-- Several days ago I was swanning-around various web-sites, directories and whatever else and encountered one >- Eight and a Half - SRINAKARIN Massage & Spa < that directed me to EIGHT AND AN HALF HOME SPA., wch. has three branches now -
1.- 85 GRAND @ Sukhumvit 52. - (086)-542 5888.;
2.- 85 SRINAKARIN 45, - (080)-733 6888. and
3.- 85 SUKHUMVIT 64. - (080)-772 9000.
- I remembered my abortive visit to 85 SRINAKARIN, nr. to SEACON SQ., (this thread posting #1,065., dtd. 09 sep 2010.:

-- I decided to visit #3. at S'VIT. 64., wch. I hoped would be reasonably nr. to BTS. On Nut, (E9.),.

-- Dir'ns. from TESCO-LOTUS - Sukhumvit 50. -
1.- Leave T-L. and turn RIGHT so that you'll be walking-away from Central BKK., (the SkyTrain will be on yr. LHS.);
2.- Immediately after BTS. Punnawithi, (E11.), S'vit. 64. is on yr. RHS.
3.- Turn RIGHT and walk-along soi 64. until you'll see -
3.1.- Above the soi a black on yellow traffic-diamond with flashing amber lights, with the farang letter T turned COUNTER-clockwise, ie. the stem is pointing to your RIGHT
3.2.- RHS. : street-sign - white on blue - 64 ... 4.
3.3.- LHS.: SEVAKORN MASSAGE;
4.- Turn RIGHT and walk along Yeak 4. for approx. 290.yds. when you should see -
4.1.- RHS.: a large bldg./constr. project;
4.2.- LHS.: a pr. of double gates painted a dull red ; the number 41; at the end wall a child's type of windmill with four sails painted blue, white & red.
5.- You have arr'd.! My ETA. was approx. 16.30.hrs..

-- Inside I was welcomed and offered a glass of iced water;
- Looking-at their menu I chose my usual & 90.mins. oil-massage for 600.Bh.; there were several other choices such a Scrub & ... , Four hands' massage etc. etc..
- While we were discussing the choices eight masseurs filed-out of some back room and sat-down awaiting my choice;
- I asked for a masseur who is strong enough to give me a firm massage for the full 90 mins. and who does not smoke ciggies.;
- The young man asked me if I were a Top? (1st. time that I've been asked that so directly in a massage parlor.),. I temporised by asking for one who likes to be smoked - possibly a safer choice for one's first visit?
- I was assigned to masseur Paa, (or maybe Taa?), 21.YO. who has worked there just one week. A smallish young man but with a pleasant enough face. Speaks just basic English and not a conversationalist in that language.

-- We walked upstairs to Room #3., roughly 6'. x10'., std.sized massage-table with no cutout for one's head; walls extend UP to ceiling, but the wall at the foot of the table has a cut-out just large enough for the shared air-cond..
-- There is a clean & shared shower/toilet room - bottle of diluted Listerine available; no toilet-tissue but an ablution hose; shower has adjustable faucet to give warm to cold water.

-- In the room the masseur was awaiting me with a towel wrapped-around him;
- A good & firm massage with plenty of attn. being given to my feet, calves & thighs; LESS so to my back and after I'd turned-over v. little to arms and to torso.
- At the right time his towel fell-down revealing a soft & smallish appendage wch. swelled-up to about a std. & Thai issue member.

-- I showered alone both times.
- Total time from entering to leaving the massage-room was just over the 90 mins..; I felt that he had earned his 1K. MINIMUM TIP..

-- Downstairs I chatted with the owner and enquired why there was no sign o'side. the premises? He replied that living in a residential neighborhood he prefered not to advertise so openly but to rely-on his web-site and word-of-mouth.
- Learning that I live-in BANG RAK he suggested that 85 GRAND S'VIT 52., BTS. On nut, might be MORE convenient for me. I darewrite that I'll take a look-see in approx. four weeks' time.
- He handed me his Business Card on wch. is written the web-site > http://85callenter.hi5.com < E&OE.!
-- Possibly a bit too far to go for those seeking a massage but without a specific masseur in mind when there are many MORE closer to home - as it were. But more than likely I might return in the not too distant future?
