I wish!

That said, I betchya a lot of condos got rented out for a month over Christmas and New Year.....

Do you get a 'Holier than thou' T-Shirt for idiotically standing out in the sun for ages? When they started keeping people out of the building, and one day I saw a long line down soi 5, I changed my ways. Stamp looks the same!

A Princess in hospital, unconscious I believe... where have you been hiding?

Nobody wants to go there except border bouncers....

I also do Spanish and punctuation classes, you should too!

I was doing a job a bit east of there, Pittsburg without the 'H'.. long time ago now.....(Bayview?)

You are forgiven... but your ignorance goes further. Malaysians get up early to pray, so like to retire early.....Indians and Russians can't afford to stay out late in clubs!

You appear just to want to argue but making points I already spoke of... I will humour you a little. Firstly don't be sorry... we were discussing what an agency Extension required relative to going to immigration and doing it yourself... The instruction was, bring a passport photo if you have one, the shop is quite capable of producing one.. I keep a few with my passport... so that photo to go with the application I supplied. . They do take a pic in the shop anyhow, which means there is no need to go to immigration later I told you I did not fill out a TM7... did you miss that!? Nor did I read one. I saved more than a minute, I didn't even have a blank one! Read this again, perhaps twice.

I think you hit the nail on the head wrt many of the local markets... horrible, unclean, smelly and sweltering. Big-C isn't!

I expect it will strengthen a bit more after the break.

Like Mike Tyson.... NO.... wouldn't dream of it!

Not doing too well though is it?

Well not really 'eventually' either.....that poster is claiming heart failure which is presumptive. Many possibilities, but I lean away from natural causes from what I read here... I hope we get to find out the underlying cause.

No, you failed to read properly. I got the bank letter, yes, and I updated the passbook while at the bank. The agent took the copies. I happened to have a passport photo and they took it, but it was not a requirement. I did not have to fill in the TM7, nor supply the numerous passport and signed copies, no requirement of chanote or residence proof, like a utility bill. No TM 30 proof (always worried about that). But in reality, I simply wanted to avoid going to immigration and standing in line and getting irritated and hot.

Probably cannot afford to live in SF proper, but there were a lot more just over the bridge in Berkely and points East.

I suspect you are correct. Complaints from other countries have so far generated little concern.

Yes....

Yes sounds like my experience.... stopped off at the bank and got the letter and update on the book.....straight to the agent and they copied the bankbook, took a photo, I gave them the bank letter and a photo I happened to have, paid the fee, and that was it.....oh they wanted my phone number as they called me the following afternoon to say passport ready for collection. Easy

Cardiac arrest is usual with people who die!

Hardly, in fact a ridiculous statement, Tattoos are still the mark of criminal gangs, very much in Latin American ones....

Even shootings in the UK over Christmas....

There have been a lot of associations with criminal and criminal gangs who were marked or liked to adorn themselves with tattoos throughout history....from the criminals being transported from Britain to Australia, the Yakuza in Japan, Hell's Angels and of course American gangs. I am surprised you find it ridiculous.....it's not all about drunken sailors doing a jig.

Soi Potholes is in the midst of a change.... even MPs are being replaced by bars.

Loads of them..... https://goo.gl/maps/qAU4WE83PyRDHqkk6 ????
