Angeles City

[QUOTE=SouthEaster;2025369]Flac3,

I just have to ask, why the hell are you tipping 500 pesos for 2-3000 peso short times? By your own admission the girls are neither hot or sweet and the ST price is already plenty high. I will probably catch flack (no pun intended) for being a cheap Charlie but it just doesn't make sense to me. From your report it is obvious you have no problems with cash but why reward girls for what you aren't getting?

Southeaster.[/QUOTE]My experience has been if you don't tip, the girl with tell her friends and unless you're the only guy in the bar or devilishly handsome, most of the sought after girls will avoid you, tell you they're on the men's / cherry, or just take drinks. I don't tip if the service is bad. But if the girl performed, I tip. The girls I barfined were in their 20's, slim, most without a baby, and cute, so in the top 10% for AC. The reverse is also true, if I tip the going fare or a little more, then the more sought after girls tend to seek me out. And yes, I'm more interested in having a good time than saving a few thousand pesos and I'm fortunate enough to be able to do so. But to each their own. It takes all kinds to keep AC interesting.

The best advice I ever got on ISG was ten years ago. It sounded something like this, I'm getting older and heavier, and I'm going to give the girls more for their effort.

Throwing money at girls is not the best policy, but I'm not going to disagree with anything FL has posted below.

You should use the tip to encourage the girls to perform better and stay longer for 1000 peso tip most of the girls will do anal and for 3000 you will get anal and make a video. There is nothing wrong with a big tip as long as the girl earns it.

So do to airlines being delayed I got to manila three hours later then what I was suppose to. So I got to Angeles City Around 5 am. Got to my hotel called the Hidden Pearl. A complete piece of shit. Quickly killed my week reservation with them and got into Red Plant this afternoon. So had one girl I talked to a couple years ago on DIA, come to the hotel. We walked around went back to the hotel and went for the rest of the morning. Very fun girl a little on the thicker side of pinay's But so much fun. Has a nice big ass. She left cause she had to go to work.

Went out for a short work to try and learn about this place and walked passed Baby Dolls. Remember reading about it so stopped in. A few fellow Man in there with a good two hand fulls of girls. Feels a little weird walking into these bars since I am still in my 30's and most of the other guys are old enough to be my dad. But found 2 nice ones I likes. Bar fine as about 1700 a piece. So I took it and went back to my hotel. I told them it was going to be only for a short time. But they were perfect. Anything and everything was game. So a very good threesome was had. With finishing on both their faces. Now it is 9 pm. About to walk down to Barnana, Where I have another freebie from DIA that want's me to come see her. Also Will go see my one from when I first got here. She has a girl she works with that is bi, and has been wanting to get in her pants. Told her she can do that when I am here. So will bring them back tonight when they both get off.

Will post pics of the first two when I get a better signal.

I always tip the girl 300 peso if she offer good GFE service and stay until the morning, also I like to offer them small gift or Chocolate bar most or take them to the mall for a movie, most of this girl have a tough life and the bar owner don't paid them much.

[QUOTE=Dg8787;2025274]I usually hire a car and driver from AC to Manila before leaving for home from NAIA. I am exploring if I want to fly from Clark to Boracay and Has anyone ever done this? Is Boracay OK for a few days.[/QUOTE]Boracay is wall-to-wall Koreans in a tourist trap. Pretty water and beach, but once you've seen it. Our preference is either Bantayan, Malapascua, or Camiguin (which has an airport for quicker access).

If you have a couple of extra days to be taking planes, taxis, buses then boats sure it may be paradise. But from my research Boracay was literally less of a headache trying to figure out the logistics. Also in a lot of other places a halfway decent place to stay cost a lot more.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2029207]But from my research Boracay was literally less of a headache trying to figure out the logistics. Also in a lot of other places a halfway decent place to stay cost a lot more.[/QUOTE]What research is this? Camiguin has a flight from Cebu. Or from Cebu, its a taxi ride hour-and-half to Hagnaya pier for a ferry to Bantayan. For Malapascua, charter a bangka if you're short on time. There's no shortage of excellent hostelry in any of these places, many European-owned. And there's half decent things for a budget tourist like yourself. Siargao (with an airport) is also nice for a few days. El Nido on Palawan strictly for the scenery, but its infested with Isrealis.

For me AC can be described as disneyland for men. There are lots of filipinas to ride. If you go on the same ride too often it gets boring.

So for my most recent visit I was met at Clark by a repeat performer from a previous visit. When I say performer she knows to dress well for the return of her beau and to look like she hasn't seen her lover for years. In AC you can have whatever fantasy you want.

She takes me back to the hotel and it really is game on from 40 minutes after Clark touchdown.

Other highlights: Lollipop bar seemed to have some good stock of girls and the head dancer seems very tight. Took one girl from here.

Tropix I am starting to also like as a regular. Over two night took one dancer and one waitress from here. Barfine 2 k and 3 K (white / green badges).

Platinum (Perimeter, old Firepit) I needed to take some company on a trip to Manila. BF'd two girls so that my preferred girl would not feel the need to entertain me while I am working. In the end I kept these girls too long and I sent them on their way when I returned. I think barfine was P2 k each.

Also caught up with some callbacks from earlier visits.

Pregnant girl is now 6 months gone and she's still so horny. Always reliable and happy to turn up on time and leave when asked.

One dental assistant had a second date and she's still being hard to get. Decided to cut my losses on that one.

I had taken a Pinalove paid subscription for one month. Didn't provide any additional value to me. Sort of just a different pool of mostly P4 P. Have cancelled subscription and moved on.

Also took the opportunity to shutdown and simplify my various FB profiles.

Happy days, will be back soon.

As I've said before here, I'm not a great fan of AC, as for me it's basically a slum surrounding some bars, and thoroughly mediocre restaurants. However, I do like hanging out with a friend there, and so returned--as always to ABC Hotel--after an absence of about 6 months. Aside from the Aqua Club at the top of tower 4 at ABC, nothing much has changed from what. I saw. Same bars--though some with different names--same mix of punters (perhaps a few more Koreans on Walking St. and at the hotel than last time--and same hit or miss bar scene.

The Aqua Club, on the 9th floor of ABC Tower 4 has, I think become the "in" place in Angeles. The ladies love it; it's pretty crowded all day long, with guys spending huge sums of money to party with their ladies in the cabanas, the public hot tub and the infinity pool. Even during the week days, and the week nights, it attracts a fair number of FLs, typically better dressed and slightly classier than those found elsewhere. I'm told on the weekends the situation improves dramatically regarding FLs, but decided not to stay to test the theory as 2 nights is my ideal stay. The Aqua Club is however, the nicest night spot / bar I've seen in Angeles, and clearly puts every other venue to shame. On the other hand, it's more expensive than the other venues, and if you're up for the "point and click" ambience of a gogo bar, then probably no need to go. Last night, despite a heavy rain and a strong wind, the jacuzzi that forms part of the bar was full with 2 Korean dudes and 5 ladies that they had acquired. They were drinking a lot, and I didn't see anyone hit the rest rooms, so I leave it to the collective imagination of this board to conjecture where the urinary output from all those drinks ended up.

I did hit WS for two nights running, and found the mix of available options about as I had remembered it. A few skinny / no baby girls mixed in among those whose best days were long behind them. Patience pays however, and I was not disappointed on either night, finding one at Atlantis and one at Insomnia who met my search criteria.

Yesterday, for the first time in years, I went on an afternoon crawl on Perimeter with a couple of friends. It was good fun and there were in fact a couple of ladies in Garfield, Candy Bar and another the name of which I can't remember that were take-away possibilities. I had fun just goofing around and it was a relatively low cost, enjoyable afternoon, with a morning beginning with a first-ever breakfast at the VFW, which was pretty good.

I arrived at ABC on Wednesday afternoon, and the hotel was fully booked; not a rare occurrence acccording to some of the staff I know there. Tower 4, the newest addition, usually fills up first apparently, and there are evidently lots of guys willing to fork over Php7,500 a night for the suite rooms. The dominant demographic still appears to be North American and European white guys in their mid forties to late fifties, but there are increasing numbers of Korean guests and some Japanese as well. I'm fairly fussy about hotels so I doubt I would ever stay anywhere else in that city.

My overall impression of the city hasn't changed much. I enjoy two to three nights there, but three is my upper limit of tolerance.

As a regular visitor you know how to touch the parts of the city you like and avoid the parts you dislike.

Aqua is good for the ladies and I have always BYO so far. I too have noticed the increasing number of filipina hopefuls that are turning up at Aqua. My impression was they were girls with real jobs rather than freelancers. I haven't tried to chat them as I was with a lady.

The food at Aqua is quite poor, as is the dinner fare down in Vari Asia. Given that as you say the hotel is a full house, the restaurants rarely seem to be.

BD.[/QUOTE]Agreed, About the best thing you can say concerning the food is that it won't make you sick. The selection hasn't changed in years, the wine list is pathetic, and the overall food quality is mediocre. I was actually discussing this with one of the foreign managers of the hotel, who is well-aware of the complaints. The restaurant is operated by a concessionaire, and for reasons no one quite understands, the hotel owner is reluctant to replace that company with another. The reason, I think for the virtually empty restaurant is that better quality at cheaper prices can be found elsewhere.

Grab cars have expanded quite a bit in the past two months. The driver told me there is over 40 cars in AC now. 2 months ago there was a hand full. Seems like the minimum fare is P120. From Savannah Hotel to Marquee Mall was P120. Trikes would have wanted P150+.

It is the law of supply and demand working at its best. The trikes have gotten the prices high enough for Grab cars to enter the business. I would short the stock in trikes as I think this will be the end of the high trike prices. Grab cars or similar ones are here to stay.

I just priced a trip from perimeter to CRK airport and it is <P150. Typical car service was +P300. From CRK to perimeter was the same. Last 2 times the cars at CRK was sticking to P500.

I am thinking and hoping that the trikes and cars have just priced their demise.
