Second rule of camping. Hide your supplies, cos if the thieving Thais don't get them, the local wildlife will will, usually by stealth & at night.

A green for the first person to correctly name this beast that was rummaging thru our stuff.

The camp at 9am ish.

The campsite was empty when we arrived last Thursday.

What do TG's do whilst camping? i was gonna post a whole series of shots before the battery ran dry.

Here a TG is sewing some frills around a table cover. How sweet.

We spent a nice few days with some friends up on the mountain. The nights were freezing & the days boiling. I managed to get sun burnt. I also managed to make friends with an elderly Thai couple next door and they spent their time making me Ham salads, cos I said I didn't eat Thai food.

Oh, I forgot to mention. There are two options should you want to re-stock your supplies (leaving aside the camp shops for the moment). About 40k one way is Pak Chong(sp) & 45k the other way is Bar-Gin(sp). We usually go down to PC, cos the market & Tescos are situated nearby. As we were rather pissed off with using camping lights, I got a local electrical shop to make us up a neon strip light with 10 meters of cable etc. I also bought a big fok-off outdoor extension cable for the computers & goblin teas-made.
