[QUOTE=SnowKoala;2091455]When I go out drinking I have a drink, then softie, then drink, then softie, etc so I don't get drunk and still good to ride the 1 km home.[/QUOTE]This is what I do in Pattaya and it works out great. I think I'll pop in a rental agency next time I'm in AC.
[QUOTE=Streetlooker;2091314]EARLY WORK RELEASE. The term took the place of Barfine when the raids started happening.[/QUOTE]Thanks! So how do we get something added to the abbreviations list? .
Never mind, got it, and submitted. Cheers!
[QUOTE=Kurre;2091413]With my 185 cm and 100+ kg frame I find trikes a bit uncomfortable. Rides are short but it takes a fair amount of twisting and turning to get myself seated. Also for a party of 2 or 3 one trike suffices but if you have three ladies in tow it gets a bit crowded even with one lady riding behind the driver.
I found the shuttle at Boomerang Hotel very convenient and the drivers calm and reliable. During my visit in February I used it for all my day-time errands as well as going to the mall. It ran only until 21.00, though. Looks like Grab beats the trikes for night time transportation.
Do any of you AC regulars ride your own or rental motorbike? I know the traffic is a chaos but at least you are a bit more in control of your ride than inside a trike.[/QUOTE]Grab beats trikes in day time too. You can go from perimeter to Marquee Mall for the minimum P120. Also it is an air con car with seating for a minimum of 4 passengers. Some drivers have a large SUV. I love it because I have a prepaid account and never have to dig into my pocket for the right amount to pay.
Also I use Grab to drive the girls back home in the morning after a LT session. Trikes usually charge P150 to go from perimeter to Dau or Mountain View area. Grab is still P120.
I have used Grab to pick up girls at their house and bring them to my hotel. Pretty timely.
Also I use Grab to come back from the malls. The trick is to use the mall’s free WiFi for the connection.
Btw, I use Grab extensively in Manila. One time I had an AC girl come visit me in Manila the day before my flight home. We went to lunch, to Global City, to Mall of Asia and back to my hotel using Grab. Each time I would use the app on my cell phone. She did not know about Grab and actually thought I was texting my own extensive private car service! I could not convince her it was a taxi service because each driver would greet me by my name.

In AC the drivers do gossip to my passengers and make stupid unsolicited comments like "Is this the same girl you brought home last week at 3 am Sir?
I've since changed my name to a less obvious name as well as rotating to a new account regularly so they lose the travel history.

Basic scooter is P300 per day, discount for longer rentals. From a financial point of view, breakeven is basically 3 grab rides.
The benefit of the scooter is that you can explore different areas of AC. With Grab and trikes you need to tell them your destination. On the scooter you can just drive and look, stop where you like.
Scooters can also get you onto Clark Base to explore whereas trikes are not allowed.
SO they are the benefits. Now after riding scooters around AC for the past year I am only using Grab during the week. The drama, poor driving of the road users and risk of serious accident is just too great. It's worth me paying twice as much to have the benefit of a relaxing time sitting in the back, checking messages, chatting to my partner and arriving fresh.
Enjoy your trip.

If they did it wouldn't bother me or the girls. The girls all know I butterfly around and in some cases even bring a new one to me.

BD.[/QUOTE]If you take your scooter into Clark, then you need to wear shoes and of course helmet. Wearing Flip-flops around Angeles city is fine, but not in Clark. They won't let in if you don't wear both.

BD.[/QUOTE]Thanks for the tip! I remember walking past their shop on my way to get a massage. I checked out the website and I see they arrange dirt bike (if you can call a CRF250 L that) tours in the area. Now, that would be a perfect daytime distraction. Certainly would steer thoughts away from the chase for a while.

I am a one-week millionaire when in AC, the cost is not so much a factor as is safety and comfort.

I'm still not sure if I will be there at the same dates as you. I'm sure we can find some friends for you.
[QUOTE=BrainDrain;2091903]I'm sure we can find some friends for you.[/QUOTE]Always happy to get acquainted with friends of my friends. Let's stay in touch about those dates.

An entire evening perhaps, from the time you want to depart your hotel (say, 9 pm) until the latest time you would possibly return (say, 6 am). That way he's waiting wherever you happen to be, sitting just up the street whenever you txt for him to come move you from point A to point be. As he's renting the vehicle for an 8- or-12-hour shift, obviously you are paying for that + his profit. Probably 1500-2000 p will do it (other gents, is that in the right ballpark? And there is no meter running.
Renting a bike is always an option, but the heat / rain will make each ride an over-moistened experience (save that for the hotel room).
Walked into Ponytails, I noticed the skimpy bikinis only show off the extra fat most of the girls are sporting. One new thing I had not experienced before was the massage girls who provide free shoulder massages for a tip. I am not sure if these gals are just too new to be a dancing girl but they are available for take out. A mid 20's gal who was new to the place (3 days and had not been taken out) had a very fun personality and a girl next door look. Maybe she was not a dancer because she was so short. I interviewed her, was intrigued by has naivet, bought her a drink and we were soon out the door; Php 2000 EWR.
This one turned out to be a very good kisser, had a compact body and huge nipples. She gave me a full massage (very mediocre), we showered up and into bed for a round of DIY, BBBJ and positions I liked. After a little rest she followed up with a BBBJCIM. Hilariously, she wanted to ask my permission to run to the bathroom to spit out by just pointing at her mouth without being able to speak. I hope she learned to get the tissues onto the nightstand next time. It appeared she never had used a condom before. I opened the pack, she stared with wide eyes and had no idea what to do with it.
I was tired from the earlier in the day arrival after my trans Pacific flight and sent her home rather than have her stay overnight.

In every other bar the waitresses come around doing it. Shit feels damn good too.
In Thailand I had 2 body massages and 1 foot massage. In the Philippines I had 1 body massage. None of them felt that great or relaxed me.
But the PH bar waitress massages relax the hell out of me and I nearly fall asleep and no where near drunk. At my hotel a bargirl ran her nails through my hair for just 10 minutes and fell asleep for 10 minutes with no alcohol. So sadly I can not get those wonderful massages because soon after I just want to go home and sleep.
