What's the odds they ALL need glasses ?

During my navy days in the 70's I was on HMS Ark Royal, we had been at sea for several months and Norfollk va was our first port of call.
Right outside the dockyard gate was a porno shop with cubicles at the back to sit and watch 8mm cine films on a small screen for a 25 cent in the slot.
A large glory hole either side.
 
I had a cracking wank in there. 17yo. 

55 Going Dutch...I get it. 🤣
When I was in Pattaya recently I didn't get a chance to stop by the Cuckold Bar (opposite M2M) which seemed very popular with May-December couples. One of the local guys told me it's owned by a Dutch Australian guy who's a charming host and keeps a good bar. I'll check it out the next time I'm in town.

Have you met her yet? 
She is the BEST - one of the most friendliest people that I know. 
And she trains her staff to be super friendly - already when I eat there I feel like we are all family.

and in my humble opinion - the BEST place in all of Pattaya for REAL bacon  

Yes, will be good to share our Dutch heritage.

@BjornAgain you paying attention.... next time you suggest we go for dinner, I'll remind you about this 😁

Yep, Menu Same Same.
One current difference is the plates. In that the boards used in Bangkok haven't been duplicated due to availability, so the meagre portions are served up on serving plates. Guido will be introducing them soon.
Have it via a reliable source tennants in Soi 4 are being served notice, so maybe the timing of running 2 operations will only be short term. 
Will do a review shortly. 

Weren't those photos of a messy room in QS that were posted on this forum a while ago yours? Maybe that has something to do with a higher deposit they are asking YOU for? lol

Better to be safe than sorry.
Here in Pattaya (more so in Pattaya City and rarely in Jomtien) there is a group of Indians or Pakistani men who will approach you and point to your belly.
Their scam is to take you to a nearby shop where they will sell you  expensive herbal products that will make your belly fat go away.
These "finders" get a commission if the "potential customer" makes a purchase from said shop.
After many articles in the local farang newspapers were published about this scam - now when they try with me I respond:
"Wow, I just read about you guys recently.  In fact the police are looking for you...."
Then they usually run away.

you have a good heart !
menu may be the same but if cook is different  the same dish may taste the same, better or worse than original. At my beloved Foodland Patpong  my even more beloved chicken with cashew nuts tasted bit differently during day and  in the late evening. Observation confirmed by somebody else     but it's where agreement stopped since each of us  liked better opposite version.

I would have have thought a man of your HiSo connections would have already briefed the Concierge at the Capella or to give him his prefered name, "Head of the Capella Culturists" of your imminent arrival as booking VIP Airport Fast-Track Services is one of their standard offerings.

The film (HEALS) that I am looking forward to see will be shown on Thursday 27 August 2026 at 8pm.  My understanding is that tickets cannot be pre-purchased - as seating to these screenings is free - so first come - first served.  However, within the PTYIFF facebook page there is a QR code that leads to a Google Form where you can supposedly book that you are interested in attending a specific film screening - which I did - but T.i.T. and there was no reply.  Here is the related QR code =

HEALS is a 2026 documentary that was directed by Emmy-winning Thai-American filmmaker, Pailin Wedel.  It is the story of the Thai drag performer, Pangina Heals who became very successful in Las Vegas when she was discovered by RuPaul's Drag Race Live!  It also shares the story of Pangina's coming out and the associated difficulties that this raised in a conservative Thai-Chinese household.

I am still timidly pursuing within the local drag/ladyboy community here in Pattaya to go and see the film together but I have encountered some lackluster enthusiasm - which confuses me as I had thought that the local ladyboy/drag community would want to celebrate this global moment of success.  Even after 4 years of living here - it is still difficult to understand what motivate and does not motivate the local community.
I will try again this Monday, 24 August 2026, when the Pok Model Pattaya 2026 modeling contest will take place in the Jomtien Complex, aka Supertown.  I believe that the event will start at 7pm but where the physical event will take place within the complex I have not yet discovered.  Last year's POK event took place on a big stage that was constructed in front of The Venue.

I used Google Lens translate to present the above image (original was in Thai)

Obviously these fine Gentlemen have not read this forum, else they'll soon form a different opinion.

Day 7
Somehow I found myself busy and went to bed at 2 am , only to rise at 7. Since Baan Silom does not have breakfast facilities  I went for breakfast to Foodland , 1st time this trip breakfasting there. Of course  I got 84 baht before 9 a.m. deal, not that it makes any difference since I always give them 100 baht and tell them to keep the change.
 At noon moved back to Raya. Low season so room was available already   and I got one at end of corridor , quite oddly shaped but featuring not one but two windows. Since room was on 5th floor where reception is I immediately went down to see if old , privacy preserving trick still works. It did.
 What it is  one may ask. At Raya your card works only for the floor your room is located at. So if your room is  on 7th floor  you can’t  take an elevator to floor 6 or 4. Only exception is floor 5 where reception is and floor 4 where breakfast room is. That’s the privacy trick to avoid reception and possible embarrassment for our boy . Take elevator to floor 4 and take stairs to floor 5. So much for being gentleman.
Then off to Jey Spa where I had and appointment with Ball.  I was witness to some commotion. Some young guy was trying to enter lobby and was prevented from doing so by employes there. All was relatively quiet, no screaming but it looked serious. Soon after Ball showed up , he seemed to remember me or at least pretended to and he told me the story. Storming guy was ex-boyfriend of one of their boys . He confirmed it may be serious  with possible police being called   and for that reason apologized that he must stay fully dressed . Thanks God  he did not ask me to  do the same .
Session was very pleasant nevertheless. But since he was pretty enthusiastic I suggested he will visit me in Raya . When ? right away. So after massage  I walked to BTS , he was supposed to take Grab. I beat him to Raya by good 10 minutes. 
Great repeat , this time without dress code , ahem . as a bonus he speaks good English so we could have some meaningful talk. He did not watch the watch so we were together more than normal massage session would last. Excellent treat although not exactly the cheapest, he knows his value is seems. I promised to try to see him again this trip ( and kept my word  as we learn in due course ).
After he left I rushed to G’s in soi 4 where we had dinner planned with Jason 1975 who just arrived in Bangkok but already managed to bring his guy with him.  There was also  spoon and his friend YT . as usual with late dinner  question was raised what’s next  and we accepted YT’s proposal to go to Jupiter. Not very crowded and only 12 models doing walkabout, still more guy than patrons . closer to start of the show few more patrons arrived but it was clear that off  must be thin on the ground  with number of boys equaling if not higher than  patrons. And this was universal case in all bars I visited this trip.
 Benefit was quite good seats we were awarded, in front of the stage. At one point YT asked mamasan  if one  of their boys  sitting nearby goes with guys. Warranted question as apparently some of their guys are going with girls only , God bless them. Mamasan misunderstood likely and brought guy over to us. It was moment of embarrassment as other guys had already companions lined up for tonight but, always gentleman I came  to the rescue , inviting guy to seat beside me.
  Lets call him CJB. Immediately warmed up  upon hearing he is Cambodian as recently I have soft spot for those guys. Drink yes, going with me , yes. But after the show , again yes. I sensed it will work well in the room and indeed it did . another boy today with good English. Very pleasant and amendable  so at one point I suggested he stays till breakfast as it’s dark and dangerous outside. Accepted immediately although did not budge on the price.
I’m glad I yielded as upon extension  he seemed even more enthusiastic. Best night so far even if some money was wasted because of course I fell asleep. Day 7 and I still feel time difference , sigh.
In the morning breakfast  in the hotel and we parted ways , both smiling
