I had never had an overstay in 7 years, until the last departure. I misread the scribble and smudged stamp, and I was at the border on 29, in stead of the required 28th. My lousy eyesight didn't help, nor did being a reasonably respectable 68 year old, smartly dressed. etc etc

Cost me 500 Baht, and an hour, whilst all and sundry had to sign, counter sign, get their relatives to come and sign and countersign the counter signatures., ... then have a party and go for a ride on an elephant. (All this while I was getting more and more desperate for a pee. You know how it is.)
