I don't smoke in Australia because none of my friends do and I don't want my house to stink of cigarette smoke. However, I do when I'm travelling. (I'm looking forward to my trip next week to Kuala Lumpur where I can enjoy a smoke while sipping on a beer). In Thailand, I like to sit in the smoking area where the gogo boys gather and get up close and personal with them. They are always so friendly. If I'm standing behind a guy in 7/11 who is buying cigarettes, if he is cute I'll learn over and pay for them. The smile I get in return is well worth it. In Australia a packet of cigarettes is about 1000 baht!!!! So at the moment there is a huge problem work shops everywhere selling illegal ones for around 500 baht. So much so that many shops and supermarkets no longer sell legal cigarettes. In Western Australia they are now cracking down on illegal sellers and they get closed down for 90 days if caught. And it seems to be working.

That would be an important factor for me. I have fond memories of the hung guys at the old Good Boys - Chet, the twins and the guy with the gold chain. All very much a handful. And very masculine,too. They would rush out to meet me as I walked (actually, ran!) down the soi. 'Pick me! Pick me!' I would often sit in the bar opposite Good Boys - All of Me - to give my arm a rest and the boys would wave at me and beckon me to come over. Every now and then a guy would wander over and show me the goods. I never saw small cock on that bar.

Only golden showers, if he's into that kind of thing. The budget didn't stretch to golden faucets.😒

I guess you never made it a bit further down the soi to Nature Boy. It was like a short, narrow corridor with a small stage at the end. Space was at a premium, especially when the Isaan guys released their cocks from their pants! I was often the only customer. While I was playing with one of the guys, the others would sit down the back watching porn on their phones, jerking off.

Yep, that's what I do. I believe that if god wanted us to save, he wouldn't have created shopping centres, nice restaurants, international travel and available guys.. But I'm at the stage of life now where I'm getting rid of stuff because I've already got everything I want, so I no longer spend, spend, spend. It's a nice problem to have at our age, I suppose. But that's what we've worked for all our lives.

I'm a 100% hands-on type of guy. I'm happiest when my hand is on a cock. So my favourite bar was the old Nature Boy - not the bar that's there today. My first favourite guy was O. I'd walk in, he would pull up a stool, pull his cock out and put his hand up my shorts. (I had them order-made in Bali with wide legs to allow easy access). We'd fondle each other for about an hour as we drank and enjoyed cigarette or two. We'd then retire to my hotel for a long suck and 'chuck' session. Later, when I became a bottom, I got to enjoy that monster up my arse. As a bonus, he would let me cum in his mouth. After O found a boyfriend and was no longer available, I found Mai. Such a lovely guy! And with an even bigger Isaan cock for me to enjoy. We went through the same routine I had with O. The fun continued back in the room; it took a while and a bit of trial and error, but eventually I was able to 'accommodate' his monster. I'd go to Nature Boy without fail every evening while I was in Bangkok. My other favourite was the old Golden Cock - the only bar open during the afternoon. I've had some really great times there when they would lock the door (I'm shy 😂) and let everything hang out. And an honorary mention to Solid bar.

It's way too big for me. It has a separate apartment on the second floor, which came in very handy during Covid - I had a guy stay with me during that time and I put him up there. I don't want to be with someone 24/7. I had sex on tap and wonderful companionship. Paid for, of course. I didn't want the lift, either, although it will probably come in handy as I get older. The only reason I have a house that I don't really need is due to its location. It's right on the Indian Ocean, so I can sit out on the balcony with friends and enjoy the beautiful sunset every evening. You can not buy a small house if it is in a location with ocean or river views. My problem is that, as an only child, who am I going to leave it to when I die? That's probably something a lot of us think about if we have no dependents. At one time I thought I might find Mr Right in Asia somewhere, but what would he do with a house in Perth, of all places? In any case, I didn't find him. I wonder if Olddaddy would be interested? 😂

Yeah, but you don't kiss! BTW, do you spit or swallow! (Asking for a friend).

I don't have any kids, so what's mine is mine. I am a baby boomer yet I'm still very physically active and feel like I did when I was in my 40s with tons of energy. When I travel I can still climb up stairs and walk around all day. Sometimes I walk over 20 km. I have a lift (elevator) in my house but I never use it, as I prefer to walk up the stairs. If I can maintain my health, I reckon I've got another 10 years or more. Fingers crossed.

I hate it when customers monopolise all the guys! This used to happen quite often in Eros in Sunee - my favourite bar in Pattaya. I'd walk in, looking forward to a night of cock, only to find most the guys were sitting with a farang who had opened a bottle of whisky. Other customers just sat there, staring at the ceiling. Before too long, the boys were falling down drunk and would end up sleeping on the couches. The trick was to get there early enough before the farang arrived.

Come on, Olddaddy. You can't even get a simple hand job for that in Australia.

Speaking from fairly extensive experience, I think the Vietnamese guys all behave in the same way. They tend to hang out together - no surprise there - and discuss the ins and outs (!) of their job amongst themselves. It seems they have decided that their modus operandi is to do as little as possible for as much money that can squeeze out of us silly old farang. There was a very attractive guy working at Goodboys. He had a swimmer's body and killer smile, which he flashed all night. I was thinking of taking him but decided against it when the mama-san told me he was Vietnamese. A forum member did, in fact, off him, and had a very unsatisfactory experience. Having been burnt many times over the years, I steer well clear of Vietnamese guys, no matter how attractive they are in the bar.

I took the same flight to Luang Prabang. Had I known it was a propeller - driven aircraft, I would not have taken it. I remember looking out the window and seeing the propeller right next to me. It was very scary!

No doubt that in Thailand, the more money you are willing to spend in the bars, the more fun you have. So I don't hold back and end up having the time of my life. It's the kind of fun which is not available to me in Australia so I don't care too much about what I spend. YOLO!

I've had occasion in the past to go back to the bar and complain about an off. Once I took a guy from the old Screwboys back in the soi Twilight days. He just hopped into bed and decided he'd go to sleep! When I asked him to do what's he's getting paid for, he got aggressive. If I recall correctly, I have him a small amount of money and sent him on his way. I went back to the bar and told them exactly what had happened. They immediately refunded me the off fee and said they would get rid of him, which they did. I never saw him again. So although you won't get your money back, the bar needs to know about the behaviour of their guys. Who knows? You may not be the first to complain about him.

Far from keeping you forever young, it sounds like a recipe for an early drop off the perch. Oh, and you misspelt 'Days'. I think you meant 'daze'.

I'm in the same boat. I find Indian guys incredibly sexy and there are some really handsome ones,too. I've watched a lot of youtube videos of people travelling around India to get an idea of what to expect. And I'm not particularly impressed. The 2 most common complaints refer to the constant honking of horns, and the stink when you get away from the tourist sites and wander around the streets. The sheer amount of garbage everywhere is unbelievable, And I'm sorry but from my experience with running into Indians in my travels, they also stink - not just because they don't wear deoderant or don't shower, but also because they don't wash their clothes frequently enough. I think it's definitely a cultural thing. There are tens of thousands of Indians working in Japan - mainly in the service industry- ,where personal hygiene is held in the highest regard. The slightest whiff of BO would mean instant dismissal.

I thought Mpox had disappeared. But Western Australia (population 3 million) has recorded 22 cases so far this year, as opposed to 2 in Thailand (population 71.6 million) I'm OK because I only have 2 regular sex partners and I never visit gay establishments here. But still, it's a real concern. According to the Director-General of Thailand's Department of Disease Control, “Mpox cases continue to be detected, particularly among groups with risk behaviours. The best prevention is to avoid close skin-to-skin contact with people who have symptoms, and to avoid sexual contact with strangers or anyone with a rash or skin lesions that may suggest infection." Are visitors to Thailand still talking about it, or has everyone moved on?

My friends and I make a point of never mentioning the orange buffoon, as we are sick and tired of seeing his face every day in the media, and reading about another utterly stupid decision. But the bewilderment he causes us continues unabated. Why aren't his supporters (like buckanaway here) not incensed that he's using taxpayers' money to reward thugs who beat up and killed police officers? And don't they realise that 1.7 billion dollars would pay for a lot of their health care? Why don't they care that Trump is signalling to future insurrectionists that not only will he pardon them if they fight for him, he'll also take taxpayers' money and pay them? In what other democratic country would this happen? Buckanaway's silence speaks volumes.

I know it's there! It's just that as I have no interest in sex with women I can't understand why a guy would fuck another guy whilst looking at his feminine face. But as I said, to reach his own.

I've never been able to understand why a gay man would be attracted to a guy who looks and acts like a woman. Wouldn't you bypass the fem guy and go look for a girl instead? I have nothing against guys who like the feminine look - to each his own - but it remains a total mystery to me. I'm obviously missing something!

You're not wrong, Peter! The presenter is way too fem for me. As for the club itself, I'm now too old to even consider wandering around in my underwear - it would not be a pretty sight! Also, I stay clear of places frequented by young guys as I obviously wouldn't fit in. But in my younger days.........

The two Asian guys are so.....gay! Yuk! Give me a hot, masculine guy to fuck!

The parents aren't stupid. They would soon realise that the amount of money he sends home each month couldn't possibly be from the earnings of a lowly-paid construction worker. They would be well aware of the kind of business their kids are in when they go to work in Thailand and start sending cash home. They would be well aware that you guys didn't meet on a construction site. It's the old 'don't ask and don't tell'. A number of Thai guys over the years have told me that everyone knows that the best house in the village has been paid for by the old farang partner of a young local. But noone cares as long as the money and gifts keep rolling in. If you can afford it, go for it. Do whatever you want to be happy. YOLO.

Is there any nudity or sex shows like the now-closed Escape Bar?
