Its the same on Thai's ID and DLs.

A few questions to me and the Mrs, nothing too serious, or money related. Photo done there and then. Off topic. Why do the photos on these ID cards and Driving Licences show most of the shirt you are wearing as opposed to just head and shoulders.

What is a very young lady?

5 minutes online. Stop moaning.

Six years after being told several times that we must be married to get a Yellow book for me, I finally got the relevant info saying that we didn't. Two weeks later, and Bht 500 to the village head man, book, Pink card were there.

Plus 7% VAT.

Is Bob just an inadequate human being needing attention, or just taking the pi55 out of us all, or an absolute nutter?

A Foreigner cannot be put in a Blue book, only Thais

I am not skint, nor an idiot, nor travelling on a budget. But premiums for older people, and there are many of us, are simply outrageous.

Sorry for shouting!

I was really commenting on the use of many words instead of just one. Same as 'at this moment in time' means NOW.

Lucky if I spend more that 2 x 5 minutes in mine per day. My restaurant-sized beer/wine fridge is mine ! 555

It would make sense for them to do the same in UK, where you simply fill in a form, ticking the appropriate box even if it is telling lies. Even over 70 you do not need any sort of physical test, not even an optician.

My curtain does not do that as I turn the water on first, giving it time to warm up a bit with the curtain open, get in the shower then close it. So glad to know that you have a big bathroom.

And only ONE piece per pax. Really pi55e5 me off when the overhead lockers are filled with boxes of doughnuts or similar.

It is reasonably easy to understand when talking, but some of the 'ancient' spelling needs a kick up the bum. Right?

If they start questioning your case, ask them to physically check EVERY piece of hand luggage for EVERY passenger. I think you'll get away with it. Safe trip.

Or a curtain........it does the same job.

The child's guardians DID give proper guidance by saying 'Go in there and nick whatever is lying around' Rather silly to leave a phone in full sight of an open doorway.

Sadly some of us older idiots who have got their home & families here are priced out of Health Insurance. Luckily I have a very good University Hospital close by, who have provided me with adequate and reasonably priced treatment.

Usually these days, it is almost impossible to book an hotel directly, they all use booking.com, or expedia. All others are sub-divisions of these two. I was even told at one hotel for which I wanted to add another night, to do it on the computer standing there in the foyer. Surely the hotel would have saved the 15 or 20% they have to pay the agents. Talking about baggage, my son is today flying Dubai to Bahrain, Etihad airfare AED 409 one way including 25kg in the hold & 7kg hand. 10kg extra baggage AED 528!

Sadly there is no SARCASM emoji, and some members do not see it when it is in capital letters.

Sorry Grammar Police here. Should be 'Don't you EVER sleep" or 'Do you never sleep'

You do not look very moddish in your new photo.

I think you would be better as a Rocker, 70s style.
