Perhaps they don't want you as a guest because you're too famous and your groupies follow you wherever you go - and the hotel likes to keep a low profile and remain simple. 😸

Worried about having garlic breath? I guess you've never been kissed by a Thai guy. 😏 You mean at night he wears his little black dress and six-inch stilettos?

What have you been smoking gurl? Iran hasn't sought to occupy territory belonging to its neighbours; Israel has. Iran has never initiated attacks against its neighbours; Israel has intiated and sustained attacks on all of its neighbours, including Lebanon, Syria, Libya, Iraq, Yemen and Iran. Iran hasn't got nuclear weapons, Israel has. Iran has openly allowed UN agencies and the IAEA to inspect its nuclear facilities; Israel won't even admit to having nuclear weapons. Who's the "misbehaving neighbour" on the "street" now? Cruel regime? Hello, isn't dropping a US Tomahawk missile on a school and killing 185 schoolgirls cruel? And what about shooting down an Iran Air Airbus A300 in 1988 by a US warship and killing all 290 commercial passengers on board? What do you call that? A unique brand of American mercy? You think their families and descendants are simply going to forgive and forget? Are we to believe they were both accidents on the part of supposedly the world's greatest military? My grandparents lived under both the British and Japanese Occupations and like to brag that they know the lyrics to both God Save the King and the Kimigayo and, while there were traits they admired in both cultures, have never failed to remind us of the horrors both occupiers had inflicted on the local populations. And my grandfather would add that the Japanese, as cruel as they were, were fair and always paid for what they took whereas the Brits would just steal and "appropriate" and then make the locals pay to gain access to what was theirs to begin with. 🙄 Moreover if cruelty is a motive for attacking and intervening in a country, why not attack Saudi Arabia, which has a far worse human rights record than Iran. Or why didn't the US attack Iran during the Pahlavi regime which was extremely brutal to its own people? Ohh wait, the US and the UK put that regime in power in return for 40% access to Iranian oil. 40%! Did you know that female literacy went up three times under the Ayatollahs after the fall of the Pahlavis and now Iranian women are amongst the most literate in the world? And what did the US and the Israelis do? Kill Iranian schoolgirls. Ohh the irony! The western mainstream media has never reported fairly on the plight of the Palestinians. When they report on the genocide, the news is always skewered towards the Israelis being the victims. Boo-hoo. Right now the Israelis are mercilessly carpet bombing southern Lebanon, targetting schools and hospitals, their favourites. It's what they do; kill, kill, kill to get what they want and if they don't, they kill some more. Western mainstream media reporting has got worse with that rabid Zionist Barrie Weiss now the head of CBS news and as CNN and other major media outlets become monopolised by a tiny but very powerful band of pro-Israeli conglomerates like the Ellison Company which also owns Oracle, Paramount and Warner Bros and are big donors to Donald Trump. Thank god for Aljazeera and independent media like Zeteo, Breaking Point, The Majority Report and Owen Jones for their impartial reporting and for analysts like Ilan Pappe, Norman Finkelstein, Jeffrey Sachs and John Marsheimer. And that brave, brave UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese. 🫶

🤣 Trump, Dimwitkoff and Trump's nelly, bottom son-in-law who proudly bragged about building luxury condos on the unmarked graves of Gaza's children can hardly be trusted. I think Trump is desperate and his administration is flip-flopping on the way forward with this terrible assault on Iran and seem surprised that Iran is fighting back. Hellooo, they've been preparing for this for decades! The genocidal Israeli regime, which wanted and pushed for this assault on Iran, of course doesn't want it to end until Iran is completely destroyed and in utter chaos so that they can have complete and utter hegemony over the region. Except for battles here and there where it achieved limited objectives, the US hasn't had a single major victory since WW2 and it will be the same here. What's important is that a new generation of freedom and resistance fighters who have seen their mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters killed by the US and Israel, has been born. And what this new generation of Iranians have learned from this murderous aggression by the Americans and the Israelis on their homes and their lives is that might is right which may encourage them to develop nuclear weapons for real in the future. The fight against the genocidal Israeli regime and its US sponsors will thus continue. Amen.

Well, if he's sucking blood (and other fluids), most of his work would be at night and he wouldn't be sleeping.

😅 I agree; it can very difficult to understand them! But Scotland is beautiful and the people are very nice, much nicer than the English in my experience. I watched this video of Supertown recently and, in addition to the terrible and misguided "day and night" split editing, the two narrators are barely audible and their accents difficult to make out. They're Scot, aren't they? I tend to get my Keltics, Celtics and Gaelic mixed up. My very good Irish friend insists there's a difference and I tell him you all look equally pale to me.😅

@Home Bar? I've heard nice things about it. Now you know how we feel reading your posts day after day. I know we don't have to but we just don't have the heart to ignore you, at the expense of our own mental well-being. 😪

Says the pot to the kettle. 🙄

Actually, no. Money is the currency of a lawyer's business. Lots of it. Those suites at the Le Meridien don't come cheap you know. 🤣😂😅

Selling gay children's clothes? I don't think so...🙄

Samae San island in Sattahip district. I remember you mentioning it sometime ago and was wondering whether you had been. It's gorgeous with white sandy beaches and crystal clear waters but we went just after Covid when much of Mother Nature had had a chance to recover. Samae San is a cluster of eight mini islands comprising Samae San and seven others. Bring a large hat with you and slap on the sunscreen generously as it's burn-baby-burn scorching hot right now. Hope the fresh air and being away from boy shenanigans will help you recharge and give you a fresh perspective on things. 🫶

I'm sorry to hear that. Might be a good idea to put on the Depends as you wouldn't want any accidents on the long flight home. Take care.

Have a safe flight home, @Olddaddy. Hope you can make the long walk to the aerobridge without too much pain.

No, it isn't. Some of the guys like their independence and don't like being beholden to anybody. Moreover, a popular guy could be making 100,000 Baht a month (there are hosts from the big host bars bringing in 300,000 ++ Baht per month; one I know just bought a Mercedes convertible) and there aren't that many sponsors willing to part with that amount as compensation for taking him permanently out of the bar.

This is trite. Clearly I was thinking out loud and expressing my views on the matter and have no control over the actions or folly of others. All acceptable reasons in my opinion and nothing new. But "sorry, I can't go with you tonight because my sugar daddy forbade me to" takes it to another level of absurdity. 🙄

I believe in it's on the ground floor of the multi-storey carpark in Jomtien Complex, you know the one that's been declared unsafe and abandoned.

I'm not sure of the point you're making by this. Surely the current twenty and thirtysomethings working in the sex trade aren't the same ones you referred to above; they are tech savvy and know the score. Three weeks on the scene and they are seasoned players.

True. I've heard many straight guys complain that Guido's pussy smells like German sausage. 😏

Doesn't make sense. Why continue working in a go go bar where customers have a reasonable expectation to "off" the guys working there for sex. I can understand the need or desire to continue working even with a sponsor - and it's in fact admirable - but why can't they work some place not related to the sex industry? Personally, I find it very suss and wonder how many of these guys keep their promises to their sugar daddies. And I also find it very silly (naive?) of their sugar daddies to agree to let their sugar babies continue working in the bars and expect them not to go with other customers. Have they forgotten where they met their objects of desire? After twenty years, it still amazes me how many johns still think they've met the perfect virgin whore. 🙄 It's also a fact that @jimmie50 is also his customer and would have an equal chance of "offing" this Banana Bar guy even on those days the bar is busy. Therefore, his reply after @jimmie50 had made it clear to him that he had made dinner plans with a friend sounds like a pressure tactic and is off-putting to me. There are plenty of fish in the sea.

Obviously not one of Angelina Jolie's children. 😏

Or 10,000 Baht for three full days. Unless this Cam fellow is a star and can make more with somebody else for the same amount of time, I think that amount is generous and a nice parting "gift" to remember you by. Of course you're free to give more but always remember that you'll be remembered by your last tip and they will expect the same or more in subsequent visits. It doesn't matter how nice and kind you think you've been to them; the numbers always go up.

They do but traditionally it takes two men to carry a sedan chair which sadly won't work in Olddaddy's case. 😞

...says he who's only familiar with back entrances. 😏

They won't; it'd simply be too costly with those multiple personalities. 😏

I believe Freshboys has a "sexy" show at 10 PM but try to get there by 9.45 as it gets filled up quickly. Moreover it's a long weekend in Brunei, Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore (Eid) and Bangkok may get a little busy. Goodboys and Banana Bar have "sexy" shows too I think but I'm not sure of the times.
