Sunday 06.12.2015
Stay 18:30-20:48. Nude day, but customers mixed nude/towel/underwear. About 50 customers throughout, looks promising!
Saturday 12.12.2015
Stay 20:42-21:50. Looks promising. Finally a boy whom I had in Feb 2015 (?) from hornet and who worked in Classic Boys and whom I would like to meet again but lost contact with appears! Exchange contact details. Update: see him again two weeks later in my room, everything fine.
Monday 22.02.2016 (Makha Bucha day)
Stay 19:02-21:30. One cute staff. About 30 customers throughout. Several customers worth a second look. Poor quality porn. Toast with jam as long as lasts. Get new towel after asking at reception (the one towel they provide is poor quality, after one use it's a wet rag). Part of the sauna is open only Fri to Sun 20-1 (note in Thai on the door).
One boy looks cute and has nice underwear and warm and dry skin (touch several times in labyrinth, he does not reciprocate). He doesn't seem interested, so I give up. But then see him in the shower: big dick. One last attempt. Follow him to rooftop where he smokes. Chat him and up and exchange Line. Will meet some time.
Leave and wait in vain for bus 149 or 507 from 21:32 to 22:18. Lines 68, 79, 80, 203, 511 pass. Finally get on 79 to Siam and take taxi from there. Happened to me twice (long wait, no bus) that I remember and friend reported similar difficulties: no direct bus (149 or 507) to Sathorn at night.

Here some selected Line chats with attention
deficit hyperactivity syndrome boy (ADHS-boy) to show what short attention span he has. The only way to get him is when he wants to come and is ready to hop in a taxi or bus. All longer planning will fail.

Not unhappy about how that turned out. If he
had come, nothing to gain, it would only inconvenience me (stay up and wait for
him when I want to sleep) and cost me money. Invited him nonetheless to show my commitment. This is European thinking: adding up good deeds. But I don't think he tracks realized and failed meetings, so I can as well tell I'm not free when a visit would inconvenience me (and that would be as little as having to wait 1 hour for him to come when I want to go to bed at midnight).
----------
Addendum. Couldn’t make this up. My interpretation of following chat in short: His parents have an argument. He wants to stay at my place over night, and bring his mother along. Alternatively, he needs 2000 Baht to travel with his mother to his home province. Then lowers to 700. Then loses interest.

Basalt columns in Phrae province
Basalt columns in Phrae province
When lava solidifies, it can form columns of regular geometrical shapes. Hexagonal is most common.

How I got there:
I went from Sawan Khalok สวรรคโลก to Sri Satchanalai ศรีสัชนาลัย by bus, to find that there is no public transport in that direction. Hence switch to hitchhiking (along hwy 101 to the begin of hwy 1177, then to the begin of hwy 1125 and walk to begin of hwy 4039 at km marker 1 of hwy 1125) and finally rent mocy with driver at the village (250 Baht return 10 km each way including 1 hour walking around). There is an infrequent bus from Phrae แพร่ to Wang Chin วังชิ้น which should pass on hwy 1125.
Gate on hwy 1125 km 1 (31 km to Wang Chin, 66 km to Long ลอง, 43 km to Sri Satchanalai, 54 km to Den Chai เด่นชัย) to hwy 4039 (near Wat Amorn Tham วัดอมรธรรม). Google maps has shorter accesses elsewhere from highway, I drove past but didn't see signs.

10 km further, entrance to area with columns.

View from visitor parking (with pavilion and toilet) at location
17.8364523,99.8031279 = 17°50'11.2"N 99°48'11.3"E
to first hill:

First hill Chao Archya Hill ม่อนเจ้าอาจญา:

Second hill strangely columns not vertical like elsewhere:


Third and most impressive hill ม่อนสะเดาะเคราะห์. I guess the indentation is man-made to show the columns clearly. The white stain is from rubbing powder to read future lottery numbers?



All in walking distance (total 500 m round trip) from car park and suitable for everyone if you can walk on uneven ground. No other visitors during my stay (about 1 hour). The place could do with some maintenance in form of removing plants and dry leaves that cover the rocks.
I found out about this place by chance from the internet
(it's not in the standard English or Thai language guidebooks I know):

Hunting for food
Hunting for food
There is some special food that is not widely available, I have to buy it at the few places where it is available.
From top to bottom, left to right: physalis, kumquat, mao berry juice, pumpkin chips, sala loy gaew.

Physalis (the Thai call them cape gooseberry เคพกูสเบิร์รี due to their origin from South Africa), slightly sour taste.

Kumquat ส้มกัมควอท or ส้มจี๊ด somchíd or ส้มกืมจ๊อ look like mini oranges, but slightly sour taste and can be eaten with peel. Label: Thanaton Orchard สวนส้มธนาธร www.tntorchard.com. I spotted them by chance at a market in Ramkhamhaeng, as an ingredient for salad and asked staff where they bought them. Haven't seen them anywhere else (checked Klong Toey, Nang Loeng, Bobe market).
Physalis and kumquat keep 2 weeks in refrigerator (check if there are any rotten before storing). They come from Chiang Mai province and are available during cold season.
Availability and prices:
Physalis 500 g for 100 Baht in Narathiwat Ratchanakarin Soi 5, Silom Soi 7 (Narathiwat end) (both close to sky bridge of BTS Chong Nonsi), On Nut (between Sukhumvit and Big C On Nut), Nang Loeng market, Chinatown (2nd hand information), Makro Ladprao, Doi Inthanon roadside.
Kumquat 500 g 25 Baht Makro Ladprao (only place I know). Those I bought on 15.02.2016 seemed to be the same batch as those from 25.01.2016, and there were only two bags left on 15.02.
Mao berry juice 200 ml 35 Baht OTOP shop Sakon Nakon. Sometimes spelled mulberry มัลเบอรี่, the plant used to feed silk caterpillars.
Pumpkin chips (don't remember where exactly I bought them, Khlong Padung Krung Gasem floating market?).
Sala loy gaew สละลอยแก้ว glass with total 470 g contents 100 Baht Tourism Fair Lumpini Park January 2016. From Chantaburi province. (I tried to remove the label, but glue is insoluble in water.)
No physalis or kumquat in:
Max Value Gateway Ekkama, Foodland Patpong, Makro Narathiwat, Big C Saphan Khwai.
I would be grateful if readers could point out where I can get any of those above.
For my favorite food from England and Germany see here:
http://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2014/05/my-favorite-food-from-england.html
http://christianpfc.blogspot.com/2014/05/my-favorite-food-from-germany.html
Update: In Chumpon (bus stop at highway) I had fragrant banana cake เด็กกล้วยหอม, which was delicious. Would like to get this in Bangkok as well.
Update 5jan2017: physalis 300 g 69 THB and kumquat 500 g (no price, probably 25 THB) in Makro Narathiwas Ratchanakarin.
I had significant losses (about 30%) of physalis bought on street market (Nov 2016 to Jan 2017) to mildew. Best to take them out of the bag and discard rotten ones, and spread the others and check regularly.
Update 14jan2017: physalis 300 g 89 THB (reduced from 99) and kumquat 500 g 29 THB in Tops at corner Sathorn / Narathiwas Ratchanakarin (near Chong Nonsi BTS).

Physalis (the Thai call them cape gooseberry เคพกูสเบิร์รี due to their origin from South Africa), slightly sour taste.
Kumquat ส้มกัมควอท or ส้มจี๊ด somchíd or ส้มกืมจ๊อ look like mini oranges, but slightly sour taste and can be eaten with peel. Label: Thanaton Orchard สวนส้มธนาธร www.tntorchard.com. I spotted them by chance at a market in Ramkhamhaeng, as an ingredient for salad and asked staff where they bought them. Haven't seen them anywhere else (checked Klong Toey, Nang Loeng, Bobe market).
Physalis and kumquat keep 2 weeks in refrigerator (check if there are any rotten before storing). They come from Chiang Mai province and are available during cold season.
Availability and prices:
Physalis 500 g for 100 Baht in Narathiwat Ratchanakarin Soi 5, Silom Soi 7 (Narathiwat end) (both close to sky bridge of BTS Chong Nonsi), On Nut (between Sukhumvit and Big C On Nut), Nang Loeng market, Chinatown (2nd hand information), Makro Ladprao, Doi Inthanon roadside.
Kumquat 500 g 25 Baht Makro Ladprao (only place I know). Those I bought on 15.02.2016 seemed to be the same batch as those from 25.01.2016, and there were only two bags left on 15.02.
Mao berry juice 200 ml 35 Baht OTOP shop Sakon Nakon. Sometimes spelled mulberry มัลเบอรี่, the plant used to feed silk caterpillars.
Pumpkin chips (don't remember where exactly I bought them, Khlong Padung Krung Gasem floating market?).
Sala loy gaew สละลอยแก้ว glass with total 470 g contents 100 Baht Tourism Fair Lumpini Park January 2016. From Chantaburi province. (I tried to remove the label, but glue is insoluble in water.)
No physalis or kumquat in:
Max Value Gateway Ekkama, Foodland Patpong, Makro Narathiwat, Big C Saphan Khwai.
I would be grateful if readers could point out where I can get any of those above.

Update: In Chumpon (bus stop at highway) I had fragrant banana cake เด็กกล้วยหอม, which was delicious. Would like to get this in Bangkok as well.
Update 5jan2017: physalis 300 g 69 THB and kumquat 500 g (no price, probably 25 THB) in Makro Narathiwas Ratchanakarin.
I had significant losses (about 30%) of physalis bought on street market (Nov 2016 to Jan 2017) to mildew. Best to take them out of the bag and discard rotten ones, and spread the others and check regularly.
Update 14jan2017: physalis 300 g 89 THB (reduced from 99) and kumquat 500 g 29 THB in Tops at corner Sathorn / Narathiwas Ratchanakarin (near Chong Nonsi BTS).

Gay activities Jan 2016
Gay activities Jan 2016
01.01.2016
Seed 00:37-2:57. Up to 20
customers, some cute. Receptionist tells me they have no towels at the moment.
Knowing the poor state the showers are in, I showered at home before going.
Hook up with a boy in darkroom: brown skin (can judge skin color despite poor
light; white skin reflects more light), slim, warm and dry skin. He sucks me,
another boy fucks him, others join for groping, wanking, sucking. A little orgy
and I’m right in the middle (have my lips on the boy’s neck or shoulders, my
hands on his chest, abdomen or butt or the boy who fucks him’s balls).
Unfortunately there is no
dedicated cocksucker amongst the audience, several have a try, but none sucks
long enough for me to cum (in mouth, everything else would be messy and a waste
of cum). However a boy comes over my chest, so I have to go down to reception
(nude, with cum on my body) and ask for a towel, fortunately now towels
available, and take shower in their very poor facilities (cold water, bucket
and scoop). In better light, the boy I had in dark room did not look that
inviting. Spend some time on internet, then continue touring the place. Another
boy is interested, looks cute and slim, warm and dry skin, so we go on balcony and
he fucks me.
Finally I am getting the concept of darkroom: skin color is not that important, neither is cute face. By chance, discover the switch for fan in top dark room: it’s the automatic fuse below ceiling next to bathroom door (no light at all in bathroom). Considering that nothing else there gets repaired when broken, I could switch it off then break off the handle.

Update: the day after by
chance I read their Line, staff posted a message: There is a Farang with big
cock, which coincides with my visit.
Continue to Farose 2
3:16-4:42. Over 50 customers, music level in karaoke now bearable without holding
my ears when passing through. Several cute boys. 4 adult cats and 3 kitten on
rooftop kitchen. Have dinner there, food spicy as usual. Hook up with a cute
boy and find a room that has recently been renovated and light works! Spend
some quality time there, he wants to fuck me but doesn’t get hard, finally he
wanks me and I cum. A very positive encounter, a lot of fore play, dark brown
warm and dry skin, great butt, neck, shoulder, chest, abs; however a body hair
problem. He seems to be aware of this (pubes shaved but partially grown back,
unpleasant feeling on my skin). In Bangkok only one day, from Nakon Sawan. I
have been to Nakon Sawan once, will go back on the next occasion! (Update:
Went to see the boy on 9.-11.02.2016, everything fine.)
Taxi home, but my day is not
over yet. Friend reported he runs in Lumpini park in the morning and there are
cute boys. Go for a run 5:27-6:43, number of visitors from over 100 to over 500
estimated, spot two boys I would take for free. (Similar in the evening, I went
running around 6 pm a few times, 1000 people in the park and up to 5 so-so
boys.) That was the first sunrise I witnessed this year, and I hope it is the
only.
Sunday 03.01.2016 Phnom Penh Cambodia
Amam spa. While I take
shower, a hand reaches into my shower cubicle. I grope back: slim body, no body
hair, warm and dry skin. Follow him to private room (overlooking the internet
corner, has enough light). After some foreplay, he beckons me to wait (very
limited English, we didn’t speak much) and comes back with condoms and we have
a good time.
Later at night an
acquaintance from facebook comes to visit me in my room. After some chat he
takes action and we have a good time, although I cannot cum again. First
boyfriend candidate this year, a Cambodian for a change. First encounter via facebook (he is a friend's friend and messaged me).
Life is cruel and unjust: two
opportunities for sex hours apart, and then days without anything.
Sunday 10.01.2016 Saigon
Vietnam
A boy from hornet comes to my
room. Bordercase, but he makes the first step so I won’t let him down. Wild and
kinky which is not so much my style.
Saturday 16.01.2016
Seed 00:01-01:06. Over 20
customers, some bordercases. Candlelight (for romantique or electrical failure
not repaired?). Same staff now (before new staff every time I went). Nude day
only partially observed, several customers in underwear.
Farose 2 01:28-04:32. Brimming
with over 100 customers throughout my stay. Much more smoking (cigarettes) than
ever before, and many customers fully dressed. There is a show (ladyboy lipsync
and boys dancing in costumes). Some other Farang. Several bordercases.
One cute boy Tan is fully
dressed in disco and smile at me. Later undresses to underwear (nice) and have
some touching (warm and dry skin). He dances long time, and I wonder if it’s
worth waiting or go home. But then he leaves and does not come back, and I rush
through the sauna hoping to find him. Finally, in the floor with rooms I find
him and his friends. It takes a while, but then we go to a room and have a nice
time. Ask for his locker number so I can put my name card in his locker. No
call. The whole episode looks like I have been at the receiving end of a pity
fuck.
Missed call from unknown
number while I was in Seed. Z is in front of my building and he sees light (but
that’s from a friend who stays over night, I tell him I’m in Ramkhamhaeng).
When I’m in taxi coming back, call from an unknown number and I don’t recognize
the voice. He does not reply his name or location, but tells me he is in front
of my building. When I arrive I see Z waiting, he had the security guard call
me. That means he waited 4 hours (00:30 to 4:30), because he has nowhere else
to go, or everyone else is sleeping already.
He seems to be down
emotionally and asks me to hug him, so I give him a long hug. I get stung by
mosquitoes and ponder what to do next. He had some alcohol, I can smell it. There
is a vacant room in the building (I saw daytime security guard with a potential
renter), but nighttime security doesn’t have keys. Z grabs an empty beer bottle
from the security guard’s booth and I wonder if he wants to hit me with it, or
smash it to threaten me, or cut himself with shards (he has some scars that
seem to be from self-harm). Security guard takes it out of his hand. I tell Z
he can sleep on the floor (in the hallway, not in my room!) and let him in,
give him water and bananas, pillow and duvet. He returns it the morning and
leaves.
Later I wonder: if he is really
desperate, he could set fire to my bedlinen in front of my wooden door and
cause significant disturbance and damage. Who will be liable for the damage?
Sunday 17.01.2016
Meet friend and go to Soi 4
for drink (about 20:30-22:05).
The most popular gay hangout,
but it’s a tourist trap. It’s in all guidebooks and internet, and everyone goes
there, and so did I religiously during my first holidays, with this nagging
impression “What am I doing here? It’s shit! But why are all the others here?” that
was confirmed a few months ago by chat with a friend who thinks the same.
Today music level was ok, we
didn’t have to shout at each other. Sitting outside, you have fan blowing (I
hate air drafts), and if you are particularly unlucky someone on the
neighboring table smokes. Crowded on Sunday night (can’t blame them for that). If
there is any cute boy, invariably in company of a Farang.
This visit served merely to
confirm above findings: Soi 4 is not my style. But I get free gay maps and
magazines from there, and walk through when I’m in the area, so once per year
it’s appropriate to order a drink.
Then stroll Soi 6, 8,
Patpong, Surawong, Twilight. Drink prices have risen since my last stroll in
December 2015:
Tawan 400, Screw Boys 300
unchanged, Hotmale 380, Dream Boys 450 (unchanged, but was 500 during highest
season), X-Size 360, Classic 350 unchanged, Fresh Boys 380 (now 400 Feb 2016),
X-Boys 400.
Proud 66 massage in Surawong
is gone. My business with this massage in 2013 is described here: http://www.gaybuttonthai.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=5740
And there was one
particularly persistent boy who used to grab my arm every time I walked past. Good
riddance to bad rubbish!
The boys I consider cutest
from Bangkok and Bonny Massage and Scorpion bar play pool under X-Size Bar. I
have said it before, it’s detrimental for business, a boy who plays pool there
does not attract customers to his venue and does not earn money. It might be
they had a customer already that day, and at those prices one is all they need
and now squander the money?
Tuesday 19.01.2016
Another picture of stolen underwear appears on the boy who tried to steal my camera's facebook:
(I have lost track of how many sexy underwear I have, so when I see it on his facebook I think "that's mine!" and go through my collection and can't find it.)

Dinner with friend at
Yodpiman, then Pak Klong Talad Flower Market, then Bangkok Light of Happiness.
Split afterwards, friend goes home, I go to Saranrom.
Saranrom 20:52 -22:03. Count
13 boys, one of them cute. His phone was stolen but I get is facebook. Give the
cute boy and a friend 100 Baht each for happy new year.
The area is being gentrified:
old buildings have been renovated and now have shops/cafes/restaurants. The amulet
market is gone (info from friend, not confirmed). Homeless people who camped
there and had a small shop for second hand books (!) and drinks are gone. All
detrimental to business.
Taxi home, but get out
already at end of Sathorn Soi 1 to walk the rest. Walk past Z who is sitting on
the kurb stone with a girl (Thai, about 10 years old?) next to him and nobody
else around. He holds his hand out, so I stop and shake it. He points to the
girl, so I say and hello and wave to her as well.
“She lost her mum.”
“How did that happen?”
That might be one of his
tricks, and neither my rent contract nor my visa status allow me to run an
orphanage, and my parole officer wouldn’t be trilled either, so I wave goodbye
and leave to their destiny.
At least I thought so. About
an hour later, a knock on my door. Can’t see anyone through the peek hole (he
did that before, staying on the side so I can’t see him!), chain my door before
opening. It’s Z who wants to sleep in front of my room again. I can smell he
had a cigarette recently. Hand him pillow, duvet, water, but do not unchain the
door.
Another boy will stay with me
later that night. When he arrives, the door downstairs is locked, so I throw
him my key down through the window and he climbs over sleeping Z to get into my
room.
The question is: is Z just
trying to manipulate me again or in a real emergency? “Cry wolf” comes to my
mind, he has lied and tried to manipulate me so many times.
Other people in the building
will notice him in front of my door and might tell my landlord. Better I tell
her myself and get a decease note, so I can tell Z my landlord forbids me to
let him sleep in front of my room.
In the morning, he is just gone (better than knocking and waking me up!):
In the morning, he is just gone (better than knocking and waking me up!):
Update: asked a Thai friend
who works nearby and whom I have seen with Z. He does not know him (Z) well,
but thinks he genuinely seems to have no money, no job, no place to stay.
Friday 22.01.2016
Spot Z with new shirt and
customer.
Seed 23:21-00:13. Over 20
customers throughout, one bordercase. But the cashier is cute and seems
interested, so I give him a hug and we end up having foreplay on the floor
behind reception, but don’t take it any further. Exchange Line.
Saturday 23.01.2016
On a research mission for
abandoned cinemas, I spot a group of boys near Chan theater. One says hello, so
I join for a chat. The cutest of them, Fluk, leaves shortly after by mocy
before I can exchange contact information (at least I have his name). (Update:
went back two weeks later, the boy was there again, exchange Line.)
Seed 00:27-01:23. Over 20
customers. Nude day, but most customers in towel. I found some activated light
sticks in front of (former Lumpini boxing stadium, had a music festival that
night) and brought them to Seed and spread them in dark areas. Now the bathroom
on top floor is usable with light stick (before there was no light at all).
Farose 2 01:47-03:29. Busy,
there is a show about 2 to 3 am. Several nice underwear or nice bodies.
Monday 25.01.2016
Chatted up some cute Burmese boys at Klong Toey market in Dec 2015 and exchanged Line. One of them SL wants to practice English, and today is the day. Agree to meet at his workplace. He isn't there when I arrive, but comes about 15 minutes later. He wants to go to my room (his room is too small or dirty), that's a first.
On the way to bus stop, one of his friends YY joins us (that must have been planned, if I had taken him another way, what then?), which is fine for me, the more the merrier. SL can read and write English, but doesn't know Thai; whereas YY can speak (but not read and write) Thai, but doesn't know English. We spend about 1.5 hours in my room talking in slow and basic English (I and SL, YY quiet).
I wouldn't throw either of them out of bed to let my dog in, but I was hitting on another boy YW (had his Line, but he has gone quiet) who is gorgeous. SL stays with 3 friends, have to try to get access to their room next time. Offer them hot shower in my bathroom, free WiFi, internet, whatever.
Update Feb: 3 failed meetings (chat the day before and again in the morning, intention to meet, then slow in reply, message read and not answered, no show). At least it comes at no opportunity cost: the boys work 8pm to 6am, so we meet around 10am-12, a time where I'm alone in my room and I'm not missing anything waiting for him in vain.
