  1. Am i reading that right? You can refuse entry and refuse to allow evidence to be taken?????
  2. weekend alcoholic + weed. Going dry for a while after last weekend led to a 2/3 day hangover.
  3. I took my 15 yr old son to the uK without his Mum. I tend to play safe rather than be sorry so I got an official letter from the town hall place where he is registered. It s a standard letter and costs 1000bt - Mum needs to be there as well i believe. I also took his birth certs with my name as Father and got an informal letter from my wife giving her permission with her ID details on it. My sons first Thai and UK passport, first time using them so was expecting to be stopped and asked. But nothing- we waltzed merrily through security with no problems or questions.
  4. Naive but i do feel for her. My wife got a call similar to this, the caller saying that they, "the police, had intercepted a parcel addressed to her that upon inspection contained heroin. Mrs Nik duly reacted very angrily - "i want my drugs - send my drugs now or pay for them". Whoever thay were, they hung up!!
  5. I had a double hernia operation using a mesh at a government hospital in Bangkok. I was in for 2 nights, it cost 29 000 bt and used a mesh. Not a wonderful experience as i was in a ward but not too bad really. I have the scars but again, not too bad. i recovered well enough and was back at work in a week, albeit, walking a bit slower. If i required another surgery , i would consult the same hospital.
  6. Booking.com - I think they gave incorrect details (date of birth) to the airline so i couldnt check in initially online. etihad help line sorted it. I arrived early at the airport just in case of problems and got bumped to an earlier flight. They were very helpful.
  7. Flew to Heathrow from Bangkok with my son recently for a two week holiday to see family and friends. I had some initial problems when using the E – check in service. The website would not take my sons details and after ringing the Etihad helpline they found it to be a problem with the booking service I had used and they sorted it. I really have no complaints. All was good. Im a tall bas***d and worried about leg room in economy. But it was quite spacious. In flight entertainment was good – I watched “The whale” and the “Elvis” movies. Food was – well – airline food. But it wasn’t too bad. I also asked for a good few drinks and was given, no problem. All in all, it was a good first flight for my son. He had a fantastic time. I would cheerfully use them again.
  8. It s a bity of a grey area. According to the letter of the law, this may be correct. but as ITV are not functioning as a media company , it cant be used for self promotion. Just my opinion, but especially, considering Prayut aligned himself with the likes of Prawit (watches) and an international heroin trafficker, it would hardly be in the spirit of the law to ban him.
