I know I can ask a few BM's for advice and assistance...real friendly bunch here. Al this talk about the hot freakin weather in April is a little disheartning. I hate it real hot, but it is the only time I can go for the moment. I am really keen to visit Pattaya now but still wanna see some friends in Phuket...and I owe the locals some tourist dollars, given recent events. Anyhow thanks all for the tips I will proberly ask a fair few questions closer to the date of departure. Cheers. ps. Shit yeah! drinks will be bought fr BM's I encounter in LOS!
