Last day of the Fair

When are we going to the fair?

I've been avoiding answering that question for one obvious reason.  I'm expected to finance the venture.

The fair has lost a lot of luster for me over the years.  My primary reason to go to the fair was to ride the 'bum car' (bumper cars). They haven't been part of the fair for a number of years.
I'd easily spend thousands giving away tickets, and I'd nurse bruises and aches for weeks after the fair was gone.

This year they've also removed alcohol from the fair.  Open air bars and entertainment has been moved across the street, away from the fair.
Past years I'd sit in a car dealers booth, sip on a beer and watch people go by.  Gone are the karaoke bars

A good time to make purchases is early in the morning the day after the fair, when they load up all their unsold products


Local Straw Burning Ban Campaign Underway

A program is under way to educate farmers in more ecological methods to clear land for replanting, other than burning.    Burning rice and corn stubble is most commonly used in clearing farmland for replanting. www.banmuang.co.th
