    Hi John

    The owner Dong visits Japan once a year, most of his koi come from Dainichi and Maruyama koi farm.

    Hi Keith, did you have a good time? That dealer had a misspelt sign a few years ago ‘ Phuket fancy crap “ hope he’s changed it , lol I was thinking about you when you went because it was exceptionally cold up in Khon Kaen then and my wife was in Phuket then and she kept putting pics up of her on the beach , I think it could be grounds for divorce you were in the best place . Regards John

    Hi John
    Yes thanks had an amazing time as usual. I don’t recall seeing any signs but that’s not unusual in Thailand!
    The temps were up around 30c in Phuket didn’t get the chance to travel up north to Khon Kaen as I had to go to Ao Nang but I will revisit Khon Kaen around the same time next year if your there? would love to come and see your set up.

    Off to Khao Lak & Khao Sok on holiday shortly.... really looking forward to it.

    Will be my (our) first trip to Thailand. Not looking forward to the flight so much but some things you gotta do for the end result.

    When I first came I was depressed for 3 months after I came home , I just wanted to go back , when you say ( our ) does that mean you are going with your wife ? Because a lot of women don’t like the Thai girls swarming all over the men , as for the flight better to get a night flight leaving about 8 pm because after they serve the meal it’s about 11 pm and easy to sleep , if you get the morning flight you have just got up and then difficult to sleep . Failing that get some sleeping tabs from your doctor . Have a good trip

    Yes going with my wife - she is a grown up girl sure it will be fine. Plus she knows that being harassed will probably annoy me more than her....lol.
    Looking forward to seeing the sights, spending time with the elephants and some relax time on the beach.
    Going to be drastically different as our last few trips have all been to the USA.

    We are on the morning flight but doing it in two hops - LHR to Doha and then into Phuket. Pretty much prepared to write off the first day. Was the same when went to Japan landed into narita at about 9am after no sleep on the flight - just stayed awake till bedtime. I work rotating shifts so live my whole life jet lagged.
