    Considering that most of the gogo girls earn more money than your pension, I am pretty sure they can manage ????

    Not very imaginative to sling immature insults like "butterball" and "sad sack" at other people here.

    Must try harder indeed.

               :coffee1:

    Coming from some one couldn't even come up with an orginal post.

     

    Go away you pompus twit , go make a big bucket early and soak you head in it .

     

    Get off the keyboard and go outside you sad grumpy man.

     

    Really you got nothing better to do that troll TV and post your bitter cranky  mouthed comments.

     

    Go and play with your budgie.

    You put up an idiotic post, you get harsh replies.  Nobody got out of bed on the wrong side. As suggested cut down on the Chang and think about what you post.

    Harsh replies you can do better butterball

     

    How about you keep your whinging

    and ill informed comments to your cat and gold fish.

     

    Sad Sack

    Didn't there used to be a departure tax? I remember going to a machine and paying 500 bt for a ticket that had to be shown,,,at check in or passport control...don't remember which.

    Yeah It was put into ticket prices

    so they already getting 500 and now

    want more as price not been settled

    on yet.

     

    It was a pain to remember to have the 500 baht set aside.   Many got caught out. 

     

    Strange the media did not report that part of story.

    Thanks.

    As for the cost, I did it steadily over a few months so don’t remember exactly and am not in LOS right now so don’t have access to the receipts,but:

    Concrete - 1.5 cube - 2600 baht
    Floor Tiles - 13 m3 @ 154 - 2000 baht
    Sand/cement, tile adhesive, grout etc - 800 baht
    Aluminium edging 8 x 2m - 1500 baht
    Roof tiles - 4000 baht
    Steel probably around - 5000/6000 baht
    Sundries, conwood fascia, screws and steel for roof tiles, labour for welding and roof fitting, paint and primer. - 4000 baht

    All these figures are rough, so probably 20/25k.

    It was something I wanted to do myself, irrespective of the cost, and I was disappointed when my welding prowess was lacking and had to call someone in but it was needed. His experience of the steel structure needed to support the roof was invaluable also.

    Originally I was going to fit a brown corrugated steel sheet roof ( with silver insulation ) but later decided to go with the same roof tiles as the house and am pleased with the results.

    I have another 80 m3 of the same floor tiles to fit round the house but am going to pay someone !
    The sala was easy enough as I made it 7 x 7 tiles and half a tile round the outside but I’m not up to the job of the garage area and walkways around the house..... no way !!

    Thanks for the cost Andrew.

     

    You were right to call in someone with a better skill set for the job.

     

    But for somethings yiu have to bite the bullet, nothing worst than outlaying money and end up with a ball up , shitty job.

     

    There is a certain satisfaction of doing projects yourself.

     

    Great results so far Andrew , good luck with the rest you'll have many years of enjoyment I'm sure.

     

    Regards

    I’ve just built my own ( except for the welding and the roof tiles ).
    Just need to fit a ceiling fan, paint the cement on roof and fit some shade arrangement for the backside.

    IMG_0789.JPG

    A very self satisfying project if you feel up to it, you can design it to fit your needs.

    Thanks Andrew,

     

    I'll run past the Mrs see what she says, but knowing her she want her way.

     

    I like it, great work.

     

    what was the cost if you don't mind me asking..?

    Pokey, impractical, uncomfortable collectors of dust, garbage, cobwebs and birdshit.

     

    ...and the gardeners lunch leftovers.

     

    On the other hand, these ones are much more practical IMHO. And cheaper too.

  12. HI,

     

    I Did a search on TV and most are very old threads, mobile no longer connected and business long gone.

     

    So looking for any up to date information on location for good quality Sala.

     

    Been to the one on Pattaya -Rayong Highway timber not good quality and finish was not good.

     

    Asking price was 36,000 baht.

     

     

    Regards

    Thanks for the update.  So, nothing has changed in this regard - made-up rules that directly contract the official rules (just like the Bangkok airport entry-points) or pay 15K to 25K through the "copy shop" agent.  "No Tips," indeed!!

    Your other option is to go out for a Non-O from a Thai-consulate - which is how I worked-around that desk at that office (wouldn't accept my income-letter with backup-evidence last year). 

     

    As your extension is "retirement" - you should be good to go after this hurdle, unless something changes.  That desk has good reports for years.

    I picked that up today not many happy people from desk7 , but smiling friendly faces and happy people leaving desk 8.

     

    Thanks for advice and well wishes JackThompson

    You wrote this which indicates she is a Thai citizen.

     

    That is why she can get a 12 month extension as a returning Thai national.

    Why didn't she use a Thai passport to enter the country.

     

    As has been posted on a number of ocassions and everyone has a diifernt view.  BUt we alaways choose the Auatralian papssport so in the event of needing Emergency Assistance from the Australian Embassy she comes and goes on the Australian Passport  so to avoid being refused assistance from Australian Embassy.

    My apologies I agree his information is very helpful I thought you showed the immigration official something that he had directly posted which would not have really mattered. Unfortunately here regardless of what the official rules might be every office seems to be doing things the way they want to do it. Again not trying to slight ubonjoe I have learned from him on this forum and he is a wealth of information to others as well just a misunderstanding I hope you do get your situation cleared up.

    No Apologies needed Hereforgood.

     

    I read of the carbon copy of my situation and was merely 

    posting for Ubonjoe and others to read and avoid the same situation.

     

    Thanks for your well wishes apperciate it

     

    Kind Regards
