  1. In honor of all Brit gold medal athletes.
  2. This relates to my previous statement about Migration Legislation not applying to citizens. A citizen of a country cannot obtain a visa to their own country because there is no legal basis for one to be issued. They are a citizen entitled to automatic entry. Yes, I know some dual citizens may have been issued with a visa for their own country in their alternate passport, but it shouldn't have been possible. If presented on arrival at their own country the correct outcome should be cancellation of the visa and automatic entry as a citizen.
  3. Familiarize yourself with this before making uninformed statements: Passport 6 Month Rule in 2022 - Passport Validity Requirements (visaguide.world) Anyone who arrives at their own country of citizenship must be allowed entry (any decisions otherwise can only be made in exceptional circumstances at the highest ministerial level). Legislation such as Migration Acts are about the entry and stay of aliens into a country, They do not apply to their own citizens.
  4. A proven citizen of any country will not (normally) be refused entry even if the passport is expired. The difficulty would be with the airline who would refuse uplift unless the destination country gave it authority to do so.
  5. Interesting to see Indonesia ranked 2nd and NZ ranked 2nd last.
  6. Mass shootings in Thailand have little resemblance to that in the US. Yes, there are far too many shootings here, but they are mainly domestic, road rage or drug or gang related. The only one I can think of that follows the American model is the soldier who killed about 16 in a Korat department store a few years back. (mentioned in the article) Another attention seeker looking for a step up the ladder by sensationalizing something unnecessarily.
  7. Scrolling through the forum looking for, and failing to find, stimulating, interesting or informative threads to try to revive my mental fatigue. All I'm finding is cut meats from an English teacher with bad grammar.
  8. I think we've hit a new low on inane subject matter.
  9. I had to sign some documents for a company in Australia recently. It was done electronically using a system called DocuSign. (.com) It was legally binding, and may be another way to have your signature accepted without finding someone in Thailand to notarize it.
  10. Therein lies the conundrum!
  11. Except at the Immigration Offices that will want it!
  12. There are always those who oppose inevitable progress:
  13. Is my 10 year ban from that World Cup comp still ongoing?
  14. I gave up explanations for the terminally confused on this forum years ago.
  15. If you were coming monthly it could be different.
  16. They exist everywhere and are for wheelchair access and similar.
  17. unblocktheplane t Amazing how a misplaced t can change the message.
  18. If you Got to take a sword to a nightclub it's Odd's job to to bowl you over.
  19. My German Shepherd cross doesn't understand a word of German, but does sit when told in English or Thai. He is friendly with a neighbor's dog, who visits often, a Thai Ridgeback. He's friendly to me, but has no interest in any commands I give him in English.
  20. Yes, lucky there are so many homicide detectives and coroners available on the scene.
  21. That's what Trump is doing: Trump defends hosting Saudi-backed LIV Golf tour amid backlash from 9/11 families - CBS News
  22. Facts (alternates?) are not a strong point for some. Apart from not knowing what a recession is, you don't seem to know the difference between an arms dealer and a drug dealer/user. The irony with the Bout case is that the US convicted him on charges related to conspiracy to provide war weapons to a neighboring country that could be used to kill Americans in that country. (DEA agents). He's been in prison for ten years, you would think the US would be happen to be rid of him to free their own. The basketball player should feel fortunate she is so tall. If she had to rely on her brains to make a living she would come up well short.
  23. In December, when the sun is positioned somewhere over Australia, for me the sun sets closer to the south-west rather than directly west. Distance, the changes in it's axis and curvature of the earth make a little difference to the hard and fast rule of East and West. My advice, considering It's going to be hot for long periods where ever you live in Thailand, is to plant grass and shade trees around the house and build large eaves in the areas you have most windows and doors. Mine are 2 meters wide on the sides closest to North and South.
