And this one has gone on long past the point where the penny would drop for most chaps. As ever, Neyzhov brings a bit of mirth to my humdrum existence in Farangland. Kudos!

First timers benefit from staying within 1,000 meters of Soi Myth Night, which you can find on Google Maps. That's between the beach on the west and Third Road on the east. Between, Central Pattaya...

I think being overweight gets the ball rolling on these lamentable decisions. A girl gets a bit pum-pui and seeks to distract attention from her girth. She gets a boob job so her bustline will match...

Good summary from Mr. 20 on the Pattaya lineup as of this writing. I agree the current "Pattaya look" leaves much to be desired.

I understand that what's considered attractive changes over time....

What a helpful and informative report. Big thanks to Tex Guy for taking the time to post.

Good points all. And let's not forget that even if a guy finds a girl he fancies and buys her a few drinks, he may discover to his dismay that she declines to go upstairs.

I think there are...

Let's call that 10 days in Bangkok. I don't think that's too long.

You are correct that jet lag is a factor coming from the United States and adjusting to a time change of 9-12 hours. The heat and...

What a great report! Thanks much to Mr. Light for taking the time to write it up.

What a helpful report. Well written, with just the right amount of detail.

Thanks for taking the time to post.

As others have noted, renting a villa is not a good idea because you'll be located FAR from the action. First timers usually finding lodging in the central part of town. Say, in a 1,500 meter radius...

What a shame! The food at those places was never stellar, but it hit the spot and the price was low. Moreover, I always enjoyed eating poolside at the Lek Hotel.

Thanks for the update Mogwai.

I have purchased multiple business suits and dress shirts from Rajawongse Tailor:

They are located on the south side of Sukhumvit Road, about 350 meters west of...

Right off the bat, let me admit I have yet to stay at either place. So I'll just say a few words about their locations, and leave it at that.

They are both in central Pattaya, which is good for a...

Great to hear the sawbones gave you clearance for a night on the town. Loved the recap and your trenchant critique of the ground truth. Always fun to read your reports.

Bunky

The behavior described by Mr. Turgid is usually ascribed to our friends from the subcontinent. India is, of course, in South-West Asia. When I see "East Asia," I read that as a reference to Korean...

Unless somebody explicitly provides his nationality, I don't assume based on user name, English composition skill or other indirect evidence.

Moreover, the "Where are the hotties in Pattaya?"...

The conventional wisdom is that the "top shelf" girls who look like a "model" are concentrated in the go-go clubs on Walking Street. So if your primary focus is on looks, that's where you should...

The party atmosphere at the Areca is a feature, not a bug, for many guys.

But if you're looking for a hotel in central Pattaya that's a bit more chill consider the Whitehouse Condotel on Soi 13,...

Cogent. Pithy. Didactic. And with a dash of wit and humor.

Glad to see our man Nyeshov back in the kingdom. Looking forward to more of his A-1 superfine reportage.

If you don't mind staying south of the Nana BTS station, check out the Park Royal Suites. (Formerly known as the Phachara Suites.).

They offer a "One Bedroom Executive Suite" that over 100 square...

"You can't make a buck in this market, the country's goin' to hell faster than when Roosevelt was in charge. Too much cheap money sloshing around the world. The worst mistake we ever made was letting...

I spend *way* too much time reading the traffic in online forums devoted to a variety of special interests. I'm old enough to remember Usenet newsgroups in the Nineties, and before that dial-up...

Now that's what I call a tour d'horizon. Informative, timely and well-written. Great job by Jim2288.

Maybe I'm odd, but I think the pre-trip research is fun.

On a cold boring night in Falangland, hot toddy close at hand, I read all the new reports in all of the Bangkok and Pattaya forums. I use...
