  1. On a side note.... I entered Thailand in early July and my wife went to Nonthaburi IO and did the silly TM30 thing. I left Thailand mid July and returned late July, and it was inconvenient for her to rush to do TM30 so she called them. They told her, no problem because it's the same house, and I have the slip of paper. But she SWEARS BLIND that they told her I have to do the TM47 (90 day) within 90 days from my entry in EARLY July, which is stupid. Has anyone else heard of this? At the end of the day I will either do it on line some time in October, or just go for another little trip.
  2. "It is unclear how much time Thaksin will eventually spend in jail, as he is eligible for detention outside prison, including house arrest, according to a source in the Department of Corrections." This says it all, to me!
  3. Yes, but Somyot Pruksakasemsuk, an activist and magazine editor, doesn't have the same financial influence as Uncle Tony.
  4. Not sure Google can see inside these places, nor the cash exchanges to facilitate special treatment. Thailand was Thailand before Google existed.
  5. The first 5 nights are in covid quarantine (yes, that appears to still be a thing!) After that I expect he will get a nice private cell. When things die down I predict he will be secretly removed from the prison altogether.
  6. 🫣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
  7. Apparently landed in Singapore. Will be interesting if he comes back, and more interesting to see the result of the court case this afternoon.
  8. None of us were there, but I guess we can presume that Wayne was trying to explain to Kim Jung Kung Fu that speaking loudly doesn't work here. Then King Jung Kung Fu's idiot switch flicks into overdrive. Send him to Pyongyang for a proper lesson in behaviour!
  9. The clan brought some good things, which we cant deny. But now, the younger generation have seen trhe light' and we can only hope that the dinosaurs either let democracy follow its course, or die trying to stop it.
  10. Dig=sgusting person. When was the last time we had a serving PM who was already a knighted sir? Almost as bad at that 'wanna be black' F1 driver
  11. The trouble is that as far right these countries are, the 'civilised nations' are too far the other way!
  12. I wonder if Suresh was checking that it WAS a cheezer, in the hope of getting some fun. Or if it was a lady. If she has an apple, she has a banana!
  13. Thaksin has promised to come back in time, but will he? "I'm flying to Hua Hin" = 😏 "I'm flying to Singapore" = 😏
  14. Ha ha! Of COURSE not. But apparently the new online safety regulations' or whatever they're called require people in the UK to provide proof of age to access adult content websites.
  15. Travelling through several countries to seek asylum is not seeking asylum. It's with the specific goal of getting to the UK. 'Asylum' is the nearest safe country. Isn't it amazing that now in the UK you need to provide your passport to watch porn, but you don't need one to enter the country!
  16. There will be a coup over the weekend, or early next week!
  17. Ask the landlord for refunds? Ha ha! Like that'll happen!
  18. Google "Canelo Dogtopia." I would love to make something like that in Thailand!
  19. My Jazz is 19 years old and came with a full alloy spare, that lives in the boot. Oh the good ol' days!
  20. Looks like 'buy one, get one' so 34.50B each
  21. Come on Charlie, the Express is hardly a reliable source of anything factual.
  22. Charlie, As someone else has already pointed out this is a very new member (or someone on a second or third fake account) asking a question that has probably been asked 100s of times on here. Can we just close the thread?
  23. On WHICH topic? You and Fred bitching at each other, or the topic of the driving incident, which is the title of the thread.
  24. If you're doing 10kmh / 6mph with this view, then there's no chance of an accident. Taking into account the pedestrians, you should be focusing on their actions and safety.
