well I have another week off beginning of Jan and fancied a trip to the islands - thought I would head for the backpacker island mecca itself - KPang nan (or however the fuck you spell it)

Now I now this place seems to be ridiculed by the long timers in TL but it can't be all that bad if it's so popular - any one have anything good to say about the place as I'm not fussy...

it seems to have the right ingredients for me - ie: pussy on Ko Samui (can you get this in KPGan?) , dope to smoke , and chilled out people to talk to ........who has been?

Probably get the train down there.

kenkannif · 15-12-2005, 07:50 PM

I spent about three months there over the Millenium.

It's okay for puff and that (I did loads of valiums there). When I was there there weren't much pussy though.

Also you do get loads of annoying ****s there for the full moon parties....I got sick of it all after a month or so.

It's alright, worth going if you ain't been before mate.

I've never been CE but as you say thousands of drug users head there each month so it must have its charm if you're into that.
Wally went there with a poster who was mugged and gang raped by 6 ladtboys I believe.
Lots of guys get smashed and wake up on the beach relieved of wallet, cards, watch etc.
I think you should do a field report for us.
Have you gat a digital camera?

Such a character!

Well I cant say that KPG is either paradise or a drosshole nowadays but when I was there it was a paradise. I learned that shortly after we visited and stayed just a couple of weeks the yids took over the full moon party and I was glad that we had gone there when we did.
Here is a pic of The Cap and his squeeze just after we arrived on KPG.

Unsurprizingly, we missed the connecting boat to Haad Rin where we were gonna stay so we just waited for about 4 hours. We didnt get bored though coz we had this game we used to play when we were stuck for something to do. Use your imaginations folks.

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 09:57 PM

This was to be our home for the time we stayed on KPG. It was more than adequate with a hong nam attached at the back. It was right on the beach and we spent many hours just whittling on our balcony.

It was cheap as chips and it was stumbling distance from the bar.

Hey, anyone know the name of this place? It's somewhere on Had Rin.(thanks for your reply btw, Captain).

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 10:00 PM

Here is a nice pic of our lass asleep with the gentle sound of tiny waves lapping at the beach only 100 metres away.

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 10:01 PM

The view from our beach hut.

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 10:03 PM

Here is a nice pic of the icon that you use to post a pic on the forum coz I fokked up.

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 10:04 PM

Here it is again coz I fokked up again.

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 10:06 PM

Ahh! Here is the pic that I had hoped to post. It is a view of Haad Rin Beach from one of the many bars that front the beach. Note the volleyball net. I persuaded all the gals on my team to play topless.

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 10:07 PM

This is the bar that I took the last pic from.

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 10:09 PM

Here is a pic of The Cap taken up the bloody hill that she made me walk up. I had to sit down when I got up there. Oh and that is Haad Rin Beach in the background.

Captain Sensible · 15-12-2005, 10:15 PM

And finally, this shot is similar to the last one but I think it was taken at low tide.

And that is all the pics that I have of KPG. Well, I do have more but they are speculum shots and may well be off topic.

I remember fondly my/our trip to KPG and I believe that if you are into tranquility, there are still places on the north side of the island where you can get away from civilizaton, though you will have to go to bed early unless you bring some candles as there isnt any electricity.

My opinion? KPG is fantastic.

Marmite the Dog · 16-12-2005, 09:50 AM

Nice postings Cap! I'm sure KPG is not as nice now though.

Goddess of Whatever · 16-12-2005, 10:50 AM

Looks nice. I have never been to the south before and it's still on my plan but don't know when I have a chance to visit there.

I'm thinking about Songkran, I will try to go there.

Same me. The most south I have been was Hua Hin. Something like Phuket (I have been invited there from a neighbour) is definitely on my list.

aging one · 16-12-2005, 11:18 AM

If you are going at Songkran book now Samui and KPG are booked out at that time with people sleeping in tents and wats.
