THE LIGHTS ARE BACK ON IN BANGKOK
Thank god your lad was right. Closure of the naughty bars only lasted one night. So I could go out again. First on my list was to check out the new DreamBoy location. Big improvement, because there's no big pole anymore obstructing the view. Temperature good, music loud but for me not too loud. Massive stage, full with about 50 (!) boys. All types. Show at 22h30 was same same as always and everywhere. 
Lots of boys and for sure also some that I liked. But it was still early and wanted to check out other bar also. So to the other side of the street to Hotmale I went. Show there finished already. Only a group of 3 Asian customers with buckets off alcohol drinking with some of the boys. About 15 boys working. I was told 10 boys were already taken earlier that night just after the 22h30 show. Because no customers, no 2nd show tonight. Boys all wearing red long sport trousers on stage. Some even kept their shirt on. 
Invited a cute smiling boy with good body over to have a drink with me. After some talking, touching (feeling his 6pack) and groping decided to take him home for the night. 
By the way, if you're going to stay in Quarter Silom Hotel than you could request a room in "tower 3". Entrance to this building is separate, you or/and your boys will not have to pass reception for greater privacy. 
 
A NICE AFTERNOON DELIGHT
In September I met this goodlooking half Thai / half Dutch guy. 
He told me to contact him again when I was in Thailand the next time. So off course I did. And this time was as good as I remembered from September. His mouth and hole hungry for my dick. Active but submissive. And very friendly also. 
A real afternoon delight he was. Even better: he plans to come to the Netherlands for summer to visit his family over there. So for sure we will be able to meet again than... Lol

FIRST FULL DAY 
After arriving yesterday afternoon and being jet-legged, today was going to be my first full day in Thailand. 
Noticed the new Sikom Edge shopping center. Which is nothing special. Just again another mall, like there are so many in Bangkok. Good thing is the restaurants in Edge are open 24hr a day. Maybe a good alternative for foodland for a change for a after midnight snack? The new pavement on Silom Road is finished. They even made room for new trees and other greenery. Good to see more and more green in the city. 

Also Patpong Night Market is back. With the first part on the Silom Road side begin a food market and the old skool market as we know it from before covid is in the second part of the street. 
In the evening I was first at Hua Lamphong station. This week they light up the facade of the station and some areas inside as part of an art project. And they have two old trains on showcase. 

 
CLOSED BARS IN BANGKOK
It was still early when I walked from Silom subway station back to my hotel via Soi Patpong 2. It was around 9pm and I noticed DreamBoy and Freshboys (still) being closed and all dark. Strange. Normally by now they would be opening up, even though it would not be busy at all at this time. 
Back in my hotelroom I asked a massage guy I met last time in September if he maybe knows what's happening. He told me that a friend of him has heard police was checking all bars and massage parlours for foreign boys working there. 
Later in evening I decided to go out and check if the bars were open again. But they were still all closed. Tawan Bar, DreamBoy, Hotmale, Freshboys and even Jupiter... All closed and all had their neon-lights out. Hopefully tomorrow they will be open again, as I really would love to visit these bars again offcourse... Anybody has any past experience  when the bars opened again after police raids? 
Edit: By the way, the "normal" gaybars were open tonight. Only the "naughty bars" closed. 

Stayed there when it had a good opening offer and liked the hotel. But have to say I have a weak spot for new modern hotels.
I loved that shower window a lot when I took home a nice muscleboy and let him do a private erotic shower show for me... Getting in the shower in his underwear, getting wet, stripping... 😈🚿

Some really good looking boys at Jey Spa... I personally like some muscles on a boy...

Because I am switching from a temporary employment contract via an agency to a permanent contract directly with my employer, I had some holiday time left to use before April 1st. What better way than to spent that holiday time in LOS? Only a short stay this time. Two weeks in Bangkok and Pattaya. 
 
ARRIVING
After a few days in Dubai with an old colleague and friend I was flying to Bangkok and arrived yesterday. I had read some comments on this forum (and messages on English language Thai news sites) about enormous waiting times for immigration at BKK Airport and long queues for a taxi into town. But thank god that was not the case yesterday. Immigration was cleared in about 10 minutes and outside I could walk straight to an available taxi. No lines at all. 
 
HOTEL
Hotel I booked this time is the Quarter Silom Hotel, in the same soi as Tawan bar. They had good offer and the pictures looked good. Indeed the hotel is very modern. Rooms are big enough for my liking. The design is a bit dark. I like the led lighting that you can control the colour from.

I arrived at 2pm but unfortunately my room was not ready yet. I had to wait about 1hr for my room to come available. Downsides: my room has a connection door to neighbouring room. Because of that some noise from that other room is coming into my room. But more concerned about what the neighbours might hear coming from my room when I have a visitor... And like more and more hotels you need keycard to use the elevator. No chance in letting a Grindr boy come directly to your room. Need to pick him up from downstairs, with staff probabaly noticing. But also probabaly not caring. 

 
FIRST NIGHT 
I was tired from missing out on a night sleep because of flight times. After a quick nap I decided I wanted to have a look at the Patpong boybars. Curious about the new Dreamboys location. Still tired, while walking around the area and checking out the re-opened Patpong night Market, some messages came in on Grindr. A guy with nice muscled body was advertising himself as "love to suck deepthroat". In the chat he told me he doesn't only like it, but he's also very good at sucking cock. So I decided to try if this was true instead of visiting the bars. Turned out a good choice. Was long time ago I was given head so skilled. A good first night in Thailand. The bars can wait for tomorrow... That was what I was thinking. Turned out that was not possible. But more about it in my next post. 

Nice body of my first night guy

I hope emiel1981 has fun there and will start reporting again very soon, waiting for day two , three etc

People should feel free to chime in if they wish with their own reports. I know people enjoy hearing what's going on now.
Fresh Boys
After being here a week I finally went to a gogo tonight. Fresh Boys was on the agenda. I remembered all of the reasons why I usually avoid gogos these days. Pushy mamasan who wouldn't stop touching me. When I arrived I was the only customer so the pressure of all those eyes on me was intense. Too many people asking for tips for doing absolutely nothing.
For a Monday night there ended up being a decent-sized crowd for the show (which began at 10:15). I'd guess there were around 20 or so people there at the peak and somewhere in the neighborhood of 25 boys of various shapes and sizes. I'd reckon about a half dozen would have been possible offs for me. Drinks 400, off fee 500.
The show was not especially exciting. Several drag queen lip syncs, a dance number by 4 boys, the usual things like the candle wax show, big cock show, the boys banging on the pole with their poles. Mr Boy #31 was everywhere in the show - handsome, tall, lean, defined guy with a big cock.
I didn't really intend to off anyone until a spur of the moment decision to take Mr. Lam #8 out of the bar. Skinny, young Vietnamese boy with a surprisingly big cock. I really had my eye on #5 who I think was the best looking boy in the bar face-wise. I always have had a thing for blonds and Asian boys with blond dyed hair do it for me. But he was otherwise occupied by someone else as the show neared its end. Maybe another time. 

Anyone ever go to Jey Spa?

Anybody has any past experience  when the bars opened again after police raids? 
Edit: By the way, the "normal" gaybars were open tonight. Only the "naughty bars" closed. 

Because I am switching from a temporary employment contract via an agency to a permanent contract directly with my employer, I had some holiday time left to use before April 1st. What better way than to spent that holiday time in LOS? Only a short stay this time. Two weeks in Bangkok and Pattaya. 
 
ARRIVING
After a few days in Dubai with an old colleague and friend I was flying to Bangkok and arrived yesterday. I had read some comments on this forum (and messages on English language Thai news sites) about enormous waiting times for immigration at BKK Airport and long queues for a taxi into town. But thank god that was not the case yesterday. Immigration was cleared in about 10 minutes and outside I could walk straight to an available taxi. No lines at all. 
 
HOTEL
Hotel I booked this time is the Quarter Silom Hotel, in the same soi as Tawan bar. They had good offer and the pictures looked good. Indeed the hotel is very modern. Rooms are big enough for my liking. The design is a bit dark. I like the led lighting that you can control the colour from.

I arrived at 2pm but unfortunately my room was not ready yet. I had to wait about 1hr for my room to come available. Downsides: my room has a connection door to neighbouring room. Because of that some noise from that other room is coming into my room. But more concerned about what the neighbours might hear coming from my room when I have a visitor... And like more and more hotels you need keycard to use the elevator. No chance in letting a Grindr boy come directly to your room. Need to pick him up from downstairs, with staff probabaly noticing. But also probabaly not caring. 

 
FIRST NIGHT 
I was tired from missing out on a night sleep because of flight times. After a quick nap I decided I wanted to have a look at the Patpong boybars. Curious about the new Dreamboys location. Still tired, while walking around the area and checking out the re-opened Patpong night Market, some messages came in on Grindr. A guy with nice muscled body was advertising himself as "love to suck deepthroat". In the chat he told me he doesn't only like it, but he's also very good at sucking cock. So I decided to try if this was true instead of visiting the bars. Turned out a good choice. Was long time ago I was given head so skilled. A good first night in Thailand. The bars can wait for tomorrow... That was what I was thinking. Turned out that was not possible. But more about it in my next post.

It was still early when I walked from Silom subway station back to my hotel via Soi Patpong 2. It was around 9pm and I noticed DreamBoy and Freshboys (still) being closed and all dark. Strange. Normally by now they would be opening up, even though it would not be busy at all at this time. 
Back in my hotelroom I asked a massage guy I met last time in September if he maybe knows what's happening. He told me that a friend of him has heard police was checking all bars and massage parlours for foreign boys working there. 
Later in evening I decided to go out and check if the bars were open again. But they were still all closed. Tawan Bar, DreamBoy, Hotmale, Freshboys and even Jupiter... All closed and all had their neon-lights out. Hopefully tomorrow they will be open again, as I really would love to visit these bars again offcourse... Anybody has any past experience  when the bars opened again after police raids? 
Edit: By the way, the "normal" gaybars were open tonight. Only the "naughty bars" closed. 

Because I am switching from a temporary employment contract via an agency to a permanent contract directly with my employer, I had some holiday time left to use before April 1st. What better way than to spent that holiday time in LOS? Only a short stay this time. Two weeks in Bangkok and Pattaya. 
 
ARRIVING
After a few days in Dubai with an old colleague and friend I was flying to Bangkok and arrived yesterday. I had read some comments on this forum (and messages on English language Thai news sites) about enormous waiting times for immigration at BKK Airport and long queues for a taxi into town. But thank god that was not the case yesterday. Immigration was cleared in about 10 minutes and outside I could walk straight to an available taxi. No lines at all. 
 
HOTEL
Hotel I booked this time is the Quarter Silom Hotel, in the same soi as Tawan bar. They had good offer and the pictures looked good. Indeed the hotel is very modern. Rooms are big enough for my liking. The design is a bit dark. I like the led lighting that you can control the colour from.

I arrived at 2pm but unfortunately my room was not ready yet. I had to wait about 1hr for my room to come available. Downsides: my room has a connection door to neighbouring room. Because of that some noise from that other room is coming into my room. But more concerned about what the neighbours might hear coming from my room when I have a visitor... And like more and more hotels you need keycard to use the elevator. No chance in letting a Grindr boy come directly to your room. Need to pick him up from downstairs, with staff probabaly noticing. But also probabaly not caring. 

 
FIRST NIGHT 
I was tired from missing out on a night sleep because of flight times. After a quick nap I decided I wanted to have a look at the Patpong boybars. Curious about the new Dreamboys location. Still tired, while walking around the area and checking out the re-opened Patpong night Market, some messages came in on Grindr. A guy with nice muscled body was advertising himself as "love to suck deepthroat". In the chat he told me he doesn't only like it, but he's also very good at sucking cock. So I decided to try if this was true instead of visiting the bars. Turned out a good choice. Was long time ago I was given head so skilled. A good first night in Thailand. The bars can wait for tomorrow... That was what I was thinking. Turned out that was not possible. But more about it in my next post. 

Nice body of my first night guy 

FIRST FULL DAY 
After arriving yesterday afternoon and being jet-legged, today was going to be my first full day in Thailand. 
Noticed the new Sikom Edge shopping center. Which is nothing special. Just again another mall, like there are so many in Bangkok. Good thing is the restaurants in Edge are open 24hr a day. Maybe a good alternative for foodland for a change for a after midnight snack? The new pavement on Silom Road is finished. They even made room for new trees and other greenery. Good to see more and more green in the city. 

Also Patpong Night Market is back. With the first part on the Silom Road side begin a food market and the old skool market as we know it from before covid is in the second part of the street. 
In the evening I was first at Hua Lamphong station. This week they light up the facade of the station and some areas inside as part of an art project. And they have two old trains on showcase.
