If your not going well financially then it's best to say NO !

They are still going to go with you on the agreed $$ anyway 

Don't take this the wrong way but it sounds like your  a person who can't say NO when you see some young Asian lad with a G string👦 on and a tight ass with a big set of balls 🏀 🏀🍆

I am soft but I do say no a lot too; it has to be done in these bars.

Yes I agree we have to learn to say no in bars. Once we form a reputation as a generous tipper, the guys in the bars will always come at us.

When I checked in, they also didn't highlight that visitors have to provide ID unlike De Arni where I was staying just before switching to the Raya during the same trip. 

It was not my experience when I was there at DeArni year ago. They did not bother neither me nor my night companion so it may depend of an actual receptionist

You weren't correct, that's all I can say.

Last night was the best so far, though very understated. I took off, just to drink, a Cambodian man from Dream Boys who I know from the past. Some 18 months ago I took him to Pattaya and to Phnom Penh for 3 nights in each place. He had never been on a plane and never been to his capital city. Please do not tell the men that once I have had a few drinks, if they tell me they have never been on a plane, I am liable to say: 'let's go!' The two men I have done that with so far read every word of the safety card. It was nice to play pool with him but the night was about to get better. I popped in to Freshboys at 22.45 to see the men, who are briefly on stage around that time in an interval in the show. Then to Goodboys where I took off a Myanmar man for short time. He was so good at kissing that it was 10am before he left and he seemed pleased with his tip. It made me realise again that I can be completely happy with kissing and cuddling for ages and I should welcome this change rather than think I have to perform 'sex' every time. Both of us having an erection is reinforcing but I don't need an orgasm very often. This may seem odd to you younger ones but it's my reality now.

I just arrived in Jomtien so I will be looking for men who like kissing.

I think he was just doing his job by highlighting that clause and emphasise that there is no extra charge for joiner. That night when I bought someone back the same guy at the counter didn't ask for ID or on other nights 🤭

For my first night in Jomtien I was still tired from spending so much of the previous night kissing the Myanmar lad. But I managed beers in 3 bars. At the first one the waiter swiftly winkled a boy drink out of me and offered to fuck me without a condom. I have finished my remaining prep so this is not going to happen. I had a walk through the complex and was sad to see 4t bar shut, though I had read the owner was not continuing the lease. And I know a lad who worked there so will have to find out if he has got a new job. The complex is looking quiet and in need of customers. On to M Bar, where I caught their 10pm show, which the lads do really well for a modest bar. The Mamasan is always welcoming. Over to Sunee Bar, where I bought a shirtless bar lad a drink. Messaged a different MB from Myanmar who I hope to see while I am here. Grindr is busy but not clicked with anyone yet.

In a bar a few nights ago I had just bought a Lao man, who I've known for years, a drink when the police arrived and arrested all the foreign workers, about 5 of 7 staff. I'm not saying where as talking about a business losing most of the staff might count as a negative review. That would be defamation and breaking the computer crimes act, as one guy found when he posted a negative review of a Thai hotel, the hotel complained and he spent 2 nights in prison. The hotel dropped the charges or it would have been more. The police took a photo of my bill where I'd bought the man a drink. Happily I was not arrested for conspiring to cause a Lao man to work but there's time yet, if going to bed together is work. The man has not replied to my message so it's not looking good. 

I haven't much to report, otherwise. I have seen some money boys, been stood up by one MB twice (1. sleeping 2. working; am I crazy for giving them a second chance? Yes.), seen old friends, played pool, watched the show at Best Bar and Gus Bar, noted that the chairs and umbrellas on Dongtan beach are closed on Wednesdays and enjoyed meals at the Pirate Cafe and Cheap Charlies.

thanks for all of the updates, @zoomomancs! 

It's fun reading of your adventures!

I've always had an interest in the law. When I have had arguments with banks in the past I tell them that my father is a solicitor. This is a naughty lie, though it did help to get £100 out of one bank. Indeed my father was a solicitor but he died 72 years ago. He smoked a lot and had a heart attack at the age of 37 so I have no memory of him. 

Today I get a taxi back to Bangkok. Thoughts of travel to new places (Khon Kaen??) have been overtaken by the fact that two of my favourite men are in Bangkok, one Vietnamese, one from Myanmar. Both are good at kissing. I doubt Khon Kaen can compete.

I agree! If there is someone I like, I rather stay and be with him than go visiting somewhere else. Have fun back in Bangkok!

Or take one of those guys to Khon Kaen with you.

I have taken men away a few times. It can be fun, though expensive, as I usually pay them 4000bt a day, and the bar wants the off fee, plus travel and expenses. I once brought 2 men to Pattaya but ended that after one of them ordered a 6500bt lunch for three of us while I was at the atm. A happier memory is taking two young Vietnamese men from Bangkok to Pattaya for one night and their smiles as the taxi accelerated on the highway and they realised they really were going to the seaside.

With your permission, a side question:

Is going by bus from bkk to the seaside so expensive, that regular guys cannot afford it by themselves?

Well one guy was working massage at BBB Inn, which had a very strict boss, so getting the time off would be an issue, and the other was freelancing and never had any money. I think these days, in high season, they could find the money for the bus, though it's not that attractive to do it for the day. My sense with the Vietnamese guys is that going for a little 'holiday', like one night in Pattaya, isn't in their list of priorities, even when they have money. Sending money to their family, debts, rent, visa runs, sickness costs, smoking, hanging out with their mates, parties, new clothes, all come first.

Yes, I agree. Many of them in fact do not like the sun in Pattaya! Not good for skin!

I've got lazier about visiting other towns in Thailand over the years, often settling for Bangkok and Pattaya, so I booked a flight to Khon Kaen for 3 nights. I always like places in Isaan. It's more low rise and spread out than I expected so I've used Bolt a lot to get around. Always prompt and efficient, except when I got caught in a thunderstorm yesterday at rush hour teatime and the app said a 19 minute wait so I started walking back. I stayed at the Romantic Hotel for about £16 a night so I don't know how it's making any money. Tuesday night I went to the Tawandang, which, as many of you will know, is a big pub/club with tables and an Isaan music/dancing show. I walked the 2km back to the hotel at midnight, occasionally fending off guard dogs. I didn't expect much re men and found Hornet much busier than Grindr here. But it was on Grindr that I found a 21 year old university student who was looking for extra income and we met up Wednesday night for a long chat in a music pub and a session in bed back in my room.

Yah I like your idea of going out of BKK with a guy or guys. I've not done it yet but am trying to shortlist a guy I like for it. Gotta try him for 24hrs first before knowing if this be a workable future arrangement.

I have found it fun but my experience is many young men sleep a lot too so agreeing on the same time cycle can be an issue. If we want to start the day at 8am and the guy thinks 4pm is the right time to get out of bed we're not on the same page.

As I painfully discovered on curent trip traveling companion, even if well rehearsed before, may turn bit and that's very big BIT, disappointing.

A generous offer but I warn you I do need to be talked to and not too much sleeping please.

Good luck with finding a guy who starts the day at 8am! Some guys only sleep at 8am!
