While on the subject, for the newbies, samoke means suck as in cock sucker.

It means masturbation/jerk off/ wank.

Eden Bar reopened last night.

I like being bored.

To my knowledge, the owner is a farang and rarely seen and rarely there. But who really knows? Gone/Gon told me that Eden is his bar.

A friend recently was with some African lads from Madagascar and enjoyed their company a great deal. Found them on Romeo.

I am not quite sure who does run Eden Bar. The manage is Gone; there are also a couple of other lads who work there. Gone is quite popular with the customers.

Both Eden and Euro Bars were closed tonight apparently due to a flooding (water) from units above them. Both bars seemed to be doing a clean up and should be open shortly, I hope.

There is a new sauna in Pattaya! I noticed it as I was riding on Third Rd somewhere in vicinity of Tony's Gym coming from Jomtien. My guess is it is a straight sauna, but still, a sauna. Maybe it has been there and I never noticed it before?

z909, the plan you propose is logical. What you propose is what I would also suggest. Just don't burn your bridges to home until you are sure Thailand is the place for you.

I retired 28 years ago and am still "active". Spent the last 19 years visiting Thailand on and off and the last 3 or so years as a permanent fixture in Thailand with a once a year visit back home. And as paborn says, "think long and hard" was, as always, the best advice.

z909, after 4,565 posts you should know more about Thailand than most others.

I just spoke with a Thai friend whose sister works at Intercontinental . My friend said it was a good hotel but expensive.

vinapu, I do believe the accommodations at Cha,Cha,Cha are for a hostel, not a brothel.

Although I understand the meaning of sissies I do find it to be a derogatory and offensive term in referring to someone.

What is good about having police raid these places? I can't think of any reason just because they are not Thais.

You may be sure, but not so sure about others being sure.

At Winner Bar most, but not all, the dancers are gay. And Nice mostly straight. Up to You as the Thais say.

I believe they are just trying to get an accurate order. Often times the waiter stands around for a long time while customers try to decide what to order.

paborn, you will never know what you are missing! Don't let tales you read on the forums dissuade you from enjoying yourself.

So very true, paborn.

Nothing wrong with Hornet and Grindr except you can't get a decent drink there.

No I don't know of any people who are cheap enough to ever tip, no matter what, in the USA. Thailand is different. I assumed that this thread was about tipping in bars, etc, and not sex tipping?

The Meiji High Protein Whey, 25 g cost about 50 Baht.

I know some Americans that are slavish to tipping. Not only do they tip 20%, they tip on top of the tax on the food and they never question the level of service.
