Trip 1 - Day 5

Thursday 26th October 2006
(The first FLB Bar Crawl with Hammer)

The day started late due to excesses of the night before, so we took it steady in the late afternoon /early evening as we were going on one of the infamous FLB / Hammer crawls.

We got to the FLB quite early, as Chris needed to pay Martin for his forthcoming party and I needed to pay the outstanding BF for Nok.

We leave the girls at the hotel with room keys, money for food and drinks and set off for FLB.

Having handed my money over to the Mamasan for the BF for Nok for 4 days (Wednesday - Saturday), she checks all the details and then comes over to have a word with Martin. I was told that Nok was 19 and not 20 as she had told me the previous day. Martin said that this was not a real problem as she could drink in the FLB as she was staff, but technically she would be breaking the law by drinking anywhere else. In practical terms, Martin suggested that we avoid any Discotheques and GoGo bars.

We wait for the rest of the BMs to arrive before voting on the crawl location for the night. The voting is close, but we are off to Soi 1 / 2. First stop Joys Bar where all the staff are dressed as schoolgirls and I just wished that schoolgirls had looked like that when I was at school!

Then off to a beer bar complex where we are entertained by girls that have come over from the Honey Pot.

Next it’s a short stagger to the Oh La La bar located within the same complex

Then it was off to Classroom GoGo and finally Honey Pot.

I am very taken with No. 45 Kob from the Honey Pot Club and may have to return another time to spend some time with her. Tim also seemed to have his hands full at the Honey Pot.

Once the crawl is declared as finished, it's back to the FLB where we stay until closing time.

We have a hotel room full of girls and we stay out drinking until about 03:00. We must be mad.

Not to worry, they have stayed up for us. I get in, have a shower and feel a little better.

Where else in the world would you leave your hotel keys with virtual stangers, then go out on the piss and find them waiting for you without demanding any explanations as to why you rolled in pissed up three hours late?

This city is crazy, but bloody good fun!

Here's a few other pics from the crawl for you guys. I cannot remember who everyone is and which bars, but I hope that you enjoy:
