    There is a long way to go before the availability of boys in Pattaya falls to the level in the village where I live. Although, not quite zero at home, a choice is guaranteed in Pattaya.

    Well I've no idea where your village is, but the "availability" and the "desirability" are two different matters.

    What I posted was that in the future there may be "nothing worthwhile to spend it (your money) on", and even now some are reporting that the choice in BT is the worst they have ever seen.

    I think a +50yo massage "boy" was mentioned. I could get far better than that here at home, courtesy of Grindr (if I was looking)

    A while ago I had a look at exchange rate in Berlin Tegel Airport, and the for EUR to USD the spread was about 30%.

    When I go to Thailand, I bring a lot of cash (100 EUR notes) and use transferwise (which now almost matches exchange of cash) to send money to my Thai bank account.

    Just as an update to my above several of the airport / Silom booths were advertising rates around 41.6 etc yesterday, I ended up using super rich in robinsons mall ( I think Robinson a maybe central ?) where I got 43.9 - so definitely still worth checking around if exchanging larger amounts perhaps.

    If you're in the Silom area have you tried the new-ish Super Rich at Silom Complex - or is that the one you're referring to?

    Yeah that's the one - sorry, I've only had two hours broken sleep after a late night and now on the plane to KL so my brain isn't in gear at any level yet so couldnt think of the name above the mall door but as it WAS in Silom yeah of "course" doubtless that was it. Up on the third floor ? if I recall right beside the "up" elevator so very handy.

    Yes - Central Department store at the rear, although I guess I shouldn't talk rear entrances too much for fear of exciting the membership
