Remembrance poppies 2020

Post by vincemunday » October 16, 2020, 10:27 pm

Dear All,

It's getting close to the time where we remember those who gave their lives in order that we could live ours. Once again I will be distributing collection boxes around Udon Thani and I'm looking for bars and shops who would be willing to make space for what is a very good cause.

As per every year the poppies will be available in the Tbar but it would be nice to have at least one spot in the centre of town, please contact me if you can help.

Thanks,

Vince. 0910575550

Poppy Appeal 2020

Dear all,

We are fast approaching remembrance day and I will be delivering the poppies and collection boxes off at the Tbar and the Fun Bar over the next day or two. Due to Covid 19 there isn't much by way of new stock but we have a few car poppies and two lapel/tie pins as per the pics.

Lest we forget.

It'll soon be the day where we remember those who gave their lives so that we could live ours. As per usual i'll be looking for bars and restaurants who will be willing to put the poppies out on their counters and bars.
I know these are trying times that are difficult for the bar and restaurant owners but please help if you can.
Please let me know if you can help below or call me on 0910575550

Thanks.

Dear All, having lost a couple of venues this year due to Covid etc the poppies are only available at the Fun Bar down Soi Sampan, thank you Bill. If anyone owns a bar or restaurant and can take a box I'd appreciate a call on 0910575550. Vince.

Again regular as clockwork , Vince happily trots out the Poppy Collections tins for us to donate in a small way to the Continuing assistance our small donations joined together with thousands around the world to assist in helkp veterans of all conflicts past and present, ,sadly those who survived WW 1 are now so rare they7 are almost national heros, but we still have thousands from WW 11 and those post 1945 to assist
I thankyou Vince for your continuing enterprise to remind us all to remember.

You're welcome Paul, we can't allow history to be dumbed down and our old soldiers to be forgotten.

The Gossip Bar is just a minute's walk from Steve and Mali's former enterprise and a family-run affair so you can get your poppy there.

We must never forget those brave Men and Women who gave their lives so that we could live ours.
