  1. Hello

     

    I am in On Nut Sukhumvit 85 for 3 days

    I am with my wife and would like to go to a few bars that are nearby

     

    I want to stay fairly local so would appreciate any advice

     

    Thanks

     

    Couple of decent bars in On Nut try 'Cheap Charlies' its on Soi 50, there's another bar just next to it with a pool table and a few restaurants in the same area. There's also a beer garden near the BTS and another food court/beer garden down Soi 81. On Nut is a pretty decent area to live it's got pretty much everything you need, shopping mall with Cinema, good gym, couple of big super markets, food courts, restaurants, couple of bars, massage shops and a BTS station.

  2. Easiest way is to get a taxi from Pattaya, it's always cheaper to get taxi from Pattaya to Bangkok than vice versa as the taxi's bringing guys from the airport are based in Bangkok and they want a return fair sometimes the poor fucker sleep a night in their taxi waiting for one so should be able to get it for 1000bhat. Get dropped off, get sucked off then get a taxi meter to the airport for roughly 380 bhat plus highway fee, if it's after 9pm don't really need to use the highway often drivers will charge you saying "include highway" then not take the fucker anyway and it doesn't add much time to the journey at night.

     

    Cheaper method is get the bus to Ekamai roughly 80 bhat for motorbike taxi to bus station, 120 bhat for the bus, BTS to Nana 25 bhat then get the BTS to Phayathai 25 bhat and catch airport rail link 45 bhat so 295 bhat all in but it's gonna take a lot longer. When I was living there I used to take this option as I had plenty of time, on vacation time is more of a constraint plus I'm carrying more baggage so now I'd probably go with the taxi option.

  3. Chatuchak market is on every weekend it's massive so should be able to find what you want there, not sure what it's like for value for money as it's a tourist trap but guess its ok if you know how to haggle. For electrical items though I'd just head to MBK they've got all sorts of shite in this place though they've clamped down on fake goods in here so not as much as there once was.

  4. I didn't do it by bike but I've done a couple of road trips round Essan with my ex in the car, there's loads of stuff to see two places I really remember were Tat Ton National park in Chaiyaphum and Than Tip waterfall in Nong Khai. Essans a beautiful place surprised not many regular tourists make it up there, it's also really cheap and the locals are friendly. Think Siam Sam's right if I was going to do it by bike I'd hire one and do it at my own pace there's a lot to see and every major town, even most large villages have their resident farang click who you can tap for information over a couple of beers.

  5. I've not booked anything yet but my current plans are to arrive in Bangkok April 14th and get a hotel near to Nana which should be a fun Songkran if there are water fights between different bars.

     

      Now as this is the Thai new Year should I expect that there will be fewer girls around?  

     

    Songkran is fun round Nana I like watching the madness from the bars more than getting involved, Songkran in Bangkok is much more civilised than it is in Pattaya. There will be fewer girls though, some of them go home to celebrate it with family and of the ones that remain some will be out drinking and throwing water around during the day and out of action by night time, there will still be plenty of girls around though so don't worry.

  6. I'm not expecting much as I've found very little good beer in Pattaya but does anyone know of bars near Nana or Cowboy where they sell good conditioned cask ale?

     

    If you don't mind straying a bit away from the Nana/Cowboy area there's Hobs bar at rain hill shopping mall which has a decent selection, and The Beer House in Ekamai which also does decent food.

  7. Yes all hairdressers are hookers simply get your cock out during the haircut and she'll know what to do, also the BJ bars are just a front for hair salons, give the girl a tip and she will give you a great haircut. Whatever you do if your looking for sexual services in Bangkok do not go to BJ bars, massage shops, gogo's, beer bars, escort agencies, nightclubs or bars where freelancers hang out, simply go to T21 all women there are whores disguising their antics by shopping or even better approach women standing around staring at their phones not making eye contact with anyone or even just go to a hair salon.

  8. Hi,

     

    The disco I usually ventured to closed a while back.  I know there is Insanity at the end of Soi 11 which has a few FL's, are there any other options?

     

    My preference is usually to pick up a FL from a disco.

     

    Thanks

     

    Think I know which disco you meant Climax by any chance? I haven't found a replacement yet, I liked the live music and the fact it was an older crowd and every chick in there was an FL. Insanity and Mixx have plenty of FL's but the musics not as good.

  9. Thanks sounds good.

    Now need to figure out how to get a large suitcase from Walking Street hotel to bus station and how much that would cost?

     

    Any idea on bus time schedules?

     

    Thanks

     

    You can get a Bhat bus (bell bus) but you'll have to change bus a couple of times or you could find an empty Bhat bus or taxi meter and get them to take you I'm not sure of the price. I only come to Pattaya for a day or 2 with hand luggage so I've always got a taxi motorbike in the past which cost 60 - 80bhat.

  10. You can get a bus from Pattaya to Ekamai think it's about 120bhat the bus station is right next to Ekamai BTS station so can hop straight on the BTS from there. Can get the BTS to Phaya Thai then get airport rail link to the airport depending on where your hotel is, the time of day and how many bags you've got it may be easier to just get a taxi for 350bhat. I mainly use the rail link getting from the airport into town if I arrive during peak traffic hours, it's a bit of a pain in the ass getting on the BTS with heavy bags.
