Vintage_Kwai Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Interesting map, SD. The Jusco at km 5 ramintra hasn't been there for a couple of years now. Wat Prasri at Laksi circle as a landmark I can understand, but Wat Amorn Waram is pretty far off the beaten track. I used to like 'Yes Indeed' on Kaset Navamin, have other preferences these days. Lots of new places around the area. A little surprised to see it on your map... Interesting, indeed. Cheers, VK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drogon Posted August 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 Thx SD, would really like to see a ki 36 did not know there was one left. The corsair you are talking about, is it the corsair of WW2 or is it a corsair (mark I or II) from the eighties? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
