Description
Posing in front of the section of the guest house that was a bar. Bar at guest house was usually very quiet for most of every month, since bottle beer was quite rare in this place at that time. Near month's end a truck would make its way over very bad roads to bring a load of crates of beer, usually coinciding with payday for the government workers. The music, on a battery powered record player, and beer would flow 24 hours per day until the supply of beer was finished.
