So, I'm clearing out my wardrobe, and it seems that I will end up with bags and bags of clothes that I don't wear anymore.
Does anyone have any ideas for where I can take them? It would be a shame to throw them away. I live in A. Muang, so it would be great if anyone had ideas for places that are convenient.
Thanks!

The next installment is out on 1st February, I believe.

I guess sickening could be used. This keeps the ??? element. (e.g. nausea = ????????)
Ooops. Guess I need to work on how to use Thai whenI post.

I've often wondered about how to translate this into English. My dictionary also gives along the lines of 'to be disgusted' but I think that's a bit harsh. Most people usually use it more lightly.
The best I can come up with would be 'gross!', as used by (UK) teenagers.

You can see why some people want/need to go home to get a new NON-O visa.
Last and not least (since many asked here): country of residence or citizenship is *irrelevant*.
(BTW I learned this for sure on TV)
Anybody regardless of his country of residence or citizenship can apply for a Thai visa anywhere there is a Thai embassy/consulate.
(OK. Seems some neighbours of Thailand, part of the "developing world", have unwritten policies to discriminate against non-nationals, like in Cambodia. But in the "first world", everybody should be fine).
I once tried to apply for a visa at the Thai embassy in Rome, as my father was resident there. They refused to help me as I am British and was not resident in Italy.

That's pretty much exactly what I heard on the news at the time.

I vote for earthquake.
I'm on the ground floor but it was still enough to give me a fright!

Its actually been 2 1/2 years already and I still think that's rushing!

Thanks lopburi3.
Wish I'd known about extension being possible before now! The visa's up on Sunday and I don't have time for a rushed wedding!

Hi all,
I wonder if anyone can help me out.
If I have used up the 90 days I got from a sgl non-imm O, will I have any problems getting a 30 day stamp at Mae Sai?
Extension isn't possible - the visa is stamped 'Extension of stay not permitted.'

Hi,
Yet it does make sense. I just dont know how you can ask you doctor to go to see another one, without making him losing face ... maybe she will say she is leaving just near Suan Dok.
By the way, nobody got some name at Suan Dok ?
Thanks
You just tell the doctor that you would like to see an HIV specialist within the social security system - it's pretty routine.
I will try to get you the name of a doctor there. From what I remember, in the HIV clinic you don't actually make an appointment with a particular doctor - you just see which ever doctor is free.
-
Also, a doctor should be able to give contact details for the Thai Network of People Living with HIV (TNP+), who would have details of hostels etc. and provide excellent support.
-
To be treated by the doctors at Suan Dok, your friend needs to be referred there by their regular doctor at the hospital where they have registered their social security. Another place is McCormick, where your friend is able to register for social security by requesting to move from their old hospital. Does that make sense? Both have HIV clinics.

If you are renewing an expired passport (and you have the old one with you) and you are making your application in person, you don't need anyone to sign your photos.

My sister's is pretty cool:
Madness - House of Fun!

Nilapat - Kenny Rogers - Coward of the County
Mr Nilapat - Wings - Mull of Kintyre
That seems like quite a pair to me.

Thanks Dave.
I'm here already, but my lil' sis' is coming to visit and she's stressing out over booking tickets! I haven't had the pleasure(?) of passing through the 'pride of Thailand' yet.
Thanks to you both.

Thanks jd.
That gives me some kind of idea at least!

Can anyone advise how long it currently takes to transfer from an international arrival to a domestic departure? Different airlines, so need to leave time for baggage collection/check in and immigration.
Thanks!

George, do you have a link for the OP, please? For some reason I can't find it in The Nation. Thanks.

They said that bigwig civil servants had to report tomorrow morning at 9 and that tomorrow would be a holiday for banks and civil servants. They also repeated that the coup's leaders had gone to report on the situation to the King at midnight.
-
I imagine so - they said a holiday for civil servants and banks.
-
They just announced that tomorrow is a bank holiday while they get things sorted out.

“It also deals with those who want to get married - it records around 70 couples a week coming in to get marriage documents processed, nearly all of them older British men marrying younger Thai women … never mind a number of recent cases of foreigners in Thailand who were murdered after their marriages to Thai women went wrong.”
As if a British woman has never murdered her British husband.
Clothes Clearout!

Thank you all for your suggestions.
I guess I'll do a little more research. There are no warm clothes really; just normal warm-weather clothes.
