    Neither is Sinopharm.... Even if it was my "Vaccination Certificate" (That's a joke, it's a print out from the hospitals website so could easily be doctored) doesn't include my date of birth so no doubt wouldn't be valid ???? 

     

    Anybody know where I can go & get re-vaccinated at a place that not only has a vaccine that is acceptable for travel to the UK but will also issue a proper vaccine certificate?

     

    Failing that, if I were to return to the UK does anybody know how quickly I could get fully vaccinated there before returning to Thailand?  

     

     

    Edit: Still great news though & real progress in opening up being able to travel between Thailand & UK ???? 

     

     

    1st jab on day of arrival and second 24/28 days later

    I once had a "strange" problem,dead battery not cranking over so  changed the battery  and it ran fine for a couple days (short drives) then stopped just pulling away from parked..battery dead again

    turned out the alternator was bad so the battery was doing it all.

     

    I also had an ignition coil  that would fail when it got hot..and seem to be ok again when it cooled down.

    Plug in an obd  £20 from amazon diagnos the fault. Easy,plug into fuse box and run the vehicle

    Tell the germans to keep the mini. The Original mini was a cute and cheap car for the british, as was the beetle for the germans. Now the Germans have taken the mini and made it an over priced piece of bodlely waste

    Airbus make their statement,  Thousands march on the streets of London (coming from all over Britain) to ask for a final say on the negotiated deal.  Liam Fox saying that a "No Deal" is still on the table, Boris warning of a "bog roll" Breixt.  Latest survey (yes I know) says 48% want a vote on the outcome of the negotiations and 25% don't.

     

    For those who don't get it, this is all about ramping up the pressure.  Expect more to come every week from now on.  Don't bother trying to respond to every new statement because in no time at all another will come along with an opposing view.

    Yes meeting the three requirements that you listed plus the English Language Test will get you to square one but to get a settlement visa on the next step your wife will have to pass the Life in the UK test. Sounds at first sight like it would be a simple matter of her learning a few basic facts about the UK, but it is not. Please don't underestimate how difficult this test is.

     

    Your wife will be required to memorise over 6,000 facts including over 200 dates packed into 30,000 words on British culture and politics, and all the key events in British history from the bronze age to the present day. It was originally only required for citizenship applications but May slipped it into the settlement visa requirements in 2012 to cut immigration on the partner route knowing full well that over 50% of non English speaking applicants were failing it. She added an extra 10,000 words just for good measure.

     

    Before you commit to this track I strongly recommend that you ask your wife to read through the whole book and get a feel whether she could score 75% on a test on the information in it. Someone has posted the book on line here - http://www.lifeintheunitedkingdomtest.co.uk/.

     

    My wife and I met all the other requirements but no matter how hard she tries she cannot memorise enough of it to pass the test, and it has been a very distressing experience for both of us. Your wife might have a great memory and be able to pass it, but if she cant she will be stuck with having to make eternal applications for a temporary 'further leave' visa every few years with the fear of rejection and deportation each time.

     

    It is outrageous that husbands and wives of British citizens are being prevented from settling in the UK simply because they do not have the mental capacity to pass this test. But I cant see it being reviewed any time soon, so the best advice I can give to anyone thinking of settling here with a Thai wife is to be aware of it and check it out very carefully before you commit to this route. In my case it wasn't a requirement when my wife entered the UK to settle here, but the rules were changed and the goalposts moved just afterwards. Forewarned is forearmed so hope this helps.

     

    Wow Excellent post. Something to think about

    What do you want, a miracle

    Dont know if you have ever been in a thai court.Or been though their system. I had. 4 Judges 10 posecutors and 1 lawyer. Its a mess. America says you are guilty until proven innocent. According to the system. Then you are still guilty until you pay the prosecutor.If you dont, you go to the next court,and if found not guilty, And you dont pay You got to the supreme court. By the way this takes 5 years, we are still waiting for this court date.Never heard of triple jepedy

    Simple really. Find a user with an empty gas bottle and swop  it for your full one. The  empty bottles are  almost always  exchanged for a full one. Simple solution really

    1. Prosecute to the full extent of the law all "non-connected" offenders.

     

    2. There are no Amart, Hi-So or " Connected" individuals involved in human trafficing.

     

    3. Ensure the correct percentage of the "take" is passed upwards.

     

    There you go, guidelines completed, how easy was that.

    If you are not connectected or hi-so and wont pay, off the next level of court, until you pay

    The surfacing of the submarine off Phuket caused a sensation online. Screengrab: Facebook via Thanapot Meeboonkit

     

    PHUKET:-- The surfacing of a submarine off the west coast of Phuket yesterday (April 29) has caused a stir online, with people posting comments in belief that the submarine was one that Thailand bought from China.

     

    The video was posted online by Thanapot Meeboonkit, who said he did not record the video himself. Instead, he asked readers to credit the actual person who took the video, but failed to name the person.

     

    The sighting of the submarine was made by a Thai tourist on a fishing boat on the way back to shore in Phuket, noted Thai PBS in its report of the incident.

    We haven’t done anything to either of our tanks for 17 years and our water smells fine and no one has gotten sick from bathing in it.

    I do open the drain-cock on the bottom of each tank once a month or so and drain off the sentiment.

    Sorry to say. if euro peoeple would bath or shower more, then they would not have the problems. your comments are correct
