    Army Declare War On Soi 6

    Not content with destroying Pattayas most famous daytime soi with 6pm bar opening times the boys in green were back on the soi yesterday ordering cops to fine folk who were smoking vapour cigs. Anyone caught smoking vapours in the bars were getting 2500B on the spot fines. It look likes the authorities after years of threats are finally trying to kill off the soi.
    It was quite stange watching soldiers ordering cops about.
    I was at the Queen Vic for food i may add not visiting any short time rooms which are also facing a crackdown.

    Wait.
    Give it a couple weeks.
    It'll pass.
    They'll have forgotten all about it.

    Moved on to another knee-jerk-fashion-of-the-month-club.

    Its supposed to be all bars but when you wander about during the day there are still plenty of bars openly trading. The 6pm thing is alchohol sales only. Bars can still sell food.
    Soi 6 seems to be getting special attention

    Could be our glorious leaders have recognised the profit potential of soi 6, either as is with uniformed owners or to demolish/rebuild/renovate and pack more of the same into the existing space. When Walking Street comes under major construction there will be lots of spare farangs to service other zones.

    I am very surprised at the total lack of publicity given in foreign media, and international tourist and traveller i-mag's, about this. I mean Pattaya is one of the worlds most (in)famous tourism and 'entertainment' destinations- and now officially bans the sale of alcohol until 6pm! Oh sure, you can get one nudge wink- but you are therefore commiting an offence, and are therefore at the mercy of any cop or tight greenie that is in the vicinity. And seeing as there seems to be a bit of a turf war going on between the local police and the men in tight green, the possibility of this happening is quite high.

    I can not believe the ineptitude of this junta.

    Meanwhile stones can be thrown from my central Abu Dhabi apartment at 6 bars serving alcohol from noon 'till 2 am.

    Also an off-license with wine at 3/5ths of the price in Thailand.

    In the opposite direction, 5 minutes walk away, is the well maintained beach, frequently featuring talented and toned female volleyball players in skimpy attire.

    Maybe burirambuffalo needs to update his filofax.

    Sounds like a great photo thread.

    Unless you're doing a Smeg.


    You might reply to that with one of his excuses not to, too.

    Given all the recent attention and Youtube / Facebook videos attracting comments from the holier-than-thou Thai population, Soi 6 might be under the cosh for some time yet.
    Until something shinier comes along anyways.

    Mind you, 250 thb on the spot fines for vaping twats is a good idea!..... The cunts are worse than real smokers. They just don't give a shit spewing clouds of faggots boudoir scented clouds into the air with nary a care !

    (not that I have been in a faggots boudoir of course!)

    Was at a mates bar yesterday and alcohol was flowing without a care in the world.

    Met a few old Teak Door posters there as well as Rawlins who seems to be doing well.

    I guess it is not what you know but who you know.

    Good to know. Rawlins was (I'm sure still is) a top lad.

    Last time I saw him he had his old man in tow.

    A great guy in real life.

    Does not want to associate with the pond life on here these days and they know who they are including Simple Cyrille and the thieving run away queen Dragonbutt!

    I was drinking in Soi 6 again last night and the place was very busy which is in contrast to the rest of Pattaya which is dead. This was after 6pm so I'm not sure if the day time ban is still in place. Also punters openly smoking and not a cop in sight.

    Not much LT on 6 however if you go next door to Soi. 6.5
    You will find loads of very atrractive lady boys touting for business and who will to take you up to their rooms for fun and games. They might let you stay for a cuddle after you have voilated their rectums.
