MJ, Sorry if I wasn't clear - I realise there is a difference in the two, but in practice their are similarities, particularly when it comes to getting your hands on the forbidden fruit. I think the original q. alludes to closure/prohibition dates in general. Also noteworthy, I remember it was impossible to get cash from ATMs on HRH's b'day a year or two back - cash up.

FarangBha. yes you are probably right about the king's B/day. my experience was of Buddha's B/day,but i would have thought that was as high on the Thai's mind as the Kings. i have never been in thailand for his B/day. but i have almost met him,and have spoken to one of his daughters. story soon to come in my latest FR's. as for elections,i found on Phuket the situation was an alcohol ban 12 hours(at least) before the polls opened. wanted the locals to vote and not be too pissed up the night before. but again,i was offered alcohol after the ban started,as long as i was discreet. but i always found there was not a ban on selling alcohol,just that the police warned the bars it was unadvisable to sell alcohol and they complied.

Nok, Give that FR regarding HRH & offspring a catchy title, so i can spot it easy (dont get on board every day!) One bar owner told me that when it comes to elections, the cops actually have to serve notice - if they haven't served notice in person, the bar can sell. I guess they also pick up their monthly handouts at the same time!!

FB, I have that problem all the time. I sometimes misunderstand people's intended meaning and I think even more often people misunderstand mine. So we end up saying sorry for things we don't need to or else getting pissed off about things we shouldn't. Like you said: NFW!

Nok, Would the boys in brown ever do such a thing?? In this country?? ... they probably dont even ask, just expected. So, being an airport lounge kinda guy, does Nokna come from Nok (Bird) Na (Please/Face)?? Which would make you 'Birdface or 'Please Bird', or perhaps 'Bird Pleaser'????

it isnt even that the bars have to close, all they do is send out a letter and recommend to cooperate, and you better follow that recommendation, plus, you would loose all the feelings from your staff, especially if youre farang

it was funny on election day: the overwhelming majority of places didn't serve alcohol, but I went to a couples places that would serve rum and coke or whiskey and coke in plastic cups...even CM2 did that. at the door they said "no alcohol" but you just went to the bar and they would serve you in a plastic cup... and of course later on Grace was open and serving as usual... i have no idea whether the same will be the case on the King's Birthday. thais certainly hold their king in high regard so maybe it will be different than the election night...
