I used to have 3-5 mates come from the uk.now it's down to 1 who come for two months at Xmas and stays with me for a month.this year it's 12 days and he's booked up for Vietnam.the high rolling days are over for Thailand.theyve cocked it up again like they do with most things and it's not a cheap destination anymore.one thing I don't understand is why some countries have to pay for visas and some don't.

I was chatting to a fella this AM, who was fresh in from the UK.

He stated that his plane was only about 60% full, and most on board, were onlyon a stop-over in BKk before onward to Cambodia or Vietnam.

This kind of confirms the rise in Cambodian Tourism this year.
