  1. jimmac it is Thailand...you can get anything you want...for a price
  2. Since I am a cheap charlie, i always ask for exit row seats....and request them ahead of time since they dont usually assign them until 24 hours prior to flight time (they imput my request but cant assign seat). Most of my requests have been honored...and in some cases they have put me in business class or 1st class just because I requested more leg room. Plus you get to sit across from the flight attendants during take-off and landing.

  6. stayed there in Jul/Aug 2003....and I have stayed in past years...got room A2..with jacuzzi in main room for 700 baht per day....stayed for just over 3 weeks and yes..cash only...so you walk down the street to the ATM and withdraw some cash - no problem. i paid in full the day before i departed. and it is about a 5-10 minute walk from Tims to where Penthouse is. no phone in room - which can be a good thing no restaurant..but Lek Hotel is right across the street and Kiss restaurant is a short walk away. the rooms are very big, with a standard size fridge, good air con and fan and shower in bathroom. Also - 2 in-room safes - one electronic and one you supply the padlock. Great staff and great service - with absolutely no hassles about the girls...and you have a go-go right below you and a beer bar right outside....and it is not noisy in the rooms some rooms have the jacuzzi in the bathroom...more of a "U" shape than a rectangle (see below) and there are rooms without jacuzzis for about 400 baht here are some pics...sorry for the blocked views here is a shot of the jacuzzi in the bathroom of a different room

  13. I stayed at BKK Woraburi...Jr suite for 1100 baht..no hassles and they even provided coupons for 2 free breakfasts if you had company
  14. Tim's bar beer...no pool or balcony...but an in room jacuzzi and a big room...in room electronic safe and safe that you supply the lock for. and a go-go at ground level
  15. Jacuzzi placement depends on room. I was in A2 and it was in main room. other rooms had it in bathroom
  16. The girls used to have VD books back in the 70's and were supposed to be checked weekly. For a small fee the Doc would stamp 'em negative whether they had VD or not. Also, Armed Forces Radio used to give the daily VD report - bar name and girl's number. If a soldier/sailor/airman.marine caught a dose, the local military hospital (Fifth Field on Soi 63 if memory serves me) would give you a card written in Thai offering free treatment to anyone you had contact with - though most of the girls were afraid to go to a US military hospital.
  17. And I am sure that a girl can get a "negative" test result for the right amount of money like they used to get their VD books stamped negative in the old days.
  18. if the girl has a number as part of her address - the number may work i.e. pooying7575@hotmail.com or pooying_7575 try 757575
  19. got email from my buddy today - no problems with the flight or the connection in Taipei. He said economy class was overbooked so they bumped him to business class on the Honolulu-Taipei leg. And he also said that there were no lines at all at customs.
