best place for a small birthday party

[Wesley]

My birthday will come while I am there in LOS. Where in Pattaya is the best place to open a bottle of wine and a few beers for some guys who would like to spend sometime with me while looking for a boy that night. Or would it just be best to fine a guy and go to Xzyte and party my ass off there with a few freinds who like a late night bar qned open a good bottle of Burbon and have some bourbon and coke with ice and watch the show and the boys. Any suggestions. Does two guys do parties like this....? 56 is not hte worst but its nto the best either, may be best to let it slide by with out a thought of it or buy a Cialis and see how many boys I can do in one night. LOL

with me while looking for a boy that night.

Wes

If I am in town, wherever you book it, I'll bring a present for you in the same manner as "Boys in the Band" (is not a musical)

I am not quite sure what your saying. I assume "there in LOS"=Pattaya and if your having a birthday party what the date, time and place?

Wesley,

You may want to consider "Ouds Cafe."

When Oud was running the former "Memories Bar" small parties like this were common and always a great time for all.

We also held several SGF Get Togethers at Memories so most of our members know Oud, Jack and Ralph very well, which would probably boost the attendance.

Send me a PM if you're interested for Oud's e:mail address.

I am aware that advice, even advice asked for, is the cheapest thing on the block. If I was going to plan a small party, I would ask Monty to host it. I am a fan of the old rascal. If you do not know him, just wander around Jomtien and ask for his place. He is Aussi and very congenial and will host a party of most any size. While on a visit one time I was invited to one of his pool parties at his place in Sunee. One of the best parties I have attended in any country.

[Wesley]

I'll look into that does Monty post on the forum if I can get the booking done Monday I'll try to book 14th though the 29th of October and I'll be 56 the 23rd.
I was born midnight between the 22nd so Mom says the 22nd registered as the 23rd, I partied on the 22nd until I got my license to drive and found out I turn 56 on the 23rd not the 22nd when I went to the court house to get a copy of my birth certificate. So I am born in between the signs of Scorpio and Libra. no wonder I and a bit confused occasionally. I am not sure if I should be abrasive Scorpio or the laid back Libra.

One thing many of us have in common with Thai boys is the obsession over birthdays.

The party or lack of a party seems to reflect whether or not we have any friends, if anyone
cares or remembers and our own self esteem issues.
Be very careful when your new Thai friend announces it is his birthday as some are known to have many birthdays every month and every time they met a new farang.
What are the odds that you will meet three new boys in a week and all three will be having a birthday that week? Pretty slim and looking at the ID card has a way of making the birthday "just a joke" and shows you are not another stupid sucker waiting to be plucked and will need more clever handling to extract the lucre..

Last nite at Corner Bar, a candle lit birthday cake was brought out for one of the regulars and earlier in the evening a group of friends picked up his dinner tab and at least one friend gave him a present.
Several others of us , looked at each other and grimaced.
Starting a tradition of taking guys out for dinner and buying presents sets off a bad tradition and breeds problems.
Example: You spent 1000B. on your present and on your birthday your present obvioulsy
costs under 100B. Resentment sets in and who needs all these bullshit..
We went to an expensive restaurant on your birthday and this shithole dive on mine. Resentment sets in and who needs it.

I hope my set of friends, formerly called the barmy army (which never and doesn't exist)by
some get the message and get off this new birthday kick. I can guarantee someone will
end up in tears and pissed off and it is far better not to make a big deal except on special
occassions. Wes, 56 is not a special occassion but big round numbers might qualify.
Been there done that and know the end results are inevitable at some point.... :cat:

If it's my birthday I decide on the restaurant, I invite the guests and I pick up the tab. And there is never a birthday cake

Since it's a small party you want, I wonder if that place in Manilla that used to be staffed by dwarfs is still open?

[TrongpaiExpat]

OK then it's all settled, Monty's it is. I still a bit confused on the date is it the 22 or 23rd? Since Wes is posting all his thought about this here I am sure we all can assume we are invited.

Wes Wes he's our man, three cheers for Wesley and a happy birthday, fake or not, who cares. Open bar I assume? What a man!

It was called the Hobbit House. Very high tables and waiters were all dwarfs

Indeed. Bit of a weird feeling seeing only eyes and the top of the head at table level. Bit like "Kilroy was 'ere" graffiti. OTOH, you never felt they were talking down to you when taking your order.

"I invite the guests and I pick up the tab."

yes but that's because no-one else ever turns up !

I am part of a small group that meets for dinner when there is a birthday, where the birthday boy[ strange term for retirees] does not pay. We usually select a better restaurant than we normally would attend, and it ends up even at the end of a year
One of our number was interstate for a month and we went to dinner when he returned There is a five month gap between
two of the birthdays, so we have

There are no presents, for birthdays or xmas. Whenever we go for dinner other than a birthday, we divide the bill equally. If you cant afford that ,your right it can breed problems

yes but that's because no-one else ever turns up !Apart from you, Doris, ever the consummate freeloader

Forget the wine, there is no good wine in Pattaya. Don't waste good Bourbon with coke! Take the Cialis and fuck your brains out!

[Wesley]

I would think a considering my popularity on the forum it will be a small occasion. I will talk to Monty and see how it goes when I get there. I gave up on the 22nd by the way. My immediate family still does the 22nd everyone else the 23rd. 56 is not so bad. I can still do most everything I could do when I was young just slower. I thought taking typing was a sissy thing to do. So, now I need a full time secretary to do my typing. Other than that I can say I am better at that than when I was young. Windows forced me to learn although not so well as many of you especially smiles has pointed out and I don't blame him at all. he forces me to use spell check, only my new windows will not allow the spell check feature to be used no matter how often I allow pop ups.

In other words what you used to do all night now takes all night to do

Welcome to mature age

Wes, if your memory is still good, you will remember how members of this forum
grew tired of your posting about the mundane events of your life and your style
of jumping from topic to topic without any connections. One would almost assume
you were under the influence.
I find your posting harmless enough and never mean spirited but they are starting to
get to be "too much information" on very uninteresting subjects.
This is just a friendly jab and maybe you will not return to play the "poor old soul without
friends" role or the "just don't get it guy" role or the " absentminded professor" role.

My sole purpose is to prevent the scalding comments, which are inevitable, if you continue
down this road as board tolerance is not what it used to be and you are using it up quickly,
in my humble opinion anyway. Ignore is just one or two more postings away, if you care.. :cat:

board tolerance is not what it used to be

Oh shit! I must be in an alternate universe.

board tolerance is not what it used to be Oh shit! I must be in an alternate universe.I read that and refrained from responding immediately. Has The Cat lost the plot even more completely recently, or is there a simpler explanation?

If it's my birthday I decide on the restaurant, I invite the guests and I pick up the tab.

Easy for you to do, since you have no friends.

I believe Wes falls into playing roles on this forum and my tolerance level is such
that it just becomes so pitiful. Wes turns Euro Boys into a boy bar that features
farang boys when the Euro is just the name of the currency. We all make mistakes
but some of us like to play the fool, the naive, the innocent lamb and perhaps if
one points this out, we can be spared from Wes making an ass of himself.
We are far beyond the point of homintern making an ass of himself but at least he
exhibits intelligence and wit and I can't dislike anyone who tears aunty another asshole
on a regular basis..

Note to Chao Na: if you pay for your own birthday party, you would be amazed at
how many acquaintances and bar flies show up. I recall the mob scene when Rainwalker
hosted his annual December open bar and the farang who tried to polish off a bottle of
single malt scotch in the last few minutes before the free drinks ended.
I was first or second on line for the food and it was very tasty. A year or two before, I
polished off 4 or 5 margaritas at the old Memories (when owned by Jack, Ralph & Oud.)
I think last year will be the last year for the Rainwalker Gay Pride Meet and Greet open bar.

well if you are a friend its the 23rd, if you are my mom it's the 22nd, not sure where you sand on that event.

But, I did say a small party. I assumed small, since I assume few enough care enough about me to show up, but I guess you can drink my beer and eat the food and still hate me.

I'll be in the air the next 2 days and then I am in a hotel for a week not sure when I will get internet access. But, as soon as I am on line, Ill confirm my dates and time with two guys then plan a small party when I get to twoguys. I'll be in Manilla for a month then to Thailand for two weeks, then back to Manila for 6 months. My time in Thiland is 14-29th of October if I can work out the flight times with a local carrier.

I am coming in from the Philippines, I leave the USA in about 2 hours headed for Manila. Once there I want to work with Cebu air, its only about 328 USD to fly in to Thailand. But I need to be there since they continually decline my card for no goo reason. The Card Company okay's it they decline it. I am not sure why but, they are small and cheap. Cathay Pacific is 6 hundred for a 3 hour trip.I am not sure if there are some other lines why fly in daily that are cheaper and easier to work with. Or maybe a bit higher but easier to work with. leaving Manila to Bkk, taxi to Pattaya.

Thank you ,mon colonel from a mere major

We always consider the capacity of the lowest income member in selecting our restaurant

Not being patronizing, just a few friends sharing some times together

We always consider the capacity of the lowest income member in selecting our restaurantAgain, a most worthy consideration. I'm always amazed at how thoughtless some people can be about others' circumstances. George I see has been singing his own praises (again) in a post earlier today about sitting down wind of his friends when smoking out of consideration for others (it's the Bodhisattva in him coming out, an example poor old PeterUK could learn from). That means George has to raise his voice against the wind when holding a conversation, which for those furthest away is pretty fortunate as that man could bore for Britain (and probably has). Lunchtime O'Booze is forever suggesting the most expensive restaurant in town when it's my turn to buy luncheon, forgetting that failed FX traders like WhiteDesire, who sometimes tags along, simply cannot reciprocate at that level of expenditure. Doris has already admitted that fleeing to the lavatory when it's her turn to pay the bill (however inexpensive the restaurant) is a common ploy. As Hedda says (or used to when she was a regular poster here), "Always remember the little people, and they will remember you".
