Last night I took off a different man from Screwboys for long time and he was excellent, he stayed until the agreed time, and I had a good time. Despite the issues I've mentioned the bar is seducing me away from Freshboys, where I usually go. Tonight is my last night in Thailand and I will do a tour of Red Dragon bar, Freshboys and Screwboys to say goodbye. I may even pop in to Dreamboys which has more twinks than it used to have.

I thought soi Thainiya is to provide shortcut from Sala Daeng BTS station to Raya and Moonlight

Does any SANE person really listen to what Trump says anymore ?. If you saw his E.Jean Carrol deposition, it was totally bonkers and embarrassing, and gave us all a CLEAR picture of how he sees himself and his entitlements. If Fani Willis and Jack Smith dont have enough evidence by now, most of it coming directly from Trump himself, then neither one of them really intends to Indict him. This all should have been done 2 years ago, and the longer it takes the less likely it will happen.

I stayed in the hotel a couple of times pre-Covid for I think for 4/5 days each trip. It’s situated about 300m downhill in a side soi off Thrapraya Road which connects Pattaya and Jomtien. Transport is rather an issue but I had a rented motor scooter which overcame any difficulties. They had a Tuk Tuk which was sometimes available for a lift uphill to the main road. The distance to the Jomtien Complex is rather shorter than to Boyztown so I didn’t find it a problem to walk. At night it was sometimes difficult to stop a baht bus going to Pattaya on the main road as they were often full of passengers. it’s a while ago but my memory has no recollection of anything negative about my rooms and for breakfast sitting by the pool was rather pleasant. In the evenings I remember the restaurent food being pretty good. it is of course a gay hotel and I didn’t see any female guests. I usually had a boy with me overnight. I had to get one of the staff to explain on two occasions to boys from Grindr how to find the place. Guests of course get admission to the sauna and spa (including the dark maze) which opens about 4pm, but I was able to use the small pool with boyfriends during the day.

From National News Bureau of Thailand Revenue Dept Dismisses Rumors of Departure Tax Reintroduction BANGKOK (NNT) - The Revenue Department has dismissed rumors circulating on social media that it is planning to reintroduce a departure tax for Thais and foreign residents leaving the country. The tax, initially imposed in 1983, was scrapped in 1991. However, the constitution requires the department to assess the suitability of old executive decrees, including the departure tax. According to Winit Wisetsuwannaphum, the department’s deputy director-general, the government has no intention of reinstating the tax. He noted that the department conducted a survey on the tax from May 3-17 on its website, www.rd.go.th, to comply with constitutional requirements. However, some members of the public saw the survey and became extremely concerned, thinking that the tax was making a comeback. Winit also revealed that the department would conduct similar surveys on inheritance and petroleum income taxes by the end of next year. The purpose of the surveys is to assess public opinion on executive decrees scrapped by past administrations.

Go to Brasil

I stayed at the Tarntawan for a week last month before changing to the Raya. (after reading Vinapu's recommendation) I didn't think it had been in any way refurbished - it seemed a little tired, that's all. I like the way they hold the visitors' ID cards. Also, the staff is very friendly and they still remembered me! The Raya was so much nicer. Everything there is new and the room is big. If you meet your guy downstairs you can go straight up to your room without having to go past the reception. As I've known the guy I was with every night for a number of years, I didn't need him to register with reception, but if I were offing a new guy I would want him to be registered.

2028 B.C. I gather?

its well known and confirmed by science that contributing to this forum increases testosterone level so after returning here Olddaddy should be ok

Until, of course, they're not young anymore. 🙂

Starting with this newly uploaded post Saigon in the heat of April, there will be a series of reviews of five massage places in Saigon (Ho Chi MInh City) on my blog. It may take a few days for each of the rest of the posts to come up because I am still putting finishing touches onto them, in between catching up on work. It was a rather last-minute escapade. I found myself with a relatively free week and decided I would use it "productively". Since it had been at least 10 years since my last visit to Saigon, it was time to re-acquaint myself with this city.

Tonight another bar opens in the original Balcony Terrace bar(opposite Balcony and next to Circus), not to be confused with the terrace area next to that, now occupied by Jupiter. Since Balcony sold it, there have been several short lived attempts open something. Actually the enduring thing, over the years, there throughout all of the various owners has been VAN TATOO occupying the second level. The bar is being run by the ex barman from 4Sports and his wife (something in soi Thaniya!) It is called 'Infinity'. It's not clear what sort of bar this will be but fears are that Japanese looking Thai ladies will be there to entice Japanese men (isn't that what soi Thaniya's for?).

From CNBC The cybersecurity world faces new threats beyond targeted ransomware attacks, according to experts at the recent RSA cybersecurity industry conference in San Francisco. Joe McMann, head of cybersecurity services at Binary Defense, a cybersecurity solutions provider, said the new battleground is data extortion and companies need to shift gears to face the threat. Traditionally, ransomware attackers encrypt or delete proprietary data of organizations and ask for ransom before reverting the attack. McMann said hackers are now focusing on stealing customer or employee data and then threatening to leak it publicly. “By naming, shaming, threatening reputational impact, they force the hands of their targets,” McMann said. The International Data Corporation predicts firms will spend over $219 billion on cybersecurity this year, and McMann said cybercriminals constantly evolve their exploitations. Hackers shifted tactics after ransomware attacks brought an unwelcome level of visibility by law enforcement and governments, and cybersecurity professionals became adept at solving decryption. Instead of paralyzing hospitals and pipelines, he said criminals changed gears to collect data and threaten companies with customer dissatisfaction and public outcry. At the end of March, OpenAI documented a data leak in an open-source data provider that made it possible to see personal AI chat histories, payment information, and addresses. The team patched the leak in hours, but McMann said once data is out there, hackers can use it.

My friend from Nature Boy told me the Queen Club would be opening this month.

Just bumping up this topic which has lain dormant for months. Out of idle curiosity, does anyone have any new information about Queen Club, (formerly known as New Twilight)? When I saw that the facebook profile (https://www.facebook.com/newtwilightmanclub/) hadn't had any updates since November last year, I thought maybe it's gone defunct, but then I found a new profile (https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090737895395) - but not much better. Hardly any content and nothing since March 9.

Some of us have jobs, alas.

And 4 years ago a place to take Vietnamese men from Screwboys to eat outside there after midnight but, sadly, the late night eateries seem to have been ended by Covid.

Don't be so modest --- many other nationalities too.

I guess back then, sex with minor is legal?

I talked to this African guy last year: https://twitter.com/top_stallion?s=20. I asked him if he wanted to join me and one of my Thai fwb in action. I was a bit surprised when he told me he was a mb. I like the videos on his Twitter profile, though I don't think the bottoms are his actual customers, as they are all young twinks who I would say don't have the need to pay. Didn't ask about rates, as I don't really do transactional sex, but if he is your type shoot him a message on line. He replied pretty fast.

I meant 2018😂I knew you would pick that up 😂

Very true (what you've said). The (supposed) thrill of meeting someone you are unlikely to meet otherwise and having sex in public place with some danger added ... is a lure for many gay men. When I lived in Mexico City it wasn't uncommon, before the introduction of social media, cruising apps, etc., to walk into one of the men's rooms of the many Sanborn's chain of restaurants and encounter, in the open, guys engaged in blowjobs. A friend of mine in Chicago, a church pastor, would cruise public park bushes in the middle of the night and suck off and get fucked by guys looking for money to buy drugs. Myself? When I worked in Mexico City I had a regular consulting appointment at 8 a.m. several days a week and on the way to work I would stop in one of the Sanborn's men's room near to where the appointment was ... and, frequently, a student in an expensive nearby high school would blow me and sometimes I'd fuck him. He in his school blazer and slacks and me in a suit and tie. Back to Chicago: before the social / dating apps I would cruise the 'bushes' in Lincoln Park on the lakefront 10 p.m. to 4 a.m. if I hadn't gone to the baths. Scores of guys were there when the bars closed and the sex was good. We were all grunting like pigs. Every once and a while several police cars would show-up with lights flashing, bullhorns in hand, telling guys to get out - and some guys jumped in the water or let the police lead them out. Me, I knew the police were not going to get into the bushes so I stayed put. At the time I held a very good job and I could have lost it all if arrested for being caught like that. When we're young many of us throw caution to the wind. As I've gotten older, much older, I don't often take risks like that. But, never say "never."

and rightly so, fully deserved. One wouldn't like to be hit by flying refrigerator while admiring soi Bukhao ladies or even looking for money exchange

I presume those are heat index or "feels like" temps, not actual air temps

'Can't see that the numbers cited can possibly be correct. I googled & the high temp in BKK was 39° C on Sunday. Yes, that's really hot but I don't see the point of claiming it's much worse than it really is.

expensive hobby. travelling that far to pee

I know that some guys have a special interest in that sort of cruising - "cottaging" we call it here in the UK- but why would you want to? With the apps full of willing guys of all ages, sizes and preferences making themselves available, surely a bed in a hotel , with a shower before and after, as well as privacy and a locked door, is infinitely preferable? You should also remember that your activity may lead to public humiliation and even police trouble.

Pazubane, thx for sharing your GREAT reports! With your permission I take exception to your attitude toward after-sex O. Demanding more than agreed is one of the worst things a garoto can do. Indulging him ensures perpetuation. )-:

tell me something I don't know

after very busy spring finally I had a chance to read your posts about Bali in one go today and will treat myself with Saigon tomorrow, very thank you !

makes sense , 3pm in Bangkok equates with 3 am in Florida, bit early for breakfast but as we see, doable

It's now moved from Dongtan. Down the beach to Soi 12 area. Hundreds and hundreds every night. They all go after work, but bring friends who are not bar boys. Lot of fresh faces around. Just turn up with a bottle of something and you will soon be in heaven.

I'd go for it, when returning from Laos last Nov border agent stamping me into Thailand was extremely hunky and could give Jupiter, Tawan or Moonlight boys run for their money

while I can see your point , I for one like present better than past for simple reason. No amount of wailing about glorious past will bring us there and we wont be 18 not even 46 ever again. On top of it , still more fun is to be had in both Bangkok and Pattaya than I can digest even during month long vacations. We all miss old days but missing them leads us nowhere and may even induce indigestion and with that melancholy and finally bitterness so better is to look for full half of glass or bar

Maybe they should throw one ST in at the departure with a “customs/border agent” of your choose 😜

A few years ago in 202, I was in the locker area and overheard 2 guys talking and they sounded like Americans. It was nice to hear a familiar language after being in Brazil for a few weeks. So I asked them if they are from the States. "We are from NYC and this place sucks. There are no boys, only men here". A few minutes later, I saw them talking to the youngest-looking GP in the house. My point is, nobody knows what you deemed 'sexy' and from your history, you never follow up with your questions thread. Since you know about 202 and 117, why not source them out yourself after your first visit? PS: Your username sounds like someone who likes beer.

About 15 years ago young guys would gather near the main entrance after it closed, looking for customers. That's when you could also find at least a dozen more on Rama IV between Silom and Surawong. I often walk the park in the evening and it doesn't strike me as particularly cruisy. Lots of serious joggers and families. The men who use the outdoor weightlifting area aren't posing and preening like it was some kind of health club with the latest machines. They're pushing iron the old-fashioned way. Doesn't mean you still can't catch an eye. It is, after all, still part of the wonderful city of Bangkok.

I met a Gigolo in Pereira who was marketing in Grindr. 29 y, cute and wild combined, originally from Santander area. He does Chaturbate and few other webcams, models and takes acting classes. 2-2,5 hours in a motel was 250 cop, which included tip. He was great, I suspect he works mostly with ladies or is just a talent, since he took much better care of me, than onlyfans 23 y young fit medellin guy or 28 y muscled bogota guy/insta addict. They both were so self centric and own body focused! Maybe they are just young and not experienced. I negotiate with him now the overnight. Its a bit dissapointing from the gay movement perspective that bi/hetero gigolo provides best sexual experience 😀. He had some money issues with the web platforms so he is not working currently. But damn, he is a natural sex bomb, but staying humble and smart. The motel was fun as well, drive-in without any staff contact, doors are opened remote, you are told number of the entrance (there are ca 30 rooms!), you drive near your number (taxi, uber), doors are opened and you drive into “garage”, then leave the car and enter the suite, car leaves, all doors are closed, no windows. When leaving, same routine vice versa. Money is passed through the blind box. You can leave only when bill is paid and your transport has entered to the garage. Cannot walk around - highest level of privacy I have ever seen. Clean, nice bed, shower, jacuzzy (which we used minimal because time is sex, not pool). Cheapest suite which is absolutely sufficient - 5 hours 89 COP. Minibar and food if you wish. 4 km from Pereira. Hotel Amasis, check the web.

I see Apollo spa is getting a little racier with their Line photos. They have a couple of former (or maybe still current) Zoo Spa boys on their roster. Apparently they are at Bearing BTS Line ID @apollo_massage and while I mentioned it, Zoo's photos and videos are always very alluring, but getting the boys out of their uniform in person is quite expensive. If you like skinny, toned gorgeous boys it's hard to resist. Line: @zoospaonsen Twitter: @Superboyzoo

pick up boy you like and then you will like his size , whatever it is

A quick update from the departure lounge in Cairo Airport. A successful trip. I met up with a lot of my regular Egyptian f-buddies, and a good time was had. Juggling them was sometimes difficult! I did open Grindr and I did successfully meet a three outstanding men. One is a 24 year old serving is last days of National Service in the army. We chatted, exchanged pics, then determined he was on duty very near to where I was staying in Zamalek, so I walked over on a hot afternoon to meet him. I stayed chatting with him for about thirty minutes, and had an erection the whole time, and he did to. We couldn't do much, it was in the street, but we did manage a brief kiss and I touched his cock. He was off the next day, so he shot round the second he got permission. Stripped naked, his body was taut and lean, with a lovely amount of hair. And like all 24 year olds, he fucked like a rabbit. Number 2 was a 19 year old Medical Student from Alexandria; he had that handsome, vacant look that male models have. He was less my type, but he was over 6 feet in hight, very lean body, and again, fucked like a rabbit fed only on viagra. He is a lovely man from a very good family (all doctors). He travelled from Alexandria to Cairo specifically to meet me. Twice. Number 3 was a very dark man from Luxor, 28 and ripped like you wouldn't believe. He didn't speak a word of English, and after a few exchanges of words and pics he indicated payment was required. I told him that I do not pay for sex, so he left me alone... only to come back two days later to say he wanted sex with me, without payment. He was, truthfully, one of the thickest and biggest cocks I have ever had. I measured it and it was a genuine 25cm/9". His stamina was amazing - he'd cum, but be up again and trying to put it back in within 5 minutes. I had to beg for mercy. The amazing thing about him was that he kept coming back. I'd go off to the office, to find him waiting for me in the cafe next to my apartment when I returned. He never once asked for money, and I never gave it. I obviously got the usual number of flakes and men I don't fancy on Grindr. I also came up with a new, fun, strategy for dealing with the inevitable Top Cash profiles - I would reply that I was Bottom Cash. That flummoxed them, especially when I quoted a price three times theirs. Grindr does now come with a big, ugly message about police actively using Grindr to catch and arrest people, but I think they leave foreigners alone as it is too much hassle. It also means foreigners are rich pickings, as we are seen as safe. Just to reiterate, I do not see the need to ever pay for sex in Cairo. I'm no Adonis, I am a 54 year old with middle-aged spread, and I absolutely have no problem getting hot, desirable men who desire me. Even walking in the street, or in the market, I was cruised constantly, just like in previous trips. Even the guy behind the counter at the supermarket told me he "had the best meat in Cairo, I should definitely put it in my mouth" I cannot wait to go back in September.

I don't know. What I do know is that Dreamboys, Pattaya, circa 2005, was the meeting-place for a number of guys who established successful LTRs. Previously, I said I had met three but we met another couple, an American ex-pat living in Jomtien and his ex-Dreamboys dancer only last month. I was also given the names of others from posts in Facebook etc. As for "love", I wouldn't presume to be able to offer an answer but would point -out that, for centuries, traditional , straight marriages have been made for many different reasons, not all of which conform with romantic notions of love.

It all depends so much on the circumstances and the individuals. If you only believe in renting then you are unlikely to ever have a partner in life, and maybe you never wanted one. On the other hand you are more likely to keep your bank balance to spend on yourself. However I don't think it is fair to categorise Thais as somehow inherently dishonest in relationships. I can offhand think of at least twelve Thai/Farang couples who have been together for at least ten years, some based in Thailand and some in Europe. I actually can't think of a serious thai farang couple who broke up. As far as I have observed in these couples I think that Thai partners are especially thoughtful, tolerant and caring. The vast majority of the couples originally met in Thailand, so if the farangs had been applying the "if you want love in Thailand rent it" guideline they would not now be enjoying many years of happy partnered lives. In fact the saddest farang friend that I have is wealthy and lonely having spent most of his time in Thailand treating his sex partners as paid employees, but is now looking enviously at those friends with loving Thai partners. Different strokes for different folks.

Of course, some falang visitors are easily seduced by their first encounters with beautiful Thai guys; I certainly was. And I've no doubt that some, overwhelmed and desperate for a partner, speak too soon of "love." Nevertheless, I'd suggest that most of us who are now happily in such relationships don't come into this category. It's probable that more, like me, were old hands at the game before meeting the right guy. And that the Thais, similarly, were not straight off an Isaan farm but had some experience of that "game." Genuine relationships are less likely to develop after a night or two of unbridled passion than over a period of time. I can understand why some are cynical. There are tourists who have been taken for a ride and have ended -up disappointed. Perhaps many. Equally, there are Thais whose falang boyfriends have been only too happy to find a younger guy when it suits them, destroying their hopes for a secure future . But I stand by my original post....and I'm echoing another forum member when I say this; a genuine relationship, despite difference in age, culture , religion and race can endure and flourish over decades, and prove to be (and here I quote) one of the best things that have happened in that person's life.

From The Nation The Revenue Department is conducting a public hearing on the Royal Decree to evaluate the efficiency of the 1983 Overseas Travel Tax. The public hearing kicked off on Wednesday and will wrap up on May 17, the department said on Friday. The decree mandates that all travellers, including Thai nationals and foreign expats, pay a tax every time they leave the country. Those travelling by air will be subject to a 1,000 baht tax, while those travelling by sea or land will be subject to 500 baht. The department said this decree had been issued to prevent an excessive outflow of Thai currency, preserve the country’s balance of payment and increase state revenue. The tax does not apply to transport and logistics operators, flight crew, holders of border passes, monks and religious pilgrims, consular and embassy officials and their families, workers with tax exemption permits issued by the Labour Ministry, and transit passengers who spend no more than 48 hours in the country. Violators can face up to three months in prison and/or 6,000 baht in fines.
