I am staying in Pattaya for 2 months and wonder if there are any members of this group meeting for coffee etc in the afternoon/evening. It would be nice to meet new people just for chatting and get to know some of the members of this forum.

Happy private messaging! :)
Oh..thank you so much! Makes this forum a little more friendly knowing we can contact other members.
I plan to stay at the JC from February 24 to March 11. It will be nice to meet new people.
Why don't we just plan a "Sawatdee Reunion" for the end of February for anyone who wants to attend?
We did this years ago and met up at the old Memories Bar/Sunee and had a great time.
Just a thought!
I
I haven't seen the glory days of Sunее, so this place doesn't mean anything to me. And I'm afraid, given the current situation, it will be quite boring there. Well, at least we can talk in silence ) I would still prefer the Jomtien Сomplex, although if the majority is for Sunее, of course I will come there. How about Saturday, February 25th?
Saturday Feb 25 works for me.
You guys just pick a bar - any bar - any place - Jomtien Complex seems better though.
I’d be interested. Prefer Jomtien also.
Jomtien has the action but lots of noise also although there are some quieter areas in the Complex for a get together. Sunee is much quieter such as Diamond Bar or Winner Bar outside.
With all due respect... will we have our "sit down" tomorrow? 8)
Having just left Jomtien and back in BKK: there are a few lower-scale, much quieter and also with fewer guys bars around the corner, and 1 of these is named SUNEE. So even if I will not be there: would that not be the best of 2 worlds then? But is also looks into that Venue+show from 22.00=when the noise starts. Even more quiet a few in that soi where the HTLs are along. But of course its all up to you, just a suggestion
btw-even when there I stuck to Lao guys and had great meets with them.
I always wear my gay flag bracelet on my right hand - I haven't seen any similar ones in JC or BT. My favorite hangout bar is Divarium, which is right in the center of the main soi of JC (Supertown). Boy Gaga on the side soi is also a good place to relax - they have nice music and smiley boys. Perhaps we could use some secret greeting words, for example: "Are you a friend of Dorothy's?" ;-)
There was at least one other get-together that hasn’t been mentioned so far. Maybe 15 or 20 years ago or maybe even before that. About 10 members met up at Cafe Royale, though the only one I can definitely recall was the late, lamented stalwart of this board “David in Pattaya”.
Dorthy's Show Bar would. be a nice place in Jomtien with Noom from LCR working there.
Sorry I am not there to join...
We'll be there ~Apr 20th. I want to make sure I miss Songkran as although I love Songkran, that sounds terrible for a blind guy.
I tried to attend a meeting in Sunee years ago. I found the right place but just got bewildered looks when I enquired. I forget the organisers nick name but it sounded strange when I asked people. Turned out I was a day early but I’d missed it by the time I found out.

Pick a bar, any bar!
Yep, I'm allowed back in Thailand sometime end of March -- can't remember exact day, so just go with Apr 1.
April 20th is the plan at least, although open to change. Should be 3 Asians and two white guys. Everyone has been working very hard and we're all exhausted with life, so we're just going to rent a house in Pattaya for a month with a nice swimming pool and blow off some steam.
Should be fun! After that, we'll get back to normal life.
I can't tell you how little I give a fuck about what other people think of me.
Well, except those close to me and whom I love. They're fine though and I ensure of that every single day. Everyone else can fuck off though if they don't like me. Those people can be gone, haha....

...I have absolutely no interest in meeting cdnmatt....none...zilch...nada...and if i was forced to at gunpoint Id bring a phycologist to assess him...
And if I ever had to meet latin, I'd bring an elementary school teacher to explain to him that it's spelled "psychologist", and not "phycologist".
american spelling perhaps...and stop distracting from the issue...like the whole trans thing...just because u self identify as blind....doesnt mean u r actually ....
Self identify as blind?
Wow, that's pretty low dude, even for you. You're one of those people where if we lived in a just society, immediately after you popped out of your mother's vagina, the doctor should have screwed your head off and the staff would have begun playing hacky sack with it around the delivery room. Unfortunately, they allowed you to stay alive, so now the rest of us have to suffer your inane, ignorant, totally non-sensical bullshit.
Self identify as blind? My optic nerves are dead, as in... my optic nerves are dead, you dumb fuck. While writing this, I'm not even looking at the computer screen, because well, I can't. I'm sitting here with a wireless keyboard and set of headphones while listening to screen reader.
If you had more intelligence than your average hamster, you would know that being blind isn't a fucken belief system, you dumb muppet.
Why don't you do the world a favor, goto Moscow and start protesting the war in Ukraine in front of the Kremlin? Then none of us would have to listen to your stupid bullshit anymore.
Wow! I can feel this Sawatdee meet-up is gonna be full of energy!
Sorry, I'm actually a really relaxed, laid back kind of guy. Also an excellent cook.
Except for that point. You have no idea how difficult it is to go blind, and how proud of myself I am for what I've achieved and accomplished in the dark like this. As far as I'm concerned, folks like latin can fuck right off with ignorant and close minded remarks like that.
That, and before I head to Asia I need to mark one item off my bucket list, which is to do an open mic night at a stand up comedy club somewhere in Vancouver. The above post is just kind of an example of how I'd deal with a heckler in the crowd, type of thing. Nothing to be taken seriously.
Here, to calm things down, have a laugh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEYwJHFiGcY&t=2m48s
oh dear...i see another self induced frothing at the mouth rant on the way...now whats that word for a male karen..
Screen reader. It speaks latin's version as "fi-col-ogist".
Upon thinking it was off, I copied and pasted it then went through it character by character.
EDIT; Sorry, to clarify, the Orca screen reader on Linux at least doesn't go off a dictionary or anything. Instead, it's been developed to read English phonetically. It literally just reads whatever it sees.
maybe its like google maps...where the lady that lives in my phone misprounces place names all the time.....
