Dear Tony,
Thank you very much for organising and guiding my birding trips to Doi Inthanon and Khao Nor Churchi and for arranging the mangrove boating trip with Mr Dai; I enjoyed them greatly and I saw far more birds than if I had travelled alone. I have birded
many parts of the world using local guides on many occasions and I cannot tell you how satisfying it is to find somebody like you who is both friendly and knowledgeable and who also arrives as planned and provides the services that have been agreed. I know how much effort you and your brother-in-law went to so that I would have a successful holiday. Not many people would have travelled the great distances you
did to meet me. I appreciated the fact that you engaged local help at Doi Inthanon
to maximise my chances of seeing difficult birds and it was good of you to provide me with copies of books that I would have otherwise found difficult to obtain in either Thailand or England. I was delighted to have seen 194 bird species of which 95 were new to me but just as importantly I was pleased to have spent such a pleasurable
time in your company and in the company of the other Thai people you introduced
me to. I would have no hesitation at all in recommending your services to others and indeed I hope one day to return to Thailand to go birding with you to places we had
no time to visit on this occasion.
Thanks once again and keep in touch
Nick
