  1. how are you going to prove the financial requirement for the yearly extension based on marriage (400,000thb in a Thai bank account in your name only) just apply for the single entry non immigrant visa with the £1,000 proof, see if they issue it, you could enter on a visa exempt entry and than convert to non immigrant 'O' visa once in Thailand,( 400,000thb in bank account on day of application only) then do the yearly extension.( 400,000thb in bank account for 2 months prior to application) proof of flight out of Thailand within the entry stamp validity may be required by your airline. a trip to Savannakhet to obtain a non imm visa with no financial requirements is possible either single or multi entry.
  2. i have watched the movie in English so its on the web somewhere, i think from the link posted by keith above
  3. i hope it thins out the amount that get granted asylum, like 100%
  4. what beans does she buy and from where, many thanks
  5. ''the engine and the chassis numbers not matching what was registered.'' so the wrong number plates on the vehicle, do not tally with the vin number the vin number will show what year it was built
  6. yes
  7. and the post office, op shop around
  8. i would go for the Toyota veloz, the veloz is 15mm higher than the brv, the brv is 15mm longer and 5mm wider, at 100,000thb +, its more epensive than the veloz, the Veloz offers more cabin space and headroom due to its longer wheelbase and taller height.
  9. you need to be married to apply for a non imm 'O' visa, so enter on a visa exempt, obtain a 30 day extension, if required to get 400,000thbin bank account in Thailand in your name only, get married, then convert visa exempt to non imm 'O' visa 2,200thb, no need for a tourist visa, but will need a throwaway flight out to allow boarding of a one way ticket.
  10. do a NI check, it seems you have some NI years missing maybe they are saying you have 30 years, instead of the required 35 for maximum pension
  11. how many years NI are they showing for you, at what age will you be when you pension is due 66+ some months?
  12. no, It predicts if you pay the years until retirement age
  13. it's a nissan NV, the later models come with auto transmission, but will be about 20 years old, newer auto trucks tend to be the 4 door model, but there are some 2 door with open cab. smart cab etc with auto transmission, have a look on facebook market place,
  14. the maximum with 35 years of NI contributions after April 2023 will be about £10,000 a year, it works out roughly to £5.50 per week for each year of NI contributions you have, ie - so 30 years would be 30x£5.50 = £165 per week, can you buy some extra years to increase the weekly some, before claiming. they should send you a letter some 3 or 4 months before your pension is due, this letter includes an invitation code, which makes the online process simpler. see here - https://www.gov.uk/get-state-pension
  15. no in person visits are required, both can be done by other people
  16. by way of a comparison what do you think a return trip in economy Bkk/Uk/Bkk was per adult back in 2019 or 2020, (i was travelling the reverse of that journey i paid £800 ish with eva air PE Lhr/Bkk/Lhr), i have looked at Utp/Stn/Utp for June at 30,000thb but long stop overs, but Utp/Bhx/UTp comes in at 39,100thb
  17. you can own a vehicle in your name in Thailand, compulsory insurance is required when a new yearly 'screen' tax disc is applied for, additional better coverage insurance, class 1,2 or 3 is obtained through insurance brokers or insurance companies direct, if buying a new vehicle the 1st year additional insurance is 'thrown in' with the purchase, also included in a new car purchase is the first years 'screen' tax as well as compulsory insurance, and number plates.
  18. this issue will be with us forever on AN, the you need an international permit group and the you don't need an IP group, its best to keep away from the subject
  19. as others have posted maybe the hard drive has failed, need to check in the bios, if so a new one is required, and a fresh install of W8, or if you have a back ip , use that. or try and recover any data you need and buy a new or a 2nd hand computer, with at least windows 10, but ideally if new W11. use 'classic start menu' to make it operate like W7, windows 8 was never any good.
  20. as the vehicle is only 3 years old, then should you not be getting it serviced at Toyota to maintain is warranty
  21. same in Thailand, the problem is most tourists do not have a home country motorbike licence, so no licence to cover them in Thailand, also going by the accidents for tourists in Phuket, no experience on motorcycles either, look at that girl the other day she lost control, why wa she not in full control of the bike at all times, lack of experience maybe.
