Came back, so no problem. Just took a bit longer than in the past.

Mail came back today, that is a turnaround time of 12 days. 3B stamp is enough for normal mail on the return.

Included the slip and a blank TM47 form, no other notice.

On the backside a list of names of policemen responsible for the area .

You sent it in on April 1 and received it back on April 12. What date does your 90 day START on?

Due date was 11th, it was stamped on the 4th, new date is 2nd July.

Talk to the guys from thaiexports.com, in Hang Dong. They would be able to advise.

Rip offs are significantly lower than in alien populated beach locations. But that's a question of taste

Got a bit mixed up, there is another thread for us normal aliens....but yes, it's possible to get one with a yellow tabien baan, of course depending on the local amphoe, the weather and the last night of the officer in charge as everything here....

^ Yes. In 50 years time people will dig it up and imagine that Songkran was a tranquil cultural celebration in 2016.

It was always better 50 years ago. We just don't know

Yeah, that's good. It's a job to make a living but it may also be a compassion. If you want to succeed you have to be competitive. Educating yourself certainly helps.

1669 is commercial, not volunteers. But the only thing that matters is if they can make it in time.

We just had this, please look at the other thread.

As for putting a flower pot or cable IN the road, are you serious?

Probably they cater for the Chinese tourists, bring something traditional back home ...

No usufruct for life.

What makes you say that?

Most do not belong to any hospital, they are freelancers on a commission basis. They get radioed the accident and the hunt starts. Sometimes even more dangerous than the thing they run for....

You could always put some plants there, forcing them to drive zickzack. Or put a light on one and a cable across the path, covered by something bright...

You can order from Aliexpress, lots of this stuff there.

They are not volunteers, it's a huge industry.

Every ambulance and rescue car carries their hotline number 1669. They virtually fight for the dead and injured, you just need to watch any bigger accident, they will rush to the site, first one wins. Which is a good thing after all.

Now add some cowboy and indian uniforms ...

They have the plastic ones in Global (orange/black). You could remove them if someone complains. I'd just try the next police station and ask them, if they give their nod you can always point back to them. I don't think anything would happen if you try to approach DLT.

while the borax works good around the kitchen in the tree where the ants can be too much also or anywhere really if you spray them with water and dish soap they die instantly .

You just kill the workers. They will breed again and are back in no time. Borax they will carry into the nest and to the queen. Thus the colony will die.

...My card has a serial number 9, so they issued only 9 of these cards as of last month. .

This means that in your 13-digit ID number, counting from left to right, the seven digits in position 6–12 are 0000009. Is this correct?

No, there is a serial number under the picture, with the issuing amphoe code and a sequential number. Besides the amphoe code it's unrelated to the 13 digits ID.

The black ones (carpenter ants) will eat the borax solution. They are a bit hesitating first but then they come. Got some palms free of them, they like standing water where the leaves connect to the stem. Situation improved, but they always come back from the neighbors.

Immi @ Promenada was wearing flower shirts on Tuesday. Magnum PI would have been jealous

Do they have police raids with automatic rifles in Geneva too?

If you look at the back label at the top on the right-hand side just below the bar code you will see in small print the words "fruit wine"

You are right...darn....that is well hidden. Next time need to scan it and run a computer search

..................................... temples become bazaars, there is nothing traditional at all. .................

Temples in virtually EVERY culture have traditionally been the center of commerce, not just Thai.

In the early days the bazaar was always set up either inside or outside against the temple walls.

Only in later history did the markets move to the protection of the castle walls.

There is an excuse and explanation for everything. That's why Jehova gave us the internet

If it's a visa it depends if it is multiple entry or single entry. In the first case you can re-enter the country latest 15 June and you would get another 90 days.

If it is an extension of stay, as previously said, the re-entry permit will be dated 15 June. No additional 90 days, you need to apply for a new extension.
