Nit sure I know MK?

Perhaps depends on price?

Hopefully, I will be in the air when New Year comes in, landing in Bangkok 4pm on the 1st!!

Ideal temperatures for us Europeans!

Not always a good thing!

Logical positivism, eh!

Another W C Fields quote, ' I cook with wine, sometimes I even add it to the food!' I have that quote on one of my aprons in the kitchen!

As W C Fields once observed, ' I don't drink water, fish fuck in it!'

Understood, thanks.

Thanks for info.

I often give it physically to the cleaner, if we coincide, so to speak. Establishes a slight bond.

Thanks! I'm only there 3 days, so condo not really on.

I received the same advice!

True. I just enjoy wandering around the streets having a beer etc. not so easy in Brazil, but I was ok in Copacabana, if I stayed on the beach road.

But are there any 4 star hotels, or better, within walking distance of the gay areas? I like a bit of comfort!

Shame to miss out on the sights, sounds and smells of Thailand.

Agreed, I always do that. Sometimes give money at beginning, which helps!

I have a cash card, which I can load in local currency, so no foreign currency surcharge. Reduces cash needed. Can withdraw bshtveadily from ATM. Saves quite a bit.

I agree, but Government already backtracking!

Indeed!

One of the great exchanges!

Indeed!

If you look at the Blowing Wind website, recommended by PeterRS, a Singaporean based website, there are some graphic descriptions of encounters in these hostels. Interestingly, bearing in mind the comments on here about ageing farang, most of the posters on BW are young, and come to Bangkok for sex!

I agree, but some of the guides, such as Mac, are good, and can do with the business.

Fun reading little children pretending to be adults!
