  1. If you want to avoid long ferry queues and surly staff, to KC, then the old Centre Point ferry is up and running again, albeit a limited service. And a return ticket is available at a reduced rate valid for one month.
  2. Camping in Morocco a million years ago, I brought a tin of marmalade, when I opened it it had a wasp inside, I went back to the small shop, got another one, it had 2 wasps inside
  3. I love these temple do's the way you pay 10b for a garland, and then, they are collected, taken back to the vendor who then resells them, to whoever for the next performer.
  4. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I have read that the Foreign Currency Accounts, are not covered by the 1m guarantee if the banks go tits up.
  5. IMO yes as far as assets etc., but I think they are talking about a civil marriage service, buy that I mean one that will not Take place at an Amphur, i.e. not for a marriage visa/extension purpose. But only time will tell.
  6. I strongly recommend painting them with silver oil based paint (it goes on like water) mine were welded on site, and the builder painted them at the time, curious I found out that it is the best for galv. as here in Thailand it is cold Galv. coated, starts to rust fairly quickly going by bits left over, after painting no rust came, that paint can also cover rust.
  7. My Trat IO list also doesn't state the same day, but it is. Luckily there is an Amphur near by. As you may know Any Amphur office can issue one, it take us 10min while I just wait in the car as your already going with your wife, for the extension, I don't see the problem.
  8. And of course You never do that do you.
  9. And how many cases do we hear about, where the RTP are inactive in bringing charges where the victims have to go to the press/social media or foundations to get any help?
  10. So this just turned into a golfing post and some not even in Thailand.
  11. Jack said have it handy, very good advise be prepared for a grumpy IO who read a different rule book.
  12. Agreed first he said he had never met them before and then he said he first met them at a beach café a year ago.
  13. Lets hope his family don't cut the lot down to sell off, RIP not crazy guy.
  14. Because of the stupid litigation laws here, there will never be freedom of speech or media reports. Most are gagged before they dare put pen to paper.
  15. So if it was a "Brutal" attack the 'victim' would have wounds, so who inflicted them if not the Twins?, and what motive would he have to bring false charges?, did the victim know them at all?, did he know they were about to leave?, when did the twins buy the flight tickets?, seems more questions than answers. I doubt we will ever know what really happened.
  16. Same as me and not only that, at my IO we must take our witness/neighbor along too, who also works, so I pay her a days money for us it's about a 7hr return trip, with them tagging along to bank, Amphur, photo copy place, Lunch, then to the IO, 2hrs until they are finished, then the ferry home, a great day out NOT. The only thing I could do before is get the 12 ! photos printed.
  17. You may also want to think about where you will live after as you'll have to have it all moved again, and most places now for rent are already furnished. Try to sell it if you can or even give it away.
  18. I was just going to say that myself, I would look for an unfurnished terrace room for 2K a month. Depend where you are but they seem to be everywhere, I'd take the pump from the pool as well.
  19. They fined me 300 baht even though I had a New Tax sticker, it had fallen down and was resting on the dash, my missus even held it up for them. Wonkers!
  20. I find to many bugs in this tropical climate under netting may work though.
  21. Please tell me he doesn't actually fly his plane 😱
