Not to criticize, but your format is not recognized in Google Maps or Google Earth, which use the decimal equivalent. Unless there is something I don't understand.

....Also, it's quite difficult to get to 100-30-59 N so swap north and east.
Sextile does a remarkable job.

-- I'm sure that you are quite correct with your system; but the Google Earth that I've downloaded deals in Degrees, Minutes, Seconds & two decimal places; hence my prefering that type of format.
- But it's not too difficult to change from one to the other.

-- A regular visitor from the USofA. has given me to u'stand. that today, (01st.), a'noon. ChinaTown's one remaining cinema was remarkably busy.
- While most of the patrons were into their 40s. and older there were quite a few younger members to be seen.

I went there for the first time a few days ago and there were 3 younger ones. One let me suck him a little. The second did a little feely-stuff. The third was very handsome and sat there talking with a slightly-older Chinese, and when they were done, I sat next to the younger (and very handsome native Thai) one. He was very friendly. I rubbed his right leg and it seemed very slim. Eventually I figured out that he had a slight physical deformity where he walked with a limp (because his right leg was slimmer). He earlier had talked of meeting me the next day at my hotel (Pinnacle) and he wanted to stay with me. I was thinking of committing. Then he went outside and had a cigarette, and I thought, "forget this." I almost always avoid smokers. My life experience has told me, the red dot means STOP (this "red dot" thing originally comes from a totally different, derogatory racial put-down that I'll not get into here).

My impression was that all 3 younger ones were regulars there.

I went there at least 7 times (I saved the stubs) on my recent 12-day stay at Pinnacle Hotel (which is a short walk).

The first visit was great. I think I got there around 12 noon, and immediately sucked off a masculine, hard-bodied, young guy who was standing at the back wall to the right side (if you're facing the back). It was amazing: when he saw me, he felt his crotch, and everything immediately clicked. Shortly after, a young student-type came in and stood by the entrance for a long time (I guess for his eyes to adjust). I stood near him and kept looking at him, and eventually he sat, and let me sit next to him, and feel him, and I sucked him a long time. He never came but an older Thai who was behind us watching advanced up and took my place next to him and I could tell that the older Thai was going to play with this younger one forever (you know the type). I had lesser-fulfilling sex with a few others. Then, I could tell that it was time to go (the feeling that the day is over for that place--the feeling that hardly anyone new is going to come in). Sorry--I don't remember what day of the week this was.

Last Tuesday was also very good. I got there around noon. Within less than 45 minutes, I sucked off 3 younger ones (one of which was working on another one), and had less-fulfilling sex with another two (nobody came).

My impression is that you have to get there before noon. Other days were total losers (but I had only stayed less than an hour and sometimes less than a half hour). The whole psychology of the place changes after 12 noon. And it seems totally different depending on the day of the week. I did go there once later in the afternoon and it was overrun by the bitchy types (or by sit-queens who just want to sit, and sneer if you walk by and try to look at them).

wantasian, this cinema you mentioned near Klong Toei is walking distant from Pinnacle Hotel, is it just a short walk after the traffic light intersection? thanks.

Quote |

Here are directions: It's maybe a 10-minute walk from Pinnacle Hotel. Walk south-east on Rama IV on the same side of street as Pinnacle Hotel (against traffic), then you cross a very main intersection with a freeway, then past Klong Toei subway station, and continue until you see the green K-Bank sign. Turn right down that wide shopping-type soi (which the K-Bank sign faces) and you'll see a big cinema on the right side (a short distance down the road (but almost at the end)). I'm looking at my map and don't remember if I crossed the main road Thanon Ratchadaphisek or not (but I seem to remember doing so). But all you need to do is walk until you see the green K-Bank sign (you won't see one earlier except near Pinnacle)--so that's the intersection where you turn right.

On my recent trip, I twice checked out Prince Cinema near Saphan Taksin. I don't know how anyone would find it without exact directions.

It was not good at all.

I still think Phahon Cinema by Saphan Kwai is the best.

Is it worth checking out the 3 cinemas across the river (walking from Wongwian Yai BTS stop)? I understand from earlier posts that there is Chalerm Giat Cinema, Hawaii, and some third one.

You don't have to walk as far as Tn Ratchetc. As you say the soi is RH side and has a big greeg K bank sign if you ar walking away from Pinnacle. If going be MRT then take exit one. Went there today. Sucked a very sexy guy... Be prepared for total darkness when you first go in. It took me about 10 mins before I dared to walk at all. If you are smoker you will use your lighter as many did. Straight American porn good quality picture but the Americans should stick to 'war' and leave 'love' to the French...

-- Today,(07th.), a'noon. I went-to THE STATE CINEMA. OUT in SAM RONG.
- ETA.: 13.hrs., (hoping to catch any lunch.-time visitors in for a quickie.);
- Adm'n.: 50.Bh., (60. Bh. for those arriving & parking their own cars in the forecourt.),.

-- I followed a young-looking & Thai:Chinese man along the soi and into the cinema, but lost him as the tkt. clerk took so long to give me my change.
- Possibly another dozen spectators therein?
- All films were hard, ortho-sexual & Chinese porn..
- Initially no success at all - certainly not flavor of the day/week/month or whatever.
- Eventually the a/m. Thai:Chinese man & I met; after a while he suggested that we go to the toilets, with wch. I agreed. What followed may be written later - but suffice it to write that he was 'Ready, Willing & Able.'.
- I stayed until approx. 14.30.hrs. and the above was my only success.

-- A couple of points for the Health & Safety conscious -
1.- The curtained ent'ce. into the actual movies is not at the back, as in many another cinema, but right in the middle; one ascends a dozen or so steps. Thus it's probably better to stand there for as long as it may take until one's eyes will have adjusted to the gen'l. gloom and a rough idea of where the aisles etc. are.
2.- The only safety lighting of the steps UP and DOWN is by the steps to the spectators' RIGHT; I didn't count the steps UP to the back this time, but -from an admittedly amnesic memory - there are possibly 12 steps UP a small landing - on wch. there's a fan, (so watch-out!), and then a futher 16 steps UP, (again, watch-out for the 2 fans!), to the walk-around by the back wall. (My much earlier posting of this movie-hse. has an exact count - for wch. scroll back.),.
