  1. Way back someone on this forum gave me some good advice on what to use as earphone ear cushions. Hair, pigtail elasticated bands. They worked fine. I wish I had bought more. Now I'm told they are out of fashion and unobtainable? I don't want to go to the expense of 'proper ' pads. Any tips on alternatives?

    Meanwhile they expect you to get your bank passbook updated on the same day, with many smaller local bank branches not opening until 10am.  Must have a line update the same day you apply.  No matter that you could clear out the account 10 minutes later.  

    I don't know about marriage visas, but for a retirement visa half of the money must stay in the account for a period of at least three months.

    Thailand has a lot border trade with people on the other side...and these aren't the richest of the society.

    The job of the government is to come along with the neighbors....not warmongering and being terrorists. No matter if the neighbor has a government they don't like.

    Lao is communist dictatorship, Cambodia is not really democratic in Malaysia is the Sharia. Biggest trading partner is China a communist dictatorship, another big partner is USA, the worst warmonger and state terrorist on the planet. Should Thailand be hostile to all of them? Or rather be neutral and do business?

    Play Pontius Pilate do you mean? Or Sergeant Schultz? 'I know nothing'????

    Being issued at land crossings.

    Not issued at airports. 

    You will not need TM6 for extension 

    Be careful! I have one in my passport from three years ago. When extending my retirement visa at Jomtien recently I got taken to task for not making a copy of it, even though I had entered the code. And of course the date of entry in my passport was copied. Another one of the mysteries of the orient? Or an immigration official having a bad day? Which is understandable, considering the pressure they are under at Jomtien.

    Been like that a few years now.

    strange you have never done one at that office or on line

    but was issued a new extension.

     

    Maybe the true meaning of this post.

    Amazing Jomtien immigration stories.

     

    They accepted my Thai driving license as I wrote.

    I've started buying low end Au beef and making my own ground beef. It's pricey at 300thb for 500g, but after you brown the meat for tacos there's no juice or fat in the pan. I'll never buy minced beef again, The little processor I use cost like 400thb and is just right for a pound.

     

    I use the small wheat tortillas at Makro, grill with butter. Great tacos.

    What processor. Pictures please?
