i looked in Phetchabun macro, didn't see any IPA, I'll try Phitsanaluk when I go over there. i used to buy it in Kp Phangan, most of the 7/11s have it there. i brought some with me but not enough. thanks

tops has a few but they can order more for me, thanks

is there a tops in Phitsanuluk? not coming up on google maps? Fortune doesn't have a beer shop, my wife just called oh, just found tops central, will call

I'm looking for good beer, I'm in Lom Sak right now. any ideas where i can find snowy IPA or full moon summer lay IPA? thanks

i love full moon brewworks IPA (the yellow can, Summer Lay, Fin Fin IPA, not the low carb one), any idea where to find in bulk at a lower price? i assume villa market has it, but they overcharge everything. I'm heading up north to a good beer desert and need to stock up before i go. thanks

very interesting, i had no idea, i just called one and it sounds very possible

i have some business i need to take care of in the US, this isn't simply about extending my visa.

i guess the answer to my question will be "depends on the immigration officer i happen to get at the arrival desk" but i just worked out a plan which i think will work. i take a cheap one way to singapore, united has a super cheap non stop return to SFO right now, i get back to SIN, then i fly to Laos (i don't want to wait around in singapore), take a holiday in Laos with my wife who is up there near the border anyhow, get a tourist visa in Laos (3-4 days) and come back to thailand.

i'm in thailand now, no visa (visa exempt), US passport, been here 70 days or so, i'm currently on a 30 day extension. my return ticket to the US is Mar 17th. i'd like to go to the US soon then come back here after only 3-4 days in the US. i don't want to wait around 15 days or so to get a tourist visa. i know there is a general "rule" about back to back thailand entries to discourage border runs to neighbouring countries in SE Asia but what about returning to my home country? Also, i'm married to a Thai, and i can show i have a return ticket to the US on Mar 17th do you think they would let me in if i came back without a visa after only 3-4 days gone? thanks

i'm driving up there in a couple of weeks, i'll be driving in the left shoulder!

my wife just called Surat immigration and they confirmed i can get a 60 day extension, just need to bring marriage certificate, tabien baan and id card. no bank balance requirement. so although i do like the idea of a Lao trip, this sounds far easier.

since the extension i would be applying for is "visiting a thai spouse", would it be better to say my wife is living here and not with me in the US? (she has a green card but i know no reason why thai immigration would know that)

sounds good, but i think my first choice is extend here if i can. if not, i'll definitely do that

ok, thanks, so would it work i apply online as soon as i cross the border, then hang out in Vientiane to pay, then go travel around until my visa is approved?

i need to apply after i enter Lao right? so I guess i apply then go to the embassy/consulate to pay the next day right? is that how it works?
