it was a pleasure to get off the plane and head down to patpong to check out the hot babes instead of the fking uglies nowadays..short time was 500 and all night was a 1000b ..and that meant banging them all night ..have brekkers and then bang them some more till lunchtime ..then it was off to do some shopping or by the pool .bar fines were 100-200 so it was a low overhead ..on top of the 1000 fee .they popped into the bar to pay the bar fine then it was repeat of the previous nite ..some times you would take the gal off for a week to phuket or samui and you had all day action when you wanted it for a reasonable fee ..one such gal was Noy who i found in the kings castle bar and she was always hot and horny ..we partied for the whole 2 weeks i was there and we would meet up on further trips ..she very rarely went home except to change clothes ..we played pool at the ball in hand bar in soi 4 and went to the cinema on numerous occasions ..and traveled around the realm .. a great companion for my trips till she vanished ..one of my best tugs ..this was in the day before smart phones and it all became short time format and too expensive ..and you didnt really get to know the gals very well. that was in the days of a real GFE experience

Those days will never return, now most only want short time, one pop and they will be getting dressed, Bangkok especially is a major ripoff, some bars want 1000 baht barfine, then the girl will ask for 3000 baht.
Time to seek out new pastures.  :thumbsdown:

First time that I went to Pattaya was in 86 on a day trip from Bangkok. Unfortunately I got rather pissed and missed the last bus back to Bangkok. I had little money left as I had left my travellers cheques along with my passport in the Bangkok hotel safe. A lovely bar girl took me to her humble room, gave me a freebie and paid my bus fare back to Bangkok the next morning.

It was a totally different place back then.

Here we go again Captain fucking bore dissing Thailand down as he's too old to enjoy the fruits of the country anymore without having to shell out a small fortune whilst popping blue tabs to just about raise a grin!
Passed through Thailand twice this year so far and banged the arse of quite a number of absolute hotties around Patts and Bkk and the most expensive was 1500 Baht in Bkk. In Patts, generally 1000 Baht and 300 for the room.
Maybe some of us like the 'short time' option. It certainly means I can wake up the following morning without having to piss about waiting for the girl to get up so I can go out and enjoy my day activities. Short time for me is the only choice I make and would want to.
As said previously, if I do decide I'd like some action during the day, it's a case of log into WeChat, then text, call and video call to your hearts content - Then choose who you'd like to bang the most!
Bore off with the 'it ain't what it used to be' shite.

A lot of the hot gogo dancers don't want to leave their bar, as they earn good money from drinks and tips, also factor in the agency girls, many of the top gogo's use them, they earn around 1500 a night salary, before drinks and tips, and their BF is usually high. You can still BF the hot dancers in Patts, at reasonable price but your face has to fit, top tier girls don't need to go with any punter, as she usually has a few sponsors and earning good baht in the bar, it's down to if she likes a guy, or if they don't like him they may charge 3k ST. Many of the girls are now on the dating sites, and prefer to arrange a ST then go home, it's not what LOS used to be, but it is what it is.

Oh okay, sorry SIR. As attraction is a subjective thing, what I define as hot, you may simply not think the same.

I found several very hot girls on Soi 6 in Patts with many more working along side them and in other areas of the city.

Without being age discriminatory, I suspect you're in the same age bracket as Captain Bore and struggling to accept that things are just as good for us younger guys as they were for you 'back in the day.'

Going back to the topic of attraction being subjective. I for one find todays girls, their curves and definite swag attitude far sexier than the image, shape and submissiveness personalities I see and read about from girls from a decade or two ago. Like I say, its subjective and I certainly wasn't speaking out of my asshole and I don't fuck whatever may come my way SIR.

You are spot on, my first visit was around 15 years ago when you got around 70 baht to £, now it is nearer 43.

Barfines at the Golden Beer Bar were 350 baht and a local beer was 70 baht.

The best days of Thailand are long gone.

The internet has not helped, many hookers get their business from dating sites, no need to work the bars.

Thailand's still not expensive, unless you are comparing it to how it was before. Which is not the same. Of course it's shit compared to just five or six years ago.

You can still get some great hotels for remarkably cheap prices in Bangkok. The quality of what you get in BKK compared to a lot of places, including Manila, is far better. Beers are more expensive than before its true. Overall, though...I'm still not sure how anyone can say it is expensive. Take a trip to Isan. Nice and cheap.

The main kicker in recent years has been the fall of the pound against the baht.

Before Brexit I was getting around 47 baht to the pound, now around 43 —— only about a 10% drop, hardly relevant.  :unknown:

Okay guys - I'm going to give you a little piece of information which connects the modern world with the world you used to know.

I am a regular traveller to ASEAN and the resorts are a place that I pass through now and again along with the big city traps.

If you're looking for the girls that you used to know and meet, try thinking of a new way to find them.

This is one example of how I met regular local girls, who on occasion accepted money, but often just were so curious about meeting a western guy that they would simply meet and then usually end up back at my hotel room where they had their western guy that girls away from the resorts, bars, parlours etc see on a daily basis.

Travel somewhere off the beaten path, my example is when I was in Davao last year. A reasonably large city, (Duterte's home city) and somewhat an advantage, but not compulsory was that it was a university city and I landed my hotel bang in the vicinity of the uni and let WeChat do the work.

I literally couldn't keep up with the messages, video calls and offers to meet local girls, untouched by the constant procession of tourists seeking to bang them, these were girls that were genuinely excited to see and have sex with a western guy, having blue eyes and blonde hair completely elevates this curiousness amongst the girls and it showed. My hotel room for 4 days in Davao almost became a revolving door and it became a little bit 'awks' walking through reception as the cute girl I'd flirted with on arrival became somewhat dumbstruck as to the calls to confirm that such a body is okay to come to my room!!

My advice on the back of this example and there are more from cities I have been to where I adopted the same mantra and results is to move away from Patts etc and use your head a little. Okay, it may mean a little work, like downloading and creating a profile on WeChat, which incidentally isn't used hardly at all in Europe as I have searched nearby where I live and the only 'locals' are Chinese students at the nearby city university.

You have to remember that in the famous sex tourist resorts and hubs that you're literally on a conveyor belt and unless you can give them something (not financial) but actually blow THEIR minds sexually, you're going to leave unfulfilled. I have actually enjoyed blowing a girls mind in the resorts and leaving them almost shell shocked about what they just experienced other than having to 'tug another guy off,' despite paying for THEIR pleasure. There is no denying that look of 'what the fuck did you just do to me' is a never ending pleasure.

I'm sure I remember getting about 54/55 baht the Christmas before Brexit (so, Xmas 2015) unless I've completely lost my marbles. That's more like 25%. Pretty sure I was getting that then.

As for beers...some dafties will pay 300baht for a beer but there's no need. Go to the right English pubs in central Bangkok and it's still 99 baht for Happy Hour pints and 110/120 for normal time. Like at the "Robin Hood" on Sukhumvit for example. Perhaps not cheap, but still not bad for full pints of the Singha/Tiger/Asahi whatever. Unless talking about importing beers like Guinness which are more expensive.

My thoughts exactly. There's a sign in the window at Papagayboy on Soi Diana - 15,500b a month salary to shake your little tushy on the bar. Chuck in the lady drinks, tips and a couple of sponsors means there's no incentive to spread 'em, unless it's for silly money.  :thumbsdown:

Whatever! I gave you guys a solution to maybe solving your woes about Thailand being not what it used to be. Whether you adapt to the times or not, that's your prerogative. The world has changed, things have moved on and advanced. The world you reminisce about is over and dated.

The world I and millions more experience is just as good and no doubt far better than what you used to know.

You guys can still find what you're desperately seeking, but you need to change your game.

For the record I am not being unfairly harsh without reason. I just disapprove of the negatives been thrown Thailand's way when it's far from the truth.

That is not strictly true. Walk round any top Bangkok mall and you will see plenty of stunning women but they are not usually available to likes of you and I and if they are they would charge a King's ransom.

Even though I am a lot nearer being an "old codger" than a "young man about town", I understand where Goodfellas000 is coming from. As we get older we obviously see more change happening, everywhere and remember things from the past, often with fondness. We can all think of things where it used to be a lot better than it is now. Hell, one time we even won the World Cup!!

But we ALL live in the present. As an experienced but UK only punter hoping to go punting abroad for the first time very soon,  rather than hearing how great Thailand used to be, I appreciate information on how it is now (girls, availability, prices etc) and any alternatives suitable for someone like me. I see on this thread, Gambia and Cuba has been suggested. And I have followed threads by Vivago but he is obviously a very experienced overseas  punter.

So guys, if not Bangkok/Pattaya then where please as a first overseas punting holiday  Any suggestions appreciated. (I'll probably do a couple of short breaks in Europe to get started so its further away that i'm now interested in).

I’ve got hundreds and keep meaning to throw them away. Naturally these days in many ‘modern’ cities  less girls are happy about having their photos taken. I do question the usefulness of this sentimentalising though — it can swamp a forum with pleasant but useless info for today’s punting — as can the pissing-contest posts (I see we have another ‘I know everything about Thailand’ twat who blows his trumpet without helping punters).

I started going to Thailand as a young man, but since travelled a lot more — as Vivago has. It’s all an experience, but I prefer the less touristy options these days. I also think that, as nobody punts 24/7, that’s it’s worth choosing countries for what you like about them, and just checking that there are enough hobby options not to rule them out. Otherwise you might as well save money by staying at home.  :hi:

We are kindred spirits. I don't know why I spent 2 weeks in Pattaya recently as I knew that I would get bored, which I did about a week into the trip. Actually I do know why I went there. I have had some memorable times in the place and wanted to pay one last visit there as a sort of last hurrah. I doubt whether I'll ever get back there.

But I usually organise my punting as a important but not vital part of my travels. I've been to Athens before but many years ago and I was keen to see the place again. So most of the time I was a normal tourist doing touristy things. I'm in Budapest now, a city that I love to bits. I've had one punt (which didn't go too well) and I'll probably squeeze in another before I leave but it's not essential.

My next destination is Warsaw where I intend to do a bit more mongering. But same again, it's a place that fascinates me because I'm a big military history buff so I'm already planning side trips to Auschwitz and possibly the tigers lair aside from the many things to see and do in Warsaw itself.

If you scroll back through this page, you will see of a way that you can meet girls via the use of your smartphone and Apps. By all means start off in Bangkok and see what the city is all about and of course the nightlife. However instead of following the herds of sex tourists taking the highway to Pattaya, where you'll just be yet another punter. Try flying somewhere off the tourist map as stated in my previous comment.

My example was Davao, but I have many more examples of cities where the old way as well as the new way still applies. Walking the city malls and being possibly the only western guy in the complex is always going to generate curiousness amongst the local girls and women. My mantra is to approach with an open mind and engage in some type of conversation, its easy done and a lot of fun!

Then try the newer way which is to download WeChat and search locals to your hearts content, within seconds of creating a profile, you will have messages off local girls and you can arrange to meet whoever takes your fancy.


It's worth noting that the girls who use these Apps in the tourist hotspots are usually p4p girls/women. Inthe areas away from those, you will find regular girls using it.

Hope that helps!

Very true. Thai girls (non-working) are just as stunning as anywhere else in the world and they are generally very elegantly/sexily dressed and they are always smiling!!

Philippines is a place I have travelled too and away from Manila you can soon find yourself in an area where you stand out as a lone western guy on many occasions. Which from my own experiences has often led to some memorable encounters and not just of the sexual type!!
