If you thought I was a bit negative in my original trip report, here's a good news story. One night I went to eat at Little Mango restaurant in Soi VC because a boy I knew from Wild West Boys now works there. After a few minutes of chat it was obvious neither of us were interested in the other. However, a guy from the ladies wear store next to the restaurant came to chat. A nice guy, about 25, who was clearly interested in me and wanted me to meet him when his store closed at about 1.00am. I was flattered but he wasn't my type (I know, how can I afford to be picky?). And 1.00am is way past my bedtime. So I declined his offer.

On another night I was back for dinner and again he came to chat, with the same result. But it was a nice ego boost, and perhaps proof there's some life in the old dog yet. :old:
