I have found a New track of the tip road that it emerges onto the Khok kieow – Non Si thong road. It passes this reservoir full of red water lillies.
It appears we are going to get another 7-Eleven bringing the number in town to four. The two current ones, the one at the new PTT station when it opens & this one ; which is currently being built opposite the hospital.
NOW OPEN
The New Big C is being built Adjacent to the Tile Center opposite Tesco Lotus ( The opposite side to the Thursday Market Site) . The House previously there has already been demolished & the land cleared.
Rumours are that it will be a double story building and Bangkok Bank will be moving there from its current location.
