Voucher worked ok, but was listed by the bus company as starting from Bus Station Terminal 2 Phuket, not Khao Lak outside McDonalds. This initially caused confusion trying to work out who I was, but it was sorted out in the end, and the problem identified.

Driving in Thailand seems different from home, sometimes i thought the driver drove a wee bit too fast or got really close to the vehicle in front. Still a very competent driver!
