Hi guys,
Last time I was on tour, I spent many a happy sunrise in Didi's Bar next to VIP.
A couple of times me, Chris and Jurgen (Power Bar Boys) would go there when the Power Bar closed around 2.30 - 3.00am.
I recommend the chicken nuggets with the garlic sauce (only 90 baht!) and the FREE game of pool and hospitality that comes with it.
Talking of late nights/early mornings, I remember when me and Jurgen had been playing pool in the Paradise Complex because I wanted to see a friend. They were working in a club until 4.00am (rehearsals. we went in but got bored so we played pool next door). It was my last night, and the taxi was coming to my hotel at 7.00 am. At 5.30 am we finished drinking and playing pool and went to Captain Hooks, a 24hr restaurant. The food was fantastic. Jurgen had 3!!! Chicken soups!!! the greedy bastard
At 6.45am, I arrived at my hotel. I had not slept one bit, I was very MAO, and the taxi was coming in 15 minutes AND I had not packed ONE THING!!!
The girls at the hotel were laughing. They made my bill, I packed my bag (I only ever take hand luggage
), had a quick shower and then was out the hotel like a tornado!!!!
I may have bored people with this story before, but im going to tell it again
.............. The morning that I left, I did not have a booked flight to Bangkok. My plane back to England was 2.30am in Bangkok, and all flights from Phuket to Bangkok were full for the day before!!!! I was shitting myself bigstyle. If I missed my flight it would cost me around 30,000 baht for another. I HAD to get from phuket to Bangkok. That is why the taxi picked me up at 7.00am
I got to Phuket airport by 8.00am . I went to the desk desperate for a flight. They told me someone had cancelled, and I had a seat at 3.00pm . I only had to wait 7 hours
but at leat I knew I would be in Bangkok. I told the lady my flight was at 2.00pm and I would pay big money to get on an earlier flight. She put me on Standby for the 10.30 flight and I was the second name called out!!!! If I could not get a flight at all, I was going to hire a tiaxi to drive me from Phuket to Bangkok !!!!!! YIKES !!!!
I was absolutely wrecked!! I was still pissed and had no sleep for over 28 hours!! When I got to Bangkok I was so happy. I knew I was going home. I went to the Amari Hotel, and gave them a small fortune (1,000 baht for 3 hours) in their hotel room. I didnt even get a blow job!! But the sleep was fantastic.
Somebody before was talking in a post about relaxing on holiday...... I have been to Thailand now 7 times in just over 2 years. I have been to Phuket 6 times, and the last tour was the FIRST time i had EVER been on the beach and in the sea at Patong
My body is a temple........... Old and ruined......... If I want to relax, I stay in bed. If I want to feel alive, then SAWATDEE PATONG!!!
