Fiery Jack Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 I'll throw in my 2 cents here, since I did finally attend a meeting on a recent visit. This June in BKK I set manfully out, come 7PM, after a hectic afternoon's heavy drinking at Soi 7 beergarden, for my "debut" appearance at a Friday night Gullivers meeting. Ably steered by concise directions to the establishment found on this very board I purchased a heineken and triple brandy sidecar for myself at the bar , spotted the famous "window seat" and strolled over to join the assembled Nanaplaza crew (about 8-9 people present, all in deep and friendly converstions, when I arrived). Parking my arse on a vacant seat, I loudly announced that my board-name was Fiery Jack and that I couldn't say I was ashamed of it. However, though some members acknowledged my presence and forced a weak smile, I felt that I was met with a less than ecstatic reception, I must admit. Some of the attendees simply carried on their own conversations whilst others, I felt, pointedly ignored me. No one introduced themselves or offered to buy me a drink. No problem. I tried once more to liven and lighten up the atmosphere by recounting a racy BKK tale involving myself, my pal Smoky, three Soi 7 Bargirls, "back door action" with various assorted vegetables and two cannisters of lighter fluid. :hubba: This colourful yarn, which has always served me well at dinner parties and functions, fell on decidedly stony ground, and in fact a couple of the women present pointedly rose to their feet and moved to another table. :: Well, I know where I'm not welcome, so after five or six more drinks :: and another few "saucy" monologues from yours truly , I bade the unsociable "company" farewell and headed for the exit, thinking I'd continue the evening solo at NEP and fuck the self-satisfied Nanaplaza crew with their tinpot little board and smug cliquey set-up. :: It was only when I got outside and onto Sukhumvit that I realised I'd taken a wrong turning earlier and had been sitting not in Gullivers but inside the Huntsman Pub in the basement of the Landmark Hotel. I returned and explained this error to the table of agitated Canadian Jehovah's Witnesses with whom I'd been attempting to parley, but they didn't seem at all interested in my humble apologies, in fact choosing instead to summon the manager to have me unceremoniously ejected from the establishment. It just goes to show you. :: Hope that's helpful. jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunsanuk Posted October 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi, "I find this slightly hypocritic as activities such as the aforementiond are in fact a very significant part of the board." While this may have been the case earlier, I think that the board has evolved a lot in the last few years and if you look at the volume of posts then nightlife related stuff (and especially those of a graphic nature) has been declining a lot. I do not know what the percentage is, but it certainly is no longer a 'very significant part of the board'. Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALHOLK Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi! You can however lead the trumpet playing heralders. Only if I can do it in the Monty Python/Terry Gilliam style. I.e. bending over with the trumpet im my arse. regards ALHOLK P.S. As I'm heading strait for Pattaya on the 20:th I wont be able to attend.

ALHOLK Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi! Just make sure that nobody is offended by electricity bills. It appears that these meetings are attended by some rather sensitive geezers. :: regards ALHOLK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted October 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi, "It appears that these meetings are attended by some rather sensitive geezers." And you wonder why you got the cold shoulder treatment in Woodstock? Sanuk! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALHOLK Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi! but it certainly is no longer a 'very significant part of the board' Maybe not regarding shere volume of the posts. However the name of the board suggests that it is about the sex relataed night life in BKK. I still think this is a significant part of the board. Just read the recent threads about APEC. Most of them are concerned with if the girls are showing, will the bars close etc. I have read numerous posts, by among others by you, to the effect that every one passing through BKK is welcome to the meetings. In my opinion this is clearly not true. While I was at the meeting at Woodstock another bloke turned up and was ignored as well. regards ALHOLK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALHOLK Posted October 24, 2003 Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi! Can this be true. Did no one actually offer to by you a drink. I am appalled. Even Jeovas witnesses shouldn't be so completely without maners. regards ALHOLK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khunsanuk Posted October 24, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2003 Hi, "I have read numerous posts, by among others by you, to the effect that every one passing through BKK is welcome to the meetings." Everybody *is* welcome, but whether or not they get along with whoever else is present at the same time is something I cannot guarantee. Anyway, I wonder why I try explaining since you have obviously already made up your mind. To all others, why don't you just show up and find out for yourselves? Sanuk!
