The most expensive flight in Thailand as Bangkok Air own the airport, I have been a couple of times, didn’t do much for me apart from Thai the guy driving the jeep on the trip nearly overturning it going through the jungle Samui is just another island with beaches like the majority of others in Thailand only it costs a lot more to get there, I have flown from Bangkok to Vietnam and Cambodia cheaper than flying to Samui and had some great holidays.

The nearest I ever got to problems with ladyboys was when 2 tried to accost me in Bangkok in the street, it’s was quite scary as they physically caught hold of me and it wasn’t my body they were after !

I had problems with Ladybirds on my Marigolds but a quick spray of Old Mother Frost’s patent Ladybird killer and nerve gas agent soon sorted them out.
It might work on Ladyboys if you up the dose.
Happy to help :dance:
