  1. Eva from experience is one of the best carriers for economy passengers and one of very few that I wouldnt stress over middle seats should it be assigned I've still only once (on BA staff travel) not sat in my preferred aisle seat back in the 90's Multiple times I've been assigned the dreaded window seat on many airlines and yet at check in no problem to change to aisle even though "greyed out" at online check in
  2. Would these stupid passengers have preferred the plane to take off with just one engine Aircraft go tech 24/7 worldwide Ludicrous article
  3. Sterling hasnt changed that I can see It did make the point recently that people should click on Wises own "comparison" results for live quotations elsewhere Moneygram and Western Union very surprisingly come out marginally better on bottom line on many occasions
  4. Couldnt agree more. People moaning when its hot (its not that hot either) if you live where its cold(er) and wetter half the time you'd soon see how well off you/we are
  5. Nailed it completely If you were that desperate you need to stay within your own country as sooner or later the shight will hit the fan financially

    The heat

    Not hot enough... You people are peasants. 40c at night is required. I need double duvets at 35c and have to turn the heating on. 🚀🚀
  7. Perfect example of my "dont burn your bridges" phrase I use so much as regards homeland Having had cancer myself in the bladder I know only too well the symptoms and whilst I've had very minor scares since 2002 its nor reoccured per se The first real signs that it had then it would be that one ticket home Emailing my Doctors practice of which I've kept on the patient list (by way of tactical communication yearly) The issue of self insurance becomes a problem if a biggie hits. The stroke. the heart attack or Trauma ( eg road accident) If you're in a coma who authorises getting for example 1 million for starters out of your bank account if you are single ??
  8. Its got to be a wait and see scenario I suspect at some point the Thais will realise that its unworkable in practice but we'll see
  9. What the hell is all that gubbins about.....
  10. Clearly I wasnt joking and had referred to a site which I had assumed was accurate I agree having double that amount is actually huge
  11. No I wasn't whatsoever I'm tall and on odd occasions when I've been uncomfortable I will go and stand at the back for long stretches In fact if you had done that its highly likely the flight crew sooner or later would have asked you why at which point you could have strongly made the point it was impossible to sit in the seat because of the air con. Speak nicely enough and they'll find you a seat rest assured "full" flight or otherwise
  12. Why didnt you just go stand at the back instead then instead of freezing !!
  13. This bit is quite clear on the face of it ??
  14. lol i clearly said Condo but point taken Surely its always best not to get any potential grief in the first place
  15. Those that preach dont automatically pay the last 2 months rent would leave me to think whats happens if the landlord gets the right hump and I come back from the beach one day to find all my gear in the Condo corridor Am talking out aloud....Maybe others agree or perhaps not ??
  16. Yep likewise if I use Laptop (instead off app) it sends a notification saying tap on icon within app to verify its yourself logging in Its not a SMS per se though
  17. On an aside and already in the uk and having always said I would never leave completely to live in Thailand I can categorically say my opinion is changing/changed I cant put up with this shight much longer. Absolutely everything is broken
  18. Questions get asked simply to ascertain just in case an audit is ever required (say for suspected money laundering) and to see the answers that were supplied
  19. lol dont be so stupid !! If course its stopped if a life certificate is not returned and the recipient is considered dead but that is a totally different issue to an ongoing pension being sanctioned or stopped perhaps for over payments. Try harder fella
  20. I've had 2 and both times they were one way tickets uploaded
  21. Fair old trip by road susprised to see it was 539 kms
  22. Out of interest I had reason to ask lets say our delightful Police force how they "knew" I had been on a flight arriving from Abu Dhabi to Heathrow when I had reception committee lol at the airport some years ago Bantering in the car back to Heathrow Central Station the Police (on this occasion is was a minor issue quickly sorted) guy said 2 things happen when arrest warrants are put in place. 1) Whats the registered Home address (obviously) but 2) before they go there does the person have a passport and "is it in use" currently Once point 2 is established as a yes a marker is put on the passport and as soon as you check in a red flag is waved and our wonderful Police organise a reception on the plane lol Not my finest hour on Etihad lol
  23. Post of the thread and hopefully a few heads have been finally wobbled as reagrds their own naivety
  24. That photograph is "meant" to be a passport style image On the two applications I did it came up on screen as I uploaded it "meets passport requirements" (or very simiilar words) As regards accomodation I just copied and pasted airbnb address (translated from thai to English) The embassy wont reject outright the visa application but doubtless can ask for clarity on something else uploaded or missed out completely Several guys in the early days noted that if you write anything in a particular section the application at least gets uploaded anyway
