There are no Immigrations agents on Samui.

Basically you can't change non immigrant visa class within Thailand .

You can only change reason for extension of stay.

If you're planning to seek extension of stay based on marriage or family you can do it yourself.

If you want to change to retirement extension based on non-O instead of non-OA to avoid the insurance requirement, you can't do it.

 

Cheers.

I vote no until the racist dual price policy is scrapped.

Hi folks, am looking for a decent agent to assist my looking into changing my nonO-A visa to a nonO.

thanks.

He will be in power as long as he wants.

Ringworm, just go to the pharmacy and show either the area or a pic and you will get a topical steroid to use, gone in about 10 days.

If you have to ask these questions, I strongly recommend you do not DIY! Find and/or pay someone at least  knowledgeable and experienced, and preferably qualified.

Agreed. Nobody has brought up the elephant in the room.

What ampacity is the current box, what ampacity are the conductors serving the box. If you overload the ratings of the conductors you could end up burning the entire affair to the ground.

Hi folks, wanting to start a herb garden but having a hard time finding oregano, parsley and the like. Got some dill and basil at Makro but cant find anything else…..any ideas?

Im not an expert but I did read the waters around Thailand are to shallow for a sub to be effective 

True for the gulf which has a depth of about 80 meters max so they would be confined to the deep waters on the Andaman side.

Hi folks, does anyone know how to dispose of used motor oil on Samui, does anyone recycle it or collect it?

Cheers

Went today. Am just on a retirement visa so no pink card or wp. Got a bit of a runaround but finally registered as an over 60 with medical condition. Did not get an appointment but was told just to show up on the 7th.

I cant figure this <deleted> out.

Hi folks, live on Samui and bored, bored, bored but a buddy found a great riding road east to west so was wondering if there is even anything open in Khaolak these days! 
Dont need much, cheap hotel, restaurant that wont kill me and somewhere for a drink or twelve.

Any, and I mean any, info would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks and stay safe all.

As a bike rider I find this somewhat disconcerting. Why make bikes 10kph slower than the massive chunks of metal which surround them? Much safer if the big bikes can move at the flow of traffic and not someone assuming everyone is doing ‘110kph”.

Do these dingbats actually use their brains....oh....hang on.....sorry about that folks. My bad.

Kawasaki W800. Classic looks, easy to maintain and well suited to two up riding. Good used bikes are reasonable at around 200,000thb.

Hey troops, now that the restrictions have been lifted a mate and I are contemplating a bike trip to Phuket. Any input on where to stay would be great. We know Patong is toast but we are looking for decent (burgers and ribs) but not extravagant dining, moderate nightlife (just a couple of decent fun bars) and hopefully a Lucky13 as their passionfruit mojitos are the stuff of legend.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Ok...Patong is out and going to give Kamala a try. Having never been there am a little in the dark for accommodations.

Looking for a place close to restaurants and bars with secure parking for the motorbikes. Looking around 700-800 per night.

Any and all recommendations will be truly appreciated.

Cheers!

there's a few places on the beach road that have sea view rooms,  around 1,000 baht/night

some even have pools. There also places on the main road for around 600.

Kamala downtown area is easily walk-able and close to the bars, which are mainly on the main road

Just show up and look around, wont take ya but 15 minutes to get what ya want

 

The only resorts i see doing good business are the novotel and intercontinental on the beach with the hi so thai's

Thanks, any specifics would be great. No views needed so yes...cheap, cheap, cheap!

Ok...you guys got me.

Might reroute to Kamala, looking for a hotel, reasonable price(probably just passing out there anyway) with secure parking for the bikes close to bars and restaurants.

All recommendations appreciated.

Cheers

Hi folks, Samui resident here heading over for a bike trip next month and need to pick locals taste buds.

Last trip over there were still a couple of my favorites open but Naughty Nuris has moved and Lucky13 is closed so was wondering if anyone has any recommendations around Patong.

Thanks in advance troops.

One thing to remember is to always retain a copy of the bill of sale. If you sell a vehicle and the new owner never transfers the blue/green book then all fees and tickets will automatically revert to you. If you have a signed bill of sale then you are off the hook.

Just my two satang worth here but try this.
Tell her you want to buy her something special and offer to take her to a high end makeup place and let her try products and decide on what she wants.
It will show her you care about her and her opinion.
Might be worth a go.

Does anyone know the extent of the alcohol sales ban for the upcoming royal cremation?

Just asking because trying to plan a bike trip with a buddy and would hate to end up in Phuket with the booze taps turned off!

Thanks in advance.
