  1. Been thinking about it, I'm going to change my first answer to "NOT SURE."

     

    Two earlier trips I came away with a terrible sore throat and swollen lymph nodes. Cipro cleared it up quick, and I didn't test positive for anything to date.

     

    Did I have something in my mouth I shouldn't have???:mellow:

     

    I always have sore throat due to time in the plane , I suffer from ear infections as well...


  2. Hey Lotus,

    I have been considering getting one also. Just to get your take, why is it better than a laptop? Without flash, is the web difficult? Porn? Posting here?

     

    Thanks!

     

     

    Way better than a laptop, took it to Bangkok and it was so nice not having to lug a heavy laptop , vie come across 4-5 sites that I like that need flash , but not a real big deal , and access to this site is easy as. Only. And the only real down side is it takes and age to charge the battery because of the 10 hours play time. But that's it


  3. These days, Sing air Perth/Sing run is only 2 seats each side and Business class size TV screens.

     

    On one trip, a Chinese guy had the aisle seat and I had the window, we were busy reading our Fin reviews and congratulating ourselves on having made a bit of money and that the middle seat was empty.

     

    Just before the doors closed, the biggest guy I have ever seen came and tried to sit between us.

     

    The Chinese guy said "Fuck off, you are too fat to sit here so fuck off"

     

    I couldn't believe it, the guy went to an attendant and found another seat.

     

    The Chinese guy looked at me and said.

     

    "That fat cunt was far to big to sit here!"

     

     

     

    still fucking funny 24 hours later :)

     

    Amazing what you can do if you have the balls eh!


  4. Last year I flew 185000 miles Air France, Business.

    My client has a policy of anything over 3 hours is Business so I am lucky. 3 trips were Rio to Perth return, the Sin/Per sector with Qantas. Qantas are very good Business. Air France is Ok, KLM on 747s are crap, and the seats are old, non sleeper type. BA is just OK.

    So all flights to BKK are stopovers.

    Air France has a calculator for your carbon footprint, mine was 29000kgs, I am exempt from guilt as I work in the oilfield!

     

     

    nice air miles points :o


  5. My 3 trips have been with JAL, EVA and China Air. So far they have all been comparable, depending on how old the plane is. Newer planes have the individual screens with games, movies and tv.

    Older planes just have what ever movie is showing. Also seating seems to be more comfortable on the newer planes.

    So far I like almost any airline better than a US based company. Food and service suck! Fat ugly stewardess..ok, done bitching.

     

    I always book an isle seat so I can get up and walk around as often as possible. It's 17-19 hours for me to get there.

     

    I will have to try Singapore after reading some of the other posts here.

     

     

    17 hours wow :(

    thats funny :lol:

     

    one of the girls in my office said she went home and got charged for have 5kg over her weigt limit for her bags, now this girl in around 60kg next in line was the massive family were the kids alone weighed in at 100kg plus. i thinks it time to weight the person and luggage and if your over you pay extra, or for really reallly *fat cunt* you buy two seats.


  7. I travel almost exclusively on Singapore airlines. I don't have the long leg problem LULT ;)

    I like their frequent flyer program, their kris flyer lounges, the timetable suits me well to and from Australia and the great service.

    But most of all, a very cute flight attendant was VERY nice to me once, she went above and beyond the call of duty. :P

     

     

    one day i want to fly business class ....one day... :(

    Me all i care about is not having to sit next to a massivly over weight fat slob who takes over my seat. Happened a while back on a short trip and i refused to sit next to the person, got a few looks but no way...


  9. @ KLW i am not claiming to have "superior knowledge" of BKK street food or any other topics regarding BKK or LB's.

    I am sharing my thoughts & experiences from my trip, just like everyone else.

    Thats the whole point of this forum, encourage everyone to post what they have experienced in BKK , what they like/dislike etc

    I respect what you & other BM's have to say & appreciate everyones perspective on all things LB & BKK.

     

    This is after all BKK LB FORUM not ""Wikipedia" :P

     

    cheers

     

    :D

     

    another good web site is sickipedia.org :D


  10. Did I say there was anything wrong with street food? NO

    Street food served in Lower Suk is Isaan not Thai FACT

     

    There are literaky 1,000's of places to eat street food in BKK that are far superior to what is served up in Lower Sukhumvit. The clue is,

     

    Do you see locals eating in Lower Suk Daytime NO

     

    But I bow down to Jamies superior knowledge, having spent a few nights in BKK, or should I say lower sukhumvit, on his first ever trip to Thailand, he knows a damn sight more than I will ever know having lived here for nearly 20 years.

     

    As such I wont bother posting on this board again, whats the point you all know better than I do.

     

     

    Goodbye-ee, goodbye-ee,

    Wipe the tear, baby dear, from your eye-ee,

    Tho' it's hard to part I know,

    I'll be tickled to death to go.

    Don't cry-ee, dont sigh-ee,

    there's a silver lining in the sky-ee,

    Bonsoir, old thing, cheer-i-o, chin, chin,

    Nap-poo, toodle-oo, Goodbye-ee.

    Some people brighten up the room when they enter it, and some people brighten up the room when they leave it.

     

    Have a guess


  11. :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

     

    Jamie,

     

    I know that it may be difficult to comprehend but street side dining in Lower Sukhymvit is "Not Authentic Thia Food" it is Isaan Food. The reason being that most BG's and LB's are from the Isaan area.

    The only people I have ever seen eating there are bar workers and punters alike. The reason why they are the bar workers "Favourite Places" is because they don't know anywhere else apart from Soi 4 / Lower Sukhumvit / their room.. They like going there because all their friends go there and if after bar closing time and have not been BF'd there is a chance they may be able to pick up a ST / LT as a freelancer.

     

    Lower Sukhumvit is the area where I have eaten the worse Thai food ever, low quality ingredients, total lack of hygene etc etc, dman I can walk out of my Moo Baan and cross the road to the parking lot of Lotus Express and pick up Thai food ten times better at half the price, but then again I probably know BKK better than any of the Lower Suk bar workers, ease of availability does not equal quality.

     

    KLW

     

    I don’t know if it just me or other believe the same , but your posts are coming across as aggressive and a little bit rude as of late, are you OK ???

     

    I love street food anywhere in the world never had a stomach upset and even cheap ingredients can be tasty. So guys pull up a plastic stool and enjoy what the locals eat, any restaurant in any country get my ok if you see the people of the restaurant eating their i.e Indian restaurant full of Indians eating is a winner for me. Indian restaurant with pale face white people no thanks


  12. hey that must be the strangest reply i have seen on here,,,,i'd say fair chance alcohol was a fair contibutor,,,not that i dont concur with some points but hey its not what you say its how you say it lol

     

     

    NO Alcohol just taken a sleeping pill and wanted to finish typing before i fell asl......................................................................


  13. Hi all. I would like to know what you guys think on this one-ESPECIALLY from the ones who are moderators and actually live in Bangkok.Among inner circles,local everyday life,etc.What is the truth on HIV among the ladyboys?Are the bar ladies any safer?As opposed to freelancers.

    I'm just a guy who really enjoys ladyboys,honestly more than GGs, and thinks Nana Plaza,the nightlife there is unreal for a LB lover on holiday BUT this is worrying me.What do you guys HONESTLY make of the situation?Thanks for any information and thoughts.

     

    I’ve no idea if the mods will take this reply down, I love this site and have come to enjoy reading post and seeing pics etc and ive even made a Australian friend , and I believe people would be more horrified if they found out I have had a few drink with lbloveroz than shagging Ladyboys ;-) . But this has to be the worse tread on this site, 99.9 % of members of this site cover up again only silly people don’t practice safe, so please leave us alone and keep this site its usual fun place, if you don’t want to take the risk have a wank ive recommend shemalefly.com and if your broadband is better than mine you will be knocking them out all day.

     

    you and you alone are responsible for your health and the girls are hygiene obsessed so going BB and then catching is you fault, if like smokers who get cancer you smoke you deal with it,, now thats over with welcome mate.

     

    and remember if you get on a plane to Bangkok it might crash, are you going to get on the plane ?? thought you would you dirty ladyboy fucker


  14. Great update BH. I remember when Ibis was being built. I stayed at the Swann Inn guest houses and was woken up each day. Its a great location, close to the action of course but also 7/11's, Pharmacies, internet shops, and food carts right out front.

     

    +1 on the update BH and that cutie adds a nice touch.
