I go to Walking Street quite often and tonight was the first night I noticed the Chinese tour groups in droves. I arrived around 8:30 pm and there were group after group after group of Chinese tourists to the point where you couldn't walk. Even last night I didn't notice them much.

More people need to post! I hate putting a bunch long posts, one after another, out there at once, but got to catch up!
snipped[/QUOTE]I really like your reports. They are honest and real, and by far not as self indulgent as those from some others who post a lot here.

The real question tho is: who has ever pulled one of those lovely girls from one of those Chinese tourgroups? Now that's a good challenge for anyone!
But yeah. It's getting a bit out of hand. They are full of little kids too. What a holiday for them.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2096225]500 baht is the normal price for ST on Beach Road.[/QUOTE]Since about 2015/16, the going rate on Beach Road is 700 baht, with a few of the prettier ones refusing to go under 1000. Sure, you can still find an occasional ST for 500, especially if it's getting late or business is slow, but it's not the price most will normally take.
500 used to be the going rate for many years, since early 2000's at least. Funny how 500 is an extremely sticky number (and so is 1000).

When it got to the point I had to walk for hours looking for hot pucci that's not taken, while dodging tour groups and baby carriage's, I had enough. I have done Patt only once in 5 years. The next time I go am bringing my GF!
How do you tell a Thai girl you have had a vasectomy, so she doesn't freak out if a condom breaks?
I have tried the word vasectomy and got blank looks and then made a sign of scissors near my nut-sack, still no comprehension.

[QUOTE=FLHawk;2097094]Sorry I am running late with these reports guys. I am trying to step it up![/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=FLHawk;2096014]Trying to get caught up guys.[/QUOTE]No need to apologize Hawk. You are there to get laid as much as you can, not to write as much as you can LOL. It's your HOLIDAY, so enjoy it and don't feel pressed to write (long) FRs.
I used to write long FRs as well in the past (on a Dutch forum for the most part, and sometimes on this forum) but I gave up on it when I realized it took so much time that it was ruining my holiday.

I'm staying on Soi 8 now and the bar girls have not been as good as last time hoping the drought ends soon. Tinder has been very good as has Soi Diana.
FLHawk.
Great trip reports. Looking forward to next instalment.

Chinese tourists were up five-fold last night vs. the entire week before. I doubt it's the Moon Cake festival effect that occurred over 2 weeks ago.

It's this neat website you can go to and write English and it will then display Thai. You can use it on this nest thing called a smart phone or computer.

Did talk to Mrs. about her female dogs ought to be neutered. Having puppies arriving was a nuisance.

Click on speaker symbol to hear the words spoken by a lady.
Tricky to pronounce correctly as has a rising tone (which I did not even know myself having heard the word rarely). I have heard the term "Tham man" (sterilization) only in relation to animals before I think but it still works for humans too. It does not require the detail of exactly what is done. "Man" has at least 5 other meanings, with other tones. LOL
We want sex to be "man" or even "man man" (flat tone sounds like "Mon" as in Monday) meaning fun, entertaining, and interesting, and feeling that it is full-on, perhaps the simplest way to say like a GFE in Thai. A Thai girl might use this "man" to indicate a deep involvement in the Ghost story Movie or a song or a game, or whatever.
The big problem is that saying we are sterilized, won't really reassure girls. They will assume the guy is bullshitting. Only useful info for a wife really.

Jokingly, I just tell them with hand gesture "cut cut no juice " seem to work? Whether they believe is another subject. Personally, I don't care what they tell me, if they take the pill etc. Recently a regular tells me she had her tubes tied a number of years ago. No matter how much the little head wants it I cover up less headaches down the road. I tell them, I butterfly I protect you.
