Well as a few TD members seem to have a strange fascination with bars I thought that I would provide a few photographs for the dilectation of those who have been fortunate so far in not visiting the ones in Hua Hin.
The bars such as they are a generally grouped together in a few side streets with Soi Bintabaht being the longest and contining the largest cluster of bars.
And here is a view down the street
Not exactly Walking Street is it.
Moving a little down Soi Poonsuk there are a few more bars pretty much same same
And then turning 90 to my right -
And then 90 right again -
Now those of you who have made it this far, take note of the bar on the right in this last picture 'Lolitas'. This bar represents a departure from the normal open air beer bar that has been the mainstay of Hua Hin nightlife in the past - Lolitas is in fact a 'roll of drums' blow job bar.
Much to the disgust of the Hua Hin local expats, who have greeted it's opening with a certain amount of harumphing and strong letters to The Times, Lolitas opened with a bit of a whimper on 1st August and in the interests of research I felt it necessary to cross its threshold and meet the owner, who is seemed quite a nice chap and not the horned devil incarnate that I had been led to expect.
Prices? I hear you shout. 700B for a blow job and 1100 for a full service. The girls have been brought in from Bangkok where I gather one of the partners has a similar establishment on Sukhumvit Soi 8. There were only 5 girls working there when I went in but they hope to bring more girls in later - presumably when they have some customers for them.
If I sound cynical and unenthusiastic about the whole thing thats only because I am an unenthusiastic and cynical c**t. The bars are actually quite relaxing with little pressure to buy drinks and the girls while often not the most beautiful usually make up for it in personality.
I am available for guided tours from November onwards - will work for beer.
