***Exclusive*** BECKHAMS GET THAI'D UP WITH HOLIDAY HOME

Looks like Los Angeles is losing its attraction for the Beckhams already. Just weeks after settling in Tinseltown from Madrid, the celebrity couple are eyeing another new home - in Thailand. David and Victoria were spotted on the country's third largest island, Koh Samui, earlier this summer, with kids Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz in tow. And reports the family were thinking of setting up a holiday home in the beach paradise now look likely, with confirmation from the local forestry department that an application for planning permission on a plot of land has been received from the football star. The secluded site, complete with private beach, in the small town of Ban Mae Nam reportedly cost the Beckhams 200 million baht ($6.7 million Ł3.35 million). But it's not going to be plain sailing to secure their coastal retreat. Sompon Thongphetkhiang, director of the Surat Thani forestry office, says he has been instructed to check the picturesque hillside plot to ensure it doesn't form part of a protected forest reservation before building on the residence can commence. He says, "We will try to determine if this land can be allocated for private use or not." He insisted the couple's celebrity status wouldn't guarantee preferential treatment with local authorities. It's easy to see why David and Victoria were attracted to the area. As well as the stunning beaches and clear waters, there are plenty of nearby amusements including a bowling complex for the children which boasts a "very disco futuristic feel to it", Go Kart track where David can relieve his need for speed away from his beloved Aston Martin, Bentley Continental and Porsche 911 Turbo, and local cabaret nights where Victoria can practice for her upcoming Spice Girls reunion! Sounds Thai-riffic! And the Beckhams won't be the only celebs in the neighbourhood - a couple of David's former football colleagues are also contemplating kic
