General Reports

I recently had to do an extensive Thread Search. The forum thread search function is not at all easy to use really, and especially hard to search for text strings that are short.

I thought I would just republish for newbies the best way to search threads for past posts based on a specific search text or two. This was first published by Nic Frenchy (so we are indebted) I believe.

1. On the top of a thread (to the right) are two tabs. One is called Thread Tools. Click on that (not on Thread Search).

2. Click on pull down option "Show Printable version".

3. Top Right click on option: "Show 1000 post (s) from this thread on one page".

4. Note the date on the top of each page (first post) and whether the order is chronological ascending or descending.

5. Use the page selector on top left to pick "1000 posts page" that seems to be around the desired date range.

6. Use Control-F to pull up a text search box, and type in exact text to be searched for possibly including spaces and punctuation markes.

7. Keep using repeat find Next or find Previous functions till get to what you are looking for. Otherwise move to another page of 1000 posts.

Using this method I see to be able to find whatever I am looking for, who posted it, and when. It does not provide the normal method for quoting one of these posts however. I use Advanced Thread Search when need to do that and quote the poster handle.

[QUOTE=BananaBoi;2266390]I see so many old Farang with their shirts folded so they show off half their belly, wearing shirts that they bought 10 years ago when they were 20 kg lighter and now they fit like Saran Wrap, see guys with clothes so outdated that even my Dad wouldn't wear them, seen guys with cheap 200 baht sandals, seen wife beater tank tops, seen shirts with food or blood stains on them, seen guys with short shorts on that look just a tad larger than a Speedo, etc. I always try to guess which ISG member it is when I see these guys.

Guys can say all they want about clothing but I RARELY see a guy who is dressed like he doesn't care with a TOP girl. Of course if you look like a GQ model which I highly doubt any of us do, you can dress any way you like.[/QUOTE]The picture you painted seems to be the British retiree spending his golden years in paradise. I don't try to guess who is an ISG member because it may ruin my evening thinking what they may think of me LOL. From this thread I am assuming that all the guys with Victoria Secret models on their arms dressed in Armani are the members LOL.

36 days and counting and first stop the tailors to get my 3 piece suit ready so I can impress $20 hookers.

[QUOTE=BubbaBoy;2266283]I already have about 6 well researched samples and have just added some Sagami 0. 02 Large size for my next trip in 2 weeks. Thanks for the advice NB.

While on a Japanese condom site I noticed that Okamoto, which is apparently Sagami's main competition in the premium condom market has a "001 0. 01 mm Zero One Large Size Condom". I grabbed some of them too. They aren't cheap though, only come in 3 packs and cost about US $12 (Yes US $4 per condom) compared to just less than US $2 for the Sagami's.

All up I have 8 samples (1 to 2 dozen of each) to try and am in for about $200 in condoms.[/QUOTE]Hey Bubba Boy, looks like you are really prepared for action. Last trip I brought along 3 dozen Sagami 0. 02 L's and a 1 dozen Lelo Hex. I paid around $1.50 US per unit for the Sagami online and around $0.75 per unit for the Hex direct from Lelo. In LOS the Sagami's retail for around 70 baht per unit.

Like I said, I prefer bareback when available and when the girl passes my visual and olfactory standards. Still, in 72 days of mongering in LOS, Yangon, CGK, Sin, Macau and HKG averaging 1. 3 girls a night I went through everything I brought and needed to go out and buy more. 555. Good thing Sagami 0. 02 L's are sold in Jakarta.

Let us know which condoms you liked best and more importantly where you found your favorite girls. Stay Thirsty.

[QUOTE=Smoothy;2266336]This is the most interesting topic I have seen on here in a while. I'll have to check those out. I normally use the Trojan NaturalLamb condoms. Have you tried those? Is so, how do they compare?[/QUOTE]I have never tried the Trojan Natural Lamb product. But they sound interesting. I will give them a try.

[QUOTE=Gapoox;2266347]I agree both Sagami L and Lelo Hex are great. Sagami is probably easier to get in Thailand though.

Have you tried Okamoto 001 XL? Personally, it's the best condom I've tried.[/QUOTE]No, but I have tried the Okamoto 0. 02. They were ok, but I prefer the Sagami 0. 02. I will look for the Okamoto 0. 01 XL and give them a try at some future date.

How can they call a condom XL when it is only 46 mm wide?

Even the Sagami 0. 02 L is 58 mm wide (and still uncomfortably tight).

[QUOTE=XXL;2266829]How can they call a condom XL when it is only 46 mm wide?

Even the Sagami 0. 02 L is 58 mm wide (and still uncomfortably tight).[/QUOTE]I haven't tried those, but I did try these Aoni ones recommended by a buddy in Jakarta. I found them to be very uncomfortable and I am as small as they come. They went straight in the trash after one session.

[QUOTE=BubbaBoy;2266283] Snip.

Should be able to get same price delivered to Thailand.

I bought Sagami 0.02 L 3-packs (36 units) on Amazon and I paid $47.80 total or $1. 33 per condom with free shipping. However I see Amazon no longer sells Sagami. Don't know why. I still have 7 or 8 Sagami's and a couple of Hex left over from my last trip. I guess I will just show up in BKK and restock there at my favorite pharmacy @ 840 baht for a box of 12 ($26) or check Ebay

[QUOTE=XXL;2266829]How can they call a condom XL when it is only 46 mm wide?

Even the Sagami 0. 02 L is 58 mm wide (and still uncomfortably tight).[/QUOTE]XL is just marketing bullshit like are names Trojan, King etc. The Okamotos 003 in 7 Eleven are definitely less wide than Durex Comfort that I used to use by a significant margin. Feels like less than 52 mm standard. I found them hard to get on, until I worked out the technique to put fingers from both hands inside the condom to stretch it, and roll it down keeping the fingers stretching all the time, ending up with no bubbles. It is Japanese size, not even long enough really maybe length is 5 inches at the most when on stretched a bit. Fortunately I don't have extra broad dick, AFAIK, not that I have been doing a survey. Can't take too much notice of what GF says, as her experience maybe limited. LOL.

I tried the Sagamis as well and found them more difficult to get on than Durex Comfort (56 mm). I just don't like them because they don't stretch at all and go on wrinkly, defeating the feel of a very smooth fuck for me. So Okamotos will be tighter but a nice smooth feel for me. I don't really care that full length of dick is not covered. Seems to stay on pretty good, generally. Any condom can break though if hit by a sharp nail, or abraded by a sponge, etc.

The worst condoms I ever used were called London. Less than 52 mm I believe, very thick and strong, and difficult to get on. Used by girls in Germany a lot, but I refuse to use them since they queeze the dick too hard and leave very low feeling.

If a girl will not allow me to use Okamotos 003 or other variations these days, I will probably cancel unless she is just too hot to ignore. Even Durex Comfort is definitely inferior feel in my opinion. Obviously BBFS is better still, if risking it with very limited girls for me.

The one thing I love about Jakarta is the availability of freelancers in BATS & CJ's.

Wondering if there is any such joint in BKK / CM? Heading over to Thailand next week for my annual obligatory visit and would like to spend time with freelancers vs a pro wg.

TIA,

Chuday.

.[/QUOTE]Sure, just head over to Spasso in the basement of the Grand Hyatt around 11 pm. If no one strikes your fancy head across the street to Mixx in the basement of the Intercontinental at around 1 am. But first RTFF. There are many reports on these two bars. I call them 5 Star Hotel FL pick up bars. You can expect good service, a better grasp of English, well dressed/well coiffed, higher priced and a older age demographic, especially with the Spasso girls compared to Go Go girls for example. Thurs, Fri & Sat nights sre best.

Thermae is another option. You could call Thermae a 3.5 star Hotel FL pick up bar. LOL, since it is in the basement of the Ruamchitt Plaza Hotel. I call Thermae a meat market. But Thermae FL's are younger and less expensive. And there are a TON of them on any given night.

So what is the difference in your mind between a FL and a pro WG? There are plenty full time FL's and part time FL's. All three types rent out their pussies for money. 5 star Hotel FL's might be considered more polished. That's all.

Yes they are still hookers, and makes so little difference to us, other than we don't know for sure if freelancers will show up.

It is so simple really. A freelancer is in control of her own working days and hours, and can turn up when she needs to or wants to (perhaps within some limits), does not get a monthly salary also. Some bars may set a rule: Don't show up after 9:30PM limit. Oilies may set time spans that can be worked and make girl state in advance which days will be worked. Does not really matter if is in a bar, Soapy, Oily, Beer Garden, Thermae, street walker, disco, etc. However obviously some of those alternatives have only freelancers.

A bargirl with a monthly salary that will be fined for non-attendance is clearly not a freelancer, or is ambiguous in that may get a salary only some months of diligent work. Some girls do not get enough customers to survive as freelancers and need the monthly salary.

Freelancers can be part time hookers if they choose, or can be diligent and work every day like some girls standing on Soi 4. One of my old favourites at Crazy House, Donut (Bpaeng) used to only work weekends and not all weekends because had studies in another province during the week (most weeks). Oom, another regular of mine at Crazy House hardly ever turned up, in the recent years. These girls would not get a monthly salary, but both good looking enough to be accepted whenever turned up. I believe many bars try to minimise the level of freelancers, because the line up fluctuates so much and may not get enough decent girls on a Saturday night for example. I have heard of girls being asked to change from freelance to working properly, or otherwise to leave.

Always good idea to collect a LINE contact for freelancers, so can check if they are working.

Soapies used to have a girl category called "sideline" girls which seemed to mean something like freelancer. They may have had a different price to the base level girls.

Freelancers have to put up with a shitty boss a bit less or not at all. Some mamasans or bar managers are really horrible people hard to stand. Bargirls have the ability to refuse potential customers as well. They can state that they are not available to be fucked right now. This can have some influence on the level of respect we have for the girls. Even street walkers can completely refuse customers.

Oily and Soapy girls can refuse a customer in an extreme case but they cannot make a habit of it, generally. This may influence some girls to work in a Gogo or as freelancers.

Pin now works on Soi 4 street. She used to work at Boss massage. Has pleasant face and slim but very curvy body with implants. Skin not very white. She definitely appeals to Farangs and maybe Indians, not so much to Japanese. I asked her why the change to freelancing on the street, since she still works every day (by choice). She indicated simply that she gets more customers and makes more money. I guess not many girls on that street have the body to compete with her. ET did not like her service so I don't know if she gets lots of repeats or not, but others have been happy with the session, including me. I don't normally do street walkers that much, due to weak and rushed service and crappy bodies for the most part.

Still it comes down to being satisfied and value for money.

IMO, the best, and most frequently ISG recommended Sukhumvit area pharmacy is closing "next week". I stopped in on Saturday and he volunteered that info. I should have pinned it down to the day but was too shocked to ask. I asked if he had lost his lease and he said no, new gov't policy. So, if you are here and had planned to stock up, giddy up.

It is sounding like government crackdowns are extending to Pharmacies, so would be interesting to know if is tax avoidance, or selling medicines with no scripts, or selling patent violation generics, or exactly what is the problem. I already know this pharmacy refused to sell suspect hormones. Perhaps
C4 T.[/QUOTE]OMG,

I presume you refer to Charoen Pharmacy.

Are Pharmacies are getting tougher licensing requirements to be allowed to operate, or must they belong to chains paying kickbacks to the government officials, cutting out some of the larger independent operators??? Perhaps premises does not pass some new standard?

Could not find anything in the Thai news. I wonder what medicines will have sales more restricted, if any? I will try to get there before the closure if possible to ask more details, if they are willing to tell. Unfortunately can't make it before the 2nd.

Suggestions of the best alternate pharmacies might be welcome.

Can you get Xanax without a prescription in Thailand? It's impossible in the Philippines.
