Agreed. It's provocative nonsense, designed to shock or, worse, titillate.

If one is to believe AMM on X/Twitter, the 'deal' is off.

An iconic and very misunderstood performer. Very sad.

Isn't sinsod rather out of date these days, and if it is part of an engagement or marriage ceremony, it's just for show?

Yes, I'm really pleased for him.

Can both foreign parents be added to a child's Ed visa for attending school?

Except he is.

Apologies for the directness, but it does get me a little riled up when people post things as if they're a truth. I met my GF when she was 19 and I was 49, married her and had a child when she was 25 and I was 55, and 8 years later things are going well. I might be 62 but I'm enjoying being a dad and a husband to a younger woman.

What a load of nonsense! Plenty of men don't settle down and get married until they're in their 50s and if they want children, they need to find a younger wife. I truly wonder if some BMs live in or have ever been to Thailand!

Thanks. My thoughts too. Thai education seems to love these "competitive" tests.

30 for me and it seems to have worked.

That's true!

He's not on Sky. He's on Rupert Murdoch's Talk TV channel, on cable and YouTube.

He's the main presenter on Rupert Murdoch's Talk TV (on cable, YouTube).

My British son (8-years-old) switched from an International School to a Thai Bi-lingual/English Program school a year ago. The school keeps sending me details of various external Tests such as Thailand English Skills Evaluation Test (TESET), the National Academic Test (NAT), Asian Science and Mathematics Olympiad (ASMO) and English Language competition, Japan International Science and Math Olympiad (JISMO). They all require an entry fee, which is fine, but I have no idea how essential external tests like these are. Do they have any bearing on the student's progress through the Thai system to Secondary level? Or are they just a money-making exercise for Thai parents who like to show off their kids?

Yes. Quite disgusting.

Unfortunately nothing to do with the UK Embassy in Bangkok. As @Mutt Daengsays, it has to be legalised by the UK Legalisation Office in Milton Keynes (at a fee) and then certified/attested by the Thai Embassy in London (also at a fee). When I did this for my UK marriage certificate, it took about 14 days. The MK office will forward the legalised document to the Thai Embassy for you, if you provide a stamped-addressed envelope. It's much easier to do if you're in the UK or have someone in the UK to do it for you.

The Embassy is now at St Louis BTS. VFS operate from The Trendy offices but only deal with the admin for applications and renewals. The passport itself is issued by HMPO in Liverpool.

When was that?

'The lad doth protest too much, methinks.'

Yes, on reflection I'll replace it with the lack of respect for the environment due to littering. (That said, walking to work in a nice shirt & tie and getting dripped on from canopies did use to drive me crazy).

Yes, even The US Office wasn't a patch on the UK original. However, original sitcoms like Seinfeld and Curb Your Enthusiasm knock the socks off most UK comedies.

I could easily think of 5 things I hate about my 'home' country as well. Maybe you're just easy to please.

1. Cheap accommodation 2. Pad krappow moo khrob Can't think of another 3.

1. Food in restaurants not being served at the same time. 2. Motorbikes / helmets (or lack thereof) 3. Speeding/tailgating drivers 4. Dripping canopies 5. 90-day & TM30 reporting
