    Well said.

    Go in person to the Labour office. You may just be pleasantly surprised. You will get nowhere unless you get involved in person. Letters, emails etc are a waste of time in this situation.

    Ask immigration well before the date you must apply. I think you will need a bank book.

    I intend to die at home whatever is killing me.

    I would be searching for people who love animals to look after my dogs, cats, chickens etc. after I am gone. If health allowed I would also have a couple of nights out on the town in Bangkok.

    One of the most pathetic posts I have ever read on these pages. Thais/Siamese are generally a helpful bunch, particularly where illness is concerned, a good example of what you call Thainess stands for. And, by the way, don't shout and lose your temper with any Thai. You will come off worst if you do. Perhaps you should consider living somewhere else.

    Half a million what ? If half a million Thai baht that doesn't amount to much against most other currencies.

    I don't believe a word of it. Just another bar owner who has not doshed enough tea money to the RTP. Both shameful and pathetic at one and the same time.

    Sad beyond belief. Utterly disgusting treatment of an animal by utterly disgusting people. Shameful that nobody here cares.

    Jeremy Hunt backs China against Taiwan. Very disappointing that you say you are a Hunt supporter.

    Words fail me other than to say this was an utterly disgusting act. RIP old lady. So sad you died in this horrible way.

    Bernie is a good bloke. Made his money through smart but fair business deals. A bit harsh to suggest he is remotely similar to Prawit dont you think ?

    A rotten way to treat children in your care. Sentence is harsh but justified in my opinion. Be good to see equally harsh sentences for rape and murder which, for some reason which is beyond me, get treated more leniently here in Thailand.

    Very difficult to make any recommendation to someone you don't know, and whose issues are unclear. I had a friend who had a nervous breakdown and went to Nepal for several months. He came back feeling much better. I have lost contact with him now but Nepal it certainly helped in his case.

    Not sure if you're correct in saying you can be 7 days late when reporting in person. In my experience you will be fined even if only 1 day late.

    Sad story. RIP.
  17. Thingamabob
    Utterly pathetic mayor and police. Time to grow up, but I fear that's never going to happen. Most Thai people are brought up to be pemanently childish

    Probably best to avoid buying online if at all possible. Personally I have always had good service from all the main superstores, including Makro, when returning an item due to it being faulty in some way.

    Extension based on retirement much easier than extensiom based on marriage. No need whatsoever for pay an agent unless, that is, you're too idle or too scared to do it yourself.
  20. Thingamabob
    Phue Thai are a waste of time at the moment. Come up with some sensible policy objectives and people may just listen.
  21. Thingamabob
    Best to wear masks dare I say.
  22. Thingamabob
    Chonlanon/Pheu Thai are wasting their time if they think legal action in this case is going anywhere. A focus on meth, guns and knives would be far more worthwhile.
  23. Thingamabob
    Srisuwan has made some very fair protests over the years, but this last one against the comedian seems pointless. Must have been a personal issue I guess.
  24. Thingamabob
    What is the cost of an LTR ?
  25. Thingamabob
    My local 7/11 only take cash. It takes time for even a small queue at the till to be served, but best not to get upset about it. Patience is a virtue, especially in Thailand.
