Anyone remember this image I posted, outside the Banana Bar, back in August?

Your trip reports are made so often, and are so detailed, it’s difficult to remember them all
I spoke to Wirat last night.
Wirat used to run Solid and moved to the terrace next to Scorpian.
The only place on the soi to charge Baht 100 for a beer.
He has been told to vacate his terrace by this Friday (22nd).
He said "I'll have to find a job".
Whenever I saw him after the demise of Solid, he mourned its passing and bemoaned his present lot. Over the past few years his bar. had few hosts and, accordingly, few customers....but he always remembered me and greeted me cheerily.
No doubt the the unhappiness that he will soon be unemployed will be assuaged by the knowledge that some billionaires will be celebrating yet another assault on the well-being of ordinary citizens of Thailand.
By the way, Good Luck to the Redshirts.

Surely you exaggerate, Oliver. There was never any employment security in bar work. The bar boys have a short sell-by date and the waiters and captains move around, find sponsors, go back to the farm, etc. Bars open and close all the time.

I was making a political point about the elections. I'm more concerned about the poverty in the rural areas of Thailand than in Soi Twilight. And so yes, you're right, but I still hope that the ex-workers find suitable employment.
The poster or banner is still flying proud tonight although all the bars are closed on the eve of the election.
