No bum guns in farang/western/hi so hotels?

[Lancelot]

On August 2011 I returned to the US for one year to help care for a sick parent.

What did I miss most from Thailand?

Som tom? Tom Yang Kung? Gawd no, I filled up on grain fed USDA Choice Steaks and baked Idaho potatos.

Go-go bars? Nah I was bored with pidgeon conversations such as "Excuse me, you holiday?"

Riding my motorbike? Again no, I was relieved to be spared head on collisions with idiots in my lane.

I missed the good old bum gun!

My first year in Thailand I refused to use one, thought it was gross. Then, one day there was no TP, so I manned up and did what I had to do...

Viola, I liked it and felt much more "clean"

Put me down as a supporting member of the bum gun brigade

why would anyone want to spray shit all over the place with one of those primitive bum guns? they are a dirty Asian device to be avoided.

I guess some of us are a bit more co-ordinated than you?

Yes.

You're supposed to still be at least somewhat seated when you start spraying.

Iam a big fan of the bum gun but would really love to lay some cable in one of those Hi-Tech Japanese dunnies.... any hotel in BKK have them ?

Bought one for my Condo at considerable expense. Prize possesion.

OMG don't tell me someone needs a lesson on how to use it?

Let me include siam bayshore at pattaya into the mix too. Yup and this is a very good hotel. It's huge and 5 stars no bum guns either.

Anybody stayed at grand president soi 11 sukh? Do you know if they have bum guns? I love the bum gun so if they don't have them I need to change hotels.

[snake24]

Btw i think when you are in thailand and stay in hotels without the bum guns pls be careful when you're using the shower especially those with the shower hoses you can take out and hold in your hand cos if they cannot extend to the toilet area you can be sure someone is washing his arse with it inside the shower area. Yup i did that in siam bayshore.

I hate bum guns. I really hate the bucket and dipper.

What am I supposed to do? Get up and pull my pants up with my dirty hand while the water runs down my leg and wets my clothes? Now, where's my own personal fingernail brush and some soap?

Geez, why not use TP and shower and change clothes a couple of times a day? Maybe there's a reason that TP is the standard in civilized countries. (I didn't say that France is civilized, haha.)

I'm a bumgun fan it's far more hygienic than TP,

Oh My !

If using a bum gun causes you to spray crap all over the place either

1- you were not done crapping yet or,

2- You might need more fiber in your diet

I had the misfortune to be in a Thai restaurant last night and suffered the worst of all worlds when I had an imperative urge.

It was a squat loo, and I can't squat.

No bum gun, only a plastic bowl and water.

No tp ( I always bring my own, but I put my bag in a puddle that I didn't notice in the dark, and it got soaked ).

No soap by the wash basins.

Luvverly.

Be a real Thai and use your hand.

[thaibeachlovers]

Be a real Thai and use your hand.

That's so nice when you go to eat after doing that, not.

[transam]

Think most foreigners think it's for a quick shower.

Centre Point it is.. came on this thread looking to see what hotels in BKK do have them. Mod, perhaps a pinned list of all hotels that have them??

I have heard that on Panthip dot com, the Thai version of Thai Visa, that his is always mentioned in all hotel reviews

Have emailed Silq and they do not have them. Just for the record.
