You are probably the first person I know who lost his way to SCB.

Well, not quite that I didn’t find it, it just a bit longer than it should. I walked down Soi 23 for 5 minutes from the massage place , then on the right hand side, all was revealed. Just what I was hoping for bright neon colourful neon lights and lots of people clearly out for a good time. I saw Baccara on the right, went in for a recce – impressive stage show both at eye level and looking up, but full of people and nowhere to sit. So I thought I’d see what else was available. Almost opposite I found Sahara – I was drawn in by a very easy on the eye Thai MILF in a black dress. Inside was a bright modern bar with hardly any customers, but a lot of very cute dancers on skimpy red costumes on stage.
My ‘greeter’ stayed with me for a drink (my beer Baht150 and the LD just over 200 I think) and I noticed that there was another slightly less attractive group of girls in skimpy black costumes with brown belts.
The Mama quickly pounced and cut to the chase quoting BF of B800 for my ‘greeter’ and B700 for the girls in black. The girls in red were ‘reserved’.
Next time I looked up from my drink, the girls in red had left the stage and been replaced the other group who were just wearing their, not particularly broad, brown belts.
I was finding my new acquaintance quite good company by this stage and rather than continue my, to date, rather unsuccessful wanderings alone decided to pay the BF and see what unfolded from there.
Having not long finished my massage experience, I wasn’t quite ready for a return to base, so asked my new friend to take me somewhere where we could have a drink and there would be some decent music. We got in a cab and soon found myself in Club Climax at The Ambassador Hotel (cover charge was about B250 each, including first drink). Excellent r’n’b cover band and a busy mixed crowd of locals, expats and tourists. I was fixed up, so didn’t pay much attention, but I got the impression that there were FL opportunities as well.
Left the club at about 1pm, as I had to leave for the airport at about 6am.
By this stage my new friend was obviously quite enjoying having been taken out for a few drinks and being treated with a bit of respect, so once we got to my hotel I got a very respectable payback in terms of enthusiasm, attention and expertise.
We parted on very good terms in the morning (after about an hours sleep) and I gave her the LT rate that had been quoted to me the previous night in another place (Baht4K), although no deal had been pre-agreed.
A much better outcome than my previous night, but still so much to discover.
