Many thanks Gents. Keep the suggestions coming.

We have several cats led by a robust 5 year old castrato, they all have grown up with each other and get along together The Boss cat has grown up from a tiny kitten and regards our house as his territory but he is happy to share with the other younger cats.

Our Granddaughter has come back from university bringing her year old femail persian which has grown up without interaction with other cats since sne was a kitten and spending most of her time in granddaughters flat, so she is wary of all humans except granddaughter

Our cats have all tried friendly approaches and been met with hostility, same with humans with the exception of granddaughter.

How can we integrate this hostile stranger? Serious suggestions please.

Maybe I should have said so did I.

Me too

I raised this matter 2 years ago when I went with the boss to the Ampeu to obtain an up to date KR22, the clerk shrugged and said no need. I have obtained 2 extensions since and Immigration (CM) has not commented.

Several Good ones this week.

A soi cat regularly comes to my house to deposit her kittens. On many occasions, on looking under the bonnet before starting, I have found up to 4 kittens cuddled up together inside.

I used to work seasonally for Royal Mail at a sorting office. Many compaies (icluding DWP) outsource their mail to computerised companies. This mail is then run through a Postcode reading machine which checks the amount of postage paid against the destination and, if they do not match rejects the item. At the end of the shift these rejects are collected, sorted and returned to sender, Many of the company computers were not programmed to put any more than UK 2nd class postage on all and could not distinguish the need for extra postage on overseas items. What happened to those returns, I do not know, but I would be surprised to find that there was any mechanism to send them out again with the correct postege.

I have used Firefox as my prefered browser for many years. Today, I tried to stream several videos from Youtube without success. All would immediately go into buffering mode instead of starting. I tried videos from other sources with the same result. I then switched to Opera and they all worked perfectly. What is happening and how can I correct it?

Sorry, next brown envelope.

This will only last until the net brown envelope.

I did several jumps in the early 197s. It was forcefully drummed into us IF THE MAIN SHUTE FAILS TO OPEN PULL THE RESERVE IMMEDIATELY DO NOT FART ABOUT TRING TO OPEN THE MAIN. I never had a shute failure but this man did exactly as he had been trained to do.

Is it a prime opportunity for the Army?

That has been answered by @DrJack54:

 

 

In other words, the income method accepted by immigration involves monthly transfers to a Thai bank. What is irrelevant is how much money you have in UK and how much you get as your pension. 

 

You do mention "Wise.com showing monthly transfers." If those transfers were deposited to a Thai bank, AND they were at least THB 40k in each of the twelve months prior to the EOS application, AND they are coded as a foreign transfer, then a statement from a Thai bank showing all of this information will be accepted as satisfying the financial requirement. 

 

Otherwise, I'm afraid, the other options offered may become relevant in a hurry... 

Thank you Dr Jack , your entry is to the point. I would still like an actual report from somebody who has successfully used that method.

My Krungthai bank record my transfers from UK as XISDT alongside the entry.

These figures do not mention Australia and New Zealand stats. 
we lost many in both Europe and Japan. 

I agree

The options offered are irrelevant thank you. I am enquiring about about what will be accepted as proof of income. My bank can supply a print out of  one years entries showing pension from UK arriving every month, I can also get a printout from Wise.com showing monthly transfers, and my pension administrators supply a yearly statement including tax deductions and a foercast of what they intend to pay to me each month. also UK Tax  authorities supply an annual report of the income and tax for the tax year just ended and an estimate for the coming year. I can supply all these. But I do not want to go to Immigration with a lot of unnecessary paper. Immigration  themselves have only given vague and evasive answers so far.

A report from a member who has obtained an extension by this method recently is what i need.

In Europe, regulations require that power through a cable is cut off as soon as a break is detected. Why not here?

Due to the flood last year I am unlikely to have the ฿400K in account when my extension for Marriage to a Thai citizen expires in a few months. I will therefore have to try using the income method.The proof of income requirement does not state what constitutes proof. Has any member obtained an extension recently using this method?  What documents were required and accepted? I am aware that different each clerk may have her own criteria, Therefore as many many recent experiences as possible are welcome. Please note this applies specifically to Chiangmai Immigration.

These 100 Baht fines all add up.

Why do you want to know?
