Your man in Phuket

Your man in Phuket

May I present you; Jamie Monk, fellow weather blogger (of those there are only two as far as I know in Thailand, Jamie and me), fellow diver (he owns and runs Sunrise divers in Karon) and he's been the same amount of years in Thailand as me, he may have arrived a few days before me, we are both married to a Thai woman (a different one!) and we both have two kids in the same age bracket.

Right now I am in Phuket for a PADI IE and it turns out that the location is more or less directly next to Jamie's dive center. Having missed each other during a few earlier visits to Phuket, this was the right time to visit him and have a nice cold one.
It was good meeting him at last, eye to eye and the picture above sees us happily shaking hands on the unexpected occasion.

If you're interested in finding out about the Real Phuket and not just about Patong and it's nightlife, Jamie's Phuket blog is the right place to find this sort of information. For all news about Phuket's weather all year round, Jamie's Phuket weather blog is the 'sister' blog to my Samui info and weather blog.

Looking forward to a few more cold ones together, Jamie!

The idea that there is somebody else like me out there would scare me :-)

Yes Paul, Camille is my brother from another mother... I also very much like your very honest blog, and it makes me feel guilty every time I open the fridge for a beer. I have a link to your blog on my Phuket blog. It's quite inspirational and I thank you for your honesty.
