Imagine living in Bangkok, one of the best cities in the world, and contemplating spending your birthday at the Cherry Bar in Pattaya. It says everything really - the Jade Goodie of Pattaya forums. :scotty:



More like An Idiot Abroad.


Rumour is the next series will visit Aussie.:sailor:

This from a man who lives in Pontyfrachmegogoglangwellyn.:wierdthread:


The best thing to do during the day in Bkk is visit Ekkamai bus station and buy the 70b ticket to :patters::train:

What exactly do you think I should have achieved then? I'd really like to know the answer to this one.
I've upped our sales by over a million Euro's this year. Must be doing something right.

Bangkok one of the best cities in the world?????
Are you joking?
Why is it? What is there to do here that's so good?
It's a shithole. Are you going to tell me about river cruises and 5* meals past the golden palace? Vertigo hi so resturants and wine bars that have waitresses flying on wires serving wine?
Cleopatras and hi class massage parlours that have models to fuck.
5* hotels. Ex pats who know it all.

You seem to forget I do that shit and get paid for it daily. My expenses last month were over 100,000 baht.

I can think of Chatuchak market and Cold Stone ice cream shop and that's about it in Bangkok. The rest of it is a nightmare. The traffic for starters would ruin any normal person. The P4P scene is crap here. Pattaya is a 100 times better and that's why everyone on here goes there and doesnt stay in BKK.

Not a single person on this board came to LOS for any other reason that fucking whores. You can put a twist on it if you like but that's why your here not because of Thai culture.

If Thai girls suddenly decided they hated falang men not a single person reading this would ever go to LOS.

I would rather be with my mates in CB on my birthday to be honest.

I'm booked into some yuppie 5* shit place this weekend with my boss. If I could swop places I'd much prefer to be staying at 500 baht Thai Tong Villa and taking a bird LT from Soi 6.

Maybe I am Jade Goody

You could start by cutting down on your xenophobic rants by making some effort to integrate and stopped blaming everyone for your own shortcomings. You're here in their country, it's up to you to make the effort to adapt, not vice versa. The days of the Empire are long gone.

But you can't post a letter or order a pizza.

I think it's got a head start on Maidstone.

Why are you rambling about tourist places and running down 5* hotels and massage parlours? They are options among a whole host of things going on in BKK in any given week. Do you have some sort of inferiority complex about them, or what?

100,000 Baht? It's around 2 grand FFS! Is someone meant to be impressed, or what?

Anyway, luckily for you, the 5* places usually have a guy in the bogs who'll help you if you can't manage a piss on your own. Just don't expect him to have change of a 1k Baht note when you try to tip him.

It suits your argument. Unfortunately, besides being patently untrue, it doesn't prove anything whatsoever.

You have no idea whatsoever why people came to Thailand. There's thousands of guys (and women) in LOS for whom the P4P scene is way down their list of priorities. As you pointed out yourself - it's more difficult to buy a decent pair of shoes (for some) than it is to fix up a threesome with a couple of pornstars.

Why would TGs in your local 7-11 suddenly decide they hated anyone, let alone farang men. The very idea of it is silly.

Pretty much the same as every weekend of the year.

You obviously have issues - nobody mentioned anything about yuppie 5* places as you call them. Why are you slagging them off?

Thai capital named 'World's Best City'
Relaxnews
Friday, 8 July 2011


Thailand's capital Bangkok has been named the world's best city by influential US travel magazine Travel + Leisure.

Announced as part of its World's Best 2011 Awards issue to be published July 22, the prestigious title was awarded based on the votes of thousands of Travel + Leisure readers who voted for cities around the world.

It is the second year in a row that Bangkok has been named in the top spot, despite a period of civil unrest last year which did considerable damage to Thailand's international reputation as a tourism haven.

ROLAND 07-12-2011 06:24 PM

We've done this one before....:rolleyes1: In reality, the traffic flow is a damn site better that it was 20 years ago and it's going to get even better when the skytrain and underground networks extend out towards the suburbs.

Nope, that's just your opinion. I spend a lot more time in Bangkok than anywhere else, so your argument falls flat in this case. :fish:
