Calrton what a pathetic 2nd half team. 1 goal in a half. At least they scored more last week. They were very lucky to win. Tom Lynch scoring 2 goal 7 was unbeliveable. Like last week still shaking my head.

This was the beginning of the comp. They started this opening round a couple of seasons ago. These teams have byes over the next numbers of rounds. I do not like this opening round idea.

What a strange game. Swans score 18 points in 1 half and 18 goals in the next. They scored 75 points in the 3rd quarter. Equal 3rd in all time history. I am still shaking my head. A great win.

Watched most of the origin game. It was a fast hard game with a few scuffles in it. The first quarter took 43 minutes to play. Jacob Weitering was badly hurt. There was no malice involve but had 1 West Aus player land on his upper body and a team mate on his lower body. He was streched off and ended up in hospital. Victoria ended up winning.

Is Thailand Really a Smart Place to Grow Old?
The dangling line are not electical but internet lines. When you get a new upgrade or a new internet server the old lines are not taken down. Blame the internet people not the electric ones.

Wise: Transfer delayed - never experienced this before
Was it coded with FTT? If it was it is a foreign transfer. BBL have to code it manually. That it why it always around 1400. Did you selected long term stay in Thailand with wise?

Wise: Transfer delayed - never experienced this before
I opened my Wise account in 2017 in Thailand.

Wise: Transfer delayed - never experienced this before
I did a transfer on 22nd. I transferred the money at 0730 Thai time and it arrived at 1402 same day, It was from Australia to my Bangkok bank and coded as FTT. If it is a public holiday in Thailand or if Wise send the money after 1000 it will arrive the next day. Also weekends it will not go in your account until the first working day. This if you wanted it coded as foreign transfer in Bangkok bank.

I live up north and I have seen the same. I have also seen the opposite. I have been in an ambulance 3 times in the past 4 years and they do seem to have a good run to the hospital.

Retirement visa renewal - additional form?
I always go 2 weeks before and ask them what I need. I am very lucky my Immigration office is small. They always give me 2 forms to fill out and sign for when I do my extension.I live up north.

First extension with new passport
The best advice is go to your local Immigration office and ask them. Before I do my yearly extension I attend my local office and ask them want they need. I am lucky I attend a small office where they are very helpful.

Best place to get passport photos done?
Contact the Australian Embassy in Bangkok and ask them do they have a photographer in Jontiem to use. In November I did my renewal in Chaing Mai and they reject my photos. They gave me one in Chaing Mai. When I returned they were accepted. Good luck.
