    Re: Has Jomtien Complex Peaked?

    Sorry Dodger but I don't remember it that way. It was often the only bar open after 3.00am and a place I would often head to after hours due to its late opening tines and vibrant atmosphere. One unpleasant incident but that's in the past.

    Double Shot had generally good service with quick attentive staff (hot in the bedroom too)

    Let's agree to disagree on this.

    At least for me, the day Michael (Crabby) and Thomas left Corner Bar, that was the true beginning of the end for Sunee Plaza. Everything seemed to slowly fall apart after that Again for me, the straw that finally broke the camel's back was the day Eros closed. After that I really had no further interest in Sunee Plaza and have hardly ever been there ever since.

    For me Double Shot / Corner bar never been attractive. I always saw deserted bar where boys playing pool and were busy to entertain themself.

    I was frequent visitor of Come In and Yaya bars and always wondered how DS/CB survived...

    Does anyone remember Sportsman's Bar (which later became Corner Bar)?

    Sportsman's was very busy especially in the afternoons but most of the boys who hung around there needed step-stools to reach the bar stools. A lot of German clientele if memory serves me.

    Michael (Crabby) and Thomas were a hoot...loved the place...always a good time. I also like little Yaya Bar across the soi and would routinely bounce between the two bars (meant literally) visiting the boys.

    BTW...if anyone's interested I just ran into Yaya a few weeks ago. He was instructing an outdoor yoga class in Dongtan right next to the parking area. He looked great...hasn't aged a day.

    Wouldn't it be great if all the Sunee bars opened again. The dream of a lifetime.

    Yes, according to Yaya Barry is doing fine. They are still together and were married a while back, but of course their marriage isn't legally recognized. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if they didn't plan to tie-the-knock officially when gay marriage becomes legal later this year.

    If you remember Bas from Yaya Bar he has apparently adopted the liking for photography, no doubt being encouraged by Yaya who was/is quite the enthusiast, and can be seen in/around Jomtien Complex with a camera around his neck. Bas and I shacked up for a while once...great guy all around.

    Also, if by chance you remember Dee from America (black guy who always smiles) who visited Barry almost on a daily basis, I ran into him as well a while back and he now hangs his hat at View Talay near the Complex.

    What great memories!

    Sure, I remember Bas and meet him every visit to PTT.

    Also I know about Ef - he is still running massage parlor at next soi from Sunee.
