and wondering where all this money went last night......
-
-
Old notes will be accepted for few years , don't worry. Only reason small shop keeper will not accept old note is that he may not have enough change if you but coke for 18 baht and pay with 500. When travelling I have habit of spending local money to the last penny and if still have some change left I either drop it at charity box at the airport or give to some passing floor sweeper. USD and Euro exempted from this rule as those are pretty universal currencies.

Resurrecting this old thread as I found it both entertaining and useful. I for one find wallets to bulky, never use it to carry money, neither at home nor when travelling .Prefer to keep money loose between various pockets in the shirt and trousers . In LOS I have system what and how much belongs to what pocket, easy to control spending and shrinkage is any. Always try to have lots of small bills / 20 and 50 in the left pocket, 100 in the right one, no more than 7 bills / to avoid problems with wrong change given , not to mention having handy notes to be stuffed in boys undies to get some feeling. As for discussion about UK bills one needs to add to confusion that Isle of Man and both Jersey and Guernsey of Channel Island have their own notes circulated.

"yes , we can" like Barack Obama used to say but only for a few minutes after posting

after you post "edit" button appears next to 'multi quote' button which enables you to deleted text , not a post itself but is active only few minutes , then disappears. Other option is to contact moderator using 'report' button and ask him to remove yours or anybody else' post.

Hi is still handsome,face and body , It's just botched or overdone injection which screwed him up although since he still works may be there are takers or curio collectors who are offing him. Unfortunately he is not only one in the business deformed that way

congratulations ! Lucky devil you !

even in Pattaya one can easily spend an afternoon at Sanctuary of Truth and whole day at NomNooch Tropical gardens. In Bangkok first day should be started with taking boat from Saphan Taksin BTS to the Grand Palace. Trip to Thonburi canals can be easily arranged at the pier over there. Grand Palace ticked gives free admission to Vinamek Palace and Anantha Trone Hall within 7 days. Snake farm with 2 shows and Wat Hualampong are walking distance from soi Twilight. Aytthaya and Muang Boran are making great day trip destinations from Bangkok

My tip: when taking taxi always take one which is moving, don't take ones standing at the curb, chances are they will overcharge you. During day use BTS / MRT whenever posiible because of traffic congestion. Forget about tuk-tuk unless you are curious and want to sample it.

for me up to 8 hours , after that I suffer silently no matter comfort level, "end is near" thought being my consolation
-
I hope one with silicone deformed monster was missing from that part
-
excellent point, is not important who posts but what is posted. We should be nice to new posters, I know about at least three who silenced themselves here and stop posting because they felt their posts were unfairly commented on.

Read carefully what biguyby said : "fat old farang" you can't be both at once, are you? as for 9 inches, are you sure it is not 10 ?
-
I like your way of thinking
-
as long as it helps to keep prices low. Going to Bangkok I can suffer any indignities other than delayed flight , return flight to slavery is where problems start showing and depression kicks in me
-
what about short impressions from your trip?
-
Because plenty of excellent connections from Bangkok all SE Asia countries can be taken as a side trip. Cambodia would be my first choice but you can do as well with Myanmar, Vietnam & Laos. It's only 4 hr flight to Bali and even to Paro in Bhutan you can get non-stop from Bangkok. In fact my first 8 trips to Thailand were combination with some other country in the region. Depending of your country of residence make sure you survey Visa situation, not every country needs visa , on another hand you may not be able to obtain visa on arrival and must arrange for it in advance. If you are dual national holding two passports you may play visa games as you may find that there's price difference or even visa free access for one nationality but not other one. Which country you chose depends on your preferences. If you looking for beaches Laos is not your option obviously. Common denominator for most of those countries is that they are affordable.

do you remember how much they are charging for short time room?
-
That the good news ! One more point for the bar I consider the best in LOS. Although for me pretty academic as I like to stay in LE Cafe Royale, whole 20 seconds walk from that bar
-
That was my whole point, whole pleasure of travelling is that traveller finds himself in completely unknown place not knowing what to expect. That's the thrill we all felt probably when we found soi Twilight and enter it for first time. If everything is planned, surveyed, booked and prepaid traveller becomes tourist of 'If it's Tuesday it must be Belgium" variety.

I can attest to it. I never considered Nantra Silom and Tarntawan hotels until I read reviews on this very forum. Also learned about S52 massage here as well as Pattaya vans from the Victory Monument.

you will hire guide to show you around. He will show you places where you can hire your consolation as well. Or you want to have sex with guide? I doubt there's such a site with both offers in the same breath as we are talking different attributes. Knowledgeable and fun to be with in ordinary sense guide may not taste, sexy boy you are lusting for may have problem navigate Suriwong from Silom .
-
if you still there try Magnolia as well, better appointed that those two. you probably missed whole Boyztown massage offer - in none of the three places there's danger of seeing too young or too effeminate. I'm curious why not having shower in the room bothers you - security, cleanliness or you just like gymnastics in the shower with the boy and are not keen of doing it in semi-public space? Anyways with Royal House and Narcissus you picked up very well, always hunks at Royal, always fun at Narcissus

I know you are trying to help but for cheapskates like me very thought of spending money on business class would cause sleep deprivation. I rather suffer cattle class sleepless indignities for half of that price and use money saved this way to waste on massages, drinks, off fees and boy's tips. At end of day I believe I have more fun laying flat with Tawan hunk than alone in business class, but that's me ,an idiot who considers Tarntawan ultimate luxury.
