vinapu

makes sense as Africa is too poor and Americas too far

and off fee at BoyzBoyzBoyz is 1000 baht

congratulation for being voice of reason

I always acquire it locally

excuses, excuses....

use side staircase leading to sub alley between two Patpongs which seems more user friendly

all of them do

not saying No, returned home from month long absence yesterday and still did not check 6/49 draws for last 5 weeks so yes , there's possibility I may be on my way , business class, as early as after tomorrow ( still jet lagged, lol )

indeed. I still fondly recall one in Raya two Tawan boys suggested as my birthday gift back in 2016. They called it sophistically "special show"

Not to dispute your findings but there's still possibility they may have their admirers not to mention use for bar as performers in the show. When visiting bars , and I make a point of visiting most of them, if not all , on every trip , I was witnessing offs of boys I would never venture to for that reason or another. On streets I often see farangs walking with girls or rather ladies who could work part time as witches , well past their prime and I doubt they are being engaged because their dusting or cooking skills.

and still world see you in Thailand quite often so my guess will be things did not deteriorate that much, no ?

+1 we should remind ourselves that those bars are not gay bars but boy bars. On my last trip while visiting Dreamboys one of their boys , veteran of several offs by myself was making motions toward me indicating he may be interested in at least drink if not outright an off. Since I had another plans I was greatly relieved that minutes later quite attractive Chinese looking girl in mid 30-ties called him over and shortly after , on my watch off they went, I strongly doubt for souvenir shipping.

That's surprise ! When did he die ? Such a waste, sigh

And so are some boys

Always up to a challenge but no immediate plans to visit Thailand anytime soon.

We won't know until we try

Likely should be on the list as place where more than half population is born abroad and this should bring plenty of food diversity

Only if you need to wait, driving time depending on traffic is 1.5 to 2 hrs so not much longer than taxi time.

Yes you can as Obama would say. I did it in advance on my recent arrival and no issues. One just needs to go to the counter at Swampy to exchange voucher for an actual ticket. Since I was bit earlier they even gave me seat on earlier bus for consideration of 50 baht.

And Windhoek, Namibia as well as Mendoza, Argentina

I have feeling he would be happier if you bought him a bus ticket and give him difference to lomo price in cold cash .

Jason , welcome home !

And report briefly shortly after please

All depends on our own definition of fun

Since you are in UK from where it, s relatively short hop to Bangkok, at least when compared to North American' s ordeal to get there, I'd go for more frequent, shorter trips. As floridarob mentioned, waiting whole year for the next trip may be a chore.
