Your paper bag must be considerably more opaque that mine - if you check the timeline you posted this at post #66 - I had already apologised at post #53 for missing Catty's reveal of Whitemouse

There, being Scottish and English that should shut the PAIR of you up from being mean to each other for a while at least ! :-)
Fingers crossed!
Joe, it was very good to meet you and your friend at Ting Tong Red bar last night. Enjoy your holiday.
Yes of course! That is common practice here, one boy even wrote to me:
"When you are there (the designated meeting point) you call me (and then I will go to see you)."
I'm not sure if it's poor experience with their compatriots who do not show up for appointment, or the inability to imagine that two people can travel at the same time to the same destination and arrive there at roughly the same time.
This put me in mind of my recently deceased friend of 25 years and Thailand traveling partner - in memory of whom I'll have to ring the bell in Oscars next time I visit.
Anytime I invited him to meet at a bar in our home city he'd always show up 5 or 10 minutes late. I spent a few years wondering why until I realised it was because, by the time he'd finally arrived, I'd already bought the first round of drinks!!!
:D
And you a Scot and it took you years to work out THAT old chestnut, hell thats straight out of the cheap bastards guide for scourging drinks, right up there with counting the rounds to ensure they don’t get caught for the mixers, pulsing ordering a PINT of coke when it’s your round telling you it comes out the same price as a pint of beer so why wouldn’t they - but yet just ordering a glass when it’s their round as “they couldn’t possibly drink any more coke” - until it’s your round again and then it’s back to the pints again. And not to mention the time honoured “that’s me, I have to head on after this one” after YOUVE just bought your last round.
And you a Scot - Shame on you, your forefathers will be turning in their graves at your not picking up on that and suitably countering him with subtely timed “oh I must just pop to the loo” when the next round was due ! :-)
Ok an unexpected update. Do you believe this story? I don't. We were out last night in Double Shot and had quite a heated discussion. He wanted to find a room, and then a job. I said, no you must have job to pay for room. I finished by saying I will send him a month's rent from home when he has a job. Magically, his friend called this morning to offer him a job in a furniture store in Sri Racha. So off he went, with a couple hundred baht for the bus.
These guys are inventive, you have to give them that.
Thank fuck for THAT as I thought I was going to have to send the red cross to go and repatriate you as you'd lost your mind there for a minute - and if you send that months rent you DO need your head seen too ! So, good for him, he's got a job, his friend can sub him if he needs it, Thai's do that all the time, so he'll have his salary soon so no need whatsoever to dip into your limited funds !
Wherever I looked for rooms in Bangkok, they required a deposit of 1 or 2 monthly rents. So a room that costs 4000 THB per month requires an outlay of 4000 or 8000 THB, money many don't have. But clever landlords rent the same room out at 200 THB per day, and those who don't have enough money for deposit somehow manage to cough up 200 THB per day, thus paying 6000 THB for same room!
And you tell us that the trip to Khon Kaen would be too expensive!
Joe, I suspect the anticipation and excitement surrounding this reunion were one sided. You became enamoured of him at one point but since then he has moved on in many ways and his decision to meet you in Pattaya was nothing more than a stab at getting some baht from someone who has never been the focal point of his life. Hope that doesn't sound harsh but if you have not been his sole supporter since you last met, it could hardly have been otherwise .
You live and learn and then live to fight another day
Welcome back to "amazing" Thailand......
In the interests of balance, if any farang contacts a former Thai flame with such zeal as was the case here then the former flame is going to have financial expectations. To think otherwise is defying reality. Risking the wrath I may be but if you've enjoyed this boys company for 4 or 5 days then he's owed something in return. You all know this is true. Sympathy for Joe notwithstanding. We'd all have plenty to say if it was Latin doing this.
Sorry i assume(d) that THAT was taken as read ( even by Joe ) as he has alluded to that being agreed recently, I think this "help me with the rent" is a secondary assault on the wallet more just perhaps - or am I wrong Joe ? ( when you come back)
^!Now THATS funny ! :-)
Glad the meeting in green chairs went well Joe, and delighted to hear that things are going well with Kwan.
Don't forget you have your really glamourous soiree to attend in Boyztown tonight though!
There is a morlam tonight on 3rd road in old xzyte site. So you all better bring your dancing shoes!

experience - a cruel teacher
Well, I can report that Joe definitely turned up for the meeting in Panorama yesterday evening. Along with him, there was myself and colmx and one or two board lurkers. If only Nirish had been there we could have convened an official meeting of the "Sawatdee GayForum- Irish branch".
But despite our depleted numbers we were still able to operate a quick raid in Cupidol to nearly clear it out of guys, before hitting the Morlam concert.
It was Joe's first experience of an outdoor Morlam and it may have been a bit of a shock to the system at first.
I think that Joe is planning a bit of a trip report after so I won't steal his thunder, except to say that I think a good night was had by all.
Ronan I had bee going to post about last night, but you covered the basics. The morlam was really good. I loved it. We then went on to another club, whose name I don't remember. It was now approaching 3 am, when I often get out of bed at home. So I took my boy after half an hour and left it to the youngsters.
The boy I offed from Cupidol was very good looking, but when we got back to my room he stayed less than 20 minutes. Said he had to get back to take care of his little brother. First real dud I've had. I gave him 500Bt and bade him farewell.
I understand it's colmx's birthday, so waiting for word on those plans. Thanks for a great night last night, Ronan and colmx.
Happy to hear that you are having fun on your much anticipated trip!
You should have offered to take care of his “little brother” for him, Joe.Quote:

And PS on that very subject would you and Colmx never actually think of coming home and doing ANY bloody work for a change as it appears that the pair of you have almost relocated yourselves to Pattaya 24/7 this last several months ! And no before anyone says "you're just jealous" - I am NOT jealous I'm just fucking massively ENVIOUS, there's a different - so, no, I'm definitely not jealous in ANY way - bloody MUCH ! Grrr :)
Evidently these boys aren't hungry enough...
Disturbing viewpoint if I may say so
I was going to create a new thread about the inaugural meeting of the Irish Chapter of SGF. Just to expand on Ronan's rather brief posts, these are the full minutes of the meeting.
Apologies were received from NIrish, who offered to host the next meeting on a small island he knows, which is apparently crawling with available young men. He calls it the Isle of Man, which sounds great. His apology and offer were duly noted and a vote of thanks taken.
In order to achieve a quorum, we drafted a friend of colmx, whom we shall call E, since he doesn't post here. It was agreed we needed to increase our membership, so we repaired next door to Cupidol. We quickly recruited 3 new honorary members, which meant we needed a bigger venue for out meeting. colm's partner T was in charge of logistics, and off we went to the morlam. I'd never been before and absolutely loved it.
When we left the morlam, we went to a club, but it was now approaching 3 am, so I made my apologies and left the youngsters to party away.
All in all, a very successful launch of the Irish branch. Looking forward to our next meeting.
Perhaps the next meeting could be live streamed?
No camera in Bar No camera in bar - put camera away, no photo !!!!! I mean COME ON SG how long have you been going to Thailand now and you dont know this, hell some people (Minimee) might start to think you'd never been there at all with comments about live streaming and what not ! :)
Oh and just to add to the Joy of the Irish contingent there - Joe you picked the right week to be away as the snow is hammering down here both in N.Ireland and Dublin it seems. It took me 3 hours to drive home from work tonight for what should be a 15 minute journey tops ! ENJOY ( you shits ! :-)
Well Nirish, I don';t want to add to what has obviously been a horrible commute. But I'll be off to Winner bar later, off a boy and have sex on the balcony. In my bra and panties!
Glad you're having a good time Joe. Can you just confirm you did take care of the boy who came to see you from Sriracha. There was some confusion, perhaps only on my part.
