    Whilst we are on the subject of Lazada, Madam fended off a potential COD scam for 900 Baht "we haven't ordered anything"! I never use COD, period! Anything which might attract duty I always warn her.
  2. Crossy
    Well, I think you should have received a discount for January, but not >200 Baht ???? I know @JAS21 got his MEA bill recently, anything interesting?
  3. Crossy
    Interesting, I wonder if that's catching up from previous months when they under-discounted you? Our man will come on Friday we shall see what transpires.

    Google Translate is definitely your friend ???? If switching Lazada language to English doesn't work, I change to Thai and use the Chrome built-in Google Translate.

    Yeah, our two chihuahuas get Pedigree "mini" dried food supplemented by the "extra" chicken / rice / veggies / pork that Madam cooks. I swear that sometimes they eat better than I do ????

    Is anyone even slightly surprised?

    Memory is a bit hazy, but I think I saw an article stating that the government / BOT had outlawed the purchase of crypto with Thai cards. EDIT It's possible it was this I remembered (from Wiki).

    I got an official letter from the amphur office, all stamped up and sealed etc. Cost was zero! Got a certified translation (cost definitely NOT zero) which was accepted in the UK.

    Just remember to pass it the right way "Port goes to Port". I got into trouble as a guest in the wardroom of HMS Daedalus for sending it the wrong way. The penalty was that all the officers bought me a drink, which I had to consume at that session! One never forgets!

    I'm sure PortugalVisa.com will welcome you with open arms, a 357 Magnum perhaps (NOT an ice-cream) ????

    @BritTim Can you help here please?

    Sadly, our real expert has left us ???? I'm no immigration guru, just reiterating what was the case in the past. I'm very happy to be proven wrong either by a Thai immigration site or IATA. Note that non-Thai embassy sites are notorious for their less-than-accurate data ???? To be absolutely safe our OP should really renew his PP either before leaving or whilst out of the country.
  13. Crossy
    People. Rather than slinging the mud, why not try to access the IATA site which is the definitive source. I failed to make it work with our OP's data but I'm on a slightly flaky connection at present.
  14. Crossy
    If anyone can actually make the revised IATA travel site (which will be the airline's source of data) work with our OP's details I will stand corrected. Once upon a time it simply stated the requirement which was validity for duration of stay.
  15. Crossy
    Yup, you will have no problem. Thailand's requirement is for the PP to be valid for the length of your stay. Watch for restrictions on any transit countries if you are not flying direct.

    I made the mistake of trying to get a coffee in a Rotterdam "coffee shop" (I was young and naive). I did actually get a coffee, and an education

    An old couple is on a walk, when a pigeon flies by and deposits a poopy little present on the woman's head. "Yech!" says the woman. "Get some toilet paper." "What for? He must be half-a-mile away by now."

    I know your pain. If the car in front hasn't cleared the barrier almost immediately, I stop and leave a big "reversing space". Of course, you get the occasional wazzock nipping in front only to confront someone backing out. I have to go through 3 gates on my daily commute (one going in, two going out). On the way home yesterday, I got two RoS (one at each gate). Grrr.

    At least the rat was guaranteed fresh!

    Does it have any sort of label with a part number?
  24. Crossy
    One wonders why she can't get to the funds??
  25. Crossy
    Sometimes it's faster to pay cash when someone in front has to do "the reverse of shame"
