    Walking Street/Pattaya

    Last night I went out to see if I could find a library here in Pattaya. I thought it would be nice to catch up on some reading and just let the rest of the world go by for a bit.
    Strangely, while walking in South Pattaya, I bumped into a couple of mates who convinced me to come with them on a tour of Walking Street.
    For those of you that dont know, Walking Street is the Soho of Pattaya with all manner of folks from all over the world traipsing up and down right throughout the night.
    What struck me most about Walking Street is just how busy it is. There must have been 50,000 people there.
    Some glamorous, some sick and some just downright sad. If ever you are feeling low and in need of cheering up, I would recommend a soiree down Walking Street to cheer yourself up.

    Just one of a myriad of folks was this guy who is an amputee that sells flowers from his wheel chair on Walking Street.

    Walking Street is really quite a long bit of road that is lined with bars and restaurants and neon on signs light up its entire length.

    All along the soi you are welcomed by gals spruking for your custom in the many bars. These gals here are from the local netball team and just helping out at night at their Uncle's bar.

    Of course Walking Street caters to all tastes and if you arent careful you can be mistaken in thinking that everything is as it seems.



    This bloke for instance. At first glance you would think that he was your kid sister but such is not the case. His name is Norman and in the day time he works as a truck driver for the Muang.

    Of course Walking Street attracts some pretty moody types and it was good to see that the Tourist Police where there on duty looking after us falangs.

    Now let me dispell the myth that only Thai gals work the bars on Walking Street as this bar provides gainful employment to gals from Europe. Sorry about the picture quality but my hand was shaking as I hadnt seen a western gal dancing in weeks.

    You can view all these pics and many more in the Gallery. I put them into the dogs gallery just in case someone thinks that I am a sex tourist.

    Of course all this walking is thirsty work so we decided to find a nice bar where we could have a few Sa-prites. It was a difficult decision as there were so many bars to choose from.



    We ended up walking up one of the many soi's that lead off Walking Street and eventually found a nice relaxed place called Billion Bar. We had a nice chat with some gals in there and then went next door to Blue House.

    I took a friend and his girlfriend down Walking Street last year; she is an Indonesian woman who has led a fairly sheltered life.

    We visited a few girly bars and to be democratic included one of the gay joints in Boyz Town, expecting her to be interested in the the young chaps with bulging Y fronts. Surprise, surprise she was far more interested in the girly bars, which gave her an opportunit to compare her own equipment with that of the other girls. She was very surprised at the range of sizes she said.
    Lord, deliver us from e-mail.

    I can't believe how busy walking street is this time of year. I love the cheap beer at the gogos, though. A few weeks ago I found one with draft heineken for 20 baht!

    One of my favorite bars on Walking street is "Abbes," because I like the music. And you can people watch too, if you sit near the part close to the street.

    Happy hour at Champions is fun. Like the DJ.

    The bar? "Abbes?"

    "Abbes" is a beer bar. A few girls work there and go with folks, but I go there for the music and to people-watch. I usually warm up at Abbes with one or two beers.

    Then, when Happy hour startes, I go to "Champions." Champions is my favorite. Music, atmostphere, cool DJ (don't know if he's gone, now, it's been 10 long months since I was in Pattaya).

    "Happy A-go-go is cool" but packed and I have one or two there.

    "No. 10" bar (if still around) has music I like.

    I have a few other places I hit.


    I did go to the Russian Go-go last year, out of curiosity.


    I don't focus on the women much anymore.

    I can't drink too much these days, if I drank a couple in all those bars I don't think I could focus on anything anymore.

    Ah yes, the euro gals, as prostituition is illegal here I am really left to wonder what their work permit says, and what they had to do for the boss of the labour dept to actually get a work permit, still I bet he is a happy man now




    Anyway our first stop was at peppermint agogo, but when this Thai guy outside asked us to leave our 40,000bahts worth of cameras with him we decided against that, I mean who the fok is gonna leave that sort of stuff with some guy sitting outside some poxy agogo, what recourse would we have if he foked off with our cameras, would peppermint agogo reimburse us? of course foking not, so it was off to happy agogo, this place has been going for about 12 years and is really popular and they dont foking search you for cameras like those scum bags at the crappy peppermint agogo.

    We sat in the far right corner and there was a little stage there for one gal to dance on at time, these poor ladies also could not afford knickers, it is quite sad to see such poverty, although I have to admit that the quality of gals has gone down and the happy hour prices got shorter, but hell 95baht for a beer aint that bad

    We then moved onto Hooters, this is quite a weird place as you have to walk like 50 meters down a narrow corridor, outside they have the proud signs of 95baht for a beer which seems quite a bargain, alas when you get the bill it is 115baht for a beer, well it's only a 20 baht per beer rip off I suppose, but at 11.30pm they had about 12 customers, then the shows started gals with pierced labia lips danced around, and the fire lady was pretty awesome, lighting ppls cigarettes by blowing fire out of her mouth, I got to admit I was impressed with that, but alas most of the gals I wouldn't fok using the caps dick let alone mine, yep the line up was pretty poor, also a lot of these gals were poor aswell cos they couldn't afford knickers either, me and the cap are going to start up a charity, DONATE YOUR OLD KNICKERS TO US. then we will go round these sort of places and pass them onto these poor gals, see we have our hearts in the right places
