84 baht breakfast at Foodland now. My guy and I didn't sleep much last night in 3rd floor room at 56 Surawong because traffic from Surawong Road was loud and non-stop. Walls not thick enough to block out noise from outside. I don't know if walls are thick enough to block out noise from inside! No complaints from guests in other rooms about acrobatics in my room! Roll back 12 hours. My plane touched down in Bangkok at 7pm and there were many arrivals at immigration. A quick thinking lady officer decided to open priority lanes so as to shorten the queues. Great work! Airport train and BTS were not crowded on a Thursday evening and I reached Sala Daeng BTS at 8.15pm. I decided to walk past Soi Thaniya to get to 56 Surawong and the Thaniya ladies were all out and ready unlike the gay gogo bars which only get going after 10pm. After checking into 56 Surawong, I made my way to Sun Massage for pre-arranged 1-hour massage session with Vietnamese muscle guy who speaks Mandarin well. "You go to bar now," he said to me knowingly after we finished showering together at 9.55pm. The converse happened when I entered Freshboys and met my guy. "You go massage before you come here." Maybe it was my glowing appearance. Maybe it was smell of aroma oil. Or maybe everyone knows what a slut I am. Freshboys was moderately busy. Not overflowing with customers but fair selection of single customers, two high rollers and some groups (a group of 3 farang lady tourists and a mixed Chinese group of 5 with shopping bags who invited two guys to sit with them and have drinks. According to my guy, they came last night and invited the same two guys). Lady boss came to say hi and toast one of high rollers who had two guys seated with him. My guy says he comes every night. Another high roller had 4 guys drinking with him in corner. About 30 guys working including many new faces - Myanmar and Laos. Vietnam representation continue to decline as one of my favourite guys went on visa run to Laos so he's away 2 nights. My timing was excellent. I stepped into the bar at 10pm, got a seat, said hi to mamasan and invited my regular guy down from stage. I showed mamasan 3 fingers to mean that I was offing my guy for 3 nights. A few minutes later, the show began. Unfortunately, the opening act was no longer high energy gogo dancing but a lip synching diva performance. Then came a solo sexy dance with big cock visible. This was followed by 3 guys in tiny red bikinis below and sequinned coats on top and they were dancing to The Wonder Girls "Nobody but you". Very strange performance and my guy told me this was new addition which the 3 guys had been rehearsing the past 2 weeks. Lip synching diva performance next. But next 3 performances showed cocks galore with lots of sucking. This is what Freshboys is known for and customers come to watch this. After the first show ended at 10.45pm, the guys went up the stage on rotation. I checked my bill. 2300 baht. Off fees for my guy for 3 nights - 3 x 500 = 1500 baht, my drink and my guy's drink = 2 x 400 = 800 baht. I told a waiter I wanted to pay up. Mamasans were busy entertaining VIP guests. I paid with three 1000-baht notes. I got back a 500-baht note, a 50-baht note, two 20-baht notes and lots of 10-baht coins. To my surprise, I didn't get back any 100-baht notes. I collected the 500-baht note, tipped the waiter with the 50-baht note and left the rest behind. I had to dig into my pocket to get some 100-baht notes to tip mamasan and several guys on stage as I walked past them out of bar and went to hotel.

Posting this while waiting to board plane for another weekend trip. I just narrowly missed two forum members by one week each. One left Bangkok a few days ago while another is coming next weekend. A funny thing happened. Yesterday, my Thailand phone stopped working. I tried to access Line on another phone but I couldn't get the correct password. There was no way for me to contact my regular guy. Finally, it dawned on me. He has a Tiktok account so I sent him a message there. I asked if he has Whatsapp and he said yes so we ended up using Whatsapp to communicate and we made arrangement to meet tonight. Whatsapp, in my opinion, is a better app to chat compared to Line. So looks like Whatsapp will be what I am using to chat with my guy in future. If he agrees, of course. As for the dead phone, I will have to send it for repair. I cannot dump it because there are lots of photos inside!

Glad you had fun in the one week or so that you were in Bangkok! Thanks for reporting on the different bars.

I think HotMale suffers from poor location. Tawan has its legendary reputation to still attract niche customers.

Why partially to be blamed?

Yes I shall try it in afternoon while waiting for my guy to finish work then I meet him.

My guy works in Freshboys but he doesn't take part in show. He has friends who take part and I have come to know them better through my guy.

The garlands at Freshboys are 100 baht notes stapled together by the waiters. I have given guys garlands in the past and they appreciate it. They get to keep the full 1000 baht. No need to give bar a cut. But they have to remove the staples themselves!

Which bar is your guy from?

Private show is always better! In fact, when I see my guy next weekend, I want to take him back to hotel as soon as possible. But I promise his good friend I will see his performance so I will stay for the show. And tip him after that of course!

New bar for cruising just opened in September

My regular guy at Freshboys told me that the dancers and big cock show guys have been coming to bar early to learn and rehearse some new performances the past 2 weeks. Maybe you were lucky enough to watch the new show! I will get to see it next week!

I will be in Bangkok next weekend. I will try out 1/0 since I am staying at 56 Surawong which is across Surawong Road.

Thank you for writing and posting update during your trip

Very clever advertising! During special occasions such as Songkran, the pool hosts gay parties.

I believe most people miss it because of the stalls at Patpong market. I have been there once and agree the food is more local compared to Foodland but I am so used to Foodland so I always go to Foodland. The supermarket is also handy to buy snacks back to hotel room.

Derby King is at Patpong.

Weekend trips are great but the hangover on Monday back at work is an awful feeling.

With this August trip, I have visited Bangkok 6 times this year - February, March, May, June, July and August. 4 of them were short weekend trips. "Are you coming next month September?" my guy asked me. 🤔🤔🤔

I posted in Patpong topic about my unexpected discovery. I knew some of the guys as they are my guy's good friends so I happily tipped them.

On Friday night when I arrived at airport, it was raining. I didn't fancy walking through Soi Thaniya in the rain from Sala Daeng BTS to Raya hotel so I took a taxi from airport. The taxi driver was a pretty decent fellow and he used the meter which showed 420 baht. I appreciated his safe smooth driving and gave him 500 baht, keep the change.

Before going to Saphan Kwai, I had afternoon snack at Taco Bell below Raya hotel which opened this year. Not open 24 hours though so Foodland still remains place to go for meals after midnight.

I did visit two bars - Jupiter since happened to be in Soi 4 having drinks at Circus and Moonlight because Raya was nearby. Poppy was singing at Jupiter on Saturday night and I said hello and tipped him. Models handsome as usual but I wasn't offing anyone. Half full with Asian customers when we left. Moonlight on Friday midnight was quiet affair. 10 models plus 5 floor guys and they were more than the number of customers! Boss, whom I was infatuated with, was there. But I couldn't off him. I will have to wait when I visit alone next time.

I was with my guy most of the time. I missed him very much so I decided to come again on weekend to see him. He was also feeling down because of personal issues so my arrival cheered him up. We did not go far from Raya hotel room. We kept within Silom Patpong area and enjoyed each other's company. We ate Singapore chicken rice at basement of Silom Complex, had drinks at Circus in soi 4, supper at Happy Beer Garden and finally Foodland. During the day time when he was working, I went to Phoenix Massage at Saphan Kwai. Taking taxi to Saphan Kwai was quite quick and convenient if going by highway. Of course I had to pay highway toll. Laos guy at Phoenix guy didn't speak any English but no problem. He was very eager and gave good service. Taking motorcycle taxi back to BTS was a hair-raising experience. The rider rode fast and made sharp turns to weave in and out between traffic. I had to hold onto the seat tightly. A quick ride for 40 baht and I would have walked if not for the fact that I wanted to go and meet my guy after he finished work.
