Yes I agree with there being fewer cruising boys than formerly.
During my last visit in March I wanted to pick one up, but there were none I was attracted to. However the Rit concession has wifi and was able contact rather a nice one from Gayromeo. Sitting with him on the beach admiring his tight body in speedos made me soooo horny.

... I recently got a Samsung pad and added Grindr.
I find the guys on Grindr tend to be more regular Thai guys, (not Isaan Laos,) 25 - 35, employed (real jobs not bar boys) and just looking for SEX not money !

I went to Dongtan Beach yesterday as the weather was good.
In the afternoon there was several attractive boys around. I caught the attention of one of them who sat with me. I took him to a small guesthouse who have short time rooms for 300 baht, as I didn't want to return to my hotel in Boystown.

The boys are back on the dancing tables at Krazy Dragon (Sunnee) and CockTails (aka Tom Yum) closed again.

Last night Krazy charged 140 for a beer / soft drink. I don't think the boys expectations have changed- all donations are gratefully expected

Yes Eros and Happy both in full swing, but its VERY quiet here at the moment being the end of the European summer hols and the pre high-season lull.

However on the subject of drinks prices, the Thai government has just today added a whopping tax increase that will have a 5 to 10 bht impact on beer at retail level, but a huge effect on imported wines - around 20 % on cheap wines and doubling the cost of premium wines. Of course Lao khao (responsible for most of the drunks, road deaths, binge drinking) is virtually untouched so the Thai booze barons will get even richer while the locals kill themselves in even greater numbers as they abandon their recent foray into wine drinking (at 12% alc) and revert to Lao Khao at 40%. alc. T.I.T. !!

- As 'Our man in Pattaya.' - You may remember that HAPPY PLACE used to run Boys' Bingo every 22nd. of the month, wch. eventually stopped and something similar was started by EROS BAR?
- Does EROS still run that sort of event and, if so, when is it? IE. - on a fixed date every month, a set day of every month or whenever the fancy strikes?
- Thanks in advance for yr. reply. --
