Starlight bar has been closed for a few years, owner got dragged back to the UK on kiddly fiddling charges.

Not sure what else is closed on that list but there is a few that I believe were/are closed.

Thanks. I don't get out to the bars around Mabprachan anymore so rely on others for updates.

It's a big building to try and fill. Maybe a possible location for Scooters Darkside.

bit of an odd ball though, long and thin and literally on the road.

If Scooter wants to set up darkside the old Hells Angels place further up the soi would be ideal with its potential for some closed gate discretion if thats the kind of bar they are....its empty too !!

Yeah, my bad. Saw that when I went to update the map and list. In my defense I was going from memory which is a dangerous thing to do at this point in life.

there is a few more on the list that I know are still open but have changed name, if I get a chance to go through the pics from my last visit an confirm I'll let you know.

There is a few new ones on Khao Noi too... if I took a pic I'll let you know name and location.

The bars closer in s/b pretty accurate with a few minor exceptions like Star Light. There is a tab on the Google sheet listing the changes made. Here's part of the list going back to July 2018. Think I've caught most if not all of the new bars and the ones with name changes.

Empire is open (or re-opening).

I thought Red lion was closed, well it was in Oct 2018 with the doors closed and a bar for rent sign on the door... I took no notice on my last trip.

 

Thanks. I'll have a look at both places in the next day or two to confirm.

Apparently Empire bar celebrated their reopening on 8 Feb.

Looks like Red Lion is still open for business, but with a for rent sign and some work taking place.

I remember a few bars on the darkside that had swimming pools where for a small service charge, the young ladies would would dive au natural for coins tossed in the pool.

They still do that? I was great to dry them off afterwards.

Black Pearl was infamous for that. Sadly the bar is now closed. I'm not aware of any others that offer the same entertainment.

Sadly another one that closed around March 2017. Other than resorts, the only bars that I'm aware of that are still in business and have pools are Azure (previously Fabrice) and Aqua-Deymie. I visited Aqua-Deymie last December and the pool had a layer of scum floating on top. Probably need a truck load of coins to get anyone to dive into that pool.

Coincidently I'll be joining a group of friends for a DS crawl this afternoon. I'll report back later on the current condition of pools and the state of entertainment available in the bars we visit.

I was a blast there, but ar out of the way and you had to plan to get transportation back, but that is one of the things that made it great!

No BIB, almost no coconut telegraph, and not shy employees. I never got or saw any BJ given as it was not a soi 6 sort of place, but nice hands on service.

Actually that was not the case. First, the women were not your "10" go go girls but just ordinary looking young ones but as they did not get too many customers, they were very happy to please and they knew that afterword you would help them dry off and a few bills too for the show.

My reference to needing a truck load of coins was for Aqua-Deymie's scum laden pool last December.

Ok understand. I sounds like you need to have some goggles to see through the scum to find the coins. When I was there, that was not an issue.
