on the cake. Anyway, NOT happy. Am going to check out the other bakery and then see if I can get my money back and get a cake from somewhere else. Petty, and yet so satisfying...

The cake is for a bit of a 'goodbye' dinner tonight. We even have 8 bottles of wine and 4 packs of 24cans of Tiger beer. Should be more than enough for 17 people some of whom don't drink (obviously, not me)

So yes - if you are ever in Kuala Belait, and you need a cake, do NOT go to the Ribonette Cafe. They are mean to customers.

I am still struggling with the Blog - there are things that I want to write down but I don't think I should - unless I password protect my blog. I keep worrying about work reading it and then firing me for passing on some random bit of information I didn't even realise I was passing on.
There seem to be a number of cases cropping up in the newspapers where people get fired for the most random things in their blogs - e.g. woman putting up a picture of herself in Delta uniform (getting fired from Delta Airlines), and that teacher who had a picture of herself with a beer (who got fired for sending inappropriate message) - I mean that is totally random. Not logical. How would you ever know?

So I am thinking of password -protecting so that I can write down everything and not worry about crap like that.
What do you think? It's an extra step for people.....
