Wat Ket Clean Up March/promotion

[mamborobert]

Just had another "TIT" experience in Wat Ket.

Sitting down having a yack with friends when 4 police bike riders turn into street, stop, dismount and start directing traffic.

Shortly afterwards I have 80 plus black shirted tessabahn staff (a lot of which I have seen in another coloured shirt in the past) stopping at various households/shops and having a chin wag (for quite some time at some homes and shops). Piles outside phoning, texting, chatting. Came wifey's way asked her to sign a petition which she duly did (after all they did give her 8 large green garbage bags before she signs, wifey has integrity, when she is bought she stays bought).

Its kinda sad on many levels.......

Every now and again there would be frantic hand signals and an elderly lady with a camera would be called to photograph and "untidy" area or where a vacant property had junk out the front.

Half an hour later the circus moves on further down the street to San Pakoy markets where I have no doubt they will get a rousing reception given that from my regular trips there they still hunger for the good old days of Mr T.

Maybe I'm down for gentrification

Hope I get to stay
