You cannot change Dong in Thailand. I visit Viet Nam a lot and have tried.

Bump.....555

Yuth bar opposite Big C is great on Friday and Saturday is great if you like Rock music. Leo Blues bar in Naklua not bar either. I miss the Ugly Brothers in FLB. Who would like to see them or similar type of thing return? We can have a sing song.

Hate Drinking street with a passion.

I wouldn't buy a Pug in Thailand. They get breathing problems. IMHO only buy a Thai dog in Thailand. All the European breeds are great but you will be lucky if one survives puppyhood. Save yourself a lot of heartache and buy something like a Thai Bankeaw. Nothing kills those bastards. Ours had Parvo and was only mildly sick for 2 days.

Thanks for posting. Brings back some memories. The best time to visit Chaiyaphum is when they have their special flower bloom. Krajows I think they are called. Really lovely and the views into the valley are wonderful. All pink. Boring place for nightlife. Every falang I met there was on heroin. Think I'd probably go the same way if I had to live there.

Thai Airways is still my fav airline. Some of the planes have IFE. They are upgrading their fleet and changing things about so you might get lucky and find yourself on a newer aircraft.

It's weird. I had a nostalgia trip to Happy a while back. I saw the gil on the right dancing. Shes kin hot mate. In the old days I married one of the Happy Go Go girls and took her back to UK. Our relationship didn't work out funnily enough.

1999 - 2003 I would say where the years when the Kuoni deal was on.

I nearly agree with you 100%. Granted, she is in my all time best ever Pattaya girls. Trouble was, you have to look at it in reality. She was a sexy little tart, great dancer on yabba. If you look about now there are quite a few girls like her doing the rounds. I was with one last week and could name a couple more off the top of my head. Again, I'm not going to argue here. Last weeks example. Young, on Ice, tight body, bareback, fucked nasty all night and most of next day. Really really top performer. Bunged her 1500 LT. Personally, I don't know or have not been anyway where that is available.

A lot of the ex pats and long term mongors moan about things not being the same as before. Tonight for the first time ever I took the trouble to work out the exact cost one of my old holidays would be now. We all used to go to WS and shag sexy young tarts then go back to nice hotel.So based on a 14 night stay. THEN. I used to pay a special Kuoni deal. 2 weeks in the Dusit seaview room, airport pick up and BA direct flight for 700 quid. We went once a year. I remember drinking Salty Dogs in the bar there before we went out. You remember. I only went with Happy Go Go tarts. It used to be 1500 LT plus 500 BF 14 nights with one of them used to cost 28000 divided by 70 baht to pound. Total 400 notes. I reckon we would do max about 900 notes spending as we weren't big drinkers. We'd go out for a meal then hit Moon River or Thai House for the entertainment. So a first class holiday would sting you 2000 quid. The girls didn't shag as good but gave a fantastic GFE. NOW. Just the flight would be 700 quid. How much is it from UK now? Dusit is 4000 baht a night. So room would be 56,000 baht now at roughly 46 to the pound Total 1217 quid. We used to have the pick of the tarts in Happy but I bet you would be lucky to find one to stay LT for 2500 plus 600 BF. 14 nights =43,400 baht at 46 to the pound. Total 943 quid. The girls shag better but I'm not sure you could get the GFE like we used to. I know now you would need roughly 10,000 baht a day to live like we did then. Total 140,000 baht divided by 46 = 3043 quid. Roughly 5900 pounds for the same holiday. Yes you could say Dusit is a rip off and you can get a decent hotel of the same standard for say 2000 baht. That might knock 600 quid off the total but you can see where I am coming from. On a plus side the sex available here is incredible. What is regarded as standard fare would cost a lot more anywhere else in the world. I know there will be people on here saying the Go Go scene is a rip off and they prefer an older beer bar tart from New Plaza that takes care. I don't believe it. That's bollocks. It's down to money. If you have enough coin the Go Go girls with the attitude would treat you like your Bamboo bar granma is now and trust me you would be a lot happier about life.

Mirkwood holds the world shagging record.

I think it's in bad taste to name and shame the girls. If you are stupid enough to send a girl in Pattaya money that is your failing not hers. I think it's a better idea to post pictures of the guy and criticize him. The girls are prostitutes working in a bar fucking for money. Give them a break. Most on here are fat ugly bastards. Do you really think a 20 year old TG likes you? Just enjoy the sex. Hit it heavy. You are an ugly bastard and she is pretty so you pay. That's it. Saying that. I'm a sponsor myself. I'm on a pay as you go deal rather than the monthly contract

I was also in Saigon Girl when they were there. Didn't look that threatening to me. I don't get these biker gangs in LOS. To me they seem like copies of the real thing.

Premiership restaurant in Naklua 2am.

Good picture for the thread.

This restaurant is directly opposite J&P Court hotel in soi Lenke. You can't miss it. Ting Tong Tony from the Drunken Duck recommended it to me and I was round there like a shot. I miss English style Chinese food badly. Anyway, I took Miss Thumbs Up from Soi 6 last night for a romantic meal. It looks lke it's going to be expensive from the outside but in fact it's quite the opposite. First thing that strikes you is the beer prices. Really cheap. We were drinking draught Asashi 1/2 pints for 60 baht. It was lovely. I ordered the deluxe meal for 2 that costs 495 baht. Prawn crackers to start. We sat there enjoying a beer with them. First was the starters. My god it was enormous. Chicken satay x 4, massive spare ribs with sauce, prawn toast, and 2 large spring rolls. Really nice. Next was my favorite crispy duck pancakes. It was unbelievable how much duck was on the plate. We were both stuffed but had to make room for the next installment crispy shredded beef, sweet and sour pork and special fried rice. It was monster. No way could we eat it all. We came out seriously stuffed and just went home. No chance of drinking more beer anywhere. The owner seems like a decent fella and came over to ask if everything was ok. All in all a really nice place to eat. I wouldn't take a TG to be honest. All they will do is moan that it's not spicy. You are better off going wth a mate. Total bill was 675 baht. Well worth it. It's not exactly the same as UK but I'd say close enough. It was the one type of food that I've missed and never been able to find. It wasn't that busy but I expect that will change when word gets out.

Hey great. I'm in town Friday. See you there. Get Ricky to point me in right direction of dirtiest cow in bar please.

It only delays me a couple of minutes. The lazy bastards hate any kind of work so it's worth it to me. I'm actually sitting in KL departure lounge as we speak. I'm going to piss Thai immigration off today just for a laugh. When I'm though I might pretend to call out to a friend ' Don't go to this man he's a buffalo'

I always make sure they hear me mutter kwai (buffalo) when I walk past. Also, NEVER smile or say thank you. Don't open your passprt to the right page and always put the wrong visa number on the form. The falang fights back

Don't start me off. I hate these buffalos big time. I just know they were driving taxis around 5 years ago.

I know I was tempting fate starting this thread. I've just been a victim of....... 6. Taxi drivers that either don't know the way, never heard of anywhere, take you on a longer route, drive in a life threatening manner or haven't got any change. Flagged down a taxi in Rang Sit and told the fella to go to the airport. He was going the right way then suddenly turned off before the Expressway. I'd told him to go on the Expressway as well. I guess he thought I meant 'Do not go'. Anyway, it was too late. I got the tour of Bangkok. When we finally arrived he didn't have any change and I only had 1000 baht note. The fare was 400 baht. I had to run over to the terminal and get an iced coffee and inhaler in Boots the chemist then run back to the taxi rank. I was a broken man. The queue in immigration followed by the customs clearance strip off finished me. Please add those bastards to the list. I forgot them. 11. Thai immigration officers. Let's be honest. 10 years ago they were following buffalo's up a rice field. I reckon for a laugh some Thai fukka dressed them up in a uniform and stuck them behind a desk in the airport.

Not a negative post. Just a bit of fun. What makes you go ting tong here? Please allow me to start: 1. Any Thai male with a whistle. 2. The door bell noise in a 7/11. 3. Any Thai with a microphone at a supermarket. 4. Thai TV. 5. Anything admin. IE trying to pay a bill or any type of customer service related task. 6. Taxi drivers that either don't know the way, never heard of anywhere, take you on a longer route, drive in a life threatening manner or haven't got any change. 7. Restaurant staff that bring the starter out with the main course. 8. Thai lack of awareness. Now this really pisses me off. Thai memory's seem to be on permanent delete. 9. Thai workmanship. Everything in this country is bodged up. 10. Dishonesty. I had to laugh this week. Some fukka stole the wire that operates the gate at work. Go on. Let's have them.......

I was one of the two others. Second time in last two weeks we have eaten there. It's been good for us.

Right, I'd like to come. I'll put it on my phone alarm.
