  1. Have seen so many of these type of accidents on Thai media, where you cringe, because you cannot understand why the bike rider slams straight into another vehicle without attempting to take avoiding action, likely because their eyes were not on the road.
  2. Absolutely correct, with the aim of tracking down many of the above payments which are sent abroad by fraudsters. Unfortunately, this in turn will have the effect of ensnaring OAPs living abroad and still claiming a UK address to maintain a full pension. The good news is the DWP says it is only going to be rolled out on a test basis from next year and then take five years to fully implement..
  3. All the more satisfying the fact she never saw it coming.
  4. Don't know about "profuse sweaters," but got a rather nice M&S cardie for Christmas.
  5. Understnd that the full acronym for BTU is GOBTU.....Good Old British Thermal Units.
  6. Anyways, what were you doing at Big C today, was it your birthday. Pretty sure I was behind you in the coupon queue waiting for you to reclaim the remaining three baht on your card.
  7. Fortunately have got the dosh to splosh, unlike some folk it seems.
  8. No am here, sponging money from hard working tax payers.
  9. Bet a pack of Chang or Leo is still within his budget.
  10. You wait, she will be in court in a wheelchair.
  11. It's the airlines you have got to be careful of these days, they will refuse boarding for the slightest sign of damage, which your passport will still carry even with freshly-minted extension stamp.
  12. Concerned at the likely ignominy of being arrested on return at the airport.
  13. That's what the do at Korat, think they somehow think final report will run out same time as your extension. Bugs me, everytime you can lose 10 days or so if you report early, but you can do your extension early and it is stamped on the due date.
  14. If they reset your 90-day report at time of extension you will have a slip of paper in back of your passport with the next report date.
  15. At Korat, previously, your final 90-day report expiry was timed to coincide with the end date of your extension, when they reset the clock. Note this year the next report due date ran past the extension renewal date, even so still had the clock reset on my recent extension renewal. And you guessed it, just had a reminder to renew my old report. Wondering what happens now when my current report is due.
  16. Give it a go at re-applying. Now, as to asking immigration to explain their motives.,..
  17. Standard reply, but you still need to go within the reporting window. Think you may have applied a tad too early
  18. "Nobody thought to mention when they were checking and taking my money" Love the way these folk swing it to make out it was entirely the fault of the IO.
