that's for conversion to 90-day non-immigrant O visa, not one-year extension of permission to stay. "irregardless" of what your think, they're not the same. end of.

being a whiny bi-atch falls quite nicely under that clause. immi should involve it more often ????

thankfully we're not in farang land anymore and nobody seems to care about proppa English here. I think it's kinda cute that the Thais don't give a stuff.

wow they have heffalumps on the darkside, who knew? thanks for sharing, I never get past Soi Buakhao when I visit Patts.

ser, I'm all in favour of digital payment systems and am quite glad that Thais are keen to embrace the new technology. anything that annoys grumpy old farang gets a thumbs up from me ???? ps. present company excluded, we're all happy souls in here ????

maybe the geezer in Tesco's thought you were paying with a QR code ????

I'm waiting for him to start flogging his new book ... Private Dancer II ????

it's too complicated a subject to be reduced to "Crypto is bad mmkay?" hence my one-word responses of late. as for Buffet and Munger, I'm not convinced that they don't understand the nature of crypto/Bitcoin. imho they know exactly what it is and how big of a threat it is to the system they've been supporting for so many years and are so heavily invested in. ps. Buffet gets feted as this wonderful investor. but am I right in thinking that all he does is pick stock in already established companies? he doesn't actually do anything useful like build a new solar power plant in the Texas desert or provide clean water to Africa, right?

everybody's gotta eat.

only wrong if you get caught. TIT.

get your hand off it ????

only because they haven't reached critical mass here...

ser your English is fine. any native speaker with half a brain understands exactly what you're asking. sorry but I'm not on Samui so can't help you with your search. but you could always try just turning up and pretending you're a guest, that works sometimes.

ser I think you misunderstood what I wrote. I wasn't the one calling the habitual report dodger a dill. I'm happy with whatever method anyone uses if it keeps them happy. when those guys who keep 800k festering in a Thai bank account for 35+ years instead of buying Apple stock ????

I've used their products a few times so I'm not totally ignorant like a lot of Android fanbois. I'm also a fan of the durian's smell but not its taste so that might help to explain my aversion ????

so that's what all the wailing was last night that I heard from my condo. Liverpool players crying themselves to sleep at the St Regis ????

sure, but 5k is chump change to some people. not me, at least not until the markets pick up ???? doesn't make you a dill ie. stupid for paying such a fine if you CNBF doing all the reporting stuff. just give the "visa renewal" fee and the fine to your agent when she comes to pick up your passport at your condo once a year ????

rules here are made to be broken or circumvented. it's the national pastime. why mess around with all that buearacracy (sp?) when you can pay a couple grand to make it go away?

2k baht is nothing to some people. easier to put your hand in your pocket and pull out a couple greys instead of having to mess around with setting up a new account etc. not to mention the printing of the little confirmation slip and keeping it in your PP. some people ain't got no time fo' dat, doesn't make 'em dills cobber.

and all of what you said is negated by their refusal to repair your machine for free despite having billions of dollars in cash reserves. ps. I'm not a Wintel fanboi and I hate Apple with a passion but I'm not wrong ????

sorry, not convinced. Apple products are the work of the Devil ????

what's so hard to understand? cheque is old tech and expensive to process. bank is not a charity.

for takeaway yes you do...get a life ????
