More details here: Rare Opportunity to Acquire Circus Soi 4, One of Bangkok’s Best-Known LGBTQ Hospitality Venues -- Your Ultimate Guide | PrideThailand Lease details are given including rent and "key money". And the seller says: "A fast sale is preferred, and the asking price has been set at 4 million Thai baht for serious buyers who are ready to move quickly."

Yes Circus bar opposite Balcony. No idea re leases.

"Circus Soi 4 Silom Bangkok is now available for sale with an asking price of 4 million Thai baht. This is a rare chance to acquire one of Bangkok’s best-known LGBTQ restaurant, bar and entertainment venues in the heart of Silom Soi 4. The business is fully set up, currently trading, and in profitable operation, with average monthly turnover generally seen between 2.5 million Thai baht and 4 million Thai baht per month and full POS records available for the last five years. The venue has operated as Circus Soi 4 for more than five years and was previously known for approximately 30 years as Telephone Pub, one of Thailand’s most iconic LGBTQ venues. The business includes three connected shophouses with restaurant, bar, outdoor balcony, nightly show space, upper-level viewing areas and a private bar/karaoke room on the top floor. The venue operates at an estimated profit margin of over 30%, subject to buyer due diligence, and has a solid client base with a strong social media following. The current owners are selling due to other projects outside hospitality and are offering the venue at 4 million Thai baht for a fast sale to suitable new operators. The sale is intended as a full takeover of the operating company, business, lease position, brand, equipment, POS history, social media assets and operational setup, subject to due diligence and legal transfer. Serious buyers should contact Cameron McKean at cameron@howtopay.com or +66 95 504 1237 by phone, WhatsApp or LINE to arrange a confidential discussion." Above posted via Facebook on 28 May. -There are also stories circulating that by the end of this year developers will take over Soi 4 and that the bars there could move to "Soi Twilight". This may be unsubstantiated though the popular German restaurant inside Soi 4 {opposite Banana Bar} is relocating to Pattaya. Incorrect gossip or does anyone know what really is happening?

I have not been in Jupiter for a few years but a source from another bar claims the boys there (or at least some of them) are asking for S/T or L/T tip of 5000 baht? True or just wrongful gossip?

"The handphone has become an indispensable object today." -I agree with that. And the loss of a phone in Thailand often needs a police report to be made...

When I said fully booked i meant that mainly it seems 90% plus booked. Can get a room there for a night or 2 but when I checked for 3 nights plus on the dates I wanted either the reply was fully booked or a different room for each night. Anyway Sansuk looks interesting so I appreciate your helpful reply.

I hope to visit Jomtien again soon for a few days. Zing resort seems fully booked so any suggestion for alternatives with pros and cons: Agate and The Venue or others? Thanks, any help!

Dear oh dear oh dear oh dear. Listen OP. You are being far too nice and rather than being a cheapskate you are too generous. Others have given you detailed advice as above which I cannot disagree with. The nub of the issue is you letting want-to-be Hi So Lao to control the relationship. End it now politely but firmly and find another where you are in control. There are plenty available!

I want the last cheque(check) I write to bounce...

Just my opinion: As part of the process of "offing" a boy it is surely best to explain to him that before taking him back to your room will go together to other place or places e.g. DJ station or wherever. And as and if appropriate adjust the fee to reflect the additional time. Make sure he understands and agrees. Usually I also get him to agree before offing him what is expected of him: versatile or otherwise.

No problem Peter RS. If you listened to the whole of the broadcast in my opinion it gives some interesting insights into the mindset of some Thais...and may help us non Thais have a better understanding about them...call it pop culture or whatever... But hey when u meet Thais in everyday life in say in Silom at night they will tell u all about the latest symphonies and architecture etc..... 😀

I recently listened to this podcast coming from Bangkok. If you have the time its' worth a listen Some interesting culture especially in particular about ghosts and gays! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/w3ct6ztf
