  1. Thought they should also be made aware of the problems. Also contacted HMPO with about eight emails. Just went round in circles.
  2. Haha, thought all that was gone. You can't keep a good Chinaman down.
  3. I did contact the British embassy in Bangkok, but got no reply. I did contact the British embassy in Bangkok, but no reply.
  4. Maybe she knows the Thai cops reputation. So, "till the end of the line" as the song says.
  5. At least she still has her kidneys and other body parts. It could have been worse.
  6. I just renewed my British passport using VFS Global in Bangkok. It took eleven weeks. A mate did his at the same time and it took nine weeks. In the UK, they used to renew passports in Liverpool, but now they do this in Corby. Think this might be the main problem, as they were unaware that we have to retain our passports in Thailand, thus the reason for photo coping all pages. In the end, I had to sign a paper saying I would return my lost passport if I found it. Sent many emails, but each team did not seem to realise what had gone on before. Reckon this will be my last passport renewal before I die, thank God. What a nightmare.
  7. It has been one way since they started working on Beach road. Just, everybody ignores the sign.
  8. Tough Thai lady. Smart also, knowing the correct anti venom would be required.
  9. Used to always get someone else's receipt.
  10. Hope none from the local bridge club were there.
  11. Yep, she is a keeper. That is, keep her in the nut house.
  12. I submitted my documents to VFS Global exactly nine weeks ago and still waiting for new passport to be approved. Multiple emails asking for more documentation from me; filling in a form to say my passport is lost; dealing with seven different teams at passport renewal in UK. The list goes on and on. What a shambles.
  13. He sounds like a good guy. His Mum would be proud.
  14. Better than fighting the terrorists in the south.
  15. Think I am going to take up rafting now.
  16. Yes, after a few days. They were quick off the mark in that respect.
