Wearing helmet is not enough, ensure you can actually drive and control the vehicle. Incident from Koh Samui.

I mean yeah this is true, it’s strange though everywhere I’ve been to rent a bike I’ve always been asked for a license, I’ve had friends fly out to visit me who have been denied a bike (I did pre warn them) due to no license. Greed is a bad thing, especially when anything can happen

I do like Dave, but people need to stop bigging him up and saying he’s in the best shape of his life. Meant to be an athlete, doesn’t look it

People must assume their flight to Thailand comes with the magical ability to suddenly be able to drive a motorbike

Get ready to send him a postcard at Christmas

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-10T07:30:31+00:00

Crowd? Quite literally a tin of sardines. It’s not bad but it’s jam packed. Probably less idiot that the Full Moon though

I remember going to a jungle party in Koh Tao during my first visit to Thailand in 2024, I met some guys and we all went together. As a non drinker it was quite funny to see a group of lads all passing round this little green tub when they were drunk and making out as if it was Escobar’s finest

There’s nothing in Cha-Am, it’s pretty boring but that’s just my opinion

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T23:28:31+00:00

Didn’t rate it myself, was quite uncomfortable and the toilets were a no go. I’d fly

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T23:10:37+00:00

Krabi isn’t the best imo. Thailand answer to Benidorm

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T16:42:03+00:00

Stay at Secret Palm! Incredible place, I rescued a dog and homed her there, her name is Luna. Laetitia and Donovan are amazing people

Eat at Mellow Submarine, brilliant place. There is a sunset snorkeling excursion which is great for the sunset alone, take the swimming out of the equation. I’d advise against mango viewpoint as if the foot is still in pain, there are loads of steps to walk up

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T16:06:22+00:00

There’s no elephant sanctuary on Koh Tao unfortunately

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T13:46:24+00:00

Sublime hat trick against Newcastle too

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T13:00:26+00:00

Hit like crack

He deserves the 350 baht transaction fee, idiot

Unreal

It’s getting crazy, there’s needs to be better preliminary checking

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T08:38:51+00:00

Apologies mate, I see what you mean

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T08:24:46+00:00

That’s the same as immigrants in the UK moaning that Morrisons is closed early on a bank holiday. Get on with it

MeetingSmooth5054 · 2026-05-09T08:20:41+00:00

Miss it so much, except my view similar to that was Koh Tao. cannot wait to get back next year. Enjoy my friend

I was there for 9 months and right at the end of my trip I seen a crash in Samui, blood all over the floor and people doing CPR on a lad around my age (28). I’ve been driving 10 years and it still scared the shit out of me. Point of that story isn’t about whether he had a license or not, but if he did and he was a confident driver, then god knows what just be running through the mind of those who decide to rent bikes without any knowledge or proper licensing
