If you want to take in some Thai culture check out Siam Niramit in Bangkok, if it's open you can book from any of the tour operators or travel agents in Bangkok, full ticket usually has transport and banquet meal as well as the show. Well worth it if it's still open. I know this one can be a tourist trap but I also like Asiatique, bit of a market and some real nice restaurants there.

You can try the 2 Kings bars on Patpong 1 and also Black Pagoda on Patpong 2, also over Sukhumvit way there is Nana Plaza (there were a few ladyboy bars there at one time, never know he may be curious to see them. Soi Cowboy would be better for first timer though), Soi Cowboy from what I've heard is doing well again and plenty of action. Plenty of massage shops that do soapies over that way too, some very nice ladies in them that would take good care of him😁 The girls on Thaniya are more interested in the Japanese so if he's walking that street and he sees one he fancies he may get a no answer but then again he may just get lucky.

Bar staff I've spoken to in the past have mentioned the resons they won't go with some people and the two major reasons were cheapness (as mentioned above multiple clients for the price of one) and hygene, there are some seriously bad body odours (and real bad breath) out there and I can't blame them from not wanting to experience it. Hell, it's bad enough on the BTS at times let alone having to spend time with the bad odour, from experience there have been times I got off the BTS when the odours were so bad. For some I think it's their diet that causes it but some others I think it simply a case of not using soap.

I've seen that with groups of 4 to 6 trying to get a girl to go with them for a gang bang but for the price of a single

That's good, now I wish they would update their schedules and fares from Perth to Bangkok beyond the 3 months at a time they do now. I would love to check fares and book a trip for next year but the schedules for the Perth route on their website are only updated every 3 months and the next update is November but I want to check March onward. Singapore airlines may come into play if they don't.

Being bi I wasn't into kissing other guys until a rather hot twink in Phuket changed my mind, he was one of the best kissers I had ever had the pleasure of kissing. Since that introduction I have found kissing has always been part of the play and I simply ask at the start if kissing is ok and have always got a yes answer. As yet I haven't had a partner that didn't use tongue when kissing, maybe not deep tongue but enough to keep me happy and I always try to ensure my partner at the time has a good time. As for sucking, if the cock is clean and no visible signs that something isn't right then I suck and I have come to enjoy getting some tasty Thai cock in my mouth.

Correct, in Western Australia👍

I know I lead a boring life (well some may think so) but I am happy with that, before the pandemic I travelled once a year mostly to Thailand but have been many times to the Philippines, Vietnam, Indonesia and Singapore. Unless something else untoward occurs I shall restart my travelling next year, starting with my Thailand lost time catch up trip but I have plans to return to the other above mentioned countries at some stage. In the mean time I shall plod along with my boring but happy life😁

With so much choice it's such a pity I wasn't into cock back then, Bangkok must have been a blast then.

I totally forgot about Porridge and yes Richard was a wonderful actor, a brilliant tv series, also to add to my list Auf Wiedersehen Pet.

That would be Are you being served. I can't stand reality tv shows and truly hate the way the networks here in Australia are flooding the airwaves with so much of it, the worst by far are those pathetic looking for love shows (Farmer wants a wife, The Real Love boat, The Bachelor etc etc... more like pathetic losers). As for my favourites, wow so many to choose from, MASH, Yes Minister and Yes Prime Minister, the earlier series of The Bill were good but I went off it towards the end when they started replacing the old characters and numerous cops turned crooks. Adding to the list, New Tricks, Wire in the blood, Blackadder, Mr Bean, I could name a lot more but too many to pick just a single favourite. Going for the oldest on my favourites list I would say Steptoe and son, followed by Dads army and On the Buses.

Will be interesting as I have this one on my must visit list

And I wonder if there was any "friendly" coercion put on Thailand by those other 2 to abstain?

I never had the pleasure or displeasure of visiting Super A but talking of sleaze, I am hoping that since Golden Cock has moved to Nature Boy that the sleaze element is still there? I would love to pay them a visit on my next trip for a bit of harmless fun in the bar.

That's why I always refer to Arena as my rough and ready massage and shag😂

Yes it is, currently operating on Patpong 1, Kings Castle and Kings Castle 1. Rumor has it that the Kings group has also bought the old Superstar gogo bar, that is just a rumor though and I haven't seen it confirmed anywhere

Kings Castle is part of the Kings group, they own and run the Girl gogo bars and also had a ladyboy bar, the actual Kings Castle is a girl gogo bar on Patpong 1. My memory has Kings Castle 1 and 2 and they used to have Kings corner. I think at one stage there was also a Kings massage with both girls and ladyboys

Would this be any help?

Oh well, I shall scratch that one off my must visit list for next year then.

Vietnam: "Can same-sex couples get married? No. Up until now, the law in Vietnam does not recognize same-sex marriages." It's a funny one (not haha funny), they lifted the ban on gay marriage but at the same time they don't recognize gay marriage.

I still get some hardcovers and books I buy here in Australia I get through Dymocks, most of my reading now is history books as I like to read about the past, I have read a lot on WW1 and find some of the books that cover certain units and the people quite interesting. I used to read a lot of novels and Tom Clancy was a favourite with Red Storm Rising still being one of my all time favourite books. Apart from Dasa books in Bangkok I also like to visit Kinokuniya book store in Siam Paragon for new books, that's a big store with a good range of books. For me I just can't read those ebooks, I much prefer to have a proper book in my hands, must be too old for ebooks.

Yes I still read a lot and will continue to do so, when in Bangkok I always pay a visit to Dasa bookshop on Sukhumvit rd which is a very short walk from Phrom Pong BTS. It's a second hand bookshop with a lot of and a big range of books at good prices.

I gave religion the slip when I was a kid and realized it wasn't for me, the only time I go anywhere near a church or chapel is for a family or very close friends funeral service. In the military if you didn't go to sunday religious service you ended up doing work detail, I did a lot of work details.

Porn and an overworked hand😂

You are so right there, I had been reading about the problems for quite a while and had always wondered if the problems were so obvious to everyone why weren't they shut down earlier? Then of course I think of the old saying "follow the money trail" and started to wonder just how high up the trail went and suspect it went very high.
