-- Y'day., (18th.), I went thither & ret'd. by #522. 'bus. from VICTORY MONUMENT.
- Both before setting-out and on returning I looked-in at the nearby hawng nahm - I could have saved my 04.Bh.. :(

-- On 18th., following Khun Holsteiner's useful dir'ns. I went thither.

-- From the NW. quadrant around VICTORY MONUMENT, (BTS. N3.], I took an orange-colored & air-cond. 'bus. #522..
- OUTbound journey's time & fare: approx. 2Omins. & 18Bh., (thus, thanks to the toll-way it's not too far away.].
- THE MALL is the bus's. 2nd. OUTbound stop; the 'bus. stops a couple of hundred yds. short of THE MALL, wch. is clearly visible to one's half-RIGHT on the INbound carriage-way. where the vehicular fly-over starts/ends and by a pedestrian over-bridge.

-- However, before gaining the pedestrian over-bridge there is GRAND PLAZA., (in name, at least!], on one's LHS..
- There are hawng nahms on both floors; in the 1fl., (US. 2fl.], HN., (nr. to the Food Ct.], there is a large spy-hole between cubicles #2. & #3.; however, as the partitions are made of some sort of polystyrene mat'l. sandwiched between two thin sheets of aluminium it might not be wise to intro. anything through it AYOR! :eek:
- On my return visit thither at around 17.3O.hrs. all 3 HN. were occupied; I waited for five mins. and decided that enough was enough.

-- Following-up on Khun Holsteiner's visit to THE MALL - NGAM WONGWAN here are a few of my initial thoughts -
- addr.: 3/39-50, moo 2., Tnn. Ngam Wongwan,
Bang Khen, Nonthaburi, 11000.;
- co-ords.: roughly 100-32-32.E.x13-51-19.N.;
--Hawng nahm on most floors - many of wch. have small shelves in the cubicles;
- On 6fl. there are two HN.:
-- facing the Box Office 1st. is to one's LHS. along a small passage flanked by outlets for 'Police.' & for 'Pkplaza.com.';
-- Look for Mangpong DVD. shop - quite a large outlet - and follow the previous dir'ns.;
- I found the former to be busier & MORE cruisy than the 2nd. one wch. had a certain amt. of janitoral activity therein;
-- Only once did I see any official looking Sec. Gds.: 1 man & 2 women dressed in lt. tan shirts over chocolate trousers; but one should keep one's eyes OPEN for men dressed in dk. blue jkts. over dk. bl. trousers and holding the usual & dull red colored walkie-talkies!

Saranrom park ...
 

-- Y'day., (25th.), evening - having walked-around in the gen'l. area of WAT PO, the GRAND PALACE and the MIN. OF DEFENCE - and observed the INCREASED presence of BKK's. Finest, (mostly engaged in directing the rd. tfc.), and the mil'y., (many wearing bulky & anti-riot gear.), - I walked to SARANROM PK., arriving there at approx. 18.55.hrs..
- The usual nos. of people jogging, working-out and doing ballroom dancing etc. etc..
- I sat-down on one of my usual benches and during the next hr. or so was approached by four men: the first was Khun Champa, whom I met on my prvious visit, while the others were younger & MORE obviously money-boyz; I was able to decline their kind offers with little effort.
- I was interested to see that one of them - the best looking one of the lot - declined the approaches of a youngish & plumper looking man but eventually went-off with an elderly man who looked like the avg. peasant and/or rice-farmer: elderly & stoop-shouldered; tanned & wrinkled face; dressed in a while singlet over dk. blue shorts and wearing sandals.
- For the first time I saw one of the para-mil'y. park-gds. walking-around & oviously on patrol as he was using his torch, (US.: flaslight.), for add'n. illumination - particularly in the space used by those working-out with gym.-eqpt..
- I left at around 20.3o.hrs. and took a #1. 'bus., (whose young conductor - in his lt. bl. shirt over tightish & dk. bl. trousers - had possibilities? Or so I thought.), back to Cent'l. BKK..

The mall - ngam wongwan ...
 

--A few obsv'ns. about this Mall, (based upon my one-time visit thither.) -
1.- Avoid the hawng nahm on the 5fl.; an elderly & garulous Sec. Gd. insisted on escorting me in, stayed at the wash-basins, (I was standing next to a piece of eye-candy!), escorted me out and then tried to strike-up a conversation in broken English - along the all too usual & familiar lines.
2.- MORE profitable might be the 2 HN.on the 7fl.:
- 2.1.- Facing the Snacks' Bar -
-- 2.1.1.- To one's LEFT, walk around & look-for the usual int'l. signage on the wall & follow; appears to be completely unused! Each urinal has a tgt. adhered to it! (Reminds me of a notice posted in an Aussie. Public Convenience: 'We aim to please; you aim, too, please!),;
-- 2.1.2.- To one's RIGHT, look-for the MIFA. outlet/shop, pick-up the usual int'l. signage & follow. A busier HN..

-- Y'day., (O1st. apr.], and having completed my other business I looked-in at TESCO-LOTUS - ON NUT, (BTS. E9.].;
- ETA.: approx. 15.3O.hrs.;
- Far from busy, such other cruisers as there were appeared to be in the possibly 4O+. age range; no eye-candy and/or twinks seen.

-- Then, as it wasn't really out of my way, I dropped-in to BIG C. - R'DAMRI.;
- ETA.: roughly 18.15.hrs.;
- In the 5fl. hawng nahm a gp. of twinks entered, to be followed a few moments later by the usual Sec. Gd. in his dk. bl. jkt. & trous.. So no point in my prolonging my stay at the hand-wash basins.
- Otherwise nothing to report. :(

-- Today, (08th.), a'noon., having failed to find what I wanted in HOME PRO., (BTS. Ploen Chit, [E2.],), I went-out to TESCO-LOTUS. by BTS. On Nut, (E9.),.
- As expected, possibly because of the gen'l. closures in the R'PRASONG. I'SECT. area, (?), it was quite busy.
- GF. hawng nahm became busy, with several young men who, although not eye-candy, were well-worth second glances, around 18.oo.hrs..
- In the GF. hawng nahm there is a v. small spy-hole between cubicles #7. & #8..

- Today, (22nd.), went to TESCO-LOTUS - ON NUT, (BTS.E9.), to do some economical shopping;
- ETA.: 15.15.hrs.;
- Not many shoppers seen; hawng nahms equally empty; however, around 17.30.hrs. life in the GF. HN. picked-up - but MORE looking than shewing. A certain amt. of looking-over the cubicles' partitions.
-- I noticed that the janitress spent a fair amt. of time just standing & looking-at those relieving themselves.

-- To make a small break I walked to & from AMWAY - S'vit. 83.; neither HN. was busy.

-- Y'day., (13th.), and to make a break for myself from the Silom area I went to IMPERIALWORLD & to the STATE CINEMA at SAM RONG; BTS. to ON NUT, (E9.), and 'bus. thence.
- ETA. at IMP'L. WORLD was around 14.hrs.;
- No activity seen in the most popular hawng nahm in the b'ment., maybe I had arr'd. too late.

-- STATE CINEMA:
- Adm'n. still 50.Bh.;
- Videos shewn were all either lesbian or ortho-sexual & hard porn.;
- Ambient lighting at a v. LOW level, a small hand-torch, (flash-light.), would have been useful until my eyes had adjusted themselves to the gen'l. gloom;
- Not all that many spectators; v. spasmodic activity amongst them: mostly smoking, although I did see one penetration, (without a Condom, as far as I could judge.),.

-- Back to IMP'L. WORLD, again no activity, the occupants in the b'ment. HN. seemed to be glued to their seats!

-- I looked-in at LOTUS TESCO - On Nut; but that, too wasn't at all busy in either HN..

-- Y'day., (O9th.], evening I walked-around by the MIN. OF DEFENCE before entering SARANROM PARK; arr'd. there around 19.3O.hrs..
- Add'n. & flour. lighting has been rigged-up in the popular sitting-out area.
- Also the Park's Sec. Gds. now have an electrc & silent scooter on wch. one of them rides around keeping an eye OPEN on things.

-- Various older & Thai cruisers seen, none of whom was of any interest to me.
- Also a mature farang chatting with a Thai man; after a while they both left to gether.

-- After a while - and quite by chance, as one writes - I followed and met-up with Khun Dee, 2OYO. student who exercises most days in that Park. But as he seemed to be rather shy I did not push-ahead with matters too quickly. We both agreed to meet again at some other time - so we shall see.

Ahhhh what's this.... Not cruising for sex by any chance! Oh thats right this is CFS.com!

By the way should that be 'flour', 'flower', 'floor' or may be 'fluro'!

Thanx Sxytile for getting us back on THE topick!

-- My abbreviation for FLOURESCENT. :D

No kiddin'.

Aw shucks just havin' a bit o' fun.

Keep up the cruisin' 4 dik!

TST

Is that the same as "fluroescent"?

-- Today, (17th.), having business in Sukhumvit 75/1. - checking-out the OASIS REST'T. - I dropped-in eventually to LOTUS TESCO. - BTS. ON NUT, (E9.),;
- ETA. 15.30.hrs. - no activity in either hawng nahm;
- What activity there was peaked around 17.30.hrs.; I noticed that in the GF. HN. cubicle #8. was popular - twice, while I was there, couples made use of it. When it was vacant I went-in and saw that there is no longer a small spy-hole between cubicles #7. & 8..
- A couple of Thai & familiar faces from elsewhere were seen there, too.
