Back in March I posted one of my favourite 'things to see' in Bangkok, the basket man. Here's the other one - we mentioned in the comments - the brush man.
I've said it before and I'll say it again...I just love these photos. They're so evocative and really do transport me right out of my little room here in cloudy London.
Hey JJ, to locals the Caribbean is everyday run-of-the-mill, not in the least exotic. Exotic to us is snow on the ground - and brush men! Never seen one of those here...
I moved with my family to Bangkok in July 2005. What do I do? I make hats and costumes; I’ve written articles, a novel and a non-fiction book is underway… I've held a variety of volunteer positions within the expat community.
Tea stains is where I write and illustrate the things that consume me: life in Thailand, shop windows, books, cats, making, hats, fascinators, tea and the colour orange.

Love it! Great to get a glimpse into your life over there.
Wow, that really is a brush for every occasion. (Jen! Behave!)
And now I have brush envy! :) Also in Carol's comment - 'fish on a stick' man????
I wish I lived near you.

Ooh, lovely! Utterly exotic!
Love the photo. I could do with a couple of brushes, do you think he'll come my way sometime?
Oh Carol, next time I see 'fish on a stick man' I'll shoot a snap for you!
Jen, you're so naughty.
Yvonne, there were three in a row there. I think they'd stopped for lunch. A convention.
Zinnia, absolutely.
Caroline, fish on a stick man is indeed a sight to behold. Little goldfish in bags hanging on a broom. Obviously.
SueG, thank you. I'll keep posting.
Wordtryst, you say that from Trinidad? Ha ha ha.
Debs, I could ask him, but I wouldn't hold your breath.
