Good to know boys are still on the market so to speak. As for better days, it goes without saying , without bar to facilitate meetings with clients it must be much harder to get some business.
Not everybody is keen on hooking with guys on the street. Not sure about other apps but I combed grindr few times and saw only one advertising there. 
As for opening at end of next month , question is : which is "next month" in that story. I wouldn't bank on it but will be happy to see I was wrong.
that's very commendable and they deserve it.

Bangkok got bit more expensive  but mostly in more "upscale" bars some boys may ask for inflated tip , say 2000 where 1500 was norm or 2500  up to 3000 instead of 2000.
Tips in massages are rather the same . Soi6, Silom and Suriwong are your friends and Saphan Kwai /Suthisan area where min tip oscillate between 800 and 1000 .
As for "sexy twinks " what that really means ? The same guy may cause sudden erection in one and screaming run away in another one.
Thailand and all SE Asian are not areas with shortage of sexy twinks

I know

which board is that ? i never seem to come across one

That  enormous understatement, like saying Antarctic is quite snowy continent

If you like ruins go to Sukhotai and/ or Kamphaeng Phet. I was there for 3 days in January and missed it before even my plane took off from local airport.
easy to get with two daily flights from Swampy.
Take boy with you so your bed stay warm

while wholeheartedly I agree with Thailand top position, rest is bit questionable -  relatively low place of India or Italy with relation to Greece, absence of Mexico , USA , Spain , France , Turkey and UK and prominent position of Emirates makes me wonder. 
Truth is , always  those types of rankings produce results questionable results. Me and my travelling friends often recall similar ranking from one of luxury travel magazines in early  90 ties when Palm Springs California came on top of most desired cities to visit leaving in the dust behind Paris, Rome , Rio, Tokyo, NY and all other worthies including   St.Olaf,  MN

I do notice some twinks at Soda Massage in Jomtien Complex, so worth a try.
In Sunee Plaza there is Winner Boy Bar which usually has 10 boys on stage and primarily twinks.
There is a recent post on this forum with photos of Winner Bar.
In Boyztown there is Toy Boys and Classic Boys both of which have some twinks in their repertoire.

I'm the youngest in my family, so I learned to be quiet early in life...... One time while getting a foot massage at Tarntawan massage, where I think Green Massage is now, the guy covered me loosely with a blanket because instead of changing into their massage pants, I just stayed in boxers. He kept "accidently" touching my dick underneath, I told him  I liked that.....the shop had other people getting foot massages and no one noticed that he had jerked me off under the blanket and used a spare towel to clean up.....great stealth technique he had, and yes, no moaning from me...

Very true, typing "no" takes half a second.

Art enthusiasts in Bangkok rejoice! One of Thailand’s prominent collectors, Sermkhun Kunawong, is set to open the doors to his private collection on May 4, transforming it into a stunning new museum experience.
The Kunawong Museum House is not your typical museum.
Stepping inside the 5,000-square-meter space in Lat Phrao is like entering a living testament to Thai art of various fields and eras. More than 1,000 pieces – paintings, prints, sculptures, furniture, photographs, headpieces, Khon masks, and decorative arts – by Thai masters as well as rising and popular names weave a visual tapestry, narrating the artistic evolution of Thailand from the past to the present.
The display is unique and lively. Each room in the building has its unique character and is decorated with valuable artworks of various kinds.
Antique furniture is everywhere and, pleasingly, the artworks are mostly at eye-level, inviting exploration in an open and accessible environment. They are also unconfined by glass or (visible) security measures.
Those into Thai culture will not be disappointed as the display includes enamel from the Ayutthaya and Rattanakosin periods, Buddha statues, Buddha cabinets, Chadanangs, flame tiaras, and Buddhist scripture boxes from the reign of King Rama IV, displayed on exquisite Thai stands from the reigns of King Rama IV and V.
Puppet cabinets showcase various works. All these works are treasures that should be kept for posterity to admire and be proud of in our civilization.

If you go:
Baan Kunawong Museum is located on Soi Lat Phrao 54. It’s open for viewing every Saturday-Sunday from 9.30am to 6.00pm
Entry is 450 baht, and visitors must be 13 years of age or older. Bookings can be made at https://www.zipeventapp.com/

Unless changes are recent, it is wrong map: "Beach road and 2nd road loop" (red) is included to "From Jomtien and Pattaya" route (blue) and to "Naklua route" (purple).

Nothing more normal than sex, regardless of venue. 😄

I can confirm @Mapraou info. I met with the Tawan guys last night at the 7-Eleven near the former Tawan where the guys hangout as previously reported by @roughjock. Most of them looked like they've seen better days. The cheeky former tout/doorman from Tawan "suggested" that I joined them for drink (which means that I need to go buy a drink from 7-Eleven and some drinks for the guys too) and I happily obliged 🤣.
Some info I got from them:
1. The guys hanging out there are available for "offs". I saw a few of them trying to catch the attention of the ladies passing by 🤣. That former doorman was also heavily pushing for me to off one of the guys there and then 😅. The down side is that, since we were in the street and with their full clothes on, you can't really tell if they've been maintaining their bodies or which one appeals to you the most.
2. The bar is said to be open again towards the later part next month but as with all news in Thailand, take it with a pinch (or in this case, a spoonful) of salt.
Looking to off one or two of them in the following nights, hopefully for me to have a good time and to show support for the guys from one of my favourite bars. 🙂

Some update for what it’s worth….one Tawan guy I’ve known for over 10 yrs told me yesterday he still goes to Soi Tawan and ‘waits for clients’ between working as Grab driver.  Another is moving out of bkk to become an air conditioning technician but said ‘ตวันมีข่าวว่าจะเปิดสิ้นเดือนหน้า’which I think means ‘Some Tawan news: they plan to open at the end of next month’.
Maybe…..maybe not. Hard to read between the lines when I’m not in Thailand.
Anyone else spoken to any of the boys?

Exactly. And some of those secrets are hidden in plain sight.
Many thanks for your report.🙏
