I am well aware that this is a trend that is conquering the World, alas.

I had this experience in a few places, notably the 1000 Kip notes of Laos.  Still and all they irritated me less than the shiny plastic fivers of London that feel as if they are poised to give you a paper cut every time you put your in your pocket.

Day 7 - New Is Fun My guy left around 11 or so. His answer to my proposal is a maybe, and will let me know if its possible. I didnt have my hope's high as he cant do overnight anymore, so a trip, is practically multiple overnight, so im not sure if he can join me. We did talked about potential location if he join me, and the possible duration and tips expectation, so all its left is for him to confirm if he is joining me or not, so i can proceed with booking. I did tell him that he needs to make decision fast since I need to book flights and hotel early to avoid things being too expensive, or worse, sold out.  Took nap and woke up quite late around 3pm, and went to prime to check if i can get a slot in by walk in. Just when my motorsai took off, rain starts pouring. Luckily, only my head were wet, the rest of my body survived. Reached Prime and entered the counter area and saw 3 ladies queuing for massage, at Prime... Its a rarity indeed but I do believe they have some female masseurs, or maybe the ladies wanted male masseurs as well.  When its my turn, asked if they have slots for oil massage, and said i need to wait about 1 hour, then I asked if i can get foot massage for that 1 hour, and they do have massage chair available. So day time program concluded with 3 hour massage, 1 hour foot, and 2 hour body. Prime has limit of 2 hour per masseur so Ill have diff guy doing my foot and body. Went back to hotel for a bit before heading to G for dinner plan with 4 other members at 7.30pm, which is the latest time we are allowed to reserve a table at G. Great table outdoor, perfect for people watching. Food, as always, was great. Tonight, we will visit dreamboys for a birthday celebration of one of the forum member, and another forum member booked a table and a bottle service for the night.  Fun night in the bar indeed. 4 of us, 3 boys i believed join us at our table. At one point, cake were brought in for the birthday celebration. I stayed until im sure that no one from here will go back with me, and made my way to freshboy past midnight. Plenty of guys still around, as the guys made it back to the stage for the last round before bar close. Called a guy ive taken before, and before the drink comes, he told me he cant do long time tonight, saved me a drink. Back to the drawing board now im scanning the stage for next candidate. Mamasan who usually leave me alone, come to me asking if im taking anyone, perhaps because the bar is about to close. I told her the number and tell her i wanted overnight until breakfast and she check with the guy and update to me if they are willing to go long time or not. First guy, no, until 5am only. Second guy, also no. But my third guy says yes. Paid off fee and off we go for supper at foodland with forum member. One of the rare occasion where mamasan at freshboy actually being helpful lol. Also booked the guy who saved me from buying him a drink because he cant do long time tonight, for tomorrow night. Such behavior definitely deserves a reward. Another successful night, great guy, and left after breakfast. 

Thanks, guys, for all your advice, suggestions and insight. I will monitor the prices regularly. If I find price of a room that is acceptable, I will book it. I am also mindful of my guy. My guy is thrifty. He doesn't like it when I spend too much money. But it's our 10th anniversary of knowing each other so that's why I want it to be special. 🥰🥰🥰

You've never had the pleasure of handling filthy greasy well-used small-denomination banknotes from somewhere with an exchange rate of several thousand to the  dollar/pound/euro? At least plastic notes are washable.
