too busy to choose?

[luvmylittlefatcat]

I had a great week in Phuket in mid July. It was low season and the bars were fairly quiet. It was great going out quite early to take my time and make a good choice. A couple of the agogo bars I went into I was the only customer-which was great. But what's it like the rest of the year? I want to come again in September. Is it going to be the same, or will it be so busy that all the good ones get taken early??? And what's it like in January.
Man, I'm desperate to come back! I've got withdrawal symptoms, and it's pretty much all I can think about!

Welcome to the club! Withdraw symptons are normal! Better after a week or so!

September is very quiet, will be same same but different.

The season starts by November, every week more and more people. Then it explode during the x-mas holliday! Honestly Patong is packed then! Too much for me honestely, but of course it gets so crazy then, that for a night out it can be very suprising!

After the holiday, it slows down a bit, to reasonnable levels, but the season goes on till about April, when everything really start to slow down more and more.

As long as its not the clap

No one really knows anymore how busy things are going to be. September will be quiet, and January well we all hope will be busy, but it will definitely not be a normal high season.

Hey Chiggerz/

I will be bringing my clubs too. We'll have to have a game or two. Then play a round or two at the bars also.

Cheers,

ashley,

sounds good.. i keep my clubs in phuket, so i will pick them up when i get there.

If it rains go directly to the 19th hole.

 

[syph]

Then on to the 20th. HOLE???

 

[mallorycat [RIPMJ]]

There is a "slight" difference. In Europe the 19th hole means the clubhouse/bar/pub and drinking, while for the Thais the 19th hole is deffinitely not drinking but... a place where they use their putter.

After the 19th + hole, i am going to take cute BG back and get my driver out!!!

 

[sweedishpolar]

Now, bookings are increasing, mostly from Singapore, Hong Kong... but there are also many promotions in Europe for Phuket, so let's hope the high season will be great.

The BG's should post their pic on this forum with a little comment "I wait u hansum man" :biggrinlo :biggrinlo :biggrinlo

Guys nobody really answered Jack 1234's Q re the availability of "the good ones" at Xmas and New Year........as l never have been to Phuket over Xmas (last year in Bkk) l was wondering the same thing !!!

 

[me!]

Why are you getting worried Mav?...555555..

I guess it will be every man for himself, But I would say there will be more girls there over the Xmas/New Year period..... Only time will tell whether Quantity = Quality mg:

I not worried though, I think I will find something to my liking :ytounge: :ytounge:

 

[puppetgirl121]

Worried no.....frantic maybe ......just used to low season when you have a choice of many at 1000 baht......don't like the thought of having to take a bg l am not overly keen on and pay 1500 baht.

 

[rjp3526]

I will be just doing what I normally do any other which is "I dont talk about money"... If you do this then you dont have to worry about paying 1500bt but you still might get stuck with one your not overly keen on for 1000bt...55555..

Personally I like low season. I have travelled to the LOS at high season and the 'crack' (no pun intended or implied!! ) is fantastic but I can find it a bit over-powering sometimes. Music totally cranked up to conversation killer levels, more debris in the streets and less of the 'happy' drunks like me around.

I like to wander around in low season and do my own thing and have never had a problem finding the dream girl I desire for the day or night (Yes, I do butterfly) I only need 14 girls on a two week stay anyway!! and there will always be plenty to go around. I'm not going to quibble over 500 Baht either, you can spend that on two hours parking at Heathrow!

Enjoy! There's 50 other weeks to be miserable in.
