its been 2 weeks since my last blog and theres sooo much to report ... so here we go ,
from koh pha-ngan we got the boat / mini bus / tuk tuk / long boat to burma!, purely on a visa run , so we had another 30 days in thailand!, the burmeise people were an eye opener, - no teeth and spitting blood, however they did know the manchester united vs liverpool score, and chelsea arnel score ! Viagra was also offered to us by the smiley burmeise characters we met for 10 mintues!
back on the boat, passport stamped and heading down to phuket to see mr carey!
we arrived about 11 in the evening, and for the first time in 2 weeks we had air con but not only that interent , wii, tv a kitchen it was heaven!,
the next day we rented bikes for 4 days, jake showed us awesome places to eat and we joined in with a football practise with the teachers at jakes school! great fun, that night we were showed the delites of patong ( lady boy capital of thailand), i seem to remeber cox got up on a table where they wer all dancing and got abused!, ( theres a pic on facebook i think!), that night me and tom followed a truck of screaming thai girls to phuket town , then got bored so went on the road back to jakes and had a feast at 7-eleven!! mmmm thailand has an amazing version of the pot noddle,
we spent a few more days around jakes relaxing , going to the cinema (we saw rambo 4! awful film), and played alot of PES in a massive shopping centre called central.
jake also showed us a supermarket called super cheap that sells everything and anything, i bought a spider man outfit and the most amzing fruit shake all for under 3 quid!, we all went off to a small resturant which was in someones house, where jake claimed they sold the best chiken curry ever...and it was!, they we also showing football there ( if carlsberg made curry houses....came to mind), the day after on the 27th we all went to an amzing beach called laem sing during the day and then foolishly went to see a scarey movie called SHUTTER!, after about 10 mins me and tom were hiding behind our clothes and closing our eyes while jake and coxy wer being amused more by our reaction to the film rather than the film itself!!,
the night of the 28th was always going to be a big one TOM'S BIRTHDAY!, that day was really just the calm before the storm , me and cox went off on our bikes and saw a waterfall and a gibbon sanctuary, we then headed across to patong to check out some diving trips, i booked a three day open water course, and cox is coming on the boat to do some snorkling!, that evening we ate the hottest curry in my life and consumed the most water in my life!...,
we then got a taxi into patong and had an amzing night out - singing in a bar called U2 ( rock bar) - dancing in various clubs - meeting a load of jakes brilliant freinds and celebrating tj's 19th!,
the next day was a hectic one at the least purely because i found out my card had been blocked! abbey national were useless, n e way 5 days later it was finally sorted thanks to mum contacting them aswell!, ( cheers mum),
on the 30that 7 in the morning we headed off to paradise island ( koh phi phi), we got to the island found cheap accomodation and went straight to the beach!. after an hour of relaxing we headed up a mahuuusive hill to a viewpoint which looked over the bay ( some amazing pics on facebook!) - that evening cox got another tattoo which took 7hours ! while me and tom ate some amzing red curry. While we were playing pool that night we randomly saw two girl we went out with in koh pha-nagn, (emily and katie) tom was tired so gave it a miss, but it turned into a great night out at a bar called the reggae bar the seating is situated around a thai boxing ring, that westerners are aloud to fight in!.. i ditn fancy a fight with either of the girls and some guys ( also from koh pha-nagn ) wernt up for it... so we went to the club above and danced infront of and industrial sized fan for hours!,
the next day we went on a boat trip around various islands, bamboo island, shark point ( unfortunatly no sharks present!), monkey island!, viking caves and maya bay ( where the beach was filmed, and the nicest beach ive seen in my life! - fantabulous!)
we arrived back on phi phi don pretty knacked after jumping off boats and swimming all day!....that evening we started off by working for an irish bar doing pr work and advertising the free bbq and buy one get one free on drinks, for every couple off people we got in a drink was supplied to us! so a free night ahead was on the cards, but tom and cox wanted to experience the reggae bar so we all left the bar and met back up with the girls... then me and tom got in the ring!.. tom knocked me down once but i ended up the winner after a series of jabs and kicks...then coxy got amongst it and fought a guy from harrow ..he mullered him and got another win for the llandod boxing champs!!...although to the day cox is not sleeping well due to bruising around his neck!, owww,
on the 1st i finally got my card sorted!!!, which was a massive relief ( cheers tom for lending me money , and thanks sarah from abbey national for being the only person able to unblock a card!)... more pro evolution soccer was played that day.. a massive tournament infact , that evening we ate way to many kebabs and also devoured yet another red curry!,
koh lanta was our next destination we got there on the 2nd, it was just getting into low season so there wer hardly n e people and it was so cheap and relaxing!.. i stayed up to watch the liverpool arsnel game that night and met thailands 50 cent!, il upload some pics soon, his name was seck, he lived in phuket but was out in lanta to chill ( as he would put it!) , after the game he took me to a small resturant called mr green where nothing on the menu was over 80p!, madness... so we had a feast.
then went back to another room with air con! all for 3 pound a night each... the next evening we all met back up with seck, after a day on the beach! we played endless games of pool on an immaculate table! - danced in a club called ozone and ate again at mr green, mmm
the next day i decided to rent a bike and explore, tom and coxy didnt fancy it so they endulged in the sir con room,
i went to another viewpoint and had a meal looking across sandy beaches / island and clear waters!, i then rode on and saw a sign for a cave so had to follw it. after navigating my way through pot holes and past women holding machetties i got to the ticket office .... jumped off my bike ... and was faced with a load of familiar faces! it was dan, terry and gabrielle a group of guys n gal we met in chiang mai!, they had also follwed the random sign and passed scarey women with machetties,
n e way we all got tickets and headed into the cave!, it was extremely hot in there and tight in places crawling through a 12" by 40" hole was part of the trek through the cave!, we all cought up and had a wiked time, watching vampire bats fly out in a massive swarm was an experience!,
that evening we all met back up at the pool table and seck joined aswell... a big thai singer T-bone was playing on the island so we drank our changs and headed off to see him, average darts... but some shapes were thrown!,
the next day cox wanted to see the north of the isalnd that id talked about so we went up and did a bit of shopping. the previous day id seen a football pitch, so me and tom went off on the bike to see if we could play... firstly we had a game with a few thai children, then about 20plus thai man turned up on bikes in full france, real, united, liverpool kits, and we all had a massive game! luckily it wasnt thai vs farangs ( foreigners!), so we wernt outnumbered! we had to finish early beacuse tom twisted his ankle!...again so thats a bit s***!, but he thinks it'l be better in a few days!,
that evening we went to an irish bar and had a gorgeous bbq while wathcing another clash between arsnel and liverpool!... cox and tom went back and i continued the night meeting back up with dan, lewis, gabby, terry and seck .. we played pool, went to a club full of thai people and again had a midnight feast at mr greens.... that night i got home and coxy said my house tried to call??? so i rang home and got mum!, all the relatives were over and going out in builth! hope you all had a great night!!,
