Seems that is a bar for Ladies to pick up boys and its on Soi Buakow: https://www.facebook.com/blacksnakeclubpattaya/ https://www.instagram.com/blacksnakeclubpattaya1/ I spotted Jack in one of the pics, s/he was the mamasan in Dude club many moons ago

I also follow this place on Twitter, have seen boys from Sun bar (Jomtien), Toyboys (Pattaya) and Screw Boys (bkk) in various clips that they show. They do seem to have a pretty impressive stable!

From my experience these 3 are definitely in the top 5, the likes NAB and Sinlapin Issan are full most nights with Bar boys spending their hard earned cash As others have posted money to parents probably also makes the top 5 The one thing that's missing from all posts so far is, that they spend it on other MoneyBoys or Bargirls They get their 1500-2000 ST tip and then blow 500-1500 on a Karaoke boy or Bar girl. This after market is how so many karaoke and after hours host bars can survive

As Spoon points out above - watch out when changing 100USD notes e.g. if you are paying for $12 meal with $100 note they will often issue you with: 2x $20s, 2x $10s, 2 x 20000 Riels, 7 x 10000 riels, 1 x 5000 riels 15 x 1000 riels etc Of course its very difficult to tot up on the fly whether you are being short changed or not and work out tips etc. In addition, one of the larger USD notes stuck amongst your wad may be damaged or old and not accepted in any shop when you try and spend it later The other thing is to make sure you have small money for the tuktuks, they always claim to have no change, so your $2-3 ride ends up costing $5. The tuktuks will also take riel as long as they are 1000, 5000 or 10000 riel notes. PassApp is the local equivalent of Grab/MyTaxi/Uber, so be sure to download that on arrival to get "fair" fare on Taxis and Tuktuks

Problem with the Silicon operation is that is usually looks pretty decent first time around. Think of it being like a sausage turning into a sausage roll The boys see their friends with one and then they copy it Of course 12 months later gravity has been pulling the silicon down into their "bell end" and they end up looking like a gigantic Chupa Chups lolly! https://images.vat19.com/giant-chupa-chup/giant-chupa-chups-lollipop-eating.jpg

Taksins pockets also ran pretty deep, those "damn peasants" were pretty happy to pick up 3-500 baht every time they voted for Thai Rak Thai and its analogs... they hand the villager a camera phone on the way into the polling station and when they came out with a pic of the polling card marked in the right places they received their bounty!

good news for their admirers is that most boys pics above are still available and on the scene Bad news is that they have all put up 10KG since the original pics!

It certainly is not. Have you seen the prices in those Asian import supermarkets that we have in Europe? When BF is in Ireland he easily spends €20+ per day on produce that he then has to bring home, prepare, cook and clean up after (3 times a day!) Similarly he can spent €10-15 on fast food/pub grub and then want to cook again when he gets home as that food was "just a snack" You washing machine will be running at least 3 times as much as normal, as will your dishwasher and oven. Giving you a much higher electrical and water bill. Then there is the cost of a night out. Drinks, shots, night club entry, fast food after club, taxi home. We easily spend €200 a night (and remember he will want at least 2 nights out a week, with you or his newly found Thai friends). Plus a night or 2 in cinema, another €50 per trip Finally return flights from Europe to Thailand are much cheaper than Thailand to Europe. Travel insurance is much cheaper for a European and there is no need for expensive trips to the embassy to get visas processed BF used to come here for a month every Aug/Sept, till we realized that it was cheaper for me to go there for 2 weeks and party every night!

Great report so far Jason, looking forward to the rest Some questions about the 4000B bottle of JD... any responses can wait until after you return! Were unlimited mixers & ice included or was it a set amount e.g. 8 cokes? Were the boys allowed to drink for free or were you charged for drinks? (Some bars allow staff (waiters, mamasans etc) to drink for free but insist that you must buy at least 1 boy drink for every gogo boy that comes to your table. If they have a subsequent drink then that can be from the bottle without additional charge) Also did you spot the price of Johnnie Walker Red Label? Thanks in Advance!

Monks also shave their eyebrows so doubt he was ordained When I see a Pattaya gogo boy with a recently shaven head and intact eyebrows, I usually assume that they have just spent a few days in a remand prison for a minor offence and not the monks In Babes case however I think he's too clean cut to have been caught up in some petty crime (and he's about as far removed as possible from a Sunee Gogo boy!)

I know of "Big Eye" in North Pattaya that has such shows.... Perhaps it has been renamed? Tickets wee in the 1500B bracket last time I asked.... and it mostly fills with Chinese tour groups

My friend you(aka your friend) CentraN shopping mall NAP club (instead of NAB) I have no idea what the manager of Dave club was thinking when he renamed it to Dave Club Erra-root-shun (Evolution) Friend of mine had an Austrian BF Heinz. In the end he used to just call him Hi or Heineken as he just couldn't get his tongue around that inz On the Blue'd app I frequently get asked to send a pic of my chicken (cock!) My favourite error in translation was when my BF told me he had leprosy... turns out he had a rash!

I always thought that the manager in TB was called Puk (that's certainly his FB name) AFAIK The owner of TB is from Taiwan and can sometimes be seen on the terrace?

Great Stuff! Almost feels exactly the same as my first night in Bkk! Except that was in 2000 and Galaxy boys was probably gone then... Instead your tout (and it undoubtedly was!) took me to BoyZone on Silom Soi 3

Don Muang still has that same distinctive smell, so you can always go back there for it! Speaking of Don Muang, I flew from its domestic terminal recently and I was very impressed, the selection of reasonably priced relevant shops and eateries was great Similarly the revamped toilets and waiting areas with charging points puts Suvanabhumi to shame... its only when you get into the hallways before the airbridges or arrivals that you realize that you are in the same old smelly Don Muang!

I presume you mean the 5 cl bottles. as 5ml is around the same size as a teaspoon! Then again with some of the weak drinks I have had around Sunee and the Bkk gogo bars I would not be surprised if 5ml was the standard measure in some of those joints!

We ended up staying in the D'varee Pula express at Songkran... Lets just say we won't be back! The 150B beers in the (nice but exorbitant) beer yard were ridiculously overpriced.... But the staff demanding that we gave back the additional 2 towels that we "stole" from them at checkout takes the biscuit. One b*tch stood there and absolutely swore that she gave us 2 extra towels at 17.00 the previous night It was only when I pointed out the fact their hotel was well known for doing this to guests on TripAdvisor that the manager called off the Rottweiler's who were attempting to strip search us! I would rather stay at the Tarntawan in the future!

https://rent.men/EMofficialSydney - this guy charges 250AUD In call or 300AUD out call Can also check the rates of the other Sydney hookers on rent men and get an idea of the going rates

They were most definitely aggressively soliciting tips in for what for me was a protracted time period. The boys in BBB do not hang around so long

TBH i found that they outstayed their welcome begging for tips at the end of the show, it was a bit tiresome On the other hand agree entirely with the rest of your post, all good fun, and some spectacular members on display!

I met the manager of a-bomb (Pat) out and about over Songkran He says they have a new Japanese owner and plan to re-open around mid may, currently work is ongoing to remodel the bar (lower the stage, new toilet, new tiling etc)

Thaksin came into power in 2001 and started the "social order campaign" Purachai the interior minister, forced bars and nightclubs to shut by 1am, banned anyone under 20 from entry, prohibited the sale of alcohol after midnight, and corralled nightspots into a restricted number of areas in each town and city. These new laws lead to months of police raids on bars and saunas, extra judicial killings and were the start of the decline in Thailand nightlife As for the jobs that were previously unavailable.... in 2001 there was no family mart and the 7-11s were usually 500 meters apart (unlike todays 50), there were no mega malls or cinema multiplexes. SF cinema pays 14000 a month with decent working conditions (and free movies!) That sure beats selling your ass on a gogo floor with no guarantee of an off (or even a drink tip) at the end of the night. As Bucknaways guide friend points out the buys can still freelance on the apps when rent us due or there is a birthday party or morlam coming up

For those that like the body painting show (not me) it can still be found in Dream Boys Pattaya, along with the old candle show, soda water show etc

Don't think so. At same time upstairs there was 50+ boys in Lucky boys and at least 40 in Fresh Boys 2 (who seem to have stolen a lot of the screw boys crew) and similar numbers in Bannna boys

I was in DBP last Thursday night and they only had 3 boys and maybe 9 customers The waiter kept promising that there would be more boys coming soon. But none arrived The show started after 20 mins of the same 3 guys dancing and it was the usual over the hill faded muscle guy dancing to "sex bomb" or a similar shit song Next act was a fat Ladyboy that stripped off her clothes to reveal an average sized erection and then started to pull a kilometre of pink ribbon out of her ass... Naturally I left at that point and doubt I will be back
