[QUOTE=Traveler1234]I quietly exited the bar at 10 pm to sleep and heard the Mrs. call my name....will make sure to get her approval later today.
Let's plan on going out tonight for a drink and 10 pm show, even if Mr. TQM is busy with his girl....I fly out to see the family early Thursday morning.[/QUOTE]
If going to SW, then little Miss J is recommended.
She is probably the best dancer, swaying sensuously like a snake.
Does a few shows too.
[QUOTE=Giotto]Sonic Bam,
The next matches are on Saturday (if I checked correctly), Wales vs. Scotland at 9 pm (not sure, I have SA times in the schedule) and France vs. Ireland at 11 pm.
Giotto[/QUOTE]I will try and make it, assuming I can figure out the schedule (is it SA time or BKK local time?), on Saturday evening for a game.
Cheers
Maybe I'm way behind times but did part of the web site change??
Anyways, this part of the site looks fresher and cleaner.
[url]http://www.livingstones.co.th/boutique-lodge/index.php[/url]
and loaded up faster for me too :)
The old site directory

Still loads up so so so slow for me....
[QUOTE=Duniawala]...
The Bar is quite busy and the girls love to eat, drink and be merry and beat the shit out of you in pool. I was beating the Marketing Director till he teamed up with one of the ladies
On another note, a lesson learnt (again), the more beautiful a girl is, the more disappointment you will get. Think I will stick to the ugly ones.
...
[/QUOTE]Sir,
LOL, yep, I made the same experience before. And I don't pick the most beautiful ones either - it usually doesn't work out.
We didn't make it to Soi Cowboy - everybody is simply too busy. A few games of pool, some chat in the bar, and then some issues come up again. High season, the hotel full, a completely new set or problems.
Yesterday we were overbooked - the first time since we opened. Agoda had simply send 2 more customers, though we had closed the contingent. We organized 2 rooms to fix the problem, occupancy right 10x % yesterday :).
Then the Dragon came in yesterday night, Chinese New Year. Noisy, jumping around and collecting THB notes from everybody ... as usual.
Busy here at the moment, very busy.

Cheers[/QUOTE]Pheasant,
Yes, that was my problem, too. I think the time for the Wales vs. Scotland game was 4 pm South African time. And I added 5 hours - which might be wrong, i checked it with a time zone website, it should be 7 hours difference.
That makes it 11 pm on Saturday, when that match is starting.
Somebody there in South Africa, who can confirm this?

Wales v Scotland kicks off 2:00pm in Cardiff (I'm flying there this evening for the game, hangover booked for Monday and Tuesday) so 9:00pm Bangkok time.
South Africa 2hrs ahead of UK and 5hrs behind Bangkok. This ties up with what you say below:
2:00pm UK time, 4:00pm SA time but 9:00pm Bangkok.
Pheasant, good luck explaining the rules to the ladies and Giotto - I think he had problems with cricket let alone rugby.

Giotto[/QUOTE]Giotto,
OK, here we go - according to this website: [url]http://www.rbs6nations.com/en/home.php[/url] the first game is at 14h00 local time (Scotland?) and the second game is at 17h00 local time (France). If I am not totally mistaken, that would make it 21h00 and 23h00 BKK time? Anyone care to confirm?
Cheers.
[QUOTE=Sonic Bam]Pheasant, good luck explaining the rules to the ladies and Giotto - I think he had problems with cricket let alone rugby.[/QUOTE]I find explaining rugby to non-fans relatively simple ". Take ball, run accross line and plonk it down, tackle only man with ball, no obvious punching or ball-grabbing etc. " we'll see how I get along. I believe Thailand has a 7s side? I think I have seen them at the HK 7s?
As for cricket, now that is a whole different story, I agree. I think you need to be born into a cricket country to really understand it. I manage to get by having lived in such countries for many years, but I get blank-stares when I try to explain both the concept and the joy for the game.
Have fun in Cardiff!
Cheers

LOL, I finally understood Rugby ...
And even Cricket - had some Indian guys coming in during the Cricket World Cup, explaining to me all the rules again and again - damned is that a boring game.
I still stick with football (soccer)!

Yes Mr G, unfortunately I have convinced my wife that I need to spend more time in Pattaya at the end of June( to use up my annual leave), and I shall have to spend a night in Livingstones.
I very much look forward to it, having seen the facilities, and can but ask that you have your best girls set aside for my perusal, for the want of picking one for a romantic dinner and night of horizontal aerobics, because the smoke thing and me doesn't mix.
I look forward to your esteemed company, and a good night, which will probably be spent in the bar rather than the bed, knowing our affection for Wheat beer.
Cheers

Hello friends,
I have been traveling and with out internet for a little while so I have a lot of catching up to do but first I want to post about the tour or tours.
Last Night Mr. G took a couple of us on a tour of the seedier side of Bangkok after hours. We headed out after 1:00 AM and our first stop was for a burger outside Nana. The cooked meat was the best thing out there, with the lady boys coming in a distant second. The parking lot had more guys looking around than girls and half the girls there were tying to sell beer. I have read a number of reports about how great Nana parking lot is after hours. All I can say is that must have been a long time ago. Now it is full of sat and desperate looking guys and girls that are the fourth tier at best. It is not worth checking out again.
From Nana we walked across Suk and made a pass through the Grace Hotel and the famous Coffee Shop "If you can't get laid there you can't get laid anywhere in the world" I believe that is true, but the real question is "would you want to get laid by anyone there?" The hotel is filled with middle age men and handicapped beggers. It has a smell of age and misuse. The girls, at least I believe most of them were, made Tammy Faye Baker look tasteful. They wore tons of makeup to hade everything and were old and fat. Not the best advertising. From there we walked around and through the Arab section which has restaurants that smelled great and were recommended by Mr. G. We walked over to the Beer Garden which was closed and past many of the "highlights" of Bangkok. We went into Spice Club and I thought it was pretty nice.
Spice Club is a late night disco not far from Nana. It was packed and the music was blasting. The base was so loud that you felt it as much as heard it. There were a lot of really good looking women in there drinking and walking around. They were not being aggressive in finding company but they were available. I got the impression that they were there for fun but if someone showed an interest they would say goodbye to their friends in a heartbeat. The location of the club is a bit seedy but once inside it was a lot of fun. From there we walked past dozens of food stalls and down some small alleys with people trying to entice you for a massage or other things. It was a view of Bangkok that I had only see small parts of but which is fascinating.
Thanks Mr. G for the tour. I am happy that the lady boys chose someone else to hit on (no not G). :-)

LOL, we need some details about how you convinced your wife that you need to spend some more time in Pattaya! Can you please write something like a manual, I think many members will be grateful for good advice :) .
The best girls - hmmm ... how can I know - I think I better stay out of this decisions. But smoking, we talked about it, starting on 17.02.2008 you are not allowed to smoke inside any airconditioned bar, restaurant, disco in Thailand any more. I think we will follow this new law, and the Sports Lounge will then be smoke free then. What do you say, is that good news :) ?

OK, I just read the last couple weeks posts. That Party that Mr. G put on when my friends were here was great. We came to the bar around 11:30 and I immediately kissed the girl I have been BF'ing since I got here. My friends sat down for drinks and were introduced to some nice girls. One guy wanted some classic music which Mr. G was only to happy to provide. Before the night was over one bottle of Mezcal had bit the dust, a lot of beer went down throats and there was a lot of dancing and singing going on in the bar. I feel sorry for anyone trying to sleep. My friends who were staing at another place all ended up taking rooms in Livingstones (Thanks G for helping them out). What a wild and fun night.
I am honored to be a member of the Board, but CFO? I don't know I think I would raise the prices... just kidding.
It was great meeting Traveler1234, a really great guy. I hope your golf game went better than the time with your girl.
I am back for a few more nights in which I hope to get Mr. G drunk as a skunk. I didn't know the 14th was his birthday, this could be a very interesting night. It does figure he was born on a day dedicated to love.
Oh well off to the pool (and it is still clean)

She offered her honor and I honored her offer and all night long I was on her and off her!
wow this forum sure has changed. i havent logged on here for nearly 2 years. anyway, i must be one blind bastard. i am in bangkok just for 2 days and thought id check out livingstones. i vaguely remembered it being on soi 33, so i got myself dropped off at the start of the soi and walked up and down twice. but didnt see it. i walked past peep place, teen massage on the right, then a hotel on the right all the way to the t junction at the end. so i came back and decided to check online for location and yes it is on the soi. bah old age must be catching up with me. anyway i shall be returning in april for a holiday so this time ill make damn sure i find the place.

That is the best news a non-smoker can have, seriously. Maybe now I can make my own choice of room mate for the night.
As for convincing my wife, well, that's a difficult one. I was up-front with her from the start and she saw how happy it made me. Despite my overnight rental, who I am sure you will admit was cute, I have no intentions of destroying 25 years of an otherwise good relationship for a pipe dream, therefore I told her that I am fucking Thai girls because I can, I won't be bringing one home, and she is still my number one. As well as that, she realises that I will not stray back home because I have Thailand to return to. Straying back home is fraught with danger because it is too close, and too much chance of getting caught in a menage a trois. Therefore, for a woman who realises that her husband may stray, overseas straying is a good alternative.
I'll pm you with dates as soon as I know.
Looking forward to it.]
Cheers
