  1. I never been there so have question - with those hordes it's even possible to visit those ruins or only marvel at them from the distance. I can imagine monkey's poo may be substantial obstacle to wander freely too.
  2. impression of my recent ( and a first at the same time ) visit there was that inconvenience was compensated by overcharging.
  3. Jason, don't you understand some people are shy😃
  4. Oh, yes, indeed shy ! I find it hard to believe, lol Great and engaging report !
  5. yes and no since we always deal with two markets , local and domestic If in our country, say an apple , cost 1$ and we go to Lesotho where the same may sell for 10 cents but shrewd seller quotes us 20 cents and we go for it two things happened at once, both true : 1/ we got ripped off, overpaying twice, ouch ! 2/ we got what we wanted for 1/5 of home value. Halleluiah ! is up to us how we go about that , whine or smile
  6. I saw them. My hair can't be more grey !
  7. and then some British visitors are coming to Thailand and are loudly complaining about greedy boys asking 5000 baht for overnight
  8. Was this Gallup Russia or Gallup Belarus ? Catchy statistics but it could mean that disapproval of Russians went down from 70 % to 67.20 %, drop of 4% and disapproval of Americans went up from 5% to 5.15 % , increase of 3%.
  9. I'd say it should be half price
  10. ShamelessMack2 – Gay escapes Thailand and around (travel.blog)
  11. 300 baht fee will end up in general revenue and will not deter too many from coming. But that surge in arrivals was sudden and met country unprepared here and there seems to be real. Few people reported that they may be 2-3 hours wait for next bus to Pattaya from Swampy, It was rarely a case pre-covid.
  12. Find them, yes, but they are perfectly capable of taking care of themselves, there were no shrinking violets there
  13. yes , but so far we have only questions and no answers as to what happened with orphaned Tawan boys
  14. Yes. I must say that Jey Spa is one which responds promptly and accurately, no misunderstandings .
  15. that was expensive dinner but you did right thing, you removed guy from bar thus depriving him chance to get an off so he should be suitably compensated. ............. when come to noise level Jupiter along with Sol and XBoyx Pattaya are three worst bars and also they have tendency to put AC too low so there's taste of arctic in soi 4. Esthetics of admiring handsome boys in big part compensates for those deficiencies. You correctly noticed Jupiter way - boys seem to be disinterested but as soon as you invite them to seat with you all of the sudden that become , so to speak, normal and friendly.
  16. can't say I feel jealous for residents
  17. glad to learn you come to your senses
  18. nothing wrong in compensating him for being source of your obsession. 200 $ for having company of guy we like 7/24 is fair price, even if exceeding market a bit
  19. I think you are spot on when comes to Moonlight' s tilt toward models, how it works for them business wise I have no idea but model stable could use some update as sizable part of them are veterans, keeping their shape but still many faces and bodies lack novelty value. Glad Y is still there and hope part of his charm was covered decently. I was told that Mean returned to school and it's no longer with Moonlight but glad to know he is spectator from time to time. Turnover at Banana is testimony of good job done by both barkers working hard to get people in. Certainly they earn their keep.
  20. some people have strange priorities and forget what money is for
  21. she could be nasty and very pushy so yes , it's kind of relief but I hope she left for some normal reason. Last 2 times I saw her she did not look well and I even took pains to ask one of mamasans if all is good with her. He said yes other than her father died recently but often people who see us daily did not see changes as much as those who meets us every Christmas only. cross fingers , hope she enjoys her retirement, certainly she was something
  22. that's obvious, it easier for thief to empty sole pocket or one of just two than 10 undersigned has at disposal when travels
