As regards Air Asia I've shrunk slightly lol I was over 6 foot 3 but around 6 foot 2 now. I'm around 107kg as well....Wasnt the width of seat but purely the pitch that was the issue Pacific Breeze has an ATM inside foyer I should have added. Didnt use it personally Used the ATM at PB regularly, worked a treat each time although I did let my bank know I was in Asia (China and Philippines) Double LDs are a bit of a pain if being hit up for them but this trip (late December) I was asked on every occasion if it was OK for a DLD and where I wanted too I said OK. Mostly when entertaining a new lady off the stage or waitress I tended to tell them I would buy them a single LD but maybe later would buy a DLD if they held my attention, usually that meant just buying the SLD before I moved on. My experience is that buying SLD has never been a problem to the girl, a lot of guys seem embarrassed to deny them a DLD though and more fool them. I am aware from some forums that some of the lower Fields bar only have DLD but those bars were mainly the Korean owned bars that I tended to keep away from. The bars from Shooters up towards check point were still offering SLD as well as DLD so I never bought DLD unless I agreed in advance which I did in Insomnia bar on a few occasions as I was comfortable there. We still hold the gold and right now it is not busy in the bars from what I have recently been told. I was thinking of going in April and going via Hong Kong would be my normal route but that together with travel from China and Macau has been restricted so I would need to go a different way. I am sure that many Koreans are not traveling so Angeles may be a good destination for those who can get there. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(so we wouldnt know) Having said that some of Girls were drinking a single SML but still 350 P Any bottled drink is a DLD 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biggles Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 Basically the idea of a DLD is that a bottled drink will last longer, so she spends more time with you and that costs more. Buying a SLD is a good idea initially as was said. Do your interview and either move on or pay the BF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yessongs Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Outstanding narratives, well done. Sadly, never made it to AC, but back in 1992 on a business trip to Manila, the locals took me to Makati. Some great looking girls there, but even though I was surrounded by Philipino co-workers, I never felt safe there, unlike Thailand. Seems to me I was getting the "stink eye" from a lot of the local guys. Maybe I was over reacting. They took me to "Baguio City" up in the mountains one week-end. That was nice. Nice people the Philippines. Great report..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcfc2007 Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Great TR @RR007. I stayed at the Pacific Breeze. The rooms were a bit dated but they were clean, the aircon worked, and it was in a good location. What is it with the girls dancing to the videos on the TV. The first time I seen it I laughed my dick off. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many hotels are much of a muchness and to me the way I was looked after by the staff in a hotel quite often dictated whether I ever went back. I always found that the Pacific Breeze scored very highly in that department both at Reception and in the bar/restaurant areas. Shame if it past its sell by date. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RR007 Posted April 15, 2020 Author Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'd forgotten the thread in the main but just reading it again I would say the only very minor mistake we made was the double ladydrinks when in the Girls "home" Bar. That and I'd "probably" try Scorebirds hotel next time about 50 metres from Pacific Breeze. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much money and too many girls blowing smoke up their arses in Pattaya has inflated their ego. When the girls are earning more than most of the punters you know something is wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I recently stayed in the Amari at Don Muang airport. The rooms probably haven't changed since the 90's, the aircon was weak, and it just felt dated. Not cheap either, and meant to be a four star hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horizondave Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 I must be used to poor quality rooms as I found the Pacific Breeze in late December 2019 fine, never remember thinking anything was unusual and it had been 2 years since I had been there. I did stay in the main building though and I know some will complain about the annex rooms which I wouldn't stay in. Prices reasonable compared to others, actual price had hardly changed in about 5 years but agree when comparing prices to Thailand and similar quality the Philippines is more expensive for what you get.

I have yet to visit a country where the hotels are as good vfm as Thailand. Poland came close but still not as good as Thailand. A decent hotel in the U.S is £150+ per night in most cities.

They are much more friendly in cambodia, they are certainly much more appreciative and grateful. I guess they haven't been ruined by guys buying them houses, cars, bikes, gold and sending them thousands of baht every month. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
