Pii your style akin like mine lei. I also dislike to go places which full of foreigners.
Normally first round will be me, unless go to G clubs, then all share share cost.
Nowadays I like to go places fill with PGs. 555+ End of last year I paid a visit to Sam wan song keun at chok chai see.
Met my Singapore friend who running business in Bkk, we had a small talks and catch up over drinks. Many dek sao, and waitress 70% my taste.
As we talked in English, one of the PG over heard, she puzzled and asked why thai talked English with each other. We told her we not local, she shocked.
Things being to fun after that. Both me and my friend able to converse thai quite fluently, so we talked to her in thai, at same time we talked in English.
Same like Pii BD, I looking upon your juicy FR. In Laos they still able to understand thai, and thai bht still can be use if I'm remember correctly.
Happy chionging na!
