I just wanted to find out what nose filler was, had a funny impression of people filling up their nostrils for some silly reason

Yes, had me wondering too. Strange what names they give to things. I believed for years that Pollyfilla was an embalming process for parrots...!!

I thought nose filler was coke yes its usually referred to as nose candy for those pedantic amongst you............

You can bring in most prescription medicines, with a doctors prescription and as long as it is an ammount for not more than 30 days. In addition you need to declare it on arrival at customs, who will allow it or not.

Another way is to (have your doctor) contact a Thai hospital that can decribe the medication for you.

Some more info here:

sorry I forgot to mention, this is 100% correct! As long as you plan to stay no longer than the 30 day tourist visa allotted you should be fine.

With a note from a doctor you can bring 3 months supply of personal medication such as codine into Thailand

Great job ! Now clean up the jet sky scams for good and I will be really impressed. Keep up the good work !

Jet Sky, is this a new recreational pursuit ? sounds great. Whats the scam, you can't land until you give your credit card pin number ?

Was Bangkok 'bombed' during WWII ?

Not a piss take, I didn't know.

What was the history?

Wikipedia is your friend! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombing_of_Bangkok_in_World_War_II

"Allied bombing raids on the Thai capital city of Bangkok began even before Thailand had declared war, since the Empire of Japan was using the country as a staging area for its invasions of both Malaya and Burma, with the agreement of the Thai government after Japan's successful invasion of the southeast Asian country. The first raid came on January 7, 1942, when Royal Air Force (RAF) aircraft flying fromRangoon, attacked military targets in the city.^[1][2] The American Volunteer Group, together with seven No. 113 Squadron RAF and three No. 45 Squadron RAFBlenheim bombers, were involved in the first raid.^[3] No. 113 Squadron's planes were piloted by No. 60 Squadron's air crew. The second night raid was carried out with 8 Blenheims on 24-25 January and included No. 60 Squadron RAF aircrew.^[4] A final raid was made three days later by four Blenheims. This was the last raid by Blenheims until May or June 1945."

Fact check: Thailand was not involved in WW2.

SIAM was.

This enables Thais to say Thailand has never been invaded.

I seem to think the Thai's say they were never colonised which is a completely different thing from being invaded !

High time Thailand had a rule that you must have a proper driving test and licence to help improve the shocking road death toll in Thailand RIP to all those who died in the van accident and RIP to all the others who will die on the Thai roads today.

Not only the above but tacographs should be fitted in vehicles carrying passengers to limit the hours driven backed up by regular checks & stiff penalties for those who drive over permitted hours, much like those rules applied to Europe. The vehicles could also be fitted with devices that detect & wake sleepy drivers at very little cost.

No, I am not advocating a nanny state, just laws to protect paying passengers. Too much to ask ? Better to pay more for transportation than have all these needless deaths. Lets face it, these amulets do not work all the time

Honda is a crappy car anyway, they use too much recycled materials in the manufacturing process e.g. your coke or beer can that you drank has been recycled is somewhere in the body of the car, and if you “fart” next to the car it dents the body work.

I would suggest you go see a doctor or seriously change your diet if your farts put dents into metal, or perhaps you could get yourself listed in the Guinness Book Of Records ?

Coup in progress. Step 1: disperse the Reds, but not the PRDC. Step 2: Senate replaces govt illegally. Coup complete.

you forgot the next steps

Step 3. Make the necessary reforms

Step 4. Make free and fair elections

Then it starts all over again.

There are no winners here. The country is too divided. Whatever party wins, the other party will want them out, and here we go again.

Rinse and repeat.

Don't bother rinsing.....just hang everything out to dry before chucking it in the bin..... and get a complete new wardrobe...new designs, new colours...none of the same designers!

But, but, Taskin Hilflinger is sooo in this year & do you have any idea how much top fashion outfits cost ?

Don't throw out, you never know when those outfits will be back in fashion !

They shouldn't have committed crimes......no prison anywhere is meant to be like the Hilton!

Typical blinkered view. No prison anywhere is like the Hilton. Prison is a loss of freedom, that is one hell of a bit punishment in its own right. No doubt there are innocent people in prison, mentally impaired etc, political prisoners etc I suppose they should suffer too ?

Hopefully your attitude will result in karma giving you a taste of prison, it would be interesting to hear your views once you are incarcerated.

Humans should treat other humans with dignity regardless of whether they are classed as criminals.

I am gobsmacked. I travelled into Silom today for a hospital appointment in Convent Road. Drove to the airport, parked there, train into Phaya Thai, changed there for Siam and then to Sala Daeng. Returned same way.

Never saw a single soldier!!!

so theyre were no soldiers on the bts ,what does that prove ?.............

Maybe it proves soldiers don't like trains

The "white powder" they were adding to joints was probably just dry-sifted resin glands from the cannabis they grew.

It's quite common to do because it's the only pharmacologically active part of the plant. The rest is just plant material which produce tars and other unhealthy by-products when burned.

Some experts say that smoking the whole but rather than just the resin is like eating a pizza and consuming the box too.

If you smoke a lot, like two of my friends who have chronic back pain due to spinal cord injuries, you can get accustomed to it and consume more than you used to.

One has a license to produce in Canada and smokes 30+ grams a day. His lung function was tested in the 80 percentile and he never looks like the "typical" stoner. No slurred speech, memory lapses etc. The other is a PhD, smokes during breaks at work and has a better memory than me and probably the majority of people here who don't smoke.

The worst side effect of cannabis is the laws against it. It's immoral IMO to put people in a cage for smoking a harmless herb.

5k under the table, the "evidence" goes "up in smoke" and the happy couple leave slightly poorer (and no smarter).

I've known a lot of hard-core weed smokers over the years (never touch drugs myself, but I'm often on best terms with Jack Daniels, but sometimes little Bailey's or Kaluha makes a nice change).

Friends back in Canada years ago used to devote years to plant cultivation, hybrids, splicing, etc to try and produce the highest possible THC content they could. Their pot made ever other kind of pot look like skunk weed.

Surprise, surprise. It just wasn't enough though, was it ? Some of them would smoke pot as often as I smoked cigarettes (back when I was still smoking). Smoking 4 joints between waking up and getting to the job site 90 minutes later was not uncommon. Meanwhile, weekend parties ? Seems even that hi-grade weed just wouldn't give enough of a buzz. But hey, add a little "something" to it (usually in a white powder form) and then convince people that super buzz was from the weed ?

That's when I stopped hanging out with that crowd.

If they had to add PCP or other drugs to their high-grade weed, and then get other people smoking it (without knowing what they were smoking), then something was wrong. Great way to loosen someone's "inhibitions" though. Maybe get them to try something "else" that'll be sure to give them the same kind of high. And once they're stoned, well, who knows........

I also know people that just smoke regular pot - basically whatever they can get their hands on. And after years and years, they too smoke it as often as most people smoke cigarettes. It's not hard to see the drooping eyes, slurred speech and mental lapses.

I'm sure it's nothing to do with heavy pot smoking though, because everyone keeps saying how wonderful it is.

But just like alcohol - in moderation it's not that bad. But abuse it and consume large quantities all the time and you'll end up just as screwed up as if you did the same thing with pot.

What a load of crap, it would be nigh impossible to smoke 30 grams in a day. Have been smoking ganja for over 25 years, still manage to keep a good job and my brain is in ok condition.

All these alcoholic sex fiends preaching on the dangers of cannabis, just go back in your box and stop judging everyone. Who the <deleted> do you think you are. Probably the same ppl illegally buying valium and viagra ? Still this is TV and their is plenty of crap written here.

Question:

On some occasions do visa runs from Laos to Thailand. I enter and exit Thailand on same day. I know several people in Vientiane who do same.

Will we be affected?

I was wondering about this, in theory if they inforce this rule then people living in Laos doing a monthly border run will be refused entry into Thailand, even it seems if you get a tourist visa assuming they enforce the 9 months in one year rule.

I have a year visa in laos & will have to stop regularly shopping in Nong Khai !

You can get yearly Laos visas for less than $500 which is cheaper & less hassle than doing monthly visa runs anyway. message me if you need details.

Laos yearly visas need no reporting every 90 days ! more enlightened than Thailand for sure

The sponsorer was 'Easy Lay' eggs

After the graft was paid there was no money left, the yokes on them. Yes that really was egg on their faces

The poor guy, he must feel really left out.

I see quite a few monks staying at our $60 a night rooms. They usually have Ipads, Iphones and the latest digital cameras. Has Louis Vittion designed a monks robe yet as they already have the handbags ?

Show me a religion that isnt full of hyprocrites.

Adorable ? he looks like a fat over indulged child of a Hi So, most North Koreans are thin to the point of being malnourished. I bet he did nasty things to animals as a child, now he does it to dissenting fellow countrymen. I blame the parent !

Obviously most other countries are out to get North Korea so they need to be harsh on their people in case they think the grass is greener on the otherside (which of course it is)

I have NEVER got into the shit you get into on a regular basis, nooooooooo pun intended. BUT, your crap really does piss me off. A member is now on a TV holiday from a totally shit topic designed to do that stuff............ Very sad amigo.............

You're not interested in this topic. You're just interested in throwing personal dirt. That is not welcome.

I read many topics, many of yours ,, well you do post a lot. What I read werrrrrrrrles around in my head and assumptions appear. If you can't see my assumptions, well OK, but I do.....Dirt, where is your dirt from, ? You, never thought of that.............

Looks like you post half as much as Jingthing and if this is the quality of your posts then I think you should keep your thoughts to yourself. You do have the choice not to read his posts but seems your just a troll............ Get a life outside of TV

Why are effeminate gays referred to as camp, I see nothing effeminate about camping.

Are you an english teacher?

Also who is Camp David and why do American presidents like visiting him ?

I was wondering because of your sense of humor and your analysing skills!

No not an English teacher nor a camping enthusiast, I just wondered what the connection was between outdoor activities & being a screaming queen had to do with each other

Why are effeminate gays referred to as camp, I see nothing effeminate about camping.

Camp David is a place not a person, but now that you mention it, maybe there is a David whose camp at the place, but I doubt it, those Presidents would be much happier after a visit, if there were.

Really, well you learn something new every day

I think I will swallow a fork, locking my anus.....

Sent from my iPhone using Thaivisa Connect Thailand

I would think locking ones anus could lead to a bad case of constipation and what makes you think anyone would be interested in your anus anyway unless you are offering it around ?

Stick to oral, I mean, if you can swallow a fork I'm sure you could swallow quite a few inches Please ensure you have paid your health insurance premiums before the fork thing and expect a lot of laughter from the medical staff when you are seeking assistance for having done such a foolish thing.

Live with it, they were around before you were (historically), get ear plugs or move to a country that doesnt have Tookays...take your pick. There are many worse things that could be keeping you awake so be thankful.

I have one living part time in my roof and several at work, still not as noisey as the damn cockrel next door who thinks its dawn at 2am, 3am, 4am, 12pm ect !

Arrogant dimwit....all he needed to do was arrange for it to be sent with the appropriate packaging for the item and it would have be fine. Too stingy to pay the extra cost.

Arrogant Thai Visa poster... You even stop to think, obviously not, another dimwitted armchair critic, He would hardly sent a picture to himself, he was not responsible for the packing. Typical TV moron who think they are superior whilst reality is postal workers should at least be able to read !

No doubt if something you were expecting to be delivered ended up being damaged you would moan and expect people to empathise with you, probably post a gripe right here !

Don't judge people without knowing the facts & think before putting spouting such crap.

The only way to ensure less accidents on Thai buses is to wait until the technology for driverless vehicles is fully developed.... I am sure most of the accidents are due to humans and their driving ability.

Until then any sort of transport in Thailand requires 20+ amulets & good luck

Very sad news. Very irresponsible of the boy as well if in fact it was a bomb he was handling while his family were in the house.

They do start to become radicalized early in Thailand.

Look djjamie, you're already guaranteed 1st place in "Most Tenuous Link of the Year" award. You won't be able to top "PTP responsible for death of monk food seller" so why do you keep on trying?

Only able to attack the poster and not the post heay? Typical.

You yourself stated that was not a good practice yet defend it when you do it.

So any thoughts on the OP or my post? Or just continue to be condescending?

ok, I'll make it easy for you to understand;

1. No evidence of any political activity.

2. No specific evidence it was even a bomb and not a gas cylinder explosion or otherwise.

The deceased could just as easily been involved in criminal activity, or been one of those idiot vocational students who attack one another, or a victim of an unfortunate event.

If a bomb maker, he could have been associated with the PDRC. No one has the facts at this time, so why make false accusations and claims?

You know nothing, but weigh in with innuendo and nonsense.

Innuendo and nonsense ? you have summed up most replies on TV

Personally I think we should blame the internet. well why not, its the form on here to make stupid assertions// Oh why the internet, if he was making a bomb its because the construction details can be found online Tenuous or what ! If it wasn't his bomb then the maker probably got the info from the same place
