A timely warning Jax
My son was in Phuket about 18 months on a business conference... however, it was the wet season and the seas were very rough. My lad being proficient in the water and a bit of a dare devil went out with his two colleagues. He got thrown up into the air and the jet-ski landed on him hitting his leg. One of the others guys almost drowned and the 3rd cracked a couple of ribs. The jet-ski hirers came running to 'help' or so they thought... all they were interested in was the jet-ski and claimed that water was in the 'carby' and the other guy had to pay an enormous 'ransom' before they allowed him to leave the beach.
My son appeared ok at the time, but his leg got worse and during the night he rang reception to take him to the hospital... the driver however, had a better idea and wanted to take him to a brothel first to get laid... he simply told them "Mate... just take me to the hospital"
Cheers Geri
