[QUOTE=Normad2020; 1155770]Fellow Forum Members, I just found out that I will need to be in Pattaya for a friend's bachelor party on 30 May 2011 to 2 Jun 2011. The problem is my flight from Malaysia will land in Bangkok International Airport around 6. 55pm. I wanted to book a seat on the BELL bus but their timetable indicated that the last bus leave Bangkok Int Airport for Pattaya at 6pm.
Is there an alternative bus service (similar to BELL where they deliver you to your hotel) that I can consider? [/QUOTE]There are no more buses after that hour. You will have to go upstairs and outside to get a taxi for 1000 baht + 60 baht tolls.

I went to visit a friend who works a legitimate job on Soi 6 yesterday. I told her that I was going to leave and get a massage. She recommended a place there on Soi 6. I went and had a great head and shoulders for 200 baht. What didn't sit well with me was that usually when I get head and shoulders it is done right in the main room with all the chairs. However, for this I was guided upstairs to the massage mattresses. The girl went through the routine of a full body massage although more gentle than a thai massage. To make a short story even shorter, after the massage I got FS for 500 baht. She tried to get 1000 out of me but that wasn't happening. When I showed her the 500 baht bill it was all systems go. I shall return if for nothing but the massage itself.

I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks & Regards[/QUOTE]There is a government bus service whose last bus leaves at 9 PM (during last high season; is it still the same?).
It doesn't drop you off at your hotel, but it leaves you on the main road. There will be songthaews at those stops which will offer you to take you straight to your hotel. Cheaper option will be to hop on a public songthaew traveling in a loop.

[quote=kyle fox;1155499]hi all. i'm making my first trip to south east asia, planning to spend 1 week in pattaya and 1 week in phillipines (manila and / or cebu). i will be working remotely and need a reliable internet connection. is this realistic is these places? i'm thinking / hoping the higher-end hotels will have such things.[/quote]you will have no problem with internet connections. speed is usually around 200 something kbits.
reliability depends on the hotel. at some hotels, there are more internet drop-outs (where connection is lost for 10 to 20 seconds). it will be reliable enough for stock trading, but internet poker might have trouble.
[quote=kyle fox;1155499]is there any issue with trading stocks on the us market from foreign countries.[/quote]absolutely no problems.
[quote=littlebigman;1155807]i take the time to go the internet shop that i have been using for a number of years. i look for a clean place with updated software protection on their computers to check into my accounts and do transaction.[/quote]if i was a crook, i would also look for those type of places to put my trojan horse to capture your logins and passwords.
previous user might have gone to a dangerous site.
i don't trust those public internet cafes; they probably have pirated software which might not offer all the protection possible.
i know i'm being paranoid. that's why i bring my laptop to log into my financial sites.

Insomnia / Lucifer etc
Hey folks!
It's been some time since I last visited Pattaya now, but returning in about a month or so now. I'm curious about what ST / LT I should aim at when hunting in places like Insomnia and Lucifer.
Also, are there some sort of SOL (BKK) type of establishment in Pattaya? If so, what's the name of it / them and where are they located?
Thanks in advance!

[/quote]disco lt still 1000 baht normally. don't really know if st exists. it's hard enough getting them away for lt as many times you get excuses of wanting to stay and party with friends or wanting to go to next disco with friends. after they get all dolled up i doubt if they want to go back to your place, take a shower, fuck, have to take another shower, and get all dolled up again for anything less than 1000 baht, which is what lt would be anyway.
bj bars here are:
1. [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord901][CodeWord901][/url]'s - soi lk metro, off soi diana inn. 800 baht.
2. pump station - soi post office (soi 13/2 off beach road) 700 baht, and
3. bliss - sai 3 (3rd road & soi 18 in front of xzyte disco. 600 baht.
probably good to do a bj bar once for the novelty, but let's face it, you can get fs from a beach road girl for 500 (many cases 300 or 400) + 100 for short time room.

Know where your hotel is, and where the. Gov bus stops. At 11pm a farang is going to be ripped off badly, especially if they see a suitcase.

Reply to Message
I just spent three months in Pattaya resently. I spent a lot of time at the local discoteques such as Lucifer. I must tell you that it really depends on what sort of person you are, how you look, and how good your game is. If you speak a little thai. That would help as well. Speaking for myself, I never spent anymore than one thousand baht for long time and five hundred baht for short time. I never took any short time out of Lucifers and Mixx, etc, only long time. If the girls like you they will go with you for the price that you offer. My suggestion is for you to look for the girls who are interested in you and stay away from the girls that you have to run after. A good six, seven, or eight, is better than a problem nine or ten. I have been going to Thailand since two thousand so I am not new to the game there and in other countries. It is pretty much the same. Hope I helped you with your question.

When I was in Lucifers, Mix, and Insomnia back in February I had girls coming up to me asking to be with me for LT man it was hard getting rid of them because they wanted to spend the whole day with after spending the the night. After I dismissed them with 1000THB-1200THB they said "Khob-Kun" and bowed their head. LOL. As we know all our experiences will not be the same on trips because the way we look, act, how in shape we in. Etc.

thanks to mr enternational, rocksoff, brasillee and pana nyc for the replies!
mr enternational: of course! especially when staying late partying at these places i can't see the girl heading back afterwards. so lt it is =) as for the places you mention. these are really just for bjs though right? i was thinking more in the line of possibilities for mer "open" sex (not just bjs) like sol offers. are there any such place in pattaya?
rocksoff: this lick bar, what makes it special? care to do a quick rundown for me? would be appreciated =)
brasillee: thanks for your input! i believe i should be at least rather well off in that department. while my thai skills are lousy (only knowing certain words and phrases) , i'm in my early 30s and don't believe i look too bad. i've been to insomnia and lucifer before, although last time i spent more or less my entire vacation with two (regular) chicks i met in bkk that also followed me to pattaya. quite neat actually. fucked them both, we all split money for food, etc. but i believe the disco-scene with places like climax / insomnia / bossy etc in bkk and insomnia / lucifer cater more to my needs than beer bars and go-go's.
pana nyc: haha, i hear you! i guess it would depend on the girl, why'know? sometimes you just want to get laid. while other times i would definately not mind hooking up with them the day afterwards. or longer for that matter. if you're having a good time, why not? =)

If you find that you are spending a lot of time (more than 3 minutes) and effort (more than 1 drink) trying to get the girl to to like you or go with you. Its not a good sign. It's not necessary in Thailand because there are so many other women to move on to. The numbers of women are totally in your favor. If you come correct, and your game is halfway on point, you will have no problem easily pulling the women you like / want.
Also. Staying at a decent hotel helps. Almost every chick I hooked up with in Thailand always asked me what hotel I was staying at staying before we rolled out. Not necessarily expensive hotels. But name recognition. Well known multinational asian or western hotel brands.

Noted.
Thanks Mr E. It looks like the taxi service is a better bet after the BELL alternative. So I will most probably get into Pattaya around 9pm and check into Pasadena Lodge. Hopefully can make X-Zone by 11pm as the guys will be meeting there for the first bachelor party. LOL.
Next day we planned to present a duo package from DD for the guy who will be getting married on 18 June 2011. Maybe after the "double sexperience" he might change his mind.
Cheers.
