    The first time I used Sildenafil the love making lasted 45 minutes and the member stayed hard throughout.

    Apologies for the dirty language for those of a sensitive nature.

    Not even in my youth could I achieve such results.

    The title of the thread was in the style of a detective novel.

     

  2. I believe in a few years time Pattaya will start to look a lot like Sihanoukville in Cambodia. The number of tourists from mainland China will rise dramatically. Escorted tours that stay at high end hotels, spending vast sums on money ripoff entertainment venues, food buffet restaurants, and overpriced gem/souvenir outlets. Reality is the ageing westerner is gradually disappearing.

  3. After watching this video a few times, I'm still unsure what the alteration was about. There has been a lot of speculation about the cause, but that's all, no real evidence as to who is the guilty party. Until CCTV footage from the Subway carriage is downloaded and viewed, then it is wrong to draw any conclusions.  

     

    The tourist does say the word 'eyepiece'. so maybe he suspected the native was secretly filming him or someone that he knows.

    How long before the Indians just pay Thai girls to work in brothels, happy massage, or nightclubs in India, for wealthy Indians? 

     

    Much the same way Thai hookers are working in The Middle East, and in western countries. 

    Thai massage parlours exist in the far East like Korea and Japan as well. The women are very well paid compared to what they would earn in Thailand.

    Yes very misleading, he's probably an English teacher, lol. We all know dissidents are treated so well in the land of scams, lol. 

    Perhaps what he means is he concerned about Vietnamese citizens who exercise free speech using social media platforms is offensive.

    Should I inform Vietnamese authorities of these undesirables, that is of their indigenous population I come across on my travels ?

    Could someone please explain ?

    Maybe I'm looking into this to deeply.

    I just saw a story from Vietnam, too.  Teacher given 11 years for Facebook posts..how long will it be before they realize Thailand is dumping its undesirables on them.  You know the saying.. Don't cheat a cheater.. Perhaps the only nationality better at cheating than the Chinese... 

    Please correct if I'm wrong, the teacher who was prosecuted was actually Vietnamese.

    Saw this on another forum: "Just had a wonderful vacation in Vietnam, prices 30% cheaper than Thailand. "

     

    Vietnam is a good example to show there are alternatives to Thailand. 

    There are many other countries to choose from -

    Philippines 

    Cambodia

    Laos 

    Myanmar

    Taiwan

    When Airlines start offering cheaper flights, maybe even non stop flights to these countries. This will motivate tourists to travel elsewhere. 

     

    I was looking on a popular travel website that had a 1 Stop flight from London to Saigon, less than 15 hours each way for just £511. Ironically that was with Thai Airways.

    Step outside nice and cheap accommodation like this in Ho Chi Minh City, and your food, beverage, transport, tourist activities, and "fun" is also nice and cheap. 

     

    The question now is: "Why would anyone bother going to Bangkok when Ho Chi Minh City is so close?" 

    Your right, I feel Bangkok is so much more expensive now. Whilst just an 1 1/2 hours away by plane, you have Ho Chi Minh city. The flights are quite cheap, it's possible to book a return from Bangkok to HCMC for under £100. Last time in HCMC I stayed at a very nice guesthouse for £15 per night in the heart of the city. That is now not possible in Bangkok.

    Can't blame Thailand for your home currency being TP, can you?

    There are plenty of nice restaurants that have food at reasonable prices, but you just haven't found them yet.

     

     

    I just arrived in pattaya and will be visiting my favourite restaurant Cafe Petini on soi buakhao. The food they serve here appears to be of a high standard I think. 

     

    On the subject of beer. I was passing through Korat (not much to see here, just being honest) and visited one of the few bars in the city. The drinks menu at the bar displayed a massive selection of bottled beers from around the world. Surprisingly the price of each bottle was between 200 and 250 baht. No way will I pay that much for beer. Anyway there was a pub next door called the George and Dragon which I visited. It had a nice selection of drinks at a more reasonable price.

  9. There have been a lot of demographic changes in Pattaya since I first came here 7 years ago. Walking Street now seems like Russia Street (especially the southern end), next to this there appears to be a mini Istanbul. Write Europeans, Americans, Australians are indeed a minority. I have a friend who goes there regularly, who refuses to accept what has happened, very strange indeed.

  10. I like Pattaya ,to visit.Don't want to live there

    I would echo those sentiments.

    Yes, I agree to.

    Pattaya is great for a bit of shopping, a visit to the dentist, or the opticians, and maybe a quick jiggi jiggil. and that's it.

    The longer you stay the more you will spend.

  11. Hey swordficsh--did you even make it out of Pattaya? Sounded you required a lot of directions cheesy.gif

    Just wondering, dude

    errr yeah, hilarious...

    am i missing something?

    but anyway, for those who are interested:

    i've done this same trip for ten years.

    but knowledge is power, and maybe there's a better/easier way. glad this caused you so much enjoyment, Jesus.

    (do u ever get the feeling that some peeps need 2 get out more)?

    - motos only option: baht buses not running yet (@ 0545 hrs). B50 to Sukhumvit Rd.

    - get up to Sukhumvi/Klang rd bout 0610 hrs

    - catch red & white bus (#99) arcanely marked 'Bangkok - Chanthaburi' @ 0617 hrs

    - despite the fact that it continues on from Chanthaburi to Trat

    - B 170

    - 5.5 hrs from Sukhumvit to Trat bus station

    - B120 minibus from Trat bus station to Hat Lek/Cham Yeam

    - business visa (tru cost $25) cost me $25 + 200 baht premium. believe it or not, this was cheap...

    - $3.15 for moto from Cham Yeam to Koh Kong (including toll)

    - good room in Koh Kong (wifi, cable, big tv, view, fan, comfy bed): $7/night (Dara Thmey g/house)

    - bus to snooky $7 @ 0720 the following morning (Koh Kong CBD)

    voila

    - no bus service running (in low season) from Pattaya bus station to Trat

    - couldn't find minibuses from Central festival to Trat

    - couldn't find buses from (just south of) Big C to Trat

    thanks folks, i'm here all wk (just for you, Jesus)

    This is similar to journey I usually take to from Pattays to Koh Kong/Cambodia.

    Wait at the bus stop at the intersection of North Pattaya Road and Sukhumvit Road - a 2 minute walk from Pattaya Bus Station.

    Catch any bus or minibus that comes along, Rayong, Chanthaburi or Trat, they all go in the same direction :-)

    Ps. There are regular buses from Rayong and Chanthaburi bus stations.

    When you arrive at Trat bus station catch a mini bus to the Hat Lek border crossing with Cambodia.

    On the Cambodian side of the border crossing you might get some hassle at immigration, please be patient. After you passport has been stamped, do not pay the taxi driver any more than 300 baht to Koh Kong village.

    There are many Hotels to stay at in Koh Kong. I usually stay at the Koh Kong city hotel which has great views overlooking the river.

    (although I would not recommend the food at the restaurant next door).

    Note 1. No need to get up so early, just make sure you are standing at the Pattaya bus stop by 10.00am , you will probably arrive at Hat Lek border by about 4.30pm

    Do not worry if your late as the border crossing closes at 8.30pm.

    Note 2. You have to stay one night in Koh Kong as buses to Sihanoukville leave at 8.30am in the morning.

  12. I clearly didn't feel seriously in danger. I did feel UNCOMFORTABLE. And there was no way I was comfortable announcing my nationality on that bus as I did feel doing so might make the situation dangerous. But I didn't feel like there was a compelling need to get off the bus either.

    I understand some westerners can sincerely talk about how you hate western policies towards the modern Iranian regime. I can't because I don't feel that way and I am not a very good liar, sorry!

    You're assuming all the Iranians here are anti-regime.

    Nope. Not all are.

    Just because they are drunk and with bar workers doesn't prove they are anti-regime either.

    Hello there. I have 2 questions.

    1. Were these Iranians pointing at you with outstretched arms ?

    2. When they laughed were they making eye contact with you then immediately with one another ?

    If the answer is yes, you would have every right to feel uncomfortable.

  13. A couple questions to you all.

    Are these Jet Ski operators actually organized criminal gangs who use extortion to obtain large amounts of money through coercion e.g. threats of violence and kidnapping ?

    Are these Ski operators aided abetted in these unlawful acts by a corrupt police force and government officials ?
