Yes as you will only get an extension till your passport runs out. I had to renew mine 9mths before it ran out to get the full 12mths extension.

I've been picking games up on CCtv5+ courtesy of the CCP! But Express VPN plus BBC Iplayer gets me an English commentary

I'm reading more in Thailand than ever before. I have the time to do it!

Booked LHR-BKK-LHR Thai Inter in mid Jan for my sons. Looked everywhere but couldn't get less than 1000gbp. Something to do with an unnecessary bloody war between former USSR neighbours stirred up by a rogue KGB agent!

Forget choosing your seats-we booked 3 in a row for our family and I was unceremoniously bumped from an aisle to a window seat on the other side of the plane because I found a supposedly sick man in my seat-never fly Eva again!

I have the Wise bank account including the debit card in case my UK bank closes my account. Still do normal FX through Wise as they offer the lowest fee and highest exchange rate. Would only use my Wise debit card in emergency!

BREXIT! All the outcomes predicted by Tory Brexiteers have failed to materialise! All the time and money spent on getting in then getting out wasted! Cameron May Johnson Truss and now Sunak all guilty of putting ambition before country. They didn't even have the nouse to stay in the free trade zone to avoid the NI problem and dissolution of the 'United' Kingdom! We need Starmer to commit to an early referendum on rejoining!

Much more concerned that Tipmanee Pattaya has stopped showing EPL! Happily watching all EPL matches and suddenly they stopped showing them. Channels previously showing every game now showing soaps, badmington, ladies golf and other assorted rubbish. What's happened? EPL much better than World Cup!

CDs don't work at all. Eventually pigeons will break through netting. If building unnocupied they will even break windows. Need to make them very uncomfortable. Asian cuckoos Koel will steal and replace their eggs. BB guns upset Thai Bhudists!

All of a sudden Tipmanee Cable has stopped broadcasting the EPL? Have been watching their extensive coverage of live matches for several years so surprised their sports channels have now changed to minority sports and strange soaps? Anything to do with upcoming World Cup?

Internal ac will leak if not cleaned every 6mths-pipe blocks and condensate cannot get away. Always check that condensate is dripping outside. 500bht to clean otherwise. Tenants responsibility as you are using the ac and it's your dust and dirt blocking the drainage channel.

No!

Questions related to retirement visa.

Decent agent only needs passport for 2days not 3weeks -
Use agent-Pattaya Klang Driving School next to DLT

SW monsoon finished and NE winds blow pollution in from China. Air so thick you can't see the clouds. Torrential downpours appear out of nowhere but can't wash the particles away.

Import tax customs duty runaround from an item purchased from Amazon
chilly07 replied to dhupverg's topic in General Topics
You are lucky! My experience of Customs and DHL was that the cost of the item ordered tripled when it reached them in Thailand. I told them to return to sender and got a full refund through Visa. Purchased a similar item in Thailand for a fraction of the price! Moral is when in Thailand Bye Thai! -
I too have changed from 8yrs of self inflicted marriage extensions to agent procured retirement partly due to mobility problems at immigration bank amphur and covid based access controls in the heat and partly because the year long planning and preparation stress me and my wife more each year. Yes it is expensive but if you add up all the consequencial costs of annual preparedness it's well worthwhile
