this is hard to answer because not only is it different for everyone, it changes for us on a regular basis. for example, when i first got here, day was:

11am wake up, shower, eat breakfast
play around on the internet/play poker until 2-3pm
hang around with my friends/watch them play poker/beach/pool/etc until 6ish
go somewhere to eat dinner around 7-8
go drinking at bars 10-11
disco 1-2
sleep 4-8

and that was pretty much my whole day. for awhile i was walking down teh mountain to Kata beach, and then hiking the length of Kata and Karon beach and back to my house every day, that would be a few hours every day around dusk.

sometimes we'll have a good basketball community and play 3 times a week @4pm in P-town (we're currently playing an average of once a week it seems) other sports happen as well. Football (Soccer), Volleyball, we've even had some Ultimate Frisbee games.

sometimes groups of 2+2'ers will go on streaks of lunching together every day, dinnering together every day, or both. one of my favorite stretches of time was a period where we had a large part of the community eating dinner together every night at various restaurants, while all the guys in Kata ate lunch together (usually Red Chair or Larb Kata) daily.

Black Friday has really screwed things up. previous to BF, the best time to grind for most people was 9am-1pm, which favored people waking up, grinding, lunching, going out and partying, and repeating. now, prime time has changed to be 11pm-5am or so.

community get togethers vary as well. my first 6 months or so here my house had a rooftop BBQ for the whole community every Friday, and other people would have get togethers about once a month or so. now, it seems like we average that kind of get together about once a month.

we're hitting scandi homecoming season, when the blonde haired people with funny looking letters in their language go home to visit their families for a stretch. I guess that's only two people this year, but still that's a multi week to multi month stretch of losing guys who live here.

money also influences my schedule. i'm currently busto-ish, so I'm grinding regularly and not going out hardly at all. My Girl has been living with me for the past two months, and i'm cooking a lot more rather than going out to eat a lot. those factors change things for me.

There are enough people around that it would be pretty easy if someone was motivated to, to have community beach outings regularly. it's not really happening right now, but there's more beaching going on than usual these days.

i guess that's about my best breakdown of what life is like. really, you can live whatever lifestyle you want here... and since so many people are considering moving here after BF, the community dynamic is bound to change drastically, who knows what will happen.

^ about how many 2p2er's are there that live in phuket atm? or at least, ones who participate in activities etc.

10-15 who have lived longterm and there are always maybe another 10-20 who just come over for 1-6 months

the only thing I participate regularly is basketball and that is usually 6-8ppl now. during high season it was 8-12 people

our barcrawls tend to have near 20 people these days, but those usually happen when there are a flurry of returning visitors

booked for the max

If thats the life you want it can be done with ease. If you want something different you can have that too.

For me it can become a drag. I often find myself searching for things to do to fill the days beyond poker/internet. Nights are easy obv (go on dates, go drinking, go clubbing, go whoring etc - you will never want for things to do after 8pm...).

Its a massive metropolis there is everything you would want to do so if you don't mind traffic and scorching heat go do it.

I personally spend a lot of time at Siam Paragon. Got a solid gym, California Wow. Multiple Starbucks, electronics stores, great bookstore (by BKK standards - kinokuniya) and tons of hotties w/ LV bags.

If someone can post in this thread before the next basketball game in Phuket I'll be there.

did you get my PM? i can add you to the facebook group but I couldn't add you as a friend on FB

Wake up 3pm, eat breakfast
Go to the beach for an hour
start drinking at 5pm
Sleep around 3am

That's more Samui style

Lol, I misinterpreted that as " I don't want to add you as a friend on facebook". But then I checked and it actually seems to be impossible to add me..

We are 2nd day in Thailand and am getting confused quite a bit in Bangkok.

Tomorrow we are heading to Kanchanaburi from Sukhumvit. As I understood we need to get a taxi to Southern bus terminal but now I read that there is the new one and the old one?

Any tips on how to distinguish new terminal from old one? If I tell a taxi driver that I need "southern bus terminal - Sai tai" will this bee good enough? Or we might again end up in the situation when some very nice and friendly Thai talks us into a tuk-tuk drive to Kanchanaburi or something like that

Thx for sharing guys, now I really can't f-in wait. Getting sick of nyc atm.

Never been there so don't know. But if I'm not sure how to explain to taxi etc where to go I just get someone at the hotel to write it in Thai to show the driver. Make sure the taxi guy uses a meter too and not just quotes you a price, some won't want to use a meter, just get a different taxi if that is the case.

Vish I was thinking you could revise your question you ask the whores to 'do you have a dick?' and if they say no, you can bang em, since they will obviously be honest about that (as your vast experience banging post op lb's shows)

Shut up you tit.

lol

I know, you are a tit.

what's wrong with ****ing ladyboys anyway?

Personally I'm terrified of the possibility that they would have the bigger schlong.

seems unlikely iyam

muscle relaxants are sold OTC spiv

is that chart in cm?

it would be possible he were to pick up a Mexican ladyboy...

inches, you're just really tiny compared to all of us..

LMAO...although Aussies second smallest doesnt seem right....

or is the chart only a measure of ladyboys.....not everyone....

so is it rude to grab and check in thailand bars? actually married so unlikely to get that close to find out.... will just look from afar and not consider that i got it wrong seems much safer.

both because I dont want to wake up finding out the wrong thing, and dont want to deal with my missus, that is the scariest part.....for sure.
