Giotto's Lodge in Bangkok

[QUOTE=Giotto]Tansak KTV,

I don't think that is possible - the board members are very busy.

The year is 2008 - clear. Let's start with a month. [b][size=+2]April??????[/b][/size]

Anybody here in April? [Sonkhran, Water Festival, 13.-15.04.2008]
...[/QUOTE]Dear Board Members,

Nobody wants to work? Only interested in the dungeon? We have some serious issues to discuss [e.g. we need to approve the investment for a new g-string for Emmy, that cannot wait too long] :) ...

[b][size=+2]May??????[/b][/size]

[QUOTE=1Ball]May probaby could work.
PIT, don't worry about the G-string for Emmy. Piper had it bronzed, after tearing it off with his teeth. I am sure we will be able to get it back, with payment of a LB BJ from Nana.[/QUOTE]

That explains the increase in the price of bronze on the market.

I have to tell you great minds think alike. I was just about to post that in addition to a collection for the new G-String we should buy G a supply of depends. Of course we would need to make sure Mrs. G knows hot to change them :-)

Yes MAY!!! I am not even sure who all is on the board. I have met a couple people and talked to one or two others (yourself included) but would love to meet everyone and have a party the likes of which the Lodge has never seen.

Mid May sounds plausible.

Sorry, will miss your 100th B'day, Dr. G. Will see you on the 26th or the 27th morning. Flights from Delhi are totally booked to BKK. Too many Indians.:mad:

I'll be there late June for the extraordinary AGM. I forget my formal role on the Board. Last time I was there, Giotto offered me some fancy-titled role on the Board, but I told him I don't like responsibility, and asked if I could be the janitor instead. :D

Janitors have to actually work!

[QUOTE=Petemcc]May I enquire how business is going? As you know I am on Pattaya sites and business owners have been complaining for about 8 months now about poor numbers and losing business.
...[/QUOTE]Petemcc,

Just found this report, sorry for the late reply.

Basically the business is ok. The occupancy of the hotel is still rising, but the reason for that might be that we are quite new in the market.

Overall we also observed that the high season this year was not as it was years ago. The tourists entertainment centers Soi Nana and Soi Cowboy were by far not as crowded as in many years ago. The rising baht and the military coup 15 months ago might be the reason for that.

The numbers of walk-in customers here in Soi 33 (restaurant + bar) is declining since years. This road has lost a lot of reputation within the expat community because of some rip-off places, which are overcharging customers in many ways. Some bars are doing this on purpose, in others girls are working who play their own private games, and the management does not stop it.

For us the business is still good, but it could be better.

[QUOTE=Revcolinn]...
After reading some stories of poor experiences, starfishes, reluctant participants etc I have questions.

Are there mamasans who are still attractive still in good shape that will do LT if they fancy a customer anywhere in the Soi 33 area and if so do you have a range of price that one could expect to pay.
...
[/QUOTE]Revcolinn,

Yep, I read the reports about star fishes, too - let me give you my take on this issue.

I sometimes get feedbacks from customers about experiences with our girls. And the feedbacks are generally mixed, for all girls. There is not a single girl for which I have ONLY positive feedbacks ... there are some customers even complaining about our successful girls (Ms. J, Ms. T).

The quality of the experience depends primarily on the chemistry between a customer and a girl. And it depends secondly on the customers expectations. If somebody expects that the Livingstone's girls are somehow specialized sex machines - no, this is not the case. We train them how to dress, how to make up, how to behave, how to take care of a customer - but are not getting involved in anything what happens between a customer and a girl in the rooms or outside in other hotels or apartments!

You can find GFE girls here (as well as in the other hostess bars in Soi 33), and if both of you like each other you will most likely not sleep all night. If for some reasons this sympathy cannot be established the girl will behave like a starfish.

If you are going for some special sexual experience do not necessarily expect that from the girls here at Soi 33. They enjoy sex and provide service more in the way a regular Thai women does. The girls working in the massage parlours, BJ bars, Tulip or Eden Club are much more into that, you better then take girls from there then.

Mamasans: To a certain extend a Mamasan is more experienced because she is usually older. That's the only difference. Can be a hit or miss either. I know that in some bars here in Soi 33 (Renoir, Napoleon) the Mamasans can be bar fined and go LT.

Hi There DR

Thanks for the response. I thought maybe I was being ignored. LOL.

Lets get one thiing straight. I am a 54 year old average looking bloke. Libidinal for sure but the days of 10 hour marathon sex sessions are fading and I am quite pleased about that.

So my need is certainly not for any sex machine but for at least a warm willing participant. Of course your point about chemistry is well understood.

I would like to avoid as much as possible (and not so much from the financial point of view) but rather the real pain of having to spend an extended time with someone where there is obvious tension and angst in the room.

I have no doubt that my needs can be found in your establishment.

At this point I can hardly focus on my patients all I see is the soi, LL, eden, tulip and what this will bring. So 3 weeks to departure. The authorities here tell me that I can only take a certain amount of wine on the plane so prepare for a bottle of Pinotage and and a bottle of CAB SAV both from Thelema.

Regards

Rev

I think you meant to say:
"There is NOT a single girl for which I have ONLY positive feedbacks" but you accidentally put a "don't" in there.

Too many negatives?

You are right, damned English :) - I corrected my report below.

OK, only a few people have chimed in about a Board Meeting in May. I am all for it and would love to get as big a group of people as possible. I know a few people who, while not board members, would be great to see again and party with (Mr. Toes?) So I would say that something should be organized for May. I would also suggest that in addition to a party and maybe one of Mr. G's "Bangkok by night" tours, maybe we organize some daylight activities such as Golf, overnight trip to Pattaya, etc.

Am I off base or is there interest out there? Any other suggestions on things to do?

PIT

Passinthrough,

If you mean me by MrToes? I won't be able to make the meeting. It would be a great meeting to attend. See the inner dealings of our Board of Directors. I will be reading the outcome from the sidelines. I have to work and make the money back that I spent. I am going to book my flight for Jan-Feb as soon as they will let me which is a few more weeks. I can't miss the Big Birthday Bash. It is a long way away (to long) but maybe we can plan the motorcycle tour we talked about and I would love to get a couple games of golf in this time. PM me with any plans.

Thanks

My friends,

Thank you very much for all your support.

I decided to delete the related reports - I think this is simply not the right forum for this issue. I was overwhelmed with emotions yesterday ...

Will get this thread back in track in the next days. Life goes on.

Good to have friends out there :).
