Old, Thai doc has an office on Pattaya Klang near 3rd Rd.  Laser zapped a facial schmutz on my cheek for 3,000 bt. last week.  10 minutes in and out.  No problem.  North side of the street, beach side of 3rd Rd.  If interested, I'll get his card out when I get home.

 

Hope it wasn't cancerous, good luck 

Don't mess around with moles, especially in The Land of Cowboys very dangerous. Consult a proper Western professional 

Let the Brits down, didn't hit scum bag hard enough he should have at least taken out a few teeth and flattered his nose a bit more.

She'll be in the House of Commons within fortnight along with the rest of the thieving barstewards.

No such animal as a good Thai driver 🤣😂

Definitely makes you wonder about their important maintenance schedule. Knowing what a fiddling nation they represent.

Bikes or Cars. There's only one way to drive AUTOMATIC

Not a lot to report, except there seem to be signs of work commencing about half way along. Large sections fenced off in the one way section.

 

I went all the way down to the Na Jomtien end last night at about 1930. Nightmare! The bottleneck created by the narrow strip of road about half way caused an enormous jam in both directions. I pulled over for a coffee in the 7. The guy serving me said it's the same every night.

 

So why are they working a mile up the road when the real problem is a mile down the road?

 

They've started closing both gates at the bottom of Pratamnak Soi 5 onto Dong Tan Beach rd, by the big 7 at 10pm, open again at 0530.  So not even the bikes can get through. Going north you can chance it but it's a tricky Thai style descent over bricks and stones placed on the steps down from sands caff.

 

The stench of open sewers is everywhere in this hot weather. How in heavens name they can front Pattaya as a 5 * resort town I've no idea. It just stinks.

Walk, problem solved 

I earn a decent living in the UK, with my mobile cash only company Clampbuster UK. 😂👍🤣

Tell them you live in the Philippines then you get full pension!

Great idea, but when they send you correspondence to the Philippines and they receive no response. Guess what happens you got it payment is totally stopped. Happening all the time with those fiddlers who try to tell them they are still living in the UK. 

Why not get a multi entry Tourist Visa. 60 days on entry, short break elsewhere I would recommend Laos much nicer people. 60 days on re entry. You can do as many times as you like during the validation of the Visa. Not taking your live in your hands with licensless driver probably been up all night on the booze 

Don't know where to post this but this forum is a total waste of time now. With this Hong Kong advert totally dominating making every post unreadable

In September or October you're going to apply for another METV, when was your first one issued?

You shouldn't have any problem getting a second one, but I wouldn't be 100% sure, it depends on your embassy. After all you're asking for the same visa just after few months. Have a plan B, just in case.

Early signs of dementia 😥😥

We all know there's no such thing as fast in Thailand. But is that such a bad thing. UK are presently spending Billions of pounds on a train line to save 20 minutes on a 200 mile journey. What's that all about rushing to the bone yard 😧

All the Nigerians on Sukhumvit in BKK are all drug dealers and/or scammers.

The biggest Nígerian scammer on the planet is Anthony Joshua telling people he can box. 😂😅🤣

Yes correct visa sticker in the passport.

 

Probably better to stay on the cautious side of things and will swing past Jomtien immigration and see what fun awaits me.

Jomtien immigration, be prepared for 3 days out of your life. And the Cowboys have supposed to have streamlined things. 😂😅😂swing past definitely ain't happening 😂😅😂

Who gives a toss

My last entry n Nov of last year was in about 15 minutes, 3 people ahead of me in "express line". At the IO, greet him in Thai, then fingerprints of right hand, PP check - Extension of Stay,  re-entry permit up to date and Yellow House Book in PP,  done in about 1 1/2 minutes.

Greet him in Thai, 😅😂😅 at least you think you did. My Thai lady friend just laughs at you jokers who think they can speak Thai. 😅😂😅 Her favourite English phrase is cannot do. 😅😂😅

Thanks but doesn't work on my car - I can't remove the ignition key whilst in neutral

Put in neutral. Disconnect the battery you will then be able to remove the ignition key. Reconnect the battery leave in neutral a pain but doable
