Thanks for reporting - always love hearing about your adventures!

Back in Bangkok after only one month!
I agree with you, but can understand if it was a 'once off' customer, but because Jason is quite a regular customer and known to the bar, it is a little disrespectful, no?

BOYS TOWN IN PATTAYA, DEAD?
I visited A-Bomb in January of this year as I was staying at the hotel directly above. On the night I went, it was very low on customer numbers (perhaps 3 or 4), and very low on boy numbers (I think only 1 or 2). The show still went on but I think it was outsourced as these boys left straight after the show. I only went that one time so I cannot comment on whether it would be busier on other nights or not.

Side cruising bar
I noticed this too! Great to have many new gay venues popping up

Togayther Hostel Silom
Thanks for confirming! I think I might try out 1/0 on my next trip, but I don't think I would be game to stay at a hostel lol, maybe one day just for fun

Togayther Hostel Silom
Just had a look at some google reviews - Togayther Hostel Black is the one you would have seen sign-posted, and the original Togayther Hostel is a few blocks away.

Togayther Hostel Silom
I stand corrected then. I got my information from google maps where 1/0 Sauna is in the soi directly across from Le Meridien, and Togayther Hostel in the soi that also houses Wall Street Inn. I also found out that the top floor(s) of 1/0 Sauna is called Togayther Hostel Black.

Retiring here
A question for you to ponder - if you were to retire in Australia instead, how would you spend your days?

I didn't really know about Derby King until I think someone mentioned it a while ago on the forum. Must have walked past it many times in the past without realising!

Togayther Hostel Silom
As far as I can tell, the sauna and hostel aren't next to each other, but a short 4 minute walk. I do also believe that the sauna has opened up some accomodation on the upper floors, if I recall correctly. Hostels and saunas aren't really my thing either, but it sounds kinda fun. Maybe one day.

Good Boys
On my very first trip I couldn't spot it either because it is not right on the main road - it is set back a little bit. If you walk into the archway of The Pavilion Place, you will soon be able to spot it.

a short visit
No better place to express yourself than in Thailand. No one knows you here so it is a safe space to be yourself. I'm usually shy in my 'real life' but not so much when in Thailand.

Sunrise Tacos on the corner of Silom Soi 4 for Mexican food which I've always enjoyed Lay Lao on Silom Road for great Thai Food Ros'Niyom in the basement level of Silom Complex also has decent Thai food, and there are many other restaurants on that level (as well as scattered around the complex) Jungko Bameekiaw on Convent Road for simple and tasty noodles (also a plethora of street food stall and numerous restaurants on this street) Ringer Hut near Thaniya Road for Japanese food Rolling Ribs at Le Meridien was quite good, but a bit pricey 90 Grams at Quarter Silom I've heard is quite good (pizza) but I haven't tried yet And there are many restaurants in Silom Edge which I've yet to try. Hopefully this helps. The great thing about Silom (or Bangkok/Thailand in general) is that there are a plethora of options of many different cuisines and differing price points. Let us know how you go

Can vouch for Somtum Der! It's usually best after a visit to Senso (which is practically next door).

Bangkok/Chiang Mai advice
This also works sometimes when searching for hotels on google maps.

Muay Thai fighter bodies are probably one of my most favourite type of bodies 🤤😍 delicious!

Bangkok/Chiang Mai advice
I usually go with whoever is cheaper, usually it is Agoda and I've never had any issues with them in the past, but sometimes trip.com, Expedia or booking directly can be cheaper - I just usually stay from the OTA I don't really know and stick to the bigger companies. Woody is great, I've used his services once.

Ayutthaya advice
Thanks for all of the suggestions, guys - looks like a day trip will be sufficient!
-
Ayutthaya advice
I have started to plan out my next Thailand trip (26 days is just not enough ) and have always wanted to visit Ayutthaya. I just want to get a general consensus on whether it would be worth spending 1 or 2 nights there (I would catch the train) or just visit as a day trip. Thanks!
