  1. Yes! Not in the same sex thai cabinet thread though.
  2. Have you seen this Blade guy? I find him to be the only v-logger in Patts worth watching as its about ladymen (not some boring guide to deserted bars shot by a drunk). His stuff is pure gold. I could post any of his vids, this is the latest one I watched. Here he is in Sweethearts causing mayhem. Hilarious stuff. Damn, the KruS girls are the best ever! I couldn't find any suitable thread or topic for this post as I think the startpage is waaaay too busy. I get a headache even looking it with all these clubs and subforms. So please move it to a more accurate spot.
  3. I hope thats not the case. Cliques belongs to another board. Of course we have a few bar owners posting here promoting their bars, which is nice. I wish Jimbo could post here but its not worth the trouble, I guess. Plus on another board hes got a few fanboys so far up his ass buying virtual drinks, I doubt he'd get here, but I really wish he could post here. I like him and his bar. I agree. We used to have a great writer here. Ken G, aussie. Haven't heard from in a long time though.
  4. I never thought I'd feel like this, you put words on it very appropriately. Nicely put, Tel. , let's hope we can meet again in Los some day, young man. We have to believe!
  5. I agree,Tel. Its just too much trouble. A holiday in Los should be fun and easy, this simply isn't. Last few years I have already felt how tiresome long distance travelling has become. This is a nightmare even thinking about it. We're not alone thinking this. So many, especially families, I've talked to who usually travel to Thailand over the holidays already booked warmer european destinations.

    Coronavirus

    I have no idea what kind of paper The Sun is. How ice cool scientist saved Sweden from coronavirus WITHOUT lockdown – and now he’s a national hero https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/12710684/anders-tegnell-scientist-sweden-coronavirus-without-lockdown-national-hero/ As Sweden’s death count spiralled last spring at one of the highest global rates, this once faceless scientist was accused of creating a “pariah state”. Yet when I met Tegnell, 64, in the capital Stockholm he was being lauded as if he was the fifth member of Abba. T-shirts proclaiming — in the style of the Carlsberg adverts — “Tegnell, probably the best state epidemiologist in the world” are best-sellers. For it appears his decision not to lock down may have paid off. On Tuesday, while Britain and other European countries were seeing uplifts in cases, he announced that Sweden had its lowest number of new cases since March. In the dark days of April, Covid deaths in a single day peaked at 115. Now, some days, that figure is zero. And while Britain’s economy shrank by 20 per cent in the first three months of lockdown, Sweden’s reduced by only nine. Gatherings of more than 50 were banned but Swedish schools for under-16s, restaurants, bars, gyms and hairdressers all stayed open. Tegnell said shutting borders was “ridiculous” and that there is “very little evidence” masks are effective. So what is life like in Lockdown-free Land? On the airport shuttle I rummage for a face covering but the unmasked guard says I needn’t bother. A poll found just six per cent of Swedes wear them. Then, on one rush-hour Metro platform I see just one passenger in a mask. Molly Robinson, 26, originally from Saltburn-by-the-Sea, North Yorks, says: “Wearing a mask is your choice.” Later, at a restaurant, I am shown to a socially distanced table by an unmasked, unvisored waitress. There is no direction arrow, no sanitiser station. In pubs, joy of joys, you can sit at the bar and order a beer, as long as you remain socially distanced. The restaurant manager at Nya Car- negiebryggeriet brew- ery pub, David Manly, 38, says: “We feel like we’re living in a different world to other countries. We’re incredibly grateful.” At the Headzone salon, hairdresser Fay Botsi, 23, says: “We don’t want to wear masks or visors. We keep our distance and use disinfectant.” Sporting one of the Tegnell T-shirts, student Isabell Håkansson, 26, says: “I’m happy everything is open and we’re not locked down.” Junior doctor Sebastian Rushworth, 37, tells me he hasn’t seen a Covid patient on his emergency ward in two months. And the country is well prepared. At the start of the pandemic it had 526 available intensive care beds, and within weeks that number had doubled. Dr Rushworth, who works at a hospital in the capital’s northern suburbs, believes the reason for Sweden’s resilience is it has built up herd immunity. “There’s no other reasonable explanation,” he adds. Sweden’s government has largely allowed non-elected bureaucrat Tegnell to lead its pandemic response. But for all the success, there have been concerns, notably its care home crisis. Until mid-May, half of Sweden’s deaths were in care homes, a situation Tegnell says has now been rectified. Tegnell’s most vocal critics are the right-wing Sweden Democrats party, who described the care home deaths as a “massacre”. For many of his countrymen, Tegnell is a cult hero. So what’s it like, I ask him, being as famous internationally as Abba? “I try not to think about it too much,” he says modestly. “I realise it’s going to pass very quickly.” Sweden’s short summer is over and city dwellers are returning from their holiday cabins to their jobs and schools. There may be more Covid spikes. Just don’t expect a lockdown U-turn from iceman Tegnell.

    Coronavirus

    Went to one of the two IKEAs in my city today. Huge place. Packed. Not a face mask in sight on employees or shoppers. At the entrance there was an employee informing us that only 800 people were allowed in at the same time, I'd say it was a lot more than that, speakers inside pledged us to keep 2 meters distance to others, use common sense and be considerate while shopping. I hate shopping with a passion but I went with a buddy and were in and out in less than 1 hour. We had checked the website and knew what we wanted. No pombem.
  8. Not sure, as she hasn't been promoted very much around here I'll give it a stab, Teya?
  9. Same here, and this new deal wouldn't be too bad for me if it wasn't for the stupid quarantine. I have decided I will not play along with this BS. Its not so much about the money as the nerve to impose this arbitrary charade we know is useless regarding transmission of Covid-19. The more I think about it, they can shove it where the sun don't shine. If they want our money they should wise the fuck up and welcome us with that famous smile, fake or not.

    Sweden spared European surge as coronavirus infections stay low While many European countries are seeing new cases surge to levels not seen since the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic, Sweden – whose light-touch approach has made it an international outlier – has one of the continent’s lowest infection rates. The government said on Tuesday it was lifting its ban on visits to care homes for the first time in months from October. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/sep/15/sweden-records-its-fewest-daily-covid-19-cases-since-march Can't help feeling grateful and proud of my home country.
  14. Excellent news. Hopefully the quarantine will be axed and affordable air fares available. Thailand will start issuing special visas to foreign tourists starting October, easing a more than five-month-old ban on visitors to revive the nation’s ailing tourism-reliant economy. Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-Ocha’s cabinet approved a proposal to issue visas to tourists planning to stay between 90 and 280 days in Thailand, according to government spokeswoman Traisuree Taisaranakul. The tourists will undergo a mandatory 14-day state quarantine on arrival at partner hotels or hospitals and follow health and safety regulations, she said. https://www.yahoo.com/finance/news/thailand-moves-step-closer-welcoming-105436762.html

    RIP Ice

    I agree. May she rest in peace. Petesie already gave his medical expert opinion COD though, she died from smoking.
  16. She's a sweetheart really. Had a few sessions with her earlier this year. Maybe not GFE material, but she's alright.
  17. Ok, thanks. I thought you knew of her. She's special.
  18. I'll let BB answer this one. He did a shoot with her last January.
  19. Maybe this could be something for you expats in Pattaya. Its not April 1, is it? With travel limited, plane cafes take off in Thailand https://www.yahoo.com/news/travel-limited-plane-cafes-off-050929980.html With millions around the world stuck at home due to the pandemic, "plane cafes" in Thailand are offering customers the chance to pretend they are in the sky -- and the idea seems to have taken off. On board a retired commercial airplane in the coastal city of Pattaya, coffee drinkers make themselves comfy on first-class-style seats and pose for photos by the overhead lockers. Boarding passes in hand, some "passengers" even opt for a tour of the cockpit. "With this cafe I can sit in first class and also mess around in the cockpit pretending to be the captain of the plane," 26-year-old Thipsuda Faksaithong told AFP. "It's a lot of fun." Chalisa Chuensranoi, 25, said her visit was as good as any trip she had taken before the pandemic, which shuttered Thailand's borders in March. "Sitting right here in the first-class section... really gives me the feeling of actually being on a plane, cruising through the air," she said. In another cafe at the headquarters of national carrier Thai Airways in Bangkok, hungry diners appear even to have missed plane food as they gobble up spaghetti carbonara and Thai-style beef served on plastic trays by cabin crew. But for Intrawut Simapichet, 38, who came to the cafe with his wife and baby, the experience is about more than a meal. "Normally I'm a person who travels very often, and when we are forced to stay at home... it's kind of depressing," he said as fellow passengers posed with luggage by a fake airplane door. "(The cafe) relieves what's missing."
  20. I'm in Sweden and friday a spokes person for the biggest insurance company for travel agencies in Scandinavia, announced his company are cancelling the insurances. Force majeure kind of. His prediction is, and hes all for getting going asap, 2022 for tourism as we know it. We can forget about 2021, according to him. Not very uplifting. Personally I'm more optimistic. Never travel charter, just buy a seat and book lodging separately. I was hoping for this upcoming winter, but its not very realistic now. Second part of 2021, maybe?
  21. Same here. All blank though.
