Good for you mate - can't keep a good man down!

PS - not mongering until after Ramadan? Not too far away.

It's still available, but you have to look for it.
Was out and about on Tuesday, the 'trouble' returns tomorrow. Most of the usual haunts in town were closed up due to the Gov'ts dumb act towards booze. Trade was WAY down. However, just thought I'd drop into the Bristol Hotel. It's an old haunt from a long time ago. The Londoner was closed, as I thought, but the coffee shop was open. Not crowded at all, but it had a gaggle of Thai tarts just inside the door. About six or seven in all. So I sat down and had a coke (damn I hate this bloody ruling). Saw a tasty lass walk in and wandered over to have a chat. She was about a 7 or 8 on my scale, not the prettiest, but certainly not a candidate for Crufts. She sat with me for about 5 mins before I negotiated how much.
Two minutes later, I had a room (BD 10) and she was in it. I'd seen her around somewhere (probably the Warbler) and she said she had been in country for about two years.
Turned out to be shaved, gave a good bbbj while accepting DATY in 69. Then onto the main menu with an obligatory condom. Rode her long and hard in most positions, then couldn't fininsh. . . Usually I attribute this to too much alcohol. Not this time. She was getting tired so I took a [CodeWord140]. Difficult when you've got a raging hardon. However, that was what was blocking things. Full bladder. Back in bed, she finished me off with a lubed handjob. Sprayed all over the place. All together, not a bad experience considering the lack of choice due to everywhere closed. She turned out to be more than a starfish, but not totally GFE. Would I go back, probably. Cost BD 20. I could have got more choice if I'd dropped into the Sea Shell coffee shop, but the price would have been BD 40 for the girl. Call me a cheap charlie, but the result is the same in the end. That's why I haven't bothered with the Phoenicia, BD 25 for the room and BD 50 or 60 for the girl seem a little steep for my jaded tastes, especially as DXB has more variety at cheaper prices when I go down there and there is poontang available in BAH at lower prices.
I probably won't be mongering again until after Ramadan is over, so good luck in your endeavours. Sea Shell definitely seems open for business, but the disco is closed. The bar is open, but not serving booze, but some girls are definitely around.

Good hunting,

Room service was availible during Ramadan, which means that the bellhop will give you the room numbers of the girls who are in the hotel.I can only speak of the hotel I was in which was the Phoenicia.

Hello follow mongers,

I'm wondering about the current situation in Bahrain during Ramadan. Is room service (i.e calling a girl's room using the numbers provided by bell boy) available in Ramadan?

[Sand Boy]

Dear Expacat,

I was in Bahrain last Thursday. Stayed at the Phoenicia Hotel -again!. Their bars where all shut.The other hotel bars that I walked past near the Pheonicia appeared to be shut. The Thai massage parlors on Exhibition Road were open for business-the lights were on but I did not go in to see if there was any action.

The Phoenicia provided room service for any thing that was required- booze and girls. There were about 10 girls on site.They were not busy so had a good selection.Had one Lebanese girl and one Russian girl. They were very accommodating.

I can not talk about finding girls outside the hotels but I did see some Thai(?) girls standing outside one of the hotels near Exhibition road waiting for a pick-up. They had gone when I walked back.

Good hunting.

[ExpatCat]

Now that ALL the hotels have been banned from selling alcohol, is there any action at all ? If so, where ? Are the bars open and selling soft drinks ?

What are the girls doing and where are they going ? Are they staying at home ? Have they left ? Are they hitting the coffee shops in the hotels ?

I can't get out until the weekend when my 'trouble' travels. Does anyone have any first hand, eyes-on information, or is it all hearsay ?
Any solid data would be appreciated.

Good hunting in the current climate,

Expatcat

Arzy,

How up to date is your information ? While this gen is true for most of the year, have you checked it out during Ramadan ? Are any of the bars or clubs open and serving booze during this month ? While I know the 5 star hotels seem to be exempt from the current dumb, knee-jerk, no alcohol, reaction, I have no first hand knowledge about the smaller venues. Any enlightenment?

Cheers,

Expatcat

I hear there is action at the sea shell though whether its the disco or bar downstairs I'm not sure, beware though, get caught and your in deep s--t with it being ramadan, plenty action at some of the appts in juffair and exhibition though. Word is they may lift the ban next week onthe 3 stars and let them serve after dark but as usual no music. Lets see.

If you don't want to use a hotel try going to TC Tabasco Charlies at the souk. You will find Thai or Filipinos roaming around the hotel lobby or at the bar. If you want you can get massages from ethiopians at the massage parlor forgot the name but something called about the "moon".

Another place is the Sea Shell or hang out at Al Bustan at the bar you can find free lancers looking for a take out deal.

I am new to Bahrain and seem to have landed at the wrong time. Tried the place at Yum but found it was closed. Can anyone advise where you can get the stuff without having the hassles of having to stay in a hotel during this period. Looking forward 2 useful responses.

Was in Bahrain for last three days and it was very quiet.Stayed at Phoenicia Hotel-You can get alchohol from room service but all bars shut.There were at least 10 girls(GIS) in the hotel plus or minus.The quality varied from 6 to 3 -no stunners.A few girls who had their heart in the business but the rest seemed a bit off.The girls operated as reported before -coming to your room at 6:00 pm and at 11:00 pm looking for business.It seems that unless you are staying in a hotel you are not going to get service-Did not know about Ritz Carlton-pity as always a good place to visit for the band and the decent range of cigars and brandies.I asked one of the hotel staff about the situation and he seemed unfazed by the decree and thought that it might be ignored by next week.There is obviously a lot of money being lost by the people with the wasta(sp).It was difficult to judge if the above level of service applied to other hotels however this might be a good time to haggle with the hotels as mine was not very busy-although you would not know it from the house cleaning service.

I doubt the CIS girls are following the Ramadan tradition. If they haven't taken leave for home, they still have to earn a buck, don't they?

[ExpatCat]

Dear All,
Please note that Bahrain is likely to become a complete dead zone in Ramadan. The GDN today noted that all hotels were barred from selling alcohol at any time during the holy month. In my mind this is mental and a step back towards the dark ages. Up until last year you could have a drink after dark. No more !
Any reasons for people to come to Bahrain for a month have just gone out the window.
If bars can't serve booze, then what will attract the girls and hence the guys.
Sorry, all bars and hotels, except the Ritz Carlton.
HELLO HYPOCRISY ! ! !

Bummed out

P.S. Any changes will be reported.

Yeah I also played pool in the bar downstairs to kill some time before the disco opened.

Whats silly (to me) is that you go regularly to an extremely loud (cant hear if shouted in the ear) disco with a bad m/f ratio. You have no intention of picking a girl up. The disco has the 5 BD (50 Riyal/Dirham) cover charge (no drinks)... so where is the attraction?

You know what I mean

Eric

PS "Eric of Bahrain"? Nah! Same Eric of KSA mate...

Who you calling silly?! Sounds good to me.

I remember the pool tables in the disco - there's also a pool room/bar on the first floor. I played a young Saudi guy for an hour before the disco warmed up. Later saw him in the disco smooching his girl in the corner, then dancing, smooching and hugging all night, like a lovesick teenage couple. Seemed to be a lot of that happening there. Must be foreplay.

I was told that they dont usually pick up girls they come every night for the pool. Silly if you ask me ... Eric
