Oh dear last night we had the worst night of the trip so far. Firstly there are far too many ex-pat, dirty old men in this area (south Thailand/Malaysia) who are here for totally the wrong reasons. To be honest its started to get very annoying.
The walls in our cell like room (no windows) were paper thin (well plywood thin). At maybe three or four o'clock in the morning our neighbour awoke us with some shouting, F***ing this and that. We listened for a while and the guy started getting absolutely furious about something. There seemed to be some type of argument going on. As we listened more we got more and more concerned about the situation and hoped someone from the hotel would intervine. The guy continually slammed his door to his room and we realised actually there was only one person in this argument, he was screaming and shouting at himself. He was shouting "Get off my skin" continually, and scrubbing with a brush at something (we're guessing himself). He was either on drugs or mentally ill. This must of continued for an hour or so unable to get to sleep as we were concerned about our security.
In the morning no-one had anything to say about it, everyone just ignored it had happening. We decided it wasn't safe enough so we moved first thing to another guesthouse.
As we'd missed out on a load of sleep and steadily falling out with the city we didn't actually do much all day and agreed to leave tomorrow morning.
