Khun Pong,
- Thanks for yr. corr'ns.
etc. etc. - appreciated by all of us, I'm sure.
1.- My
BKK. City Atlas., (5th.. edn.), makes
no mention of a road named SAPAN MAI; but it does shew a SM. Post Office, wch. is between Tnn. Phahon Yothin sois 48. & 50., and also a projected rd. running-away to the EbyS. in that area.
- The a/m.
Atlas shews the BIG C - SM. to be on Phahon Yothin soi 50..
- Tnn. PY. runs in a NE./SW. dir'n. on the E. side of DON MUEANG AIRPORT.
2.- I asked my Thai boi-friend, (his English is ltd!), to translate the rds'.
etc. names for
GURU. -
2.1.- At the point where Tnn. Chaeng Wattana changes name to Tnn. Ratchapruek there is a fly-over with Tnn. Tiwanon*, (T'non. changes dir'n. from NW./SE. to NE./SW. at that point.),;
2.1.1.* -
Google Earth co-ords.: roughly 100-30-15.E.x13-54-27.N.;
2.2- From the a/m. i'sect. proceed NE. along Tnn. T'non., (distance neither given nor known.), until on yr.
RHS. you'll see HOT VIDEO SHOP and, across the soi, BANG MANG SA,(?);
2.3.- Turn
RIGHT and walk along that soi and there'll be
GURU at the end.
-- My copy of the
BKK. 'BUS. MAP. , (version E5.), shews 'buses.

505. go as far as the a/m. i'sect., (
