thanks God as you could be in trouble. Years ago it happened to my then coworker visiting Laos and he ended up bribing somebody 100 USD just to let him out. Good news is that soon with automating admission process stamps may be thing of the past for most of visitors.

It remains to be seen if that noble idea catches up and how market reacts to it. It may suck it up or do what my friend mentioned above did for his 5 weeks trip , instead of 5 weeks in Bangkok he converted it to 5 days in beginning and 2 at end of trip with the rest in between , whole 4 weeks , spend in Malaysia and Vietnam. Also it may work for less popular destinations within Thailand which may cash in on their much cheaper offerings

than it would be something like Tawan (The One ), not sure I'm looking for a copy. I hope it will be place with freely circulating guys who can be offered drink in exchange for company and tip as well as chance of discreetly negotiating possible meeting outside of bar business hours

if done right it may turn out to be "6-free " with tourists added to the mix highlighted

Fully agree. When they cleared Silom from stands many people commented that finally it will be easier to walk there to which my comment was that we have clear sidewalks at home so why bother to travel. I'm afraid that march to look like Singapore already started with hotel prices going up quite fast . Friend of mine who stays in Sukhumvit area and travels in second half in January told me that the same type of room in the same hotel in soi 5 he stay last year for the same dates is now 3/4 more expensive 105 vs 60 $

I don't have an intention to settle in Thailand permanently but will be waiting impatiently on you take on comparison of all three. ...................... as expat you have a right to spend your money while not looking nervously behind your back if you will be robbed

I will settle for all three , from left ( # 1) to the right

+1 urban jungle at it's best

one less competitor if we happen to be at the bar on the same day, he, he I'm still tempted, who cares about a bit of ink placed in wrong spot ? One of our members I trust gives him highest recommendation and there's another whom I also trust who is little bit more reserved with accolades. So I simply need to do scientific research to find who is right and why. Funny thing , higher praise is coming from post-tattoo period

I hope it will be similar format to what Dragon Koi is now and that of Space Hair bar in Phnom Penh , just with more hunky boys who are not outstretching hands and lowering briefs at every turn to ask for tips . I don't mind girls in audience as long as they behave and usually they do. If we need to compete with them for boys - let me tell everybody that from my experience , even with my grey hair , we still stand good chance.

that's very noble and I hope he succeeds , in fact I should say , I hope you both succeed

and that's the one of best looking if not outright best looking guy there. At least that was emiel's and mine opinion when we visited bar last month and asked each other who looks the best. So much about go-go boys making fortunes like some suspect they do

+1

definitely not all of them are latest I saw guy we are talking about on the scene month ago with neck tattoo and one of the latest clips shows him without, so it's highly unlikely he removed it ( although it wouldn't be bad idea as I don't mind tattoos but neck and face one are overboard)o

makes sense

not ones I read

from the walk . I suggested we eat something before checking latest stamps

even longest trip starts with first step

certainly I agree with what you said about victims and perpetrators. at times violent and sudden death seems fully deserved. Still if everybody meted own justice we would have an anarchy. Certainly Ceausescus deserved their fate and worked overtime to earn it, still posting pics of their final moments above is poor taste. In 1984 I was there and it was first and only time in my life when I was really hungry. At end of day we entered village , shop was opened and there was NOTHING there which cold be bought and eaten, not even single crumb of bread or piece of parsley. That was result of lunatic policy to pay off foreign debt at any cost and as fast as possible. But even with their atrocious rule, few years later their graves seemed to be well tended and attended so as always they were those who missed them. As for Honecker and non understanding to let him away , I have the same feeling about Kissinger who were celebrity till his death at 100 instead of dangling on some gallows decades earlier. One more point to allow everybody accused due process.

it did not work for Indira Gandhi

she is a daughter of another era approaching 70 now . Mind you outdated = not valid ANY LONGER so I don't think she made a story

three - and Latakia naval base. there's also 4th component we people of the global North seem to omit , certainly misunderstand and underestimate - islamic fanaticism of Middle East. Part of hate toward Asads was because they were Alevites , considered heretics within heretics by Sunni majority. all Syria tragedy for me boils down to fact that some leaders don't know when to step down thinking they are impossible to substitute nation saviours. Then suddenly they are refugees if not worse and their graves are burned to the ground. Balding leader of certain country between Norway and Alaska should consider

I get it very well. My Argentinian neighbour explained to me difference in social status of both group of fans. Her family was River Plata and almost disown her when she started dating Boca Juniors fan

and rich

no wonder they dance so energetically. I'm curios who 4th guy was
