It is likely that many businesses will close for the whole week, and that Friday 8th, Saturday 9th and Sunday 10th will see the main exodus from Bangkok.

You must have been talking to Ray, Nick!

...I have no way of pre booking a tkt. Someone has said I'll never get a train on the day just turnin up. (on morning of Monday 11th April)...I did ask the owner of the place I stay at to send me a ticket by post,which he said he did...Ive been waitin 2 weeks now since he said he posted it, is that too long for a letter to arrive??He is very trustworthy, but I dont know about the Thai postal system?

....seems a taxi is my only real , (but expensive) option??

That is too long, letters get back to England in a shorter time.

I'd go NCA VIP bus, if I was u

Who is to say that the beloved NCA {that everyone slobbers over} won't be booked solid as well on those days...?? Take a bladdy taxi - quick and a decent value.
