Where is the mention of alcohol? 555 Good luck with this endeavour. I know you have a great deal of experience in Pattaya. MM. Above post by BM papillon is a perfect example of the trolling you allow here. Anyone that knows LBJ even slightly knows he would never self promote. He's one of the nicest, most humble people you'll ever meet.

Thanks for the kind words bellfunk. It was good to meet you and hope to see you again. It really wasn't nice of you to get me drunk and then expect me to get you to the airport on time. Glad you made it. I owe you one. Thanks to LBJ and everyone else for the nice comments. Thanks also to LBJ for bringing me my new laptop. I really appreciate it and still owe you a bar fine for it. Beer "wait you". To answer some of the questions raised... There is a website: 3Som Bar & Guesthouse Soi LK Metro Pattaya Most everything is covered and there are a couple of gallery pages. There are about a dozen girls that rotate in and out with between 4 and 8 hostesses at any given time. At least early in the evening. Plus Fah, the manager, cashiers and housekeeper. Many pictures show a cashier and/or housekeeper in the mix. Looks are not a qualification for those positions. They do contribute to the customer service though. The email address is: 3Som's email any further questions can be answered there. There's a work in progress YouTube channel: 3Som YouTube with a couple of short videos. As a room guest, if you run a tab/bin, at 1,000 Baht a 10% discount kicks in. Drinks, Lady drinks and bar fines are included. Laundry and transportation fees are not. I think BM whilliam_mancon currently holds the record for largest discount received. There are new flat screen TVs in the Standard and Superior rooms, but they're not plasma or LCD. Last month the ISP and Wi-Fi equipment were replaced so decent internet is available throughout the building and is free for guests. The bar has satellite TV and can show NFL, NHL, NCAA games and NASCAR as well as the regular sports programming. New Year's Eve there will be food about 9 PM catered by the Golf club. Mini burgers, potato salad, Cole slaw, wings and a couple of other dishes. Not a party, but stop by and have a drink and a snack if you're in the area. Irish Rovers, Kilkenny and Billabong are having a big joint party in the corner by Pasadena that night. Should be a fun night on the soi with lots of pyrotechnics, though not like Sois 7 & 8. Here are a couple of pics from Xmas. Happy Holidays.

I stayed at Cherry Bar for a few hours. Sorry I missed you.

Fah has ordered extra icing for this auspicious occasion. Could be interesting.

Another great Cherry Bar party and a very good turnout as well. Congrats again and thanks for sharing our day.

Jason, I have USB cables if you can't find yours. A few pics from the party. It's difficult to get candid shots because the girls are always moving around and fat guys like to get in the way. Bow looking haughty and haute'. Dang Sorry for the poor quality, I was far away and the flash didn't penetrate. Dao Dao getting the war paint applied. The delightful Fang. She has a lot of attitude at times, but she's really a sweet girl. I don't know the name of the young one on the right. She just started yesterday. Girls Jason instructing Fang in the art of war paint. Pang, Jason's personal assistant. I can't get this lady's name straight...I thought it was Pat, yesterday her badge said Put, but she said it was Pa. Same problem. She says her name is Puen, but her name tag said Pelr.??? Fang's customer bought 2 tickets, one for each of them. Fang one the first 2 prizes in the drawing, a Lolita's gift certificate and 500 Baht bar bin. I wonder if he talked her out of the Lolita's prize? ( I just had a girl tell me she wanted to watch if I went there.) Another customer won a 500 Baht bin, which I could use, but I won the wireless router. Anyone need a router?

If you're, as you say, an "old hand" you should know enough to at least raise the point with whoever is in charge. Even if it's the offending mamasans. If I got no relief I would go back at another time looking for a farang manager. I have before and would again if the need arose. Maybe this is just a bit of Karma... I am old, but don't believe I am a hand. Oh and BTW...Good move Paul. As your neighbor is doing a similar promotion and you seem to have the bigger and better looking staff.

Tomorrow night, 14 Oct at Redz Bar in Soi LK Metro across from the Metro Apts., there will be a grand opening party hosted by the owner Brian. It's a nice looking small bar named after his hair color and his favorite football team. Man Utd, (I think). There will be a pig, other food and live music. Stop by and say hello. I have no interest in the bar, just posting this for a friend.

They ask for a 'drink', but get a higher priced 'cocktail'. It does come with a paper umbrella though.

The book.

Similar to the way he responds to his guests' complaints. I don't understand why you're hyping this guy. Are you getting a cut?

Paul!!! Please come back. Three of the best girls are now dancing elsewhere.

Haven't made it for happy hour yet. I usually expect it to be well liquor anyway. I don't care for the 1,000 baht barfine until midnight, 600 after. Not really much to look at there, which may be why the barfineis so high. The couple of cute girls would be gone before long.

I think the smokiest go-go is Oasis on Soi Buakhoa. Open the curtain at the door and inhale. WOW! They then make it worse by continually pumping fog into the place. Even some of the girls hate it. Barfines 550 and they usually go down to 300 at 1:00 or 1:30 for 10 minutes, except the last 2 times I was in they were short of girls so they decided to make it 400. They do have a 2 for 1 happy hour from 7 to 9. Misty's looks nice, but it seems a little cold. Not temperature wise. Although last time I was there one of the girls kept trying to stick her pussy on my finger. There were a lot of girls smoking, plus some customers, but it didn't seem that smokey in there to me. There are some big titted girls here, as well as some older ladies. Babydolls is a fun place. A couple of cute girls, most are average. Check out your girl's classification before paying bar. Dancers are 500, Exotic dancers are 600. Exotic dancers show their tits. I think the Showgirls are 700. At 1:30 bar fines are 300. They have a happy hour from (I think ) 8 to 10. Happy and Peppermint seem much the same as usual except there seemed to me to be a lot fewer cute girls. Maybe the hotties are home on holiday until things pick up. Draft beer available. Sakura Club 69 is trying to imitate Babydolls I think, but with a lot fewer and some uglier girls. Barfine 500 or 550, I think. Windmill. Not a lot of cuties here, but they do similar shows to Babydolls. I don't care much for the 1,000 Baht barfine until midnight, 600 after. Champagne, pretty much the same as always. Some nights free slice of pizza. Draft beer. They have a side stage and a shower room. A couple of the feature dancers are pretty hot, but I haven't inquired as to prices or barfines for them. Normal barfine is 500 or 550. Smoking is mainly in the back. Lollipop. Only spent a few minutes in there. Similar to Babydolls. Pushy for drinks. Didn't stay long enough to ask about barfines. Champion. Not sure why I even went there. I think I had to piss. Had a drink, and didn't see anyone I'd pay bar for. Club Blu on Soi Buakhoa. A coyote club that has a number of girls, some of which are pretty cute. I forget the barfine, but it didn't seem out of line. So probably between 500 and 600. Ice on Soi Metro. I can't see how this place is surviving. Another coyote club. They started last month with about 15 or 20 average girls and are now down to about 12 below average girls. The barfine is down to 500 now. Went in last week and the girls pounced on me for drinks and barfines. I think they're desperate here. Papagayo on Soi Diana. Went in and stayed for 1 drink. Only a few girls. Not much to speak of. Didn't ask about prices. Didn't buy a LAdy Cocktail either. Betty Boop Dance Club Soi6. This can be a fun place at times. Since it's on Soi 6 you get the play on the sofas and they have ST rooms upstairs. There were several cute girls the last couple of times I was there. First trip had a girl seriously working on Mr. Happy. Her ST started at 800 and went down to "up to you", with a promise of cum in mouth. Unfortunately the one I liked best was a bit of a puzzle to me at first. She wouldn't talk to me or come over for a drink. Finally she came over. She had a drink, said she was 20 and was happy to go ST, but no LT. After some discussion she said I should come back in 2 months and she would go LT with me. She wouldn't show me her ID card either. I believe she is 17. She didn't look that young to me. Mandarin Soi 6. Pretty short supply of girls, although there were 2 cute ones. Kiss Kool Soi 6. I'm known there, but they were really pushy about drinks, for 3 or 4 girls at a time. One new girl was kind of cute, the others seem like they've been there too long.
