She has an Ed.D from the University of Delaware gained in 2007 at age 55, a doctorate in education, not a Ph.D. It was obtained via a 120 page dissertation with the title: “Student Retention at the Community College: Meeting Students’ Needs.”

Hope they got lots of holiday pics before 18 March, could be some time before they visit Thailand again, if ever. Photo from NZ Herald

Expect at some stage they'll sell their story to the media. Maybe the NZ magazine Women's Day would be interested in the Day brothers version. Maybe they changed their plea to guilty allowing for an out of court settlement, compensation to the police officer involved? A week short of four months in custody, they may have lost a few kgs on the change of diet. Only themselves to blame if they hadn't fled the initial police checkpoint, paid the the no licence fine (presuming that's why they didn't stop?) none of this would have happened.

Organized by Chanthaburi Provincial Office of Commerce I was at the main Chanthaburi bus station two weeks ago noted there's now a marked counter there for minivan service to Ban Laem (via Pong Nam Ron); used to be over the river near Robinsons, then at the second bus station one block from the main one. Long time ago I took it once, entertaining in its way with multiple stops picking up people with their sales items to take to the market, returning with people loaded with things they'd bought, including one person with two chickens in a box. All part of the fun.

Just my own experience, and helpful staff/service at TA. I brought back a triathlon bike from storage in NZ, Thai Airways Auckland - Bangkok. Only had a small carry-on bag they counted the bike as check-in luggage well under the 32kg allowance, cost me zero extra. Had contacted them beforehand and was emailed a pdf (in English) detailing preferred packing methods, what to remove etc. Bike arrived on normal luggage carousel at Suvarnabhumi, undamaged. One question before exit 'was it new or used?' and away I went.

Saw this Lambretta G350 in Chanthaburi on Friday (that's a 300 behind it) then on Saturday stopped in Klaeng (Rayong) seven Lambrettas on a day ride stopped at Banta Cafe. At Banta Cafe (in Shell Station at Klaeng) theres a few old vehicles, two US yellow schoolbuses converted to diners, and this lengthened Vespa on display, just how many could fit on that?

Click 160 ABS bought December 2023, 4600km so far including two 380km trips, one of 160km. No problems, one puncture though can't blame the bike for that. It's a scooter and does what i expect of a scooter. Bought to replace the Fino that won't die (now almost 98,000km) for daughter's travel to uni each day 12km each way, but so far she prefers the Fino as finds the Click too bulky, harder to manoeuvre. Thinking of a Scoopy or Giorno for her when the Fino finally passes away (if ever).

Mr. Davis raised his hands to apologize to Tum at the Udon Thani City Police Station on May 24, 2024. UDON THANI – A 44-year-old British national apologized to a gas station attendant whom he had punched two days ago as he was too drunk. Mr. Davis explained that he was a former mercenary from the United Kingdom and had moved to Thailand 22 years ago to start a family and had an 18-year-old daughter with his Thai wife. He admitted to acting irrationally due to personal and family problems and regularly taking sleeping pills or tranquilizers. The Udon Thani Immigration Department documented Mr. Davis’ criminal record, as this was his first offense. Given his previous assistance to the Immigration Department on Koh Samui and his remorse, he was warned that any further misconduct could result in the revocation of his visa and a ban from re-entering Thailand.

Kites at Laem Sing beach, Chanthaburi 22 May 2024 Eastern Thailand: Chachoengsao, Chanthaburi, Chonburi, Prachin Buri, Rayong, Sa Kaeo, Trat

Extra value in our province Chanthaburi where Immigration do not issue residency letters - they refer applicants to their embassy. Saved me another trip to Bangkok, DLT took copies of card and yellow book. But as others have mentioned, different rule interpretation in different provinces.

Maybe it's you? Used recently - since December - for two new driver licences, new bank account with Kasikorn, and to purchase a new vehicle. Had a fuel pump fail when away from home, left bike with a repair place, they didn't do rentals but another shop did and accepted pink card to allow me to hire a bike for two days. Required for competition sports events I enter, and again to prove ID when I'd won a prize. Hotels accept it as ID. Was simple to obtain after I got my yellow house book, just a few minutes in the same office, fingerprints and another photo, 60 baht fee.

Any rain welcome in Chanthaburi, our area surrounded by durian and fruit orchards, for months we've had six cloud-seeding rainmaking aircraft buzzing the skies in search of the right clouds. And the last week of distant thunder, clouds pass us by to go inland and east. 7.16am this morning at the temple, and light rain, still falling now near 9am. Need a lot more, but it's a start.

Yesterday at Central Chanthaburi I politely 'gave way' to a lady wheeling a covered pushchair, thought I should acknowledge the baby . . . looked down and it was a pointy-eared French bulldog

Since she's revealed her claimed African ancestry, surely she gets the crown as the best Nigerian scammer ever? Move over Nigerian Princes, the Princess has joined the room.

The 'Chanthaburi 10' fun run Sunday 12 May 2024, 5.50am start for the 10km event; course follows the Bhakti Rambhai canal, background is the hills of Namtok Phliu National Park

Here again today for my latest 90-day; I was first one here for 8.30am opening, on the motorbike heading away at 8.34am. Small delay as I was asked to pose for a photo by the IO - today's happy foreigner! New process since last time - TM47, IO put my passport into a reader, checked address the same, and 'print' received a receipt showing name, dates etc. Built 1911, now a protected heritage building

The recreation and gardens area at Central Chanthaburi, waited here yesterday while daughter was at the book fair in the exhibition hall - 'one hour' she said . . .became over 90 minutes.

10km road running event this morning on the east side of Chanthaburi city, didn't need assistance from the mobile medics.

There are 13 days protected by law for all employees. Government employees get minimum 19, plus recently these 'special holidays' that come out of a magician's hat Depends what country you are from in terms of comparison. New Zealand: 11 public holidays, work on one and you get overtime rates plus an additional day's annual leave. Minimum 20 days paid annual leave per year, most companies increase this to 25 after five or seven years service, or in the case of my last employer there, 25 is the starting allowance for new employees. 36 paid total, add on minimum 10 sick (many companies higher or unlimited) - think that's more than Thai employment contracts.

They didn't plug - that's what I expected as I've seen them used on tubeless bike (the pedal type) tyres. The tyre was removed and a patch repair put on the inside. 300b, turns out the pickup service was free as I'd bought the bike off them only six months ago. Didn't get to see what they removed, usually get it presented to me at bill-payment time as 'proof' (like the dentist offering me my extracted tooth last month) Life's full of surprises.
