Poppy for Remembrance Day

[Banana7]

Does anyone know where one can obtain a wearable poppy for Remembrance Day?

[Upnotover]

Maybe they have some left at the Queen Vic?

Retox, Soi Honey, will probably still have them.

The "British Legion" branch (aka The Tropical Bar) on Soi Kha Noi usually has some. (Brit style though, not as nice as the Canadian ones.)

Note that there probably isn't any planned services anywhere in the area. There may be something near an Embassy in Bangkok but I wouldn't count on it.

That bar usually organizes a trip to Kanchanaburi (to the River Kwai Bridge and Hellfire Pass) for Remembrance Day but they have limited capacity (and Brits get first priority).

Siamburi's at the top of Soi Khao Talo is affiliated with the Royal British Legion and has a collection box and poppies. I get mine there every year.

Thai veterans day is in February and many shops have donation boxes with poppies out then

Witherspoons soi buakhao had some a couple of weeks ago.

Lots of bars on the dark side have them. Many have the enamel brooches and COVID face masks too.

As recommended, I got mine at Queen Vic today. Box just inside the front door. So many beautiful ladies on that Soi 6, I barely escaped with my life, almost had a heart attack, my heart was pounding so hard.

Seems you were thinking about inside their box then.

With all those beauties on Soi 6, Oh man, I wasn't thinking very much. Most of my blood was gone from my brain to a lower part of my body, and I could barely walk, I was so stiff.

 

Go get a poppy on Soi 6 and celebrate Remembrance Day!
