A friend who was in Chiang Mai recently reported that Adam's Apple Bar was closed down by police action. Can anyone confirm this or add more information?

I was thinking fondly about Cafe Royale and was wondering if there has been any changes since Ian has passed on. It has only been a short time I know but thought I'd ask. Also, maybe I have missed some postings, but what is the status of the venture that was renovating part of Sunee. I think it was in the area of the Spotlight. Do I have this all wrong?

This is an excerpt from an article about the ways foreigners in Thailand (Pattaya in particular) prey on visitors: 1. Iranian gangs normally will concentrate on larceny and theft in various hotels. They normally concentrate on credit cards using them for the purchase of items or sometimes forging a credit card and passports for travel in-out of different countries. Some sell the stolen items to other criminals; this gang tends to be violent and will not hesitate to use weapons on their victims. Iran

On the other forum, I have read with interest about the opening of Topman Bar. My how I wish I was there to see it in person. What I find most amazing is that LMTU posts a very long post that is not harsh or mean in his mind. He often tries to tutor people in the way he thinks things should be run. The more that is made out of the posts and the more he relishes in it. He doesn

The following appears in the BANGKOK POST: _________ BoT: Get Used to a Stronger Baht PARISTA YUTHAMANOP Thai businesses need to prepare for a stronger baht that will reflect a growing shift in foreign investment away from dollar-denominated assets, according to the Bank of Thailand. M.R. Pridiyathorn Devakula, the central bank governor, also said that the economy of Thailand would experience greater volatility in foreign capital flows until the end of 2007. Global investors, he said, were growing increasingly wary about the dollar because of the huge US trade and current account deficits. ''The United States current account deficit is now $2 bi…

It's at 88 Sukumvit 24, Klongteoy, Bangkok. I see a gay tour company says it's where their customers will stay in Bangkok. http://www.davisbangkok.net/index.html

Warning! The following are a few 'facts', and some "Best Guesses" of mine. I have not been involved with Sawatdee Forum in any way other than a regular poster for over a year now ( ironically on hiatus as of only a few days ago!! ), but the Board is now down completely and that message you get when clicking on the address is as ominous a sign as I've seen before. This account is temporarily unavailable. Please contact your hosting provider Note that it does say "Temporarily" ... but I'm not holding my breath. FACTS: ~ The owner of Sawatdee ( ElephantSpike / Robert) has been completely missing for at least a month, perhaps a bit longer. …

Actually, I should call it a "rediscovery" rather than a "find." I've eaten at Cherry several times. RichLB first told me about Cherry a year or so ago. It was a nice little inexpensive restaurant that served good steaks at very inexpensive prices. They had a small, barely acceptable salad bar along with it. This evening Geezer invited me to go out to dinner. He said he just found a great restaurant at very reasonable prices. When I arrived to pick him up, he said to go to Third Road and start looking for a parking spot when we get close to the X-yte disco. I said, "You're talking about Cherry, aen't you?" I asked if he was referring to the same place I…

The following appears in THE NATION: __________ ANTIRETROVIRAL Tenofovir Drug to be Sold Cheaply Published on August 26, 2006 Experts Say Drug has been Tested on Thais with Satisfactory Result The antiretroviral drug Tenofovir used to treat HIV/AIDS patients will be available on the Thai market for around US$1 (Bt38) per tablet, 90 per cent cheaper than on the US or European markets.

Burmese Immigration have raised the visa fee for entering Tachileik from USD5.00 (or 250Bt) to USD10.00 (or 500Bt) as of 1 August 2006. The Mae Sai (Chiang Rai)-Tachileik border is popular with visa runners and weekend Thai shoppers.

We have seen the show at Wild West Boys in Boystown several times recently..It is lots of fun and very hot by Pattaya show standards..Each nite was somewhat different and two out of the three times the show was really fun to watch and the boys have really gotten good at erotic dancing.. I am partial to two of the boys and when both are in the show, I am in la la land..and if you love bubble butts & hot bodies, check out the 10:30 or midnite show.. Why, you would almost think I get free drinks or run a tab at Wild West Boys for the positive plugs I put in..Maybe, I even have an interest in the ownership, but , no , I will leave that to others..

I just would like to thank Spike ,Im sure you are reading this comrade,thankyou for the information and the entertainment of Sawatdee forum.Its time to move on for both of us. As most of you know,my handle Boygeorge used on the Sawatdee Forum has been "taken/stolen" by another on this forum,the good news is another aussie has stolen it. Its a real pity that in the last days of the Sawatdee Forum we saw a poster make false allegations based on hearsay against another.w x 40 Its a real pity that certain males bring the Gay community into disrepute and tarnish you with the same brush. Once a…

Note from GB: I am posting two stories about this that appear in THE NATION. I have also posted an article that suggests this will weaken the Thai baht. At this moment the exchange rate since yesterday has not changed. The rate at the time of this posting is 37.51 baht to the US dollar. THE NATION: _____ 'Bomb Plot to Kill Thaksin Foiled', Questions Linger Published on August 25, 2006 Explosives 'ready to be detonated near motorcade'; Army officer held for questioning A car loaded with explosives that was intercepted by police early yesterday morning was possibly to be used in an attempt to kill caretaker Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra whi…

I have emigrated from the Sawatdee forum on the recommendation of an internet buddy. Whilt 80% of the content of Sawatdee was dross, it was useful in that it contained bits of interesting information about my spiritual home (Pattaya). Unfortunately of late it has been unmoderated and taken over by unintelligent morons (BOYGEORGE and BOYGENYUS to name but two), and by educated know-alls of the likes of HOMINTERN. It is therefore something of a blessing that it appears to be about to close. Although it did contain some small content of use it was mainly a forum for the Sunee Plaza mafia to advertise their businesses and for people to flame and verbally abuse other members. …

It seems that most of the users using a Hotmail and Msn e-mail address aren't receiving Email at all. I have been in touch with the Hotmail customer support and we are currently working on the problem. It is just a junk filter problem. Sorry for the inconvenience. If you haven't received your e-mail confirmation for your membership, just email us to let us know. Thanks for your patience. PS : It would help if you add our email address

Well is this what LMYU was shouting about a few days ago. another new board, which is the new home for earwig I loved this modest comment from earwig "Lets hope you can jump on these insidious people who only sit by there computer waiting to write something negative about people who post genuine articles Have fun I will if you let me, and that means you will if you join me." www.baht-stop.com

I am very angree at the lies that are being spread by letmetellu about my Bars Topman and Butterfly. I wish to make clear to everyone the following as letmetellu seems to have some grudge against me. The motor car accident from which I am lucky to be alive today. I did not close my Butterfly 'Bar down'. It is open today and every night. Yes it will be for sale to the right buyer when the time comes. It's well established in the town and is one of the most popular. Letmetellu does not know about this as he does not go to the Bar. The tale about (NAME TAKEN OUT BY MODERATORS) speaking to some ex lady boy from Topman Bar seems to be in his dreams. Knowone has been caug…

Note from GB: This means the exchange rate for Thai baht to the US dollar will be a little better for "farang" than previously predicted. The Bank of Thailand (BOT) apparently intends to try to keep the baht at aproximately 38 baht to the US dollar. At the moment I am posting this, the exchange rate is 37.51 baht to the US dollar BANGKOK, Aug 24 (TNA) Bank of Thailand (BOT)'s Governor M.R. Pridiyathorn Devakula on Wednesday revealed that the country's international reserve had increased as a result of the central bank's intervention in the baht movement, not a current account surplus. He said the international reserve as of August 11 stood at US$59.4…

I just loved this one. Here it is, exactly as it appears in the PATTAYA CITY NEWS: _________________ Large Erections Planned for Pattaya At a meeting held at Pattaya City Hall on Wednesday, the very busy Mayor Niran announced the allocation of 46 million baht of the annual budget to the construction of two large archways on the borders of the city. The giant erections will be similar to but much more grandiose than the archway currently spanning Walking Street and will be festooned with lights so that even in darkness people driving along Sukhumvit highway will know they are entering the outskirts of Pattaya. __________________ I don't know about…

I do hope that this post does not just add more fuel to the fire that seems to burn in the name of LMTU, but for those who do not visit the other side I though it was important to show the thoughts of two recent posters from there to try and give this one sided onslaught LMTU attracts a bit of balance. The only reason I can see why he get's so much negative press is because those few that continually try to tarnish his name are in envy of him, wish they could be him and have the success that he has had living in Thailand. It has got that bad and the insult/rumour bank is that low that all they can do now is criticise him for his spelling, grammar and financial w…
