Pirate Press - Confessions of a massage addict

Ever since I landed in Thailand, I seem to have or maybe it is the other way round *chuckles* the massage shops seem to attract me.

*ahem* Before your mind drifts any further, I am talking about the clean ones OK! *kokz those with the naughty thoughts*

From previous trips and inclusive this one from Kanchanaburi, I seem to enjoy being 'tortured' (at certain extent, it does hurt when the massager exerts too much strength and I have to scream 'May Dai! May Dai') But somehow, the sleep that comes after is terrific. No need for whatsoever 'extras' I can sleep like a baby until daylight.

Comparing prices with other countries where I have gone through such massages, Thailand is the place to be. After all, after a long day of walking around/ cramped into a mini-van/ sitting on your bum for hours that seemed like days, the rub-down is called for.

Prices can range between 190 baht (8 SGD) to 330 baht (14 SGD) and it is probably the most cheapest you can get on earth... ermm... Apart for when your other partner rubs you down for free of course hehehe *grins*

There again, there is another school of massage not suitable to be discussed here. I will spare the ladies without having their imagination going wild. It is said that 'ignorance is bliss' (well, probably you all know, I know.... heart shine lah) *acts blurs*

Thus forth... a summary:

Don't go for pretty gals... especially for guys out there. They simply cannot make it or simply bo chap. The more prettier they are, the less interested they are in giving the rub-down.
The best ones are aunties. They will simply
- turn you off *hahaha*
- have more experience in massaging
- less interested in doing whatever not related to massaging
- guranteed service for the money.

So much for this edition. Lap Koon.
