[QUOTE=JD Wordsmith]Great post and useful information, thanks. One additional tip: if you take the expressway as Bunky suggests, when you get to the first toll booth (25 baht) the meter should read approximately Bt141, give or take a couple of baht. If it's significantly higher than that (remember, at the *first* 25 bt booth, not the second 45bt one!) then the meter is rigged.[/QUOTE]
Or you can go upstairs to the departure gates. Go outside and get in a cab that has just arrived and either negotiate to go by the meter or 400 baht and the driver pays the tolls. This is what I do regularly.
No 50 baht surcharge.

Beergarden
Stayed in Beergarden today.
Met a girl called "Pat" but she insists she doesn't go with a customer on the first day and also not from Beergarden. She always takes the guy from the Disco's afterwards.
She is quite slim, with really small boobs but has a very nice body and a pretty face. She seems to be a Beergarden regular.
Anyone know this girl, tempted to meet her again tomorrow. Worth it? Worth it to stay with her longer?

Oh gosh, a buck seventy surcharge to take a taxi from the airport. We should boycott Thailand over this.

Taxi
[QUOTE=Member #2041]Oh gosh, a buck seventy surcharge to take a taxi from the airport. We should boycott Thailand over this.[/QUOTE]
You are missing the point......many times the taxi queue is quite long and you can literally wait up to an hour + for a taxi......if you go upstairs and jump in a taxi that is dropping off passengers there is no waiting. I have done this many many times myself. Shadow6491 was trying to give some useful information which you had to flame. This forum is for sharing useful information and we should not flame when it is useful.

[QUOTE=Hookup09]Is it possible to set up a bank account in Thailand if you are a resident of USA?
If so how would you go about doing this?[/QUOTE]
Been covered many times before. Search in the General Thread.
Try Kasikorn Bank (Thai Farmers Bank). Its easy.

[QUOTE=Mouse1]Yes, indeed. And from Paris there is Air France, from Sydney there is QANTAS, and from Heathrow there is BA. I however was in Delhi.[/QUOTE]
You got what you deserved.. a few clicks, using Opodo or other similar sites would have shown the long list of airlines ( other than AI) flying direct from Delhi to BKK: Cathay, Jet, Kingfisgher to name a few.. All better than AI.. Not much useful for now, I understand, but maybe next time...
But I am sure you have forgotten all this while you enjoy BKK.

For what it is worth I use Kayak extensively to identify the most appropriate flights. My business trip which brought me to Delhi was only confirmed a few days earlier. I then looked on Kayak for the earliest affordable non-stop flight, and the AI flight at £221 return leaving 2h40min later, arriving BKK at 7.30pm was fine. The flight was delayed, otherwise perfectly acceptable.
Anytime you want a job as my personal travel agent don't hesitate to offer.

If its the Pat I know she has not been working in the Beer Garden for perhaps 18 months. She went up the food chain and exclusivly was picking up guys in discos, like Climax, where some men fanatasise they are not picking up Beer Garden girls. When in fact its correct, its all "ex-BG" girls who now realise how to get more money per man (dress better, go to disco, get more money).
Small, small boobs, pretty, speaks some English. All I can say is if it is the same Pat she is really lovely until you get her into bed and then its just disappointing. She has had far too much cock inside her and has become pretty much "immune" to sexual feeling.
Its not bad, and she loves DATY, but if you compare the performance from Mango girl or a horny non-pro, you would be dissapointed, however, give it a go, nothing to lose and it may not be the same one.

[QUOTE=Bunky]It has been awhile since this topic was updated, so I thought I'd post a trip report. Hopefully it will be of some use to future visitors arriving at BKK for the first time.

Thanks for the informative report.

She didn't like DATY. But yes maybe she changed or whatever. Performance was not that great. Seems to have some Boyfriends spread over the world as she was quite busy with her two phones.

As I think we mean the same girl for sure, did you try GFE with her too? I mean you stayed with her longer or was the sex so dissapointing for you that you checked her out after 1 night?
May I contact you somehow or do I have to pay the 20 $ for sending an private Message? I think you live in BKK right?

[QUOTE=Mouse1]Worried that I might be mistaken for a back-packer, I had a haircut today in Soi 5.
The youngish lady who cut my hair (and gave me a manicure) had a nice smile and a nice body.
It turned out she lives next to my hotel down darkest Soi 4. It would have been rude not to ask her out for dinner.
I'm meeting her tomorrow evening. Do you think she will bonk on the first night?
Thailand, eh? :)[/QUOTE]Well did she?

Where in Thailand is she from?
