Give "My Kitchen" a try and you will not regret it. Open Facebook for the menu or open the following link and right click until you find their Xmas menu:- https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=937025327949629&set=pb.100049265121495.-2207520000 Open Google maps and put "My Kitchen" in the location search to get directions; loads of parking. The quality and quantity of the food far exceeds the price. Highly recommended They have an indoor a/c room and outdoor tables to boot:- What more could you ask for as a Xmas dinner sitting..... (In reality, the outside sitting is far better than my photographic skills ) If this does not suit your Xmas dinner requirements then try their daily specials for lunch or dinner and one day you must try their 300gm (aprox.) beef steak, chips, 2 veg, salad and bread which cannot be bettered for B130. BTW: I have no connection whatsoever to the restaurant other than being a very contented customer.

Agreed

Why don'r you open a Thai £sterling account and transfer £sterling from your UK account to your Thai account? My UK bank, Barclays, has no charge for International £sterling transfers to Thailand and the Thai bank charges a £12 receiving fee. Doing this means I can transfer £sterling, whenever I want, from my Thai strerling bank account to my Thai Baht bank account with no trnsfer charge. Bankok bank exchange rate lies between their buying and selling rate but I can't remember the term they use.

I don't remember meeting you.....????

Interesting because something does not run true. Before I contacted the immigration police I checked at:- https://www.isitdownrightnow.com/tm47.immigration.go.th.html from the link posted by RobertIII and the server had been down for 8 days which would have been Tuesday of last week. I sent an email to the imm police at 15:30 yesterday and now the server has been up for 14h 54m meaning the server was back online around 00:25 which is this morning but there we go.

Surprisingly, it seems my reporting of the site being down worked a treat ????

As others have reported, the login page of Thai Imm TM47 90 day report is down due to a timeout error:- So I have reported to the Thai immigration police. cheersD

Agreed. I use Tivi as my 'go to' app. As you use Tivi you obvioulsy have the M3U url therefore you could always try IPTV Extreme Pro from the play store. There is no trial, you have to purchase the app but it is cheap, about B50 and well worth it. Not as slick as Tivi but many many more otions including a buffer that I describe how to implement in Tivi below:- One of the benefits of Tivi is you can set VLC as an external player to remove buffering due to Internet issues with Live streams. All that is required is to change a couple of VLC settings to form a 1 minute pre-load FiFo in RAM which will either remove or significantly reduce buffering. Smarters does the same for Catch-Up and VOD.

What apps do you use to stream IPTV?

The Farang I was referring to has his own Thai registered company employing Thais. I can assure you a work visa for a Farang employing Thais is NOT a straightforward matter as you are implying. BTW: I have done my own visa and 90 day report for years.

Before I took on the 90 day / annual visa task myself I used Assist and I highly recommend them. I know Farangs that use Assist to sort out the nightmare of a Farang work related visa and they also recomend. I hope this helps ????

Nah, according to 'Her Indoors' Thai Immigration are now working weekends or at least they work weekends in CM.

I submitted my online 90 application to Chiang Mai immigration at 1:30pm on December 19th. I received the confirmation at midday today, Sunday December 25th!!! Prior to this application previous applications were approved in hours with the longest approval taking just over a day.
