Update ...
 

-- Today, 27 jul., evening I was joined by a 37YO. & Thai acquaintance - whom one might see on Si Lom rd. distributing fliers/hand-outs for FAN CLUB MASSAGE - we have known eachother for maybe ten yrs. or so - who ret'd. to my appt. for a shower;
- Chatting afterwards I enquired how business is in that particular Massage-parlor?
- Reportedly, on an average day, there are 20+ masseurs there and possibly six to eight customers who come-in and who are mostly farangs;

-- Obviously not all that busy, wch. ties-in with my own obsvns., walking-around BANG RAK, and noting the numbers of masseurs sitting outside their parlours awaiting customers, and the majority of whom are smoking - obviously time weighs heavily on their hands.
