Lucky

One tip I learned: the locals don’t appreciate you holding the turkey leg by hand while you eat it. It’s considered disrespectful for an American to do this.

At two hotelsnow in Bangkok, the oatmeal is served at best as lukewarm. Cold really defines it. I tried turning the heat up at one place. Someone immmediately put it back down. No wonder the Thais aren’t bigger!

After a week in Bangkok, I can say that the fun is not diminished, jusy approached differently. I’d like to thank everyone who helped me navigate the trip.

After our original misgivings, Prince became the spa of choice for our trip. They have such a selection of beautiful guys, and even if an hour lacks a few minutes, the work at hand is well done. So, I am comfortable there, i Have tet to see another white customer there, but I wouldn’t mind! Going there every evening precluded a need for the boy bars. Sorry if you were looking for a report.

Tomcal is getting married??? Hmm, I thought that once before, and it didn’t happen.

There you go.There’s always opportunity for the enterprising um, young men!

My husband was the only Chinese guy I saw there. I wonder why the boys are in such a hurry. They just go back to the pen to await another horny tourist. i stand corrected that the Prince is not a sauna. I hadn’t given it much though, but if I had, it would seem obvious. I guess I was just focused on the activity awaiting. In researching saunas/spas I saw a lot of criticism of Prince, and it was not busy last night. We’ll probably give it a second chance. I’ll tell them Paborn sent me!

Teen romance? Or just cute boy stars? Nick Robinson sure is easy on the eyes. He has that air of sincerity surrounding his beauty that teen um, girls, can easily buy into.

You might have better luck if you were not always surrounded by admiring garotos! Who can compete with that?

I like succinct. I think Steven should be pleased at being called honest and sincere.

Being a prince of a guy, I went out to get an answer to my questions. Would you take “no” for both? prior to going, I read some reviews that said white guys got short shaft as the sauna was all about catering to the Chinese customer. So, I went there with my Chinese husband, and his one- hour massage lasted less than mine.Doing the minimal seems to apply to both races, so we can” t call them racist,can we now? It was the standard case of rub and run. I don’t expect to return. Rob and run doesn’t quite apply.

Notable too is that the instructions on the machine were all in English. I thought it was the Japanese that we’re into that stuff. But, I have changed hotels, and there is no butt washer (or dryer!) in my new room. I guess I will have to try remember how we did it back then.

Since we have noved to a new hotel near (somewhat) the old Prince Sauna, can anyone tell me if a) it is still open, and b) is it worthwhile?

I was planning to go to Screwboys, but have yet to make it. Naturally, I will give a full report!

Have you been trying?

Steven would be a great asset here. He is not known for being succinct, but he’s always honest and sincere.

A sitting story: whilst sitting on the toilet in my Bangkok hotel room, I suddenly felt a large burst of warm liguid. It was an explosion! I panicked, jumped up from the toilet, fraught with worry that some organ had burst But once I was up, I could see what happened. The hotel had installed new toilets. I hadn’t noticed that now I could wash the front or the rear. A blow dry came after! So, the blowout that I thought was from me was the butt washer, now frantically trying to find my butt. Not to worry, we’ve become the best of friends!

Are you sure that you don’t mean prune juice?

Maurice is aging well for a guy over 100.

Do you recommend the new Freshboys? Screwboys? The husband likes a more mature guy... to old, like me!

Where is it? Fresh Boys is in the spot where I think Screwboys used to be. Not that I looked hard as we were gathering supplies.

Happy New Year!

This topic has run its course! That's my opinion, but not to worry, I am not pissed off!

I have not canceled my trip to Thailand and leave this week. I am no numazu, so don't expect any enlightening and entertaining trip reports! Hopefully, I will find plenty of fun in Bangkok, perhaps even with a Thai guy or two...or three? I am there 8 nights. Then on to Hong Kong. My Chinese husband is always helpful, not just in Hong Kong where he can speak Cantonese, Mandarin, and Hainanese, but in Thailand, where so many are of Chinese descent and the dialect Teochew is common. I let him do all of the bargaining for me. It's crazy how the merchant starts dealing with me at one price, but with him they start lower right away.

Happy New Year, Numazu1!
