Settle the civil case asap.

Probably the solution. 

Throw some money at the problem, it works in Thailand.

Why are these small motorbikes suddenly being called 'scooters'? Scooters were Lambrettas or Vespas back in the day.

 

Back in the day, these were scooters.

Last time I did my 90 day at Jomtien; October last year; it was passport only and in and out in 10 minutes. I have been out of country once since then so my 90 day report is now due next week. 

Is it still passport only or are other documents now needed?

NB: I have tried the online service but it is not accepting my attempts.

Many thanks in advance for helpful replies.

Best you take 1600 baht with you for the tm30 fine.

The immigration told that I needed 2 certificates of residence of 500 bath each.

Of course they would. 

2 x free certificates (0baht) for 1000 baht. 

Lots of beer money for them.

WE did not reschedule, YOU did.

This lying technique is suitable for these mismanaged delivery services. 

Most are reliable and on schedule but the others are annoying.

Have enjoyed excellent 3BB service for over 12 years

I have. 

I had 3BB connected back when they offered 2mb bandwidth for 590 baht per month. 

It was pegged at 590 baht a month but 3BB regularly doubled the bandwidth, increasing the bandwidth from 2 to 4mb and so on, these increases happened regularly until I had Fibre installed. 

BTW, who else is enjoying those 'temple street' adds, can't get enough. 😂

Or just do the sensible thing and refrain from riding motorcycles full stop.

So what you are saying he should be like most boring old farts and sit in front of the computer all day being miserable. 

I've been riding since the age of 10, not a better experience in this world than riding my motorbikes

revoke the rule that restricts alcohol sales between 2pm and 5pm.

My local Family Mart, now Tops, won't sell me alcohol during off times but I see the Thais walking out of the shop 4am, 5am, 6am with bottles of beer. 

Probably paying cash, not requiring a receipt as the till won't allow the employee to ring it up. 

I don't mind the stupid hours, I end up going to a Thai shop and buy my grog, just disappointed that Tops sells to some but not others.

Strange how some deaths reach the news and others don't, a few weeks ago 3 white cars racing on Hua Yai in Pattaya, they crash killing an innocent scooter rider, never made the news

It could be the size of the bike that drew their attention, 650cc.

They want us bigger bike riders off the roads, so any news is good news it seems.

Selling your house didn't solve any problems, the same thing will happen to your next house whether you buy or rent.

My solution was to sell the house as it is an unsolvable problem

Nope.... I had around 2 metres removed from my front fence and had a wider gate fitted, it allows you to drive your car in on an angle. 

I've never had an issue since gate was installed.

So is it best to have your Residence and Medical Certificates' with you when going the first time to make your appointment to the DLT

I made my appointment 1 month in advance, didn't have any documents, just showed my licences.
