    Pattaya To Hua Hin Ferry Proposals Discussed In Meeting

    in Pattaya News

    Posted · Edited by MJCM

    They should have done this long time ago. There are fast catamaran boats (Lomprayah) from Samui, via Koh Phangan and Koh Tao to Chumphon and it works although the distance is bigger than from Hua Hin to Pattaya.

    Yes indeed, but these are islands and thus need those boats for easy & cheap access. Pattaya and Hua Hin are easily served by Bus / Minibuses which I guess have a cheaper fare then a Ferry. And don't forget that Ferries are very dependable on the weather.

    It wouldn't surprise me one bit if he gets fined riding that bicycle back in the UK because he broke one of the too tall or the too flashy laws.

    Well he won't be accustomed to today's uk chats hurling abuse at him !

    That's indeed a greater concern !

    90 Day Reporting Jomtiem

    in Pattaya

    Posted · Edited by MJCM

    TimeKeeper is correct

    From Immigration Website.

    http://www.immigration.go.th/

    The foreigner makes the notification in person, or

    The foreigner authorises another person to make the notification, or

    The foreigner makes the notification by registered mail.

    The notification must be made within 15 days before or after 7 days the period of 90 days expires.

    The first application for extension of stay by the foreigner is equivalent to the notification of staying in the Kingdom over 90 days.

    New Surprise With This Year's Thai Wife Non-O Extension

    in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits

    Posted · Edited by MJCM

    I had to wait 2 months (applied 14th June) got a stamp which said must contact again on 10th Aug and when I went on that day it still wasn't there.

    I was told to come back a week later. Their excuse was that the Bangkok Office is very busy with all the paperwork they are getting and they have to check, so that's why the delay.

    Finally got my extension on 15th August. (Extension of stay is permitted up to 14th July 2013).

    Edit: // This was Pattaya / Jomtien Office

    90 Day Reporting Jomtiem

    in Pattaya

    I am not 100% sure (as I have heard in between 10 days and 14 days before and 7 days after) but just to be on the safe side make it 7 days before and 5 days after the deadline. And even if you can't make it just send your gf, wife, friend to do the reporting for you. !

    Does This Happen Often?

    in Pattaya

    Posted

    When we drive our Motobike somewhere (very seldom these days as we normal go by car) we always lock our helmet at the metal clip under the seat.

    I've had 2 cut away and stolen from there!

    This has not happened to us yet, but I agree if they want it they will get it no matter what you do.

    But maybe it's time for someone to come up with an idea for an Helmet with a Siren in case someone tries to steal it ;)

    Can I Delete? / Uninstall? The Following

    in IT and Computers

    Posted · Edited by MJCM

    I would not uninstall any .NET software. (Some will be security updates.) Some applications and games and for example ATI Video Drivers need this to function properly. And if you do uninstall it and you run in problems you will then again have to reinstall it. If you are running low on disk space, trying using a program like ccleaner: http://www.piriform.com/CCLEANER

    Edit: //

    Question was If you can remove version 2.0 and only keep version 3

    No, you can't. Several parts of 3.0/3.5 are not being replaced by new stuff but pulled from 2.0. Removing 2.0 can broke up 3.X installations as well. Moreover, the 3.X does not come with its very own runtime but uses the 2.0 runtime.

    So my guess is it would be the same for Version 1 and Version 2

    ^ If you need it, make sure you white list (allow) it only for the sites which you know are safe and for all other ones disable it.

    These pages can help

    Java 7 Zero-Day Security Hole Fixed

    in IT and Computers

    ^ Maybe you can Have a look at NotScripts for Chrome

    NotScripts gives you a high degree of "NoScript" like control over what javascript, iframes, and plugins runs in your browser to increase security and lower the CPU usage. It is useful to help mitigate some attacks like certain cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities and drive by downloads by blocking the third-party content before it even runs with it's default deny policy.

    You can whitelist the sites you want through an easy to use url bar icon and drop down menu.
