    I realise there is another topic about plane seats right now. But I am only interested in one thing, as someone who has never had a problem with fat people taking up part of my seat, I just want to know what you would do if you were on a flight for about 12 hour's and a very fat person was taking up a part of your seat especially if you were a 6ft tall person weighing around 78 Ks like me.

    What exactly does "taking up part of my seat " mean ?  I mean how far would you be prepared to go ? Sounds a bit weird to me.

    Personally the thought of being anywhere near obese people makes me want to puke

    Most places seem to want 30 or more baht, but is 20 baht ok with out insulting the seller of Thai sticks.

    Depends what's in it.    I had a guy try  to charge me 200 bt for a brickweed joint in a Bangkok "dispensary" last year,  so 20bt on the face of it sounds ok.

    Whats 10 bt at the end of the day anyway?  you sound like a real miser 

    "Thai sticks" :cheesy::clap2: far out man

    So I am a “bad apple” or want to illegally operate a business in Thailand. Why wouldn’t I apply for a visa and then get a one year extension on the grounds of retirement or being a student? Or if I want to avoid all the bothersome details, just pay a visa agent 35k baht to get one.

     

    i mean, the point I am making is that visas are easy to get. I don’t really see how they act as a deterrent or hurdle to bad guys at all.

    Exactly,except for the laughable LTR visas, which most hooligans could not satisfy the financials for anyway,  there are few visas that require police checks

    Its not really aimed at those operating illegal businesses at all in my opinion.  They obviously want to weed out a few troublemakers but to specify the countries concerned might jeopardise future relations with them, so nominating "illegal business operators"  and other general ne'er do wells avoid that diplomatic issue.

    The best way to reduce the workload is to just discourage those from the UK visiting Thailand.

    I suggest the same for Americans and Canadians, as well.

    Aussies are OK, though, for me.

    The population of Australia is very low.

    Therefore, not, really a problem.

     

    And don't forget the chinese, Their consulate must be busy

    OK so why doesn't the UK tell their citizens that if you show up in Bangkok airport with some Cocain in your passports that your <deleted>, d as the last couple months 2 idiots from the UK did just that,,, nope not brain surgeons these two,,,I hope they spend the next ten years banged up. 

    As for the British Embassy the people that work their should be arrested for being the most useless aholes on the planet. 

    its hardly the job of the consulate to explain the obvious to idiots but i do agree the staff are useless
