KOH TAO PUB CRAWL
ASA GETS A LAPDANCE
Glad to be back as we didn’t get a chance to visit all the viewpoints. Myself and Mike checked into the central backpackers and met a fella from Manchester called Carlos who I would end up travelling the west islands with. Took a walk and chilled before more carnage later.
ASA COULDN’T KEEP HER LITTLE HANDS OF THE LADYBOYS!
In the queue for the pub crawl (4 times I’ve done it) and some fella behind me asks where I’m from because he hears the norn Irish accent, chatted away for a bit but more to come on that.

The Lapdance
The pub crawl was some laugh, went to a pool party where you get a free shot if you jump in, everyone was loving it then it was off to the ladyboy show again where Asa decided to grope the ladyboys boobs but they didn’t seem to mind. Then because of it she was dragged up to the stage and was given her own little strip show by the host. I think she regretted it at first but was soon in her element, these swedes are not so innocent! Then it was back to the bar fishbowl at Bans.
Ever seen the look of utter regret?
Sitting in the bar I look across and I swear I recognise this lad who comes over and says the same thing. My curiosity sky rockets when I realise he’s from Northern Ireland and works 10 minutes from me! Couldn’t figure it out for the life of me who the hell he is, but again it’s a small world.
SMALL WORLD
I was gone by this stage but remember bumping into the same fella from the queue for the pub crawl and having a few shots of the infamous sake. It wasn’t until I was into my 10th sake bomb that his name rang a bell, Rab Young. I had a mate message me and said, “long shot but keep an eye out for a fella called rab young.”. I told mike and he said Rab was in our taxi home from the jungle party wearing a Northern Ireland top singing football songs with us but I was too far gone by then to even think. Small world again. Got drunk, real bad. I think it’s because the beer out here isn’t regulated, that’s my excuse anyway.
Small world, Rab Young
FINAL THOUGHTS
Took a day’s recovery and the boys spent most of it telling me the state I was in, don’t they know me well enough yet?! Since then, Carlos has never let me drink Chang without the supervision of an adult but the tide was soon to turn when he woke up with half his tooth in his pocket 😂 which got me thinking, this must be a great story. Turns out a girl gave him a hug and her shoulder took it out! At least that took the spotlight off me crawling around the bar all night. Was a great day, done all the viewpoints but too cloudy if anything – read about it here
The tooth girl
Side note
If you are ever in Koh Tao then you must try the famous sweet pancakes from this young man, Siad! They are dirt cheap and a quick & easy to eat after a long night our at the bars. Toppings include everything you could imagine from strawberries to banana and of course Nutella! Catch him right outside Bans Diving bar.
NEXT UP
Having to decide my next few weeks, plan is to go to the islands on the west and visit Koh Phi Phi and maybe Koh Lanta. Carlos is up for joining me but he needs his tooth fixed so we are going to Phuket to find a dentist and then go from there. Click here to read it and my first ping pong experience.
