My ticket is 70 days duration (actually, valid for 12 months, but the return date is beginning of December), so if I don't get a visa, I'm sure there's no way around doing a visa run. All for the want of 6 bloody days! ????

Thanks, guys... will try the application now!

So, I think I may have just shot myself in the foot! Stupidly, I thought I could get 75 days worth of (visa exempt) stay already, but it appears that's from 1st October. My company's paid for my ticket (because I'm such a great employee! ????????) and they've booked the ticket on 24th September, for 70 days duration (figured a couple days short, just to be on the safe side!), but it looks like I now need a visa. The website for the Embassy in London is typically vague/confusing about whether I need to show up in person to get a visa (before I fly on the 24th). Can anyone confirm it's just a "simple" case of applying for an eVisa online, or must I go to London. Alternatively, can I get 30 days on arrival, get an extension, and do an old fashioned visa run for the last 10 days? As Blackadder would say.... "<deleted>!" ????

It's astounding when often you can find counterfeit products at 1/10 the price that are identical to the named brand. However, those many of those copies don't have the R&D and and investment/production costs. It's one thing copying a handbag or a pair of sneakers... not much R&D gone into those, but the mechanical goods are another matter. We had products copied in China and sold on Aliexpress within a couple of months of release, that cost us hundreds of thousands of GBP in R&D and tooling. I saw some of "our" products on show cars/bikes at the BKK motor show too... and I might add, liable to be very dangerous copies too.

Trigger happy cops in America would've probably just shot him just for being there! Sad to see the Yanks on a shooting topic almost salivating at the thought of emptying a magazine into someone.

I doubt it will matter who the owners are. They were probably on the first flight out of U-Tapao this morning!

F1's too corrupt... the Thais could never make any money out of it!

Plenty of money in my own UK and Channel Islands accounts, thank you. Bare minimum in a Thai account.

As the saying goes... Only ever invest in Thailand what you are prepared to lose.

Good luck with that. I suspect they're only thinking about imminent arrivals, just to try and win a little favour. I hope I'm wrong, but expect to see all arrivals having to quarantine within week or so. Probably anyone after New Year, once Omicron's well and truly established in the populace, which will of course be predominantly blamed on the incoming travellers.

Or, maybe you're a slave to p*ssy?! You may want to try looking into an equal partnership, with mutual respect.

I wish there was a webcam in arrivals so I can watch the rush to immigration live from the comfort of my sofa!
