For each licence. Car & Motorbike. Passport & copy of passport ID page Residence Certificate Old Licence Medical Certificate. i think that's it, but there may be more. You can Google it. Oh and dress smart. I have seen people turned away at my local DMV centre for dressing scruffy. i usually just wear long trousers and a polo shirt.

Take photocopies of everything. Don't forget to take two of everything if you are renewing both car and motorbike licences.

One of those Aussie pick ups kitted out with solar and a good tent would be better. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L7IKlS8Z2Nc

I think that is the new electric VW camper. Looks great, but how to charge it out in the wilds?

With that side opening, it looks more like a burger van than a camper. ???? Seriously though, I don't think there is much of a market for camper vans here in Thailand. Accommodation being available pretty much everywhere from downright cheap and up. Quite a few campsites (for tents) though.

I think that was The Graham Norton Show last week. Regardless of his personal life or sexuality, he is a very talented singer with I believe a four octave range. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NqqOZbMWesI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hhREiAarjVY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jzDnsjYv9A

The captchas I get are only with Google.

Pity the elephant didn't break free and trample them. Some people just don't deserve to be on this Earth.

I went to Samui immigration last week and it was packed with mainly Russians. Mostly younger ones looking around or under 35 years old. Singles, couples and some families. All probably renewing or extending their visas. Given the choice of Russia right now, with winter and Putin's war, or sunny Samui, I know where I would rather be. Many seem to be here for the long haul, as many Russian children enrolled in the local international schools.

I do have a VPN, but I don't keep it on all the time. In fact the first thing I checked when I started getting the captchas was that it was off. Funnily enough, after being on DuckDuckGo for several days, I just changed my browser search engine back to Google, did some searches, and so far no Captchas. Weird.

Don't they also have the Death Railway in Kanchanaburi? Bridge on the River Kwai.

I agree. it's not easy to find cotton t-shirts etc in most Thai shops. Maybe in the big malls in Bangkok, but even there you have to search. As for all the synthetic stuff, It's a marketing ploy by the manufacturers to charge fortunes for what is basically polyester. They now call it "Technical fibre", and even the big fashion houses use it to make most of their clothing nowadays. Best to find a shop that sells materials, like this one on corner of Sukhumvit Soi 14 or 16. Can't remember. Couple of minutes walk from Asok. On the corner where you turn to Benjakitti Park. https://www.facebook.com/hyhfabric Then find a tailor to make your shirts. Or order on the internet. https://www.amazon.com/s?k=100+percent+cotton+polo+shirts+for+men&crid=BTHQ4QF1YXNN&sprefix=100%+cotton+polo+for+men%2Caps%2C342&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_24

We all know about the various different parking areas in Central, limiting use to specific groups; VIP, Exclusive, Family, Pets, Women, Supercars, Superbikes etc. I might have missed one or two. Well on a visit on Saturday, I noticed a new one. It seems they are building an EV charging station parking area. Pretty soon I will have to buy an electric Ferrari, take the girlfriend, daughter, and the dog when I go shopping. Just to get a chance of parking. What next? Ladyboy parking?

Nor have I until about a month ago. When all of a sudden, every Google search on my iPhone requires me to complete one or more Captchas. Either that or I get a message along the lines of "detected suspicious activity from your IP address. Please try again later." There is an option on iPhones that is supposed to prevent or reduce this, but it doesn't work for me. See below: You can turn this bypass on or off. Go to Settings > [your name] > Password & Security, then turn Automatic Verification on or off.

Back in the old location by the look of things. They were doing it all up (Sound Club) when I passed by there last week. KhunPer probably still sleeping after two nights of closing and opening parties. ????

I have recently had to stop using it due to constantly being asked to tick Captcha boxes with every search. I tried every remedy that I could find on the internet, without success. In the end I changed browser search engine to DuckDuckGo.

A question. If someone arrives on a visa exempt, then wants to change to Non O, See where I have copied and marked in bold below from No.8 on that linked form, How can they show a rental receipt for the past three months? RentalAgreementbetweentheApplicantandtheLandlord; Acopy of house registration. Location map of the house and a rental receipt Past three months.

Looking at that beach photo in the article, I can see it is only 'near full capacity'. There are still a few patches of sand that don't have deckchairs on them. ????

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought "Elephant Buffet." ????

When I asked, I was told it was for good luck.

But if you visit their website, they make various different named pot noodles.

Dare not name which brand in the interest of safety.

Looks like whoever took the photo of the lady beat him to it.

Make sure you pronounce her name right: An Yu Ching. Or you might get this one:

Yes. That is their business model. Hook you with cheap printer prices, then charge the Earth for ink cartridges. My Canon printer, scanner, copier is not that old, but as you say, it might be better to buy a new one if this shortage continues. I have finally managed to source the particular black ink cartridge I need from Lazada. Though not deivered yet. A bit late for printing all the documents required for my retirement extension, but it should at least last me the next few months. @Ginkas. Yes. This article still applies. There is a severe shortage of Canon ink cartridges.
