Yes. Look at the link structure. Easy to recognise, easily parsed.

But for either, my opinion is who cares.

Email harvesting for your domain is easy enough, just by bruting the user names and waiting for delivered OK messages...so I wouldn't worry too much about wasting time on the issue.

Put the money in trust with specific instructions for what the money is for, how it is to be released and to whom.

You'll need a lawyer to arrange the trust anyway, so you can have your questions answered at the same time.

I asked the wife's niece how many CM's in 1 meter yesterday, she had no idea, she's 17!!!

Funniest part is she's 3rd in her class out of 15 - lol.

Obviously being Thai she does not care that she does not know this....

What do they teach them in school here, anything useful?

So did you explain it to her or what? Just said 100?

Ones that astounded me.......

Is the Moon the same in the Uk

You gotta wonder do they play dumb or are they actually that thick, some might argue neither, they are that clever....hahaha

Serious face palm moment for you:

the moon appears different depending on where you are viewing it from!

You have your FTP and mySQL details right?

And a DB backup?

I seem to remember some people here have reported their spouse has been granted home fees after one year of being in the UK (I could be misremembering). If so, I'm not sure why.

It used to be 1 year but was changed to three a few (2? 3?) years ago, I believe.

Thanks 7.

Not as funny as Faux News proudly proclaiming Obama Bin Laden is finally dead!

To qualify for home fees for an FE course, your wife - on the first day of the first academic year - must:

Be settled in the UK; and

Been ordinarily resident for 3 years.

Have a read of http://www.ukcisa.org.uk/student/info_sheets/tuition_fees_e_fe.php and the rest of the website for further details.

I'm suprised the college is asking you about her status - it is their job to determine which fees to charge!

Edit to add:

As I understand it, general and family visitors are barred from studying, whether state or privately funded.

Or is that just adult visitors?

Tourist or visitor visas are just that. A visa issued for a holiday or to see family.

Generally speaking they do not allow access to any state funded facility. Enrolling a child in a school suggests long term plans outside the scope of the visa.

Perhaps it is worth mentioning that although visa's are issued with a six month validity it makes a lot more sense in cases like this to just ask for a couple of months in the application.

As I understand it, general and family visitors are barred from studying, whether state or privately funded.

Or is that just adult visitors?

7x7, visitors are indeed banned from studying, but that seems to be in direct contradiction to UK law which says that they must be in education until 16 ( whether British or not). Six months in the Uk would, I think, require that the child is in education, and that is where the problem lies. The ECO must refuse. A visit of a couple of weeks would not cause any problem, but I think six months does.

This is not strictly true. Children (up to 18 years old) can study in the UK for up to six months on a child visitor visa.

AFAIK, the ECO is not expected to judge whether six months out of formal Thai education, whilst studying say English, is acceptable or not. They are to judge if the application meets the UK immigration rules.

OP, an appeal is a waste of resources, it surely can't succeed. You have a choice of a shorter visit, or arrange a suitable place of study for a longer period of time in the UK.

Some more thinking is required as from the little you've posted, it appears you lack documentation to support either application.

FaceBook or FarceBook as many call it should be shut down. It has caused more divorces and international problems than it is worth. It should be banned.

This highlights the problem with the world: take the easy way out and blame everything but the root cause of our problems.

Fine on TOT BKK

Instead of battering your keyboard in disgust, you could have found out that a power of attorney or reporting by post is possible.

Which makes all your complaints nonsensical.

Smile and carry on.

Runs, swims and circuits. Lots and lots of circuits. Currently in training for a Tough Mudder next year.

3) A challenge was heard early Feb of this year in Birmingham. AFAIK, judgement hasn't been delivered yet.

Edit: oops, only just noticed this was bumped but with a different question.

It's all about BASH these days, Bed's played-out IMO.

The headline is confusing. It says "3Bb Axes English Hotline Staff" but begs the question: "Axed them what?"

Can't nobody speak good english around here?

I was wondering that myself "Axed them what?"

"this is not Kansas!" true because then they would be required have to have spanish also. The one thing about the EU I like is the fact that unlike the US english is required subject in school.

What are you two on?

If you're running linux then you can log your dynamic ip as it changes using a cron job and dropbox. Configure ssh and networking to run at boot and you're good to go.

Does Ireland check passport of passengers arriving from the UK? I can't recall going through any immigration there.

BTW, Bangkockney, the OP is working as self employed in the UK and so should complete an SA return. Whether his earnings are actually taxable or not does not change the fact that he is breaking the law by not doing so.

He also must have a bank account to pay his stake money from and winnings into. One has to wonder why he is reluctant to show this to the UKBA to prove his earnings and/or savings levels!

Nothing to aplogise for.

Sorry 7by7 but you are wrong.

It is firmly established in case law that gambling is not a trade. There is no vocation of betting.

He is not doing anything illegal so please do stop saying he is - after all, you are viewed as someone with an authoritative opinion here. But in this instance you are wide of the mark.

He could incorporate but to what end? We know little of his proficiency but I would suggest building savings as the best route - why reduce his ability to do so just for the sake of paperwork?!

I suspect that she would need to apply for an Irish visa in Thailand.

As you are working illegally, i.e. not declaring and paying tax on your income, using the EEA route is not an option as you would need to prove that you, the EEA national, were exercising an economic treaty right in the RoI.

Illegal working may seem attractive at the time, but by so doing you've bollixed the chances of a long term visa for your partner; Irish, UK or EEA.

That's twice you've called this poor chap out as a law breaker. How about an apology?

And he hasn't ruined his chances at all - he could make use of the savings route.

UK visit visas can only be extended for exceptional and compassionate reasons; so in your case the answer is no.

As you obviously do not declare your 'earnings' and pay tax on them, there is no way you will be able to show enough income to ever obtain a UK settlement visa for her.

Ever thought of paying tax and working legally? Many professional gamblers do.

Not true. 1. He could meet the financial requirement through savings.

2. Income taxes do not apply to gambling winnings - otherwise the Revenue would have to give an allowance on the losses.

Really sorry to hear that Loong, what a horrible thing to happen.

What's the school's position on this? Will they also be taking action against the boys? I would of thought expulsion would be on the cards.

Thailand is classified as a newly industrialised country.

Bulats has a two year validity.
