If we're not happy its Mung-you ( impolite) Goo - I (impolite)
Normal -Chan /Phom (I), Kuhn ( you)
Soppy - Teerak Jah
Grovelling - I call her Kuhnying.
Then theres the distinctly insulting-EE hah / Bok Hah
Normally I would just call her by her name ??? the same as she calls me by my name.
some times as a joke I say khunying and she calls me khunshai.
or dahk ling (a corruption of darling) but oddly very similar to the Thai for a monkeys red arse after calling her that sometimes I need to use the Soppy/grovelling -Teerak
or maybe warn jai- sweet heart.
But I am told the best would be Toon huar kong pom
means something like my princess.
I don't dare use the hah - sut - sonteen - mung words
she might get ideas that the ducks need feeding

ISDN is a digital line 128Kb download 64Kb upload (invented by BT in England) but it is not ADSL which is the modern succesor
ISDN in Ubon would probably be the best bet as I doubt ADSL has reached there yet, still waiting for it in Pattaya
and it's still very expensive.
I am using Non stop cafe 56k dial up from JI-net.com and can keep the line open for 13 hours or more at a time for just 3 baht.

The ID card won't really help much. If she has been married
legally and signed papers at the ampur office then she is supposed to change the name on her ID card.
It used to be that she had to take her husbands surname but I think they changed that law now.
Any way she changes from a Miss (narng sow) to a Mrs (narng) this will show if she has been married legally in the past but does not mean that she is married now.
Also she may be unofficially married ???
just a village ceremony as happens very often in the sticks, with no need to sign any papers and no need to change the ID card but she will still be considered very much married in her village and to her huband but not in the eyes of the law.
how do I post a jpg file here
I want to put Miss and Mrs in thai for you to compare.

I just this morning got my multiple O visa from Hull.
They did not answer my E-mail so I phoned instead.
very fast service by post but it was 60 quid + P&P ???

I went to the border at Aranyaprathet in May (last month)
they gave me a one month Visa there and then

Ahhh thank you croftrobin, Surin would be a bit out of the way for me in Chonburi.
Still might be worth the extra distance to avoid the beggars and touts at Aranyaprathet.

Please excuse my ignorance

Say's that
8. If an alien is the supporter, he must submit financial evidence, proof of employment, work permit and tax receipts.
Now what if the supporter is the Thai, do they still have to supply proof of income ?

I am using Ji-net too.. I am mostly happy with the service and speed for a 56k modem.
but the billing people there have made a big mess up and are trying to charge me over 5000 baht for an account I have not used
