In the 50s there were vaccines for whooping cough, tuberculosis, diphtheria, smallpox and polio being administered to children. Late 60's saw the vaccine for measles which by early 70s had morphed into measles,mumps & rubella(MMR).

i had vac for polio by tekking a sugar lump.....!!!

I like the word ‘<deleted>w!ttery’..... it perfectly highlights the actions you describe above.

 

There are a handful of countries which compete with Thailand in outrageous displays of ‘<deleted>w!ttery’... on a daily basis I'm astounded at the effort to some will go to exhibit such overwhelming displays of ‘<deleted>w!ttery’...

 

Thailand is in dire need of another crack-down (we haven’t had one this week)... It needs a crackdown on ‘<deleted>w!ttery’... 

The single greatest contributor to Thailands poor road safety record is not the law but out and out total and completely unadulterated ‘<deleted>w!ttery’... 

 

 

 

like ten pin bowling then !!!!

proper driving schools....taught by very qualified instructors, and they must have at least 10 to 20 lessons (proof of lessons required to allow progression to PROPER driving test, which must be atl least an hour long on Thai roads..

Then a severe theory test....say 75 percent answers to be correct....must be completed.

None of this stupid perception, reaction, and eyesight tests...or watching of a meaningless video....COULD BE THE START....of improved driving in Thailand....

teach them anticipation....and perception on the roads...and how to read the road !!!!

Well I took the advice offered re my slow Lenovo all in one and bought a WD SSD 250, cost 1200 baht, took it to Wattana at Tuckom (Pattaya) and had it fitted and cloned for 800 baht, so a total of 2000 baht, but with no noticeable improvement. In fact a 3BB speed test gives me the exact same reading I was getting before. I now have a 1TB HDD that I will need to buy a 600 baht enclosure for if I want to use that as spare storage. So I think this may well have been a case of "if it ain't broke...."

wattanna in tutcom are you sure....???

Just thought I'd give a little update. I stopped by the LTD today as I have an expiring 5 year license in a couple weeks. I read that as of Feb. 1 all LTDs were back open for all services. There was also mention of needed to book appointments online or with an app. At least at out local Chonburi office this isn't the case. You do have to book an appointment, however, as I guess they are only service a limited number of people per day to limit crowds in the office.

 

If applying or renewing a license go directly to the second floor and at the first desk ("Documents Check") make an appointment for the service you need. They will give you an appointment slip and a list of what you need to bring for your service. I am also attaching pics of the documents they have posted on their wall for the most common services.

I am a few weeks into a one-year extension of stay (retirement). I meet with IMO Sriracha end of March for verification of 800,000 THB in place. At this time I will ask for a re-entry permit. I should return to the States for vaccination and taxes. My original 90 day visa is/was single entry. Does this disqualify me from obtaining a re-entry permit? If I can get the permit, what about 90 day reporting if I am not in the Kingdom? I appreciate any answers and feedback!

you do not get a 90 day visa........

That would be great! But in reality it does not work  this way. At least not in Thailand:

1. I had to go to Samut Prakhan Immigration Office only to deal with visa. 

2.90 days report - Thai Immigration (Temporary VISA Extension Center) which is not far from Don Muang.

one can go 'sign in " 15 days before due date.....and 7 days after due date !!!!

Hi guys!

 

Let`s say my 90 days report due day is on  Nov 20. But i get my yearly visa extension on Nov 9. 

Question: when does my 90 days countdown starts?

A) it never starts. It just continues absolutely the same way despite visa extension.

B) 90 days report countdown restarts automatically  along with visa extension.

 

Thanks!

ohhh dear WHWN DO YOU THINK IT STARTS AGAIN......it is NOT rocket science !!!!

Seems to me the world should initiate no bail and a full 25 years, no parole sentence to all people that kill by drink driving. Only then maybe will these idiots learn

Providing the DWP have your correct address they will send you an 'invitation pack' about 4 months before your pension is due. All the details will be revealed. One thing that I do recall is that they want to see your birth certificate. If you haven't got your can get a replacement from  GRO. Details here.

 

Replacement birth Certificate

never asked for mine

Hi Everyone

 

i am about to reach uk pension age. I realise i can apply four months before my 66th birthday. My question is, before that, how difficult is it to do online from here? And what sort of dates and documents will they require? I intend having my state pension paid straight into my Thai bank account. 
 

thanks in advance

You submit the paper work to lecture room number 3

They are only doing 80 driving tests per day

if the 80 have allready been handed out they will give you a que number for another/next day.

first day ( if your one of the lucky 80 ) is que up submit documents, listen to long lecture in lecture room 3 then do the practicle driving test.

if you pass then come back next/another day to do the written test..

So it can easilly take 3 days even if you don't fail any of the tests.

A few Thais where saying that it is much easier to go to Siricha, Sattahip or Rayong where you can still do the whole kaboodle in one day.

IT USED TO BE 120 licences issued in one day!!!
