[QUOTE=Espada;13639497]Sorry, maybe I very tired already at night (I watched 9 pm show) and cannot see the price on the ticket yesterday even after looking at it because didn't have eyeglasses on. Now, after I wake up, I check again and it states 25k. So its cheap... only S$2.50!!! My bad....

Yes, the tickets are cheap. I got a shock when I read your previous post. hahahaha.

Depend on how much you want to give her?

1)She lives in Kost, bery cheap. Take her as part time girl friend. pay for her room n some pocket money. 250 sing dollar will do.

2) You give her a house, some money to live on, she does all her house keeping, wait for you to come every weekend/holidays to fuck n go out for dinner. 600 is enough... rental about 100 plus.

Option 1, she works n sleep with others.
Option 2, chances she stray are lower.

If i remember correctly..

Blue: Jodoh-Nagoya-Batam Center-Punggol
Pink: Jodoh-Nagoya-Batam Center-Nongsa
Red: Utama-Jodoh-Batam Center-Batu Aji
Yellow: Harbour Bay-Bengkong-Batam Center-Kepri mall
Green: ?????

Only Blue/Pink/Red Vans coming from Batam Center passby BCS, from Jodoh to Batam Center they will skip BCS..

Big Blue Bus: Big buses (old and new-aircon+music buses) taken from both Nagoya and Batam Center goes to Sekupang (Outside Sekupang International Ferry Terminal)

This used to cost 4k nett, heard recently increased to 8k nett. (Not confirmed)

Reason that i take ojek/taxi in the afternoon its because of the hot weather.

Wow this cheongster must be orang asli of Btm, take local transport.

A trivia : if one owns a BCA credit card. Every weekend(weekend only) - use the credit card to buy 1 ticket get 1 ticket free. Cannot buy more. Means can use this privilege 4 times a month . Only at Nagoya mall cinema. That works out to S$1.25.. LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

Same for me too. I called them the semi-SYT. Somewhere along the line between becoming a middle age (less than 30) but still have the look and figure of an SYT. Most of such has some good level of service standard base on their experience (they know what man wants and how to let man knows what they want),hehehe...in general,SSYT are young,some even very young and pretty.

Most young people dont exactly know how to think right at certain age...wilful,naughty,stubborn,being direct and seeking fun etc. Sounds familiar?

Sorry bro,you should try reading the most recent FR on Altalanta Spa. Most says it isnt up to expectation in terms of massage,facilities and services as compared to your regular Delta Spa. It was "HAZY" from the inside with dirty milky water in hot pool too (according to reviews by others except me).

As for pricing,i believe it has been asked and answered many times before. If you are truly keen on answers,my signature links has the answers to your questions answered no lesser than twice as i have visited this place and have it recorded in my summaries. In case you havent already realise,the questions you prompted were answered just a few posts away from where your question is (which is on the same page of your post i quoted above).

https://sammyboyforum.org.nz/showth...6#post13618066

Hopefully you will try to find answers by flipping the pages in future.
(in your case stated above,there was no need for flipping,your questions and the answers you look for were on the same page of the link above)

Hoping for your understanding.

Only one needs to thank me,the other i dont think so,hehehe...

Yes,i agree quoting the whole post is not good. If one REALLY need to quote the post,they have 2 options today.

a. They can copy the whole link from the browser and paste it like this below : eg. if i wish to quote your whole post I just :

b. Alternatively,they can also use the Hide code button to hide the whole quoted post,below is my post for all to reference how to use the Hide Code Button :

Just an alternate solution.

Side notes to no one :

From one of the very old time story,Journey to the West,the Monkey God character in it complained for 500 years after being "put down" at the bottom of the Five-finger mountains by Buddha,that HOW is he going to repent when nobody shows him the "right path" to take? "No one teaches me!!" he shouted during his entrapment.

The Monkey God was released 500 years later by a mortal monk who later becomes his teacher and in his journey to the west finally learned to be more patient and humbly listen when someone showed him the "path". And it is in his journey (thru experience) that teaches him how to gauge which is the "correct path" to take whenever he was caught in a cross road junction (thats when many people or situation shows him different paths). It is his own action and decision that finally leads him to the paths he is destined to walk.

Just a thought...

Ohh.. So driver commission is the reason behind the populated crowd at this place. No wonder i try book a slot in the afternoon and was told the earliest slot will be at 9pm

Popular? Thrice i walk in to this place during noontime around 2pm+ and it was practically empty except for a small handful of customers. I sit at the reception for nearly an hour waiting for my friends to finish their massage and there was not a single walk-in.

Maybe becos you were there on weekends and i was there during weekdays.

I find them better than Indo Thai and cheaper. Havent try Sports Massage so i cannot make comparison. My friend compare it against Spa Secret and says Spa Secret is a little better.

Sports is definitely clean. The curtains are never fully closed. Not allowed. The massage is professionally done, and usually I tip the gals for the hard work they put in.

Can be rather full during weekends.

Another of such good ones is hotel 89. Can be very full when tour groups go for massage too. Those residing in the hotel.

Thats the reason why till today,i am still so reluctant to visit Sports Massage. Too clean and no chance to turn it unclean....

Noted on Hotel 89....is the concept like Sports Massage? (no tightly closed curtain?)
