  1. Milk the other cow and feed the calf from the bucket. If it will not drink from the bucket, use a baby's bottle frequently until it can. I saw this done as a wee boy in Ayrshire (well known Dairying county.)
  2. I have done 7 extensions at Chiang mai and never had my funds checked after the issue of the "under consideration" stamp. I was once told that I had to produce an updated bankbook on getting my extension stamp at the end of the "under consideration" period, but on turning up with the bankbook and printed copies, the official dismissed them with the question "what are these for?"
  3. Old news. They've have been "closing in" for a week now.
  4. I did my last report on line 4 days before the expiry date and received an acknowledgement almost immediately. 6 days later it was still pending and since I was going into the city anyway I submitted a form at the drive-through window and got it processed immediately. 2 days later ie. 4 days after the expiry I received a rejection EMail, "Already Submitted".
  5. Is there anybody in Chiang mai area?
  6. Out of Date! The report shows temperatures etc to 25th, today is the 27th.
  7. It seems like only yesterday, all government offices, including Post Offices banned everybody from bringing Durian into their premisses.
  8. Thank you, details are sketchy at present. Keep the suggestions coming please.
  9. Depleted Uranium is just that . Negligible radio activity. It is , however, just like all heavy metals, including lead, toxic. i.e. poisonous.
  10. Later this year,my granddaughter is being sent by her university to UK for a 4 month "placement". I am out of touch with costs there and I am guessing she will need about 700 per month. Would any member still resident in UK or a recent visitor please advise me?
  11. Add in the weekend and an extra day to compensate for the Saturday.
  12. I speak to them in Gaelic or Urdu, it annoys them and they hang up immediately.
  13. You do not need an agent. Take the papers provided by the person who officiates at the marriage to the Ampeu office and do it yourself. The staff will find an English speaker who will guide you,
  14. "the photo-copy booth downstairs has been doing a roaring trade" There is the real reason for the change, extorting more money.
  15. A waste of time. The DUP is led by a group of bigots who will never accept a catholic First Minister.
  16. You can apply to UK embassy for a letter requesting the transfer. https://www.contact-embassy.service.gov.uk/Enquiry/?enquirytext=Transfer of Stamps to new Passport&country=Thailand&post=British Embassy Bangkok Be prepared for a long wait and two or three irrelevant replies, it took me three messages and 5 weeks before I finally penetrated their brains.
  17. It was Santa testing his newest sleigh.
