Perth doesn’t need tourists, even other states.

I know plenty of people at home in WA that disagree with you.

It's promotion time for the boys, pay increases in line with the promotions of course, instead of promotions and a wages freeze while the country goes hungry.

 

Same, same, different day.

So no different to what happens in western countries and large corporations...

The lady who sets up outside near the waiting chairs to the right of the ramp, take your papers as well, she'll check through them all, mark them off and let you know if correct or not, then give you an appointment date, was a week later when I did it just after they reopened.

Interesting post on Facebook yesterday by a rider stopped on Karon Beach Road.

 

It seems many are being stopped here and taken behind the old police station, out of sight, where they are asked to produce their documents.

 

The person stopped in this instance had helmet, licence and tax yet was fined 1000 baht (negotiiated to 500) for "having his foot in the wrong place" whilst riding the bike!

 

If you want to read further it's in the Brown Bear Facebook group.

Doesn't surprise me in the least, the Karon cops are absolute fk ah and probably the most corrupt lot on the island.

Exactly my point, why a fry-up in Thailand when you can have that at anytime at home, try something different when away ?

Maybe not you but most I imagine have Thai the majority of the time at home, a fry up actually is something different.

If you go by google maps for a breakfast suggestion,  better to call ahead, most places are closed.

"scan a pdf attachment file off an email"

To do that you'd have to have already printed out the pdf attached to the email you want scanned.

"Julapan stationary" in Chalong on ChaoFa East can probably help you.

I did that some years ago and if not changed.. Two copies for each license of: health certificate, Certificate of residency from immigration, Both old licenses. Passport photos and most importantly the pages of visa stamp and also of your TM6 immigration card. Photos for the licenses are of course taken at site. Health certificate is maybe not needed on a 5 year one... I do not think you need to watch the video again either.

Didn't need a health certificate, Did have to do the reaction tests and watch the video again.

I doubt that a Drone would do all this . A drone can Spot something that's all

 

Definition of intercept. (Entry 1 of 2) transitive verb. 1a : to stop, seize, or interrupt in progress or course or before arrival. b : to receive (a communication or signal directed elsewhere) usually secretly. 

Not very smart  people on the "Fuel boat". Should've just shot the Drone out of the Sky. 

Your post oozes irony.

yip, i don't live in Rawai but still drive all the way to SP Garages or is it PS garages, anyway from the chalong round about all the way down to Rawai, the last 7/11 on the left, turn down that soi, along maybe 50 metres and you'll see them,

i paid just recently for a new water pump, hoses, timing belt, new front engine seals, rear shocks, filters all round, hand brake cable and cleaned 8k, i thought he was joking, the time before the water inlet to the manifold had snapped off, manifold off, re-tapped, new inlet fitted, wait for it 1100 baht,

i hope TV members know about this place, i'd like to think he gets recommended, nice old thai guy aswell

Maybe soi Lamkayai, Rawai, that ends leading to the beach?

Is it the green place at the end on the right?

So many unpredictable post, who would have guessed...

It also shows a Thai filming the driver on his smart phone for upload on social media seconds after the accident. Dead or alive , doesn't matter to them, as long as they can entertain themselves. 

Did you just come out of a long coma or something,  happens in all countries, probably even the one you come from.

how did you do that?  Our local DLT doesn't open for any licence renewals until tomorrow, 20th July. 

Do you live in Phuket?

That's were I did it, it opened for renewals for westerners on the 1st July.

FYI, 

You can renew 3 months before the date of expiry, as I did last week.

It's a desaster in Phuket now, as the island relys and depends on the tourists' money.

Yes, there have been by far too many Chinese who have driven out Western tourists.

It would be a chance for a change to the better, as it was after Tsunami, but won't happen.

The Chinese will flock in again for sure 1st.

What was the change for the better after 2004?

Lots of photos and you can see from the pics of the engine how sad the condition of them is. (I don't have a clue about boats/ships, but to me the engines in the pic look way to small for a ship that size. They look like little 2 cylinder truck engines !)

It's got twin 6 cylinder HINO's.

The jobless couple that stole some gas cylinders will be punished more severely than this lady.
