Hi guys,

Thinking about going to Korat, KK and UD for a 10-day trip.

Any updates on the action there?

Thanks!

I haven't mongered in UTH since the original Mister Tong's shut down. Looking forward to hearing the news as well.

Seems to be working again.

Seems to be a lot of problems with B-A right now. Logging out and logging back in doesn't seem to fix them.

- Getting a javascript alert with an error message when I try to like a post.

- A thread in View New Content won't disappear even though I've read the OP and all 3 replies several times.

- A post of mine from yesterday doesn't show up in recent content and is not found in a search for one of its keywords ("Twister") from...

I'm thinking July 2021 at the earliest. Another wave is going to hit the West when winter settles in.

Will those who are not in the US still be able to download it from the PlayStore or AppleStore?

With Apple... you should be able to unless Apple bans it from every country's App Store. All you need do is create a new iTunes account for another country (New Zealand or whatever), sign out of your device's US app store, sign in with the alternate account, download what you want, then switch back to your primary account. The app still functions even though it was downloaded to the device with the non-current iTunes account. Not sure if updates still work, but it's trivial to repeat the process above if not.

These days, I am looking for beer at midday and late afternoon/early evening lady action. Last place I mongered other than BKK was Singapore. Nothing happening until around 10pm. Clubs and 3am non-stop partying bars are useless as a chocolate fireguard to me nowadays. 

This. So much this. If the ladies would just understand the needs of the well-established older gentleman who has the means (and isn't going to pound them raw...) and get on earlier in the day. Of course there's always lack of discrete daytime venues and women not wanting to be seen in a particular light...

"Soapy Bars" means soapie massage? Then that's a yes.

But can't say I have a greater interest in anything but the gogos. Really prefer to see the girls in motion.

"Other" I chose because I have enough Thai to navigate the Thai-language sideline girls websites and make arrangements.

What are the odds now for a December trip?  I think less than 50% now.  Maybe reliable vaccines will help, but they are second quarter 2021.  Until the Thai people are willing to live with the virus, like the farang nations, nothing will change.  

Much less than 50% unless the virus mutates into a dominant strain that is far less lethal and provides an immunity against the more lethal strains. This government is already under enough stress from both the protests and the damaged economy, so they just can't risk opening up too early and having a wave of illness and fatalities. I wouldn't count on a vaccine at all to help pry open the borders until it's proven effective worldwide in the real world and not just in the testing process.
