Ezy Bar is closed. If the visitor is in Bangkok, I would suggest Guess Bar - much more laid back than the lb go go bars in Nana Plaza and Patpong.

I think the most famous Thai lb is Nong Poy - Miss Tiffany and Miss International Queen 2007. She's been on TV, in movies, videos, magazines, and is very well known throughout Asia. She's also a successful model and is current featured in an ad campaign for G-Net mobile phone service in Thailand.

KenW, I think you are thinking of Li Jing - here's a Youtube video about her: I think there are long term relationships with lbs and certainly ts that we don't hear about because they have blended in with society and don't make a big deal about it.

Some general advice when using ATMs in any country, including home. Skimming (capturing the information in the magnetic card stripe) cards is becoming a more frequent scam. To minimize this watch out for the following when using an ATM, does the card slot seem to protrude out further than normal? It should be close to flush with the face of the ATM. Most modern ATMs feature a flashing green light around the card slot, if this is missing be suspicious, as a card skimmer may have been installed over top the card slot. Always obscure any views while you are entering your PIN. Don't use the ATM when any suspicious looking people are nearby.

ringspun - there is another option. If you will be using the same hotel when you return to BKK from VN - they generally have a secure luggage storage area you can use until your return. Typically there is no charge involved, especially if you are a repeat guest. My favorite hotel, Grand Business Inn, Sukhumvit Soi 11 has this service I've used on many occasion, without problems.

The gyms listed by PD will have weights and machines, but I don't think they would have a punching bag, and likely the same for the gym in the Landmark Hotel. Look for a Muay Thai centre for a punching bag, or you could always make friends with "Lights Out" Janet from Cascade - she's quite involved in Muay Thai.

Al Qaida already verified he's dead and blew up 80 people in Pakistan for "revenge". His wives and surviving son have confirmed it as well, so a photo is really unnecessary. One of the Republican senators has seen the photo and attested to how gory it is. It is a contrast how Obama has handled the announcement - not trumpeting it or showing off as some other previous presidents would have done. Hopefully some of the US citizens can grasp that, and not be fooled by the ridiculous Tea Party and Republican attacks. It would be a shame if he were a one term president and a nutcase like Palin won the next presidential ballot.

Body Surfer, you're welcome - best if you take an lb companion to the contest who can translate for you, if you don't understand Thai. It is pricey though, main floor seats cost 2500 Baht this year. Here's the story from The Nation about the contest - note the occupations some of the contestants have - a change from previous years!

The cheap charlies are operating under the mistaken belief the 2 week millionaires are driving up the costs of what the girls are asking. Having done some research on another forum, the costs have not changed significantly over the past 7 years. The ladies know that there will always be some customers who are willing to pay more - for example the Japanese, and some who will not pay that much, like the resident ex-pats. Depending on their economic situation at the moment, they could accept a "cheap charlie" offer. By the way, the Japanese have been coming for decades and don't seem to have impacted the cost of the ladies either! So, it should be live and let live - don't get obsessed by what the various groups pay, as long as you enjoy yourself during your LOS adventure - ultimately that is what matters. Jimslim, are you sure that's not an effect of those Irish genes? :lol:

Ok, the rest of the videos from the contest: That's it for this year! Around November, Miss Tiffany Universe 2011 will be in Miss International Queen 2011, when ts from various countries will compete for the crown.

Now that I've figured out how to get the videos to show properly (thanks PD!), I am putting up the Miss Unlimited Sexy Star videos up again for those who did not click on the links:

Ok, more videos from the finals night: This person has excellent videos, and will be posting up the rest shortly.

Ok Lung, something more to titillate your senses, video from the Miss Ultimate Sexy Star competition, May 4 held at Central Festival Pattaya Mall.

This is the Thai TV 7 website: Thai TV 7. There is a button for TV Online - so you might be able to watch the contest in that section. Just remember it starts 10:30 pm Thai time Friday May 6 and ends at 12:30 am. If you don't know Thai it may be difficult to follow.

For those in Pattaya on May 4, the Miss Unlimited Sexy Star segment of Miss Tiffany Universe is on. It will be held at Central Festival Pattaya Mall. Here are a couple of videos and photos to give you an idea of what it will be like: Excellent opportunity to see and/or photography the ladies in sexy swim wear!

Haven't you wondered why some lbs have bad breast jobs? Nipples pointing different directios, One breast higher than another, or too close to each other? All the result of bad placement, probably because she went to a cheap or inexperienced doctor. Of course the other contributing factor is not good post surgical care. The breasts must be massaged daily for a number of months to "settle" in properly - something Gizmo knows quite well! :D

Hound of Baskervilles, I think you must be talking about acetazolamide (Diamox - brand name). Iodine is used for protecting the thyroid in case of radiation exposure, as what happened in Japan. JD, have a great trip, some of my friends used to do the trek to Everest base camp before the problems and loved it.

I don't think the doctors suggest big implant sizes. My girlfriend was recommended to get 320 cc implants, but just as she was going under from the anesthesia, she told the doctor to upgrade to 340 cc implants. They turned out great, but as JD wrote too big for a regular Thai lady. My ex-gf on the other hand decided on smaller implants, probably around 260-280 cc and she is 100% passable. As far as I know I think silicone and saline implants are available in LOS. Some of the ones mentioned in the internet article such as soya emulsion implants, and saline expandable implants are not available in LOS. The most common insertion method LOS drs use is via the axillary route (under the armpit), which hides the scar quite well, but makes it harder to accurately place the implant so everything is aligned well. The second most common would be inframammary, so just under the breast fold.

Here's an excellent webpage that explains the procedures and different types of implants. Second Type Woman breast implant info

ok, the rest of the videos are up: http://youtu.be/iDv79BA47g8?hd=1

Thanks for sharing Ling! Were you there with a gf, or alone? Here is video of the 58 contestants. When the video of the final 30 is posted on Youtube, I will post it here as well.

Giz, good photo there - still looks fairly recent after the operation. Were you the one who got to do the daily massage to help them settle in? :D So was it the Suay Ngam Clinic or the Pratunam Polyclinic she went to? For DownLoLarry, here are the clinic contact details: Pratunam Polyclinic 425/4 Ratchaprarop Road Makkasan Rajthevee Bangkok 10400 Thailand Makkasan, Bangkok 10400 Thailand tel: +66 662-2552280 fax: +66 662-2547953 Suay Ngam Clinic, 63/153 Rattanatibas RD, Muang, Nontaburee in Bankok. Phone number is... 02 5919357 - 02 5919358 or 0866030354 or 0897711851 It doesn't look like these places have web pages.

Yes, he does, but I already posted a reply to your other thread. He doesn't do as good a job as the other two places I mentioned.

Probably the lowest price/reasonable quality is Pratunam Polyclinic in Bangkok, which is operated by Dr. Thep. Many Thai lbs go there because of his lower prices and generally good work. The only caveat is that he does not use general anesthesia only local to perform the operation, so post surgery the patient must have a high pain threshold. He also does not charge as much differential fees for foreigners as most This hospitals/clinics do. The other place lbs say is good is called Suay Ngam clinic in Nonthaburi, a suburb of Bangkok. They do use general anesthesia here. I think the drawback to this place is they don't speak much English.

Don't base your decision on just one experience with a postop. There are plenty of "bad" or average doctors out there, but only a few excellent ones. I've met postop lbs who have excellent muscle control and can actually massage the sperm out of your penis, plus some lbs who can also self lubricate and orgasm. Of course they are not common, but if an lb says her doctor is Dr. Suporn - odds are that she will have an excellent vagina. Of course the muscle control only comes from regular exercise, and I've only met 2 who could do that.
