[QUOTE=BlakTea;2839088]With the Buddhist lent religious holidays anticipated 1st & 2nd Aug 23, these will be dry days with most, if not all, bars / clubs closed. Therefore I assume the freelance scene greatly picks up on beach Road, LK Metro, Soi Buakhao, etc? I also assume the online hook up sites (TF, Tinder, etc) break the internet? If anyone is in the know (Pattaya & Bangkok) please enlighten me.[/QUOTE]No it's the opposite. They are important religious holidays. It's also a 6 day weekend so the beach will be packed with Thai families.
