- I enquired after Khun Nong and a man raised his hand: shortish and broad shouldered, round and cheerful looking face.
- Query: As there are two Khun Nongs there how does a visitor distinguish between them to obtain the right one?

Sextile,
Thanks for your warmth. It is appreciated.

Now, on to your query about Khun Nong. The man who raised his hand is probably the one you want. The "other" Khun Nong is quite short and thin and has some hair on his chest. The "right" Khun Nong usually has his head shaved and is broad shouldered and cheerful looking. He has quite a nice body. He is DEFINITELY worth seeking out. He also generally stands in the front and centre...so as to be noticed. He is WELL worth finding.

I checked out Arena at 1.30 pm and there were about a dozen men available.The captain had ducked out so a masseur with not bad English assisted me as best he could.Unfortunately he was not familiar with the sex-roles,capabilities etc of his co-workers and when he suggested he ask the ones who were active or passive and other indicators to put up their hands I shyly declined.

The line-up was not bad at all but I thought I would delay my selection for another time.I did notice though that a former Albury star who hails from southern Thailand is now working there.

On departing to the lift the guys relaxing and smoking at the door could not have been more charming.Nice Thai guys.

This report is 2 to 3 weeks late - sorry, but connectivity and lethargy have been winning of late.

Went to Senso Men (midway down Soi Saladaeng) around 5pm one weekday afternoon - easy to find from the BTS.

The lobby is really nice and a bit 'boutique hotel'-ish - I wish my apartment was half as well finished.

There were 5 boys lazing around, all smiled and acknowledged me, but no hard sell or pressure. The mamasan showed me the menu, pretty much all of which I have forgotten. I think, however, 1 1/2 hours cream massage was around 700 baht.

All boys were of a similar type - all late teens/early 20s, physically athletic and fit looking. I chose Tim, 20, from Issan, with a wonderful swimmer's build of wide, broad shoulders, trim waist and wonderfully smooth, lean torso.

The massage room was, like the rest of the building, done to a really nice finish. It has en-suite bathroom and a wardrobe for you to place your clothes.

The massage started with a shower, with Tim joining to make sure that all the little nooks and crannies were clean and sparkling.

Excellent massage, nice and firm, nice and exploratory. Tim was certainly no shrinking violet, and was more than happy to follow roads less travelled...

-- I have been info'd. by a web-acquaintance from another site that PHOLAND, Soi Ngam Duplee, has CLOSED; reported as being because of INCREASED costs and falling revenues.
- The above is 2nd. hand info.; I haven't checked it out personally.

Another rumoured closure is V-Club at the end of the year when lease expires.Rumour sourced from former masseur.

Any confirmation ?

Went back to give Adonis Massage another try after a disappointing experience about 3 years ago. Its location is as convenient as ever, in a cul-de-sac off Soi convent, about 10 minutes' walk from the Silom Road junction.

The boys here are now bigger and taller than what I remember from the previous time, some of them in good shape. One particular guy had a well defined V-shaped body. There were about 13 - 15 guys available around 3 pm.

Oil massage price: 500 baht for 1 hour, 600 baht for 90 min.

Milk oil massage: 550 baht for 1 hour, 750 baht for 90 min.

Rooms had en-suite shower, but shower stall was small.

Massage was done on a narrow bed without face-hole, so while the height and width of the bed enabled a good massage - low, wide beds, which are becoming more popular in newer establishments are actually the worst possible design - the lack of a face-hole was bad for the neck.

I took a guy called Awd from Surat Thani. Beefy guy, but not tall. He gave a good strong massage including neck and head. Followed with quite a hot session, which was unfortunately limited by the narrowness of the bed.

He joined me for the post-massage shower, but again, the size of the shower stall was so small, manoueverability was a problem.

On the whole, he's good and I rewarded him 1500. However, the facilities were less than satisfactory.

The least satisfactory part of the experience was the duty manager (mamasan?) - I believe his name was "Id" or something like that. He's a straight guy (the masseur confirmed this to me), who looks like a tuk-tuk driver and behaves like one. Not once did he even smile. He offers no greetings or courtesies but goes straight into discussing the prices. His lack of "style" seriously jeopardises the brand. For a brief moment, I felt I was dealing with a gangster, and I had to suppress the urge to turn around and get out as fast as possible.

-- He commented that looking-in the Recept'n Area appeared to be in v. good condition, (he didn't check-out any of the rooms.); while the half-a-dozen or so masseurs whom he saw seemed to be 'Superior.' to the usual run of such people.
- Prices seemed to him to be 'High average.' - but the MINIMUM TIPS. suggested for an hour's massage was 1,000.ooBh.!
