Well basically mate on the trips i've been on there have been big plans to see phuket's beatiful sites, do some diving , fishing(you know, normal holiday activities). Instead each trip has been two to three weeks of chronic alcoholism and meeting many new friends. A typical day starts at 3pm, have something to eat chill out for a couple of hours and then hit bangla (soi eric and Gonzo are my favourites).Hours later you find yourself at safari or jim jeeung with friends. Its a viscious cycle of punishment to one's body.
As for where i stay, you only really need a big bed don't you, C&N resort and spa is around 1300 in the high season, good quality(proper shower, not the asian version of one) and friendly staff.If iam feeling fancy for a few nights i will stay at prince edouard apartments(you have to think sometimes, whats an extra $50 a night for accommodation for something awesome if you are wasting cash ringing those bells at night).on the cheap end of the spectrum there is wangnamyen..............
