At Phuket the rally split into 2 smaller groups. The smaller, more intimate feel was a great tonic after Phuket. The journey was long and Thailand offers only one major road up the isthmus. However there was no shortage of drama for the cars. The cylinder head gasket on Yves Marie¢s Bentley blew and the mechanic and doctor were working late into the night to make the car roadworthy for the next leg onto the river Kwai.
The Tusita resort lies on remote bit of coastline surrounded by almost empty countryside.
The second group were greeted by an almighty rainstorm which whipped up the sea to create a wonderfully wild beach where a few brave souls ventured out.
