By some rare stroke of good luck I managed to swing a few days leave last week just as a few old mates were flying into Thailand on the good old “business trip to Thailand” thing. Our plan was to check out a fishing charter somewhere down the east coast and spend a few days drinking beer and chasing tuna. I anticipated that things would get a bit messy along the way, but forgot about how much fun can be packed into a 3 or 4 day trip to Thailand.
