Alrritee guys @!! In Puket After, I left u last in Chang Mai let me just see where I got to..... oh yeah sum badd bad feast!!! Turned out I had som chilli con can Thai style Woh MUMMER fire in the hole style!! Any ways next day went on a cooking course which was fairly dam fun me t som interesting peez+ am now thai cooking master with certificate of excellence and all!! Got sum random polish guy sending me the pics of it when he gets back from trekking in the next few days!!! Any ways left Chang Mai after the course but couldnt go by my booked train due to 'flash flooding'which is said to have caused serious damage in central THailand i think thats thai for charge them more to catch the bus!! ' so lets get this straight when i was in the travel agent I booked the train because it is more comfortable than the bus even thou its more expensive and now thats flooded your going to take my refund and use it to pay for the bus... yes that will be 200b... What...thats the diffrence.. i see... so what your infact telling me is yr laughing in my face cos Im in a tricky situation and u know it! finish this later gtg right back in the game, so any ways I left Chang Mai at 7 and proceeded to get into Bangkok at 5 in the morning, with no where to go/ stay ... oh any ways as events would perspire I couldnt catch my bus till 7 in the evening! So what do u do in such a situation, u might even think a bit of fun lovin free style bumbing is on the cards, but as they say there's no shopping like Bangkok where its 35 degrees and so humid u dont even have to shower in the morning to wash the dirt off yr back ... or do they?? So what does the travel agent say ... 'Go to the bangkok royal park, its lovely there not too far from here and you can sleep or a bench if u want.' So i set off, that way she says oh its that way 2 hours that way at 35 degrees so humid if u r gonna have that shower do so with yr clothes on cos they will be stuck to yr back in 15 mins any way!! So i get there settle down on a bench start dosing and a lizard comes out from under my bench... 5 foot long..... have a snooze she says! ANy way saw xmen 3! had lunch and finish tommorrow going to meet 2 ozzy's. Right back again, After lunch I get on a Tut tut who says he knows where a good massage so takes me into this back alley and into this massage place where I come into a section of comfortable looking sofa's facing a glass window behind stands a line of thai girls in their bikins! By this point im thinking OH MY GOD! The guy bringing me in sits me down and says ' Massage, beer and BAng BAng 2 hours 5000 B', 'errrr I was thinking more just a massage mmm errr Im not sure this is really my err seen....' - FLEE!! I ended up leaving and beening massaged some where else, I go in and there about 6 proffessional looking Thai massage girls, end up paying for my massage bout 7 pounds quite expensive not ttooo bad thou, they take me into the back only for me to find Ive got some thai guy instead!! Thats cool Im thinking....... cos i dont really mind ...... after 10 minutes of massage and its obvious the guy is gayer than Gramam Nortan and just not funny, im looking around for exits! Having almost decided to stand up and leave i decide to stick out the last 10 minutes as i have already paid! I cant say I enjoyed my experience, and I cant say it was value for money!! In fact there's nothing good to say aout it, all in all a pretty traumatic afternoon! Looking back v funny so thats somee thing! Any ways bumped into two english guys I met on the way down from Chang Mai, 'I thought u where catching the first train south??' I asked them this was replied with blank looks ' Oh we tried, we've been here all day 628 games of cards and 6 KFC's and its beging to look like where gonna have to catch the bus!' It finnally got to 7 and I caught the bus south!! - 20 hours it took to get there at 40 mph we travelled for about 9 hours and waited for about 11 at stops along the way and changes- thai buses unque experence! We arrived in Puket where I was to send 3 nights and then head to Koh Samui! Puket was a increadiable torist resort!!! Amazing beach loads and loads of stuff to do bars excursions ect great place to go on holiday unfourtunately this ment there were next to no back packers in the entire place!! By some increadible stoke of luck thou walking round thinking must find back packers I spotted two likely looking girls across the street so I thought id ask them what they knew! Turns out there 2 ozzy back packers thinking exactly the same as me! Ended up chillin out with them all of my 3 nights there had a gd time! booked a boat trip the second day which I thought would be good for meeting other travellers unfourtunately I had 1 too many beers the night before and slept ova the meeting deadline!! Luckly I manged to convince the tour operator I had been struck down by by a disgusting case of food poisoning leaving me unable to leave my room not want to hear the details she agreed to book me in for the next day at no extra charge! It would seem thought that when u cheat fate it has a way of repaying u!! 30 people on my all day boat trip, not 1 traveller!! Not 1 person under 30 except the over 30's kids!! Despite this blatent set back the boat trip was breath taking seeing all the islands around where the film the beach was filmed, and the actual island and beach its self!! I had a fun 3 days in puket its a great place if a bit toristy for a back packer. Forgot to mention meet a 3 english girls who I spent some beach time with, who live in Sussex, 1 of who lifes in Tenterden with her mum- Where I use to life, went to school in Cranbrook to the same school OWen went to and her brother went to Kings in Canterbury same as owen and when she see's her dad he lives in Cobham where the 'Ross' Dentist surgery is and where my Granny resides!!! Small world. In Koh Samui now till next time s xxx
