There used to be a ThaiVisa bar just off lower Sukhumvit, and there were regular meet-ups.  

That bar ("Thaivisa Lounge") was the second iteration of the infamous New Wave, Soi 7, after the land on the corner was sold to be redeveloped and was owned by the successful 'Frenchman', 'Patrick', it was not owned by Thaivisa.   Thaivisa put a bit of money in it and used it temporarily, putting their name on the alley side of New Wave's frontage.

People who aren't anti social and like having male friends perhaps

 

So that would exclude Lou then

You got something right, for once!   I'd qualify it, though, by adding that I'm selectively (anti) social.

I sighted the GOM a few times sitting in his favourite seat hogging the newspaper (the one that cannot be named).

No, that can't be the one, he used to read The Bangkok Post.

"You were on your way to the beer garden...".

Dreadful, dreadful place, would never drink there.  It's only saving grace was the pork chops and mashed spuds on a couple of very hungry occasions and then a rapid dart out back to New Wave.

Has anyone ever tried to set up a meet up for expats living in BKK.

 

Next question how many would be interested in meeting for a coffee. Or....

If you have a topic of discussion (or not)
you can try using meetup.com 
if you have a friend or two just start meeting at a regular spot that others are welcome to join

The only way an AN meeting place could work would require a boxing ring and gloves ....

choose your AN member and then go for it ....   

 

I remember you having the avatar of prayut. so, you obviously are not a friend of foreigners. Also you keep posting about how much you don't want to meet up with anyone.

One goes: I'd rather have a beer with rats...

did you stop and think that maybe they wouldnt be interested in having a beer with YOU?

[G_Money]

No thanks!  Enough nutters on the Thai forums.

 

No desire to meet them in the flesh.

Once? Actually, I base all my comments on facts and not opinions, so that leaves no room for a reply .

I've meet up with one of the moderators here at my house who helped me with a little project in his line of knowledge (only cost me a couple of beers and we got on well).  I think there's a lot of folks here who share similar ideals. Though, having a specific party and trying to get a bunch of socialist, communist, terrorist, democrats, conservatives or republicans together is probably not a good idea.

It was a glorious den of iniquity back in the early noughties with freaks of all genders prancing around and holding court.

 

A fallen gem.
