I've scanned the boards for the last couple of weeks, but somethings seem to fall between the cracks.
As an intro I'm mid-40s, got divorced about 5 years ago, Brit but living in the US 20+ years, and lived with a Vietnamese girl for a couple of years after that; hence interest in women SEA (though I grew up in SGP). Plus recent experience when dating a woman here and her ex- stalked her to our dinner date, ambushed me in the toilet (lost a couple my teeth), makes me want to visit some place with no hassles but good company.
So, here are my questions:
1. I keep reading the "usual shower thing" but can anyone give me a better description of this ritual? Are there showers in the morning too?
2. A lot of you seem to hook up with a BG a few days, but a part from 'boom-boom' what do you do to keep entertained?
3. A lot of you (naturally) seem to use the Mai Thai as 'homebar', and venture out elsewhere to find BGs. No disrespect to MTB, but are there other good homebars or problems with the MTB BGs?
3. What's the percentage of BGs willing to do a threesome (with another BG)?
4. What's the availability of non-Thai women in Patong? Heard mention of picking up a Japanese tourists, but what about Euros?
5. For a two week stay, after travel and hotel, for spending money to have a good (555) time? I was thinking USD1400-2000 would be enough for a fine time.
And if I've arsed anything stupid let me know...
I'm looking a visit in May and staying at the ExPat--seems close to the action, comfortable, and I'm a cheap barstard. Would C&N be better?
Thanks
