-- Y'day., (05th.), after purchasing tkts. for the Beijing Acrobatics' Troupe -
30 aug. at 14. & 19.hrs. - HUAMARK Indoors' Stadium, (part of R'haeng. Uni. Complex.), tkt. info. from > Cavecreek | Products & Services. thaiticketmajor.com < - I found that I had some unexpected time on my hands, so how better than to employ it usefully?

1.- ALL SEASONS' PLACE -
- loc'n. & BTS.: Wireless rd., Phloen Chit, (E2.),;
- ETA. - ETD.: 12.05. - 13.15.hrs., approx.;
- Nothing To Report,(NTR.),; possibly the late a'noon./early evening - when the offices' crowds would be leaving - might be better? My earlier visit of some time back would indicate that.

2.- LOTUS TESCO - ON NUT -
- BTS.: On Nut, (E9.),;
- ETA.-ETD. - 13.45. - 14.30.hrs.;
- 1fl. hawng nahm was NTR.;
- GF. hawng nahm, for both times that I visited, had a not so young and tough working guy hanging around who was both looking and shewing. Both times I was invited to go into cubicle #8., offers I was able to refuse.

- Then back to BTS. Phra Kanong, (E7.), to pick-up the #133. 'bus. to take me to SEACON SQUARE -
- addr.: 904, Tnn. Srinakarin, Nongnon, Khet Prawet,
BKK. 10250.;
- loc'n.: Tnn. S'karin., (let's say approx. 4M. due WEST of S'BHUMI.INT'L. AIRPORT.),;
- Google Earth co-ords.: roughly 100-38-52.E.x13-41-40.N.;
- fare & journey's time: 08.Bh., 45mins.;
- ETA.-ETD.: 16.-17.15.hrs.;
- Basically SEACON SQ. is a v. large Shopping Mall with a Robinson's Dept. store and many smaller shops & stalls - the latter in what may be described as two & similar wings: two hanwg nahm on each floor in each wing;
- NTR.; although in one of the GF. hawn nahm - walk through R'son's. to the junction of the 2 wings, note an optical shop on your RHS., and in the hawng nahm roughly in from of you are 3 cubicles with spy-holes.

- Then to SERI CENTRE -
- loc'n.: to the SOUTH and further along Tnn. S'karin. towards the Bagna-Trad rd.;
- Google Earth co-ords.: roughly 100-38-51.E.x13-41-15.N.;
- ETA.-ETD.: 18.15.-19.oo.hrs.;
- NTR.; but several indications that possibly several yrs. ago its hawng nahms were busier than they were y'day.; inter-cubicle partitions come-DOWN to just a few inches above the floor.

-- Then to KING RAMA IX PARK -
- loc'n.: at end of Tnn. S'karin. soi 55.;
- Google Earth co-ords.: 100-39-44.E.x13-41-14.N.;
- approx. 15mins.walk along Soi 55, (taxi m/cs. outside the PK. for one's return journey.),;
- ETA.-ETD.: 19.30.-20.oo.hrs.;
- A v. large park; MORE family oriented than say LUMPINI PK. with both wimen & children using the various exercise machines; not so well illuminated as either LUMPINI and SARANROM PKS.; not many signs of Sec. Gds. on patrol;
- I'd say that one needs to arrive there during the hrs. of daylight so as to carry-out a thorough recce..

-- Then back to Tnn. S'karin. to pick-up the #133. 'bus. and back home;
- NB.: On its return journey to Cent'l. BKK. this 'bus. does not go to BTS. P. Kanong Stn. but turns LEFT to go along Tnn. Rama IV. - so jump OFF the 'bus. as soon as it's made its LEFT turn.

-- E&OE.. --
