  1. Was watching BBC news this morning and in UK people are complaining about lost holidays etc because passports didn't get back to them in time, one lady sent for renewal 7 or 8 weeks before her holiday was due to start and had to cancel the cruise she had booked.

    The office is still claiming there is no backlog !!!!!!.

    As that nice honest lady the Vannesa May said thereis no backlog and we all know she would not lie as she is a good honest tory

  2. True is now giving me the same Thai program on every channel. I was kind of hoping for more.

    undoubtedly the Royal News which airs from 20:00-21:00 every day in Thailand. last night it was across all 70+ channels in our house.

    No books to read then

  3. NBA playoffs, Masterchef Australia finals week and the military jams EVERY channel on True Visions satellite service. Still now a poster screen for the "National Peace and Order Maintaining Council," is broadcast along with old patriotic songs.

    It's really exasperating and frustrating. How long is this going to last, one wonders....

    i'm sure those in command are deeply sorry for disrupting your TV watching schedule this weekend. buy a book.

    who comes to live in a foreign country to sit around and watch television???

    Well oscar you live in a foreign country to sit around and read a book you got it right. We should all do the same as you.

  4. With a little help from the helpful guys on this thread I went to BKK and got through the whole procedure within 10 minutes. Long time traveling from down south for such a short appointment but at least it is now done and dusted.

    Tonight I received an email telling me that they are unable to process the payment from my Bangkok Bank Mastercard. I will go and visit the bank tomorrow to see what the problem is but what is the cheapest way to contact +44 151 471 4302 using my tot fixed line or 121 call on my mobile.

    Cheers

    Was it a world wide Bangkok bank Mastercard

  5. We had the buffet lunch last Sunday at the Holiday Inn, not the cheapest at 800 baht per person but excellent quality and a very wide selection - we'll go back again from time to time but not a regular thing.

    Sundays at the Holiday Inn lunch time. Some weeks are good other weeks very poor, I find the weekday lunch there very good and the seafood dinner friday and saturday good value, but went there two weeks ago on the sunday and found it very poor the food was very badly prepared. But then on the other hand there are people who say the Empress is good each to his own.

  6. Ok. Just for the &$@: of it let's compare FLORIDA to Chiang Mai.

    1) many many houses for $60,000-80,000usd (nice)

    2) real estate taxes $600 per yr.

    3) cars both new and used cheaper. Especially used!

    4) all farang food cheaper. ALL

    5) cable, internet, wi-if cheaper $12 per month land line unlimited $50 per month no contract unlimited cell phone

    6) golf much Cheaper

    7) Duke's menu at a restaurant in Florida cheaper. Steaks, pizza, Mexican!

  7. I can remember when gay meant happy and those that batted for the other side were called teapots.

    Even MORE horrifying for GAY people, dude. coffee1.gif

    with a signature like yours , we cant be sure you wouldnt have enjoyed it ? whistling.gif

    Do you know what gay means in the context of men attracted to men? It's hilarious to me how many straight people think silly things that gay men are into ladyboys or that ladyboys are into gay men. If you think that, you've got it ALL wrong.
