For use once a week, I'd just use a frying pan.

 

My deep fryer with closed lid as I can use it in the storage, while a fry pan I need to use the kitchen, which involves cleaning the whole kitchen afterwards I'm afraid.

Below is the deep fryer i use now.

I got a fake Samsung ssd last week on lazada so yes, theyre still selling a lot of fake crap and now i have the hassle of printing a label and posting it back to them

Since I'm looking to purchase a SSD as well, how do you recognize a fake one?

Don't forget to ask for a sense of humor when you write to Santa, OK?

I bet your whole house stinks even without any Camembert in there.

I'm sure you agree with me that's a killer joke, not?

You have to remember that a lot of Thaivisa members do not have English as their first language.

I do believe that the member that made the post is a UK citizen, one pissed ,as hell from drinking 1 bottle of vodka as he admitted in his following post in another thread, and that they speak English in the UK but my first language is indeed not English.

but said if the exchange rate went to 42.00 then to come back as all would be good.

From that I understand that they use the calculation in the correct way, as Ubonjoe states they should use it, because if the exchange rate went back to 42, that would not make any difference for those few days in October that you claim to be the reason for the rejection.

I have a deep fryer ( with oil ) I brought from Europe years ago, as i like my french fries once a week.

I'm very satisfied with it, wasn't it the cleaning of the fryer and surroundings.

It's the type with the smokeless lid and can be taken completely apart, but after making fries 4 -5 times, it's still a hard job to clean the sticky mess.

I don't use it for anything else than french fries.

When in Europe few months ago I considered bringing a new one over, but these days it is almost impossible to find one that uses oil.

So I would like to ask members that use such an oil free fryer, do the french fries really taste the same as if fried in oil?

I very rarely buy foreign food stuff in Thailand unless it is a heavy promotion, since I can live without, especially at those rip off prices, but when I go to my home country or have friends coming over, the freezer get stuffed.

Just a few days ago I had friend bring me President Camembert 1.70 Euro for 250gr - 515 Baht in Thailand

Chorizo dried salami 7.80 Euro per kilo - 1750 Baht in Thailand

Regular sliced salami with garlic. 0.5 Euro for 150 gram - Thailand about 300 Baht for similar.

Sliced Gouda cheese - forgot the price, but for sure again 1/5th of Thailand.

Unfortunately this is not a good solution for us, since she's not good with computers. Doesn't even have Facebook like most.

Most banks have a smartphone app, does exactly same as the PC version, and can get money from ATM without ATM card.

ATM can not swallow smart phone

If you give here access to your online banking she can transfer in real time all the money needed to her own account, and withdraw it from there.

I think

Techdoctor is not a mod, so i nominate techdoctor, or is it only active members that can be nominated?

look forward to a higher price than 19.800 because labour depends on the design of the ornament, and will probably add to that price

However having done the 90 day report in no way meets the TM30 requirement (if your IO enforces that).

 

As previously explained these are entirely different requirements, even though both entail reporting your address.

 

IF your IO is one of those who enforce TM30 reporting and IF their interpretation is that you need to re-file a TM30 after returning from a trip abroad, where you will find out about it is when you do your next extension. They don't check it during 90 day reporting.

 

 

If that was a requirement in my IO, I'm sure they would have fined me now, as he looked at my reentry permit and other stamps in my passport. I have a pretty recent passport, so not much stamps in there yet.

If they don't find out now, then when they would find out?

I also menmtioned in another post that in those 10 years of retirement extensions I was never asked for a TM30.

Beware that a lot of their third-party sellers are selling fakes. One example is computer memory. For instance if you search for "sd card 256 gb", on the same page you will find one item priced at around 3,000 baht from Lazada's own store and another one at 80 baht from a third party seller. At that price it's fake for sure.

 

 

I even know some on here that bought the 80 Baht version, then started a thread that is was a copy 55555555

They probably wouldn’t accept the report because it’s not due. They will see the new entry and tell you to go back in January.

Went to do the 90 day report today as i still had the slip in my passport anyway.

 They scanned the slip and issues a new one. He had a quick look through my passport, as I he must have seen something on his pc screen, but no questions asked.

Took a whole 4 minutes between entering and exiting the building, though quite a lot of people inside and outside.

No. If you don't know how to do research, don't  expect others to hold your hand. 

When I read the 8 pages of your thread it's clear that you are the only one that THINKS he knows how to do research.

No further comments. Bye

 False. I don't base that on one person. Instead of getting on here and making assumptions, mocking people, I research. If you did the same you would know that certifying documents is a duty of Oz embassys and consuls. Get on the gov.com.au, ministry of foreign affairs. The ambassador to Thailand can't change legislation. It would not matter if it was the little old lady office cleaner at the embassy who told me. You have to get up early in the morning to get one over me. 

False.

Point us to your " research" in the thread you started

False news. The Oz embassy have said they will certify documents that prove income . Stat decs are not going to be use after January. 

And you base that one one particular embassy staff that has told that to you.

You have since any credible source?

I was told that this was the last time I could use an Embassy Stat Dec for Income purposes.

They stated I would have to have THB 800,000.00 in a Thai Bank for three months prior to applying to renew my retirement Visa next year. No excuses.

Thanks forr mentioning that, now it's just waiting for the usual deniers from the related threads to come here and read it.

If you can buy old stock at those prices good for you, but wine prices have been increased across the board, why would the ones you buy for 300 baht be exempt from the extra taxation?

As far as I know the price of the so-called "fruit wines" increased much more than the price of real wine, because the fruit wines were taxed very differently due to them being fermented here from imported concentrate.

 

That loophole was closed a while ago which caused the massive increases. Real wine went up somewhat less, though it still went up, and now the cost difference between the two is smaller than it was.

Yes fruit wine has had bigger price increases than real wine, for the reasons you explained, but real wine hasn't been 300 Baht a bottle since at least a decade, so the poster is trolling.

However, If you do not have a new address and have the little slip from your previous TM 30 in your passport, they don't require anything more than showing up and presenting that slip in your passport - no new form or paperwork required

I have never completed a TM30, and don't recall to have been asked for it, so also don't have a slip

A 90 day report is an address report. That’s it’s whole purpose. You’re updating/re-confirming your address for the next 90 day period.

Understood, and that was actually the reason why I suggested to do my 90 day report on the day as previously expected, because then they only look at the slip in my passport, while otherwise they will have to look at my entry stamp to count the 90 days and maybe see some easy money.

I suggest you ask your local office when you report your address again in January.

I actually don't recall that I have ever specifically reported my address.

A few years ago there was the 2 or 3 page question form that needed to be filled in at had all your personal info.

I have filled that in and presented on my 90 day reports twice, but it was always rejected with te comment "next time ".

Previously there were copies from yellow tabien baan to be attached when reporting 90 day, but that has been done away with for some years already also.

Here we go as I just read a post from another married member who got fined for failing to re-register after a visa run.

I'm on a retirement extension of stay for the past 10 years, and have a permanent address with yellow tabien baan.

Early October I left to my home country for 2 weeks, and had a re-entry permit.

I filled my address on the TM card, but didn't went to immigration on my return.

Did I need to re-register, and will I be fined for not doing this?

According to my previous 90 day report, the next one would have been 8 December, but since my return date was 18 October, that would now be 17 January I assume.

Does it harm if I do my 90 report now, or should I wait till 17 January?
