On the subject of MBK, some weeks ago I went there to have my mobile phone fixed. There was a contact problem with the micro USB plug, and after trying several cables that all worked on other devices, I assumed the problem is in the phone. So I went there and was quoted a price of 800 Baht, which I accepted. Seems high, and I should have asked at other places to get a better price. Surprisingly, these mobile phone repair shops are mostly staffed by Indians (?) who speak good English.

How do you know I don't exercise? Actually you are right, I don't exercise any more. I used to go running in Lumpini park and swimming in a nearby pool, but mainly as a means to meet boys, which failed. But I still walk a lot, on an average day out between 10 and 20 km. And the occasional mountain climb: http://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2017/06/khao-no-in-nakon-sawan-province.html (just one out of many)

Do you have details how much exactly the Chinese are ripped off? All bars should have a menu, and when going to some place where I don't remember the drink prices from my last visit, I ask to see the menu. No clear pricing, or someone typing a price in a pocket calculator, is a sure sign you are being scammed or overcharged.

That just encourages them to try again. I have paid a fixed rate only twice: when I first came to Bangkok in 2009 (didn't know better) and in 2013 in an emergency situation.

Certainly some good looking, and I was pleasantly surprised when I went behind the blinds about 2 years ago, but I don't like the low light (can you ask to turn up the light, or even better let me get the switch/dimmer so I can set it as I like it?), and poor light is a big issue for me.

I am surprised about the high number of African boys you report. I would be interested, but I only ever met one in Bangkok who wanted 1500 and did not accept 1000 for short time, and now is gone; and there is one couple (brothers/cousins?) changing between Bangkok and Pattaya (have seen them several times over the years), and the one or other (maybe 3 over the years) on the apps, but none of them my specifications.

I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't sing, I don't dance, I have been in McDo once (never again), I have eaten at KFC twice (never again), if it wasn't for sex and chocolate, I could live forever!

I like to watch our activity in a mirror. Some massage places and some short time hotels have them.

Kanchanaburi is west of Bangkok. Going to Kanchanaburi in style would be by train (but van or bus is faster and more frequent). The novel is "The Bridge over the River Kwai", the movie is "The Bridge on the River Kwai".

With the two of you quite different (age, race), I guess it will be difficult to find someone in a sauna who is interested in both of you. Some saunas have orgies with group action, but from my ample sampling, often the group action just doesn't start going, everyone is waiting for something to happen, but at the end nothing happens because all are waiting. But setting up a profile looking for a threesome is a good idea, and it doesn't cost anything. Probably offing someone is the best idea. I would not discuss money, and pay the going rate afterwards. It's a buyer's market.

When I passed 3 weeks ago, it was still open, but boys in jeans as far as I vaguely remember, so I skipped. Given the low number of boys and customers, the closing doesn't come as a surprise. But whoever bought/rented these two bars and converted them into one, what was he thinking?

X-Size had a promotion drinks for 300 Baht when I passed on Monday. (Just a few years ago, normal drink price was 300 and promotion was 200.)

I am impressed that they tech touch-typing in English. I don't know if it is taught anywhere in regular school, I took evening classes to learn touch-typing. I get the occasional Thai boy asking me to teach him English. After attending English classes at school for years without learning anything, they think I take out a magic wand and wield it, and suddenly, without any effort, he can speak English! Whereas the Burmese boy and the Lao boy in Klong Toey make some effort on their own to learn, and had some vocabulary before we met. I sometimes have the same problem with saying goodbye, when I don't directly go home, but meet another boy or go to a sauna, but don't want to upset the boy I'm saying goodbye to. I too took taxi to Sathorn (when the boy stood next to me and could hear what I say to taxi driver), and then diverted to elsewhere. But packing and checking out of hotel and getting on highway is the ultimate deception! You have to remember not to post on facebook, log in on gay dating, or online chat with others. I wonder if BurBoy got the info from somewhere that you stayed another night and had another boy. In Pattaya, it would be impossible for me to pull that trick, telling a boy I go to Bangkok to day and stay another night to meet another boy. You are too hard to MonBoy. Firstly, whatever time he goes to bed (let's assume 5 am), sleeping at 11am is ok by my standards. Secondly, I treat appointments as loose intentions to meet. If I had a Baht for each time a boy was late or no show, I could retire!

Come on, we had a conversation as far as background noise and distractions in Soi Twilight allowed (a point I made before in this thread). I have been asked a few times by Thai boys who speak good English why I speak so slowly. I speak slowly even in German, and when I speak English with Thais, even more so to allow them to understand better. But with Thais I mostly speak Thai, and from other countries in SEA I get boys who speak good English, so these problems you (plural, numazu and samebb) describe don't apply to me. I do correct several of my Thai friend's spelling, grammar, pronunciation (after assessing if it is helpful), and as many members know, I occasionally do the same here on the forums.

Probably not Philippines Immigration, but airline staff. Vouching and promising won't help in such case, they will ask for some documents.

I have never been, reports I read are largely negative and being overpriced alone is a good reason not to go.

Low season is from 1st of January to 31st of December every year.

Promises in Thailand are worth as much as the air that carries the sound. I would not want to be that customer. Do you really speak with him that way? It makes me cringe to read. Do the boy a favor and speak standard English with him.

Can you have a conversation there? I find it way too noisy, and the lights annoy me as well, to have a conversation in Silom Soi 4 or Soi Twilight. And when someone on the adjacent table starts to smoke, then I'm out!

Mobile phones or other recording devices are forbidden in all saunas I have been to.

The new library on Ratchadamoern and a new place Chang Chui on Nonthaburi side of the river are on my list.

I have similar interest (straights, construction worker, rough trade), just slightly different type and just wanking, not sucking.

I was not asked for copies, anyway they took pics/vids with their phone, except for one who used my camera because it has better lense, and then copied to his phone. Where are such videos sold? I see some amateur porn in Line groups, mine might end up there?

Reading that list gives me a shudder (of disgust) and is reason enough not to enter the bar. Only missing is "Sex Bomb" and I would run a mile to get away!

I occasionally take pictures of the boys, no extra payment. I prefer underwear over nudity, but the one or other was so quick to get nude, I took some nude as well (before telling him to put the underwear back on). Only few refused. I has happened three times this year, but never before, that boys asked to take pictures and even video of us during sex. A new trend?
