“Something quite different - not for heterosexuals”
Spartain looking rooms with exposed pipes, richard Rogers style on the celing. I had a doujble room which could have been quite small for two but there was a second bed. The main bed was between tow walls so you had to climb in from the bottom. Low lighting which was a bit difficult to see at times. No bedside lamp but I guess they're not expecting guests to be reading at bed time. Showers, toilet and basins are communal and likewise a bit dark. Otherwise very comfortable with excellent staff. Handy to the busy sauna which takes up the bottom three floors. this has steam and hot rooms, a swim ming pool, bars, cafe and restaurant all extremely affordable. On the third flooy you can have an excellent massage - genuine and no funny business - if you wnat that, go to the steam room or cruise area.

Getting off the ground

Making the Most of it and giving it a go
20th July
I have no strategy for dealing with Bangkok, a place I was in 47 years ago with Mum when I was 13. It was hot and humid then and it hasn't changed in that respect. There’s a sauna on the bottom three floors of the hotel and when the hotel staff remind me, I joke that there’s no need as Bangkok city is a sauna – …
Bangkok 2
Bangkok. Well, what can I say? I've been pretty lazy actually. Haven't seen many tourist hot spots. None at all I might add.
What I did see was how rapidly Bangkok is developing into a metropolis (as if it wasn't already). They're building everywhere. So you can see tall office buildings next to older and/or poorer neighborhoods. There's …

Day 57 and 58
... feet and nails were soooo filthy after a week of shovelling poo and emptying a mud pit! I don't think my feet have ever looked as clean as they did afterwards! Then I went to the airport to get my flight to Bangkok, then I got a taxi to Pear's I surprised myself by remembering the way to hers (most taxi drivers have to phone her to ask) and as they were out I waited outside for a ...
As Shar says - Oh My Buddha!
... too long, we would just go to the bar right after showering. But the really pleasant bar keep on the phone thought he could deliver it in about 15 min. This was perfect – so I ordered a “bucket” of beer. No sooner did I hang up the phone that this knock came at the door. I opened it to find the lady from the bar with the bucket of beer on ice!!!! I commented on how fast she was making the delivery since I just got off the phone. ...
