Just reading the latest news on Thailand legalising marijuana this week. I think it's great that times are changing all over the World . I'm not into drugs taking of any sort but it's no use fighting a war over a drug that doesn't seem to make people violent.( Unlike alcohol) I hope the rest of the world including Australia follows suit.

One thing I'm trying to plan this trip is to stay in Boyztown or near for several nights then jomtien complex a few nights, that way I can take guys from both areas without having to use transport for both of us But I'm just wondering how you guys get back to your room with the boy if your say offing a guy in Sunee and your hotel is in jomtien,do you use mb taxis or walk down for the baht bus or you have your own transportation? I just find it such a hassle to off a guy only to spend 30 minutes in traffic getting back to the room . Often I just hire 2 mb taxis for both of us . That's why this time I'm planning more to be closer to the bars .

What hotels do we have still going in or near Sunee Plaza ? Seems mosaik is still going,although last time I stated there I ended up in a small room with a window view of a tiny laneway and facing a brick wall 😆

So did any of you guys get punched in the ring ? I'm sorry,bad joke !🤣

Yeah I prefer the written diary too,but I'm trying to keep up with the times 😆

Just wondering what apps to download ready for my Thailand & Phillipines trip. For transport I have downloaded Grab , not sure if Bolt is another one that operates ? For meetings I have downloaded Grindr & Hornet,not sure if planetromeo could be another one along with blued? For communication I have download Line , although I have WhatsApp,I'm not sure what they use in Thailand. Also is there any apps that you use to record notes & trip report , that you say can include pics etc ,is that apps such as Evernote etc ?

How did you go about it? Did you approach him ?

He is very sexy😍😍😍

Going by their website , and I could be mistaken,but it looks like it is actually for this company to process your Thai Pass ? I can't see anywhere about providing fast track thru the airport?

Interesting hotel here I saw on the app,but too far away from the action. It has train carriages as rooms www.trainresort.info

Just talking to my Filipino boyfriend today and we plan to meet late this month after my visit to Thailand. He was talking about homophobia in the Phillipines etc and it made me remember the time in Pattaya where I came across "homophobic guys in a restaurant in the soi bukhao area ,two men and a lady farang all drunk of course decided to move away from our table citing description profanities , I didn't even get into a conversation with them,but peculiarly they chose the table right next to ours despite their being umpteen tables to choose from,it didn't concern me as the Thai boy I was with didn't understand a word they said ,he was completely oblivious to it 😆 That was like 2009? 2008 So times have changed Have you ever experienced this ? As far as i remember it was once only in 20 years of coming to Thailand I have never been to the Phillipines and don't plan on holding hands or anything as I said to my Filipino friend. I think times are changing and young people nowadays are much much more tolerant and educated about gay people . Schools are teaching about transgender & gay partners etc and I think it's great , I think the only times you need to be wary of is straight guys our age who are not brought up to accept gay people. The younger farang are much more accepting and with tiktok etc there is much more awareness , but people our age 50ish ..60ish etc are still held back in time And I think another thing too, if your a older man with a younger partner I think people still think that is strange, particularly if your partner is say 30 years younger than you . I was reading the comment section of a tiktok video a older gay man in his late 50's with a Filipino boy in his 20's , unfortunately some of the comment especially from middle-aged females were horrendous describing the Farang guy as you know what that starts with P.

I'm definitely going to check out Classroom on my next trip 👍

2500 short time?...wow..these are Western prices !

Is the mosaik apartments still going ? Haven't seen them in the hotel apps lately. I noticed Rabbit resort advertised at 3k a night, haven't stayed there in like 15 years,but for that price I won't be rushing back .

Their rooms with sit on balcony look good @1450 baht per night I love a room with a balcony, can't recall if I had a balcony at Zing resort in jomtien. I know I had one at the Agate hotel in jomtien. oh and be careful when booking for the Zing hotel, I remember booking on a app way back in 2018 thinking Wow I snared a bargain here for the Zing hotel, only to find out I actually booked the Zing hotel up on the main road and not in the jomtien complex !

Though the only thing it takes to walk to the stage is confidence😉and come to think of it in a real life way ,I probably couldn't bring myself to do it 😁I would be embarrassed with everyone watching ! I would need a few pints first.🥳 Min, I hope you can contact him, it's possible they also have a FB page ?

Likewise , my heel on one foot needs cutting

Going by the pics of the gorgeous guy,he does look a bit older so I imagine he speaks relatively good English. I guess you could even try walking up to the stage and tipping him including your contact number or even inviting him for a drink later.

I would ask the waiter if that particular dancer is available. Or maybe even ask if he is available to drink with you a short time Its not as easy as it sounds I know, I have done it myself and I usually get a waiter who doesn't understand what I'm saying . I did it once at The Venue a few years ago and asked if a particular dancer was available only to have the waiter think I wanted him !😆

Thanks guys...I'm also off to the Phillipines in late June after my Thailand trip. First timer to the Phillipines and I'm a little scared. I will probably hire a gayguide to show me around. I'm thinking Manila a few days,then a bus to Angeles City.

Thanks Vinapu. Never heard of Classrooms.. Is that a new hotel ? Where is it located ?

I will also be arriving in exactly 2 weeks and can't wait 😁 I'm currently looking at all these hotel apps deciding where to book On another note , A colleague at work informed me her husband goes into a app where they bid on not only hotels but flights at almost half price I think however they do it the day before they need it. Any of you guys know any apps such as that ? Not that I'm a Cheap Charlie though, I don't mind paying more if I have to .

I didn't know that, is it the Airline or airport I contact , I probably dont need the buggy , I can still walk fast usually use the travelators, but I hated lining up, and if it's anything to go by watching the latest YouTube video of the airport I'd rather pay to get through than be stuck in a line for both Thai Pass and then moving into the immigration exit line I recall years ago there was a exit lane for senior citizens,not sure if they still have that .

Just watched a YouTube vid of a guy entering Thailand, I was surprised to see all the passengers lining up for the "Thai Pass" desk on exiting the plane and then having to line up at immigration. Only once have I used the "Fast track" service on arrival , that was around 2016 and it was great, unfortunately my budget needs to be spent on guys ,however if it's the case where the line up is full I may have to consider using the Fast track service again. They can pick you up in a golf buggy directly from the plane exit and drive you to the terminal exit and you actually go thru a different exit ,like a VIP section which was very fast as I was the only one . Unfortunately you still have to wait for your bags at the outside carousel Sorry I can't recall the cost now , I believe it was expensive then and I'm going back 5 or so years . But I hate lining up, and people pushing etc , has anyone been thru the airport lately both arriving & departing ? Watching a YouTube video a couple (backpackers) leaving for Manila showed the huge crowd lining up to departures , apparently it took them 2 hours !!

I also prefer booking via the apps, but I did get reminded at one Pattaya hotel not less than twice that I should of booked directly with the hotel itself , as far as I know it was more expensive that way so I'm not sure what they were on about.🙄
