    I don't know what the going rate in Thailand is but everything is in relation to its market rate. When I am in Barcelona I never pay over 100e simply because I can always get what I want under 100 

    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

    You should check Gallup report published today: disapproval of Russia and Russians lowered 4% in world in 2023 despite all Western propaganda, while disapproval of US and Americans raised on 3%.

    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%.

    Jupiter bar

    We paid extra 500 baht to bar and we took him out, had dinner together and then said our goodbyes ( 3000 baht tip was given for his short-term acompany that night, which was stated to be the standard tip for Jupiter).
    ...............

    However, there is constant chaos in the bar. There are waiters and captains running around. We sat for about 3 hours and when I went out I felt tired from the music and the crowd.

    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.

    Moonlight bar: I think they have a working system that pays more attention to models.

    Mr. Y, one of Mr. Vinapu's favorites, was there with all his charm. 😉

    Mr.Mean was watching a show with a group of Asian girls.

    Banana bar
    Customer turnover is too high, people walk through the door or look at them with confused eyes and give up on entering.

     

    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.

    Lucy gone….there is a God. 

    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
