I know this guy Chin too. Always very off hand and just ignores most of the customers.
One night I was with some of his friends from his Sunnee bar (Diamond) and we bumped into him in Marine Disco in Walking Street. I bought him a drink and didn’t even get a thank you. I was just totally blanked. Really strange.
A few years Previously I was thinking of an off with him but just couldn't break the ice. That, and his awful smoking habit, finished matters. Just as well! amazing how first impressions are always right.
A lot of the problems discussed above I put down to the Thai trait which I call “Cling on”. Some guys just don’t get the message that you do not want to off them again and just won’t leave it alone. I could name a few ”Cling Ons” in Sunee!

The tourists were expected to generate around 25 million baht for the country, said the doctor.
More than 2,270 foreigners from China, Myanmar, Japan and Kuwait have reportedly expressed their wish to enter Thailand, and are expected to generate 115 million baht in revenue.
the 735 medical tourists who are going to spend 25,000,000 baht will spend 34000 each.
are they going to the dentist?

So little mask wearing despite all the horrific warnings and the commentator implies the midnight closing is ignored too.
hopefully it won’t be long before all is back to normal...and they let us back.
TiT!

These tourists can visit selected destinations without being subjected to 14-day quarantine measures, but they have to provide health certification, fit-to-fly certificates and buy health insurance before visiting Thailand, while rapid testing will be available upon arrival.
That will be the killer for Western tourists. Imagine the USA and the UK being on any “approved list”.
And who is going to be able obtain the medical certificates? In the UK all doctor surgeries and hospitals are effectively closed to anything but life threatening problems.
As for covid insurance...forget it!

Have you ever thought that the world is far too complex nowadays to be run by humans?
It did ok for billions of years before we arrived to ruin it.

And Silom/Patpong after the crisis?
It’s not Silom, Patpong, Boyztown, Jomtien, or Sunee.
Its Thai Immigration which is going to be the problem. No doubt they will view all Farangs with a great amount of suspicion and invent all sorts of “suitable entry requirements” . Lord knows what they could invent but you can rest assured they will see these restrictions as preventing a recurrence of Covid 19.
Whilst the reopening and restocking of the bars may be a simple matter, getting back into the country again may become an insurmountable problem for some.
And would you be willing to sit in a 400 seater aeroplane for 12 hours so shortly after this epidemic?
Its going to be a very very long haul.

How are expat farangs going to return to their homes in Thailand?

That’s why I said Pattaya!

I sent money by Western Union on Monday and it was picked up in Pattaya no problem.

Still goes on in Sansuk. Often see people climbing up trying to see over the walls. There are even some cubicles with viewing holes, on the second floor near the toilets, but those cubicles are rarely in use.
It might be prohibited by management but TiT...

That article said...” The Guardian has seen a list of 34 diagnostic tests and treatments that in future patients will only be able to get in exceptional circumstances as part of a drive to save money and relieve the pressure on the NHS.”
Point is NHS doctors only get a very basic grounding of the multitude of ailments and diseases during their training. My Cancer consultant was not at all surprised my GP missed my cancer as they only spent a few days with the Cancer specialists in their training. They then had to go on to other departments, and there are many, in order to finish their training course in the time allocated.
So it seems to me that these tests are in fact required if GP are expected to correctly diagnose patients problems.

An example of our wonderful NHS.
Over the last year I had been to see my NHS doctor two or three times about passing blood. Each appointment took over a month to schedule. They were probably about 3 or 4 months apart. Each time he said to come back when the bleeding started again as he suspected piles. Of course with the months delay getting an appointment this was impossible as the bleeding only lasted a day or two.
In the meantime I had my other regular blood tests and got a text message from the doctors to make a “non urgent” appointment. When I phoned and made this appointment,5 weeks hence, I asked what it was for. The reply was a prescription review. I thought no more of it and eventually attended late September.
When I went in the Staff Sister, who I had to see as there was no doctor available, but who can do anything a doctor can do, was busy looking at my records. She said the blood tests indicated Anaemia and said I needed a camera job to see if I had internal bleeding. She said she would fast track me. I asked about the prescription review and was met with a blank stare.
Next day I got a call for an Endoscopy and was immediately told I had Colon cancer and that it was blocking my Colon. So much so that the consultant couldn’t get past it with the camera. CT scans, blood tests, briefings, and a meeting with my team followed immediately. I had another meeting with my consultant the following Friday and he said he would operate the next Wednesday but, if I had any pain at all to come in over the weekend, as I was very close to having my intestines burst because of the blockage. He said he would operate there and then if required.
After the operation I was released from hospital the following week. Total time from the edopscopy to hospital release was 12 days. Thank god it hadn’t spread.
The treatment by anyone higher than Staff sister was good. By hospital doctors and Consultants outstanding. By general nursing staff, cooks, medication dispensers and other lowly paid staff appalling. None were even English.
The food was inedible and friends bought in hot soup and other beverages. My first proper evening meal, the day after the operation,was a banana, a sandwich and a small saucer of crisps....
So, overall was I impressed with my NHS doctor his staff and most of the hospital staff? Well no, they bloody nearly killed me.

I having trouble spotting this guy.plenty of links but apart from one photo early on none describe exactly which boy he is. Not even the one above! Just says something about being with other models! Another poster says he has been on their Facebook for some time but again no direct link..help please So which one is he ?
there are plenty of review sites for “working boys” with photos, descriptions and reviews on the web. They have been around for decades.
Some of the three Gay Thailand review sites even have dedicated boy review forum!whats new?

. Some of my best times have been in October and May.
Correct!October and May are low season and best as far as I’m concerned.
more boys per customer.
less people in restaurants..quicker service.
same for bars
less traffic, especially in Pattaya
Cheaper hotels and more choice
Cheaper flights
saunas not so busy with falang, so more choice of thai boys!
weather may be rainy...irrelevant as I do not go to the beach!
less queueing ta the airport...flights invariably not full
i could go on.....!

In Pattaya everybody in the bars is offable.

Over 15 years and literally thousands of visits to bars and gogo bars I have only been pickpocketed once. That was in an outdoor Sunee Plaza bar by a boy I thought was getting a bit amorous....but there was more to it than that!
It cost me 1000 baht. -
The ones dressed as women I ignore, the others I may talk to if absolutely necessary (very rare).
