‘Ko Samui!’ said my teerak,
‘I liked it there, please take me back!’
So I agreed, I didn’t know
It was a tropical Khao
San Road, favoured by hippy back-
-packers and students on a gap
Year. I nearly couldn’t hack
It, because I didn’t know
Ko Samui
Was so far off the beaten track –
Unlike Pattaya. Their looks were black,
And all because she is below
My age by forty years or so –
I tell you, I will never crack
Ko Samui!
