Led Lolly Yellow Lolly

The article above appears to suggest there is something wrong with these individuals i.e. their development has somehow malfunctioned. I'm not sure if that fits with the wider woke narrative, but in any case, it amuses me that the movement you align with has somehow found 'something' we all missed in a system that's worked for humanity, until the turn of this century.

Reality's a bitch

I had a very nice family holiday on Koh Tao last year. I'm planning to build our family home there (believe me I've seen just about every part of Thailand and it's Koh Tao for me, or maybe Phangan, or maybe, maybe. . .). Every British person thinks they know AAAALLLL about death island, just like everyone in Britain knows AAAALLL about Thai women. Yawn. Yawn yawn yawn. Massive yaaaawwwnn.

To be honest it's news to me that company stamp is no longer required. I had to register my company seal when the business was registered at the DBD. Thereafter your rubber stamp is a kind of legal fingerprint that ties any document to your company. This could be anything from taxation to customer invoices (my invoices are generated in PDF with my company seal digitally added). Personally I just like the satisfying feel of stamping my logo on stuff to satiate my desire to be officious from time to time.

No need to worry, HTMS Chakri Naruebet will protect us. I saw it in a dream.

Company registration document is all you need for the .co.th, use the THNIC website. In practice you'll find people still expect to see it. It costs effectively nothing to have one.

I have a DBD registered company. I find it very hard keeping abreast of what it what, things that are needed for this that and the other. Just running the business takes all of my time, I have no inclination or spare capacity to put sticky labels on documents. . . I keep up to date PDF scans of everything (with Ingrish file names), useful for Paypal company accounts etc etc. . . . but it sounds like you have the right idea i.e. someone you trust. In my case that's my wife and daughter, and my son when he's old enough. You'll need the company registration document for pretty much everything. The company rubber stamp is a big deal in Thailand too. As you're just setting up, you might want to investigate the availability of your .co.th domain name (in Thailand only available to registered companies, emails from a .co.th domain go a long way towards credibility, where most SMEs still use Hotmail).

They rejected my photo on this one year. It was all the effort I could muster not to go back with a photo dressed like so. . .

In this case I'm very happy to be stuck in my ways.

Contemporary Britons take themselves far too seriously. I remember a few years ago there was a big media frenzy about some teacher running away to France with his 16 year old student and it was quite the international incident... with the French wondering what all the fuss was about.

I'm not saying KrungSri don't require facial recognition, this is a mandate by central government. I'm saying SCB have all kinds of internal rules that are overtly restrictive and inconvenient to foreign nationals.

When I was a kid I walked to school, something like 10 kilometers a day round trip. Sounds a lot but actually it's not. Stop making excuses for parents sending children out on motorcycles, unlicensed and no helmet. There is none. It's just stupidity being passed down to the next generation.

This was why I abandoned SCB in favour of KrungSri, where I have no such issues. Endless restrictions, absurdly low daily card limits, that sort of thing, with the reason "Difflen lule farang, no can" . . . OK, bye.

I imagine even the insurers underestimate that representation, insurance to Thai people is like the ground wire in an electrical circuit i.e. they don't know what it's for so it's a waste of money.

Sure she can, but you're always a parent and decisions always have consequences.
