I get all 3 at Villa in K Village. I've seen Nesquick there as well, but not for a while, though I've not particularly been looking for it either.

Sorry it didn't work out for you. Were you able to open an account with BB?

In my Grab app, I put the destination in, confirm the pickup location, and then on the next page it lists the types of cars and has the green BOOK button. To the left of that button there is a small icon of a car with a clock. Click that and the options for date and time come upm If you don't have that either, just look around your version of the app. It will be there somewhere.

One was on a tourist visa, but that was a while ago. The other was a non-immigrant visa, and I also opened an account there with a SMART O visa.

I've booked in advance with Grab for early morning trips many times. If I am able to book, it's never been a problem. They have always arrived on time, usually a little early. However, sometimes (and it's happening more often recently), I can't make a booking because they don't have a driver/the time is full. When that happens, I call one on the day, but well in advance because there is usually a long wait. So I would suggest you book it as soon as you can.

Try the SCB in EmQuartier. They will probably want to send your application off somewhere for approval, but I know a couple of people who've opened one there without a work permit.

This is a UK requirement, not a Thai one. Many other countries will certify documents locally through their embassies/consulates, but the UK won't, so we have to send them back.

It is not 'only' Thailand by any means, Canada and Qatar are two more off the top of my head, and Singapore only signed up last year.

Then is sounds like they want Thai legalization, not simply an apostille. That usually means you have to get it legalized by the UK first (either through a notary or apostille, depending on what Thailand will accept.) That legalized document then goes to the Thai embassy in the UK, who add their own legalization certificate to it. After that, it can be used here. These are the typical steps for a non-Hague country. I haven't done it myself for Thailand. Also, in many countries, what the rules say should happen and what actually happens can be very different indeed. So asking immigration directly will be your best option. Good luck!

Are you sure that you need an apostille? Thailand is not a signatory to the Hague Apostille Convention, so apostilles are not officially accepted here. Documents have to be legalised instead, which has a similar purpose but is a slightly different process. If it's just for local administration (for a school, for example), they might be happy to accept the apostille anyway. However, for immigration or other official government purposes, legalisation would usually be required instead.

There's a Mail Boxes Etc kiosk near the bank section in EmQuartier. I've done email to print stuff there. I'd imagine other MBE do it as well.

It's not often I find another HMHB fan in the wild! But for actual sad lyrics, Terminus is brutal, though they still manage to get a few laughs in there.

Tinned haggis? That's so wrong. It's frozen, but at least it's not tinned. https://bangkok.sloanes.co.th/product/haggis/ Let me know what it's like if you try it. This is the black pudding. https://bangkok.sloanes.co.th/product/black-pudding/

Have you tried the ones from Sloanes? I've not tried the haggis, but their black pudding is good.

Check with British Council in Thailand first. BC can legalise UK education documents in some countries.

Having worked with EF in other countries and seen how this survey is implemented, I would give zero credence to the findings. It is a purely commercial process designed to get the results they want in each country. (I'm not claiming Thailand is any better or worse than the supposed ranking, as I have no evidence either way.)

Thanks all, he's going to ask for a letter to be sent out. He seemed to think he'd be in some kind of trouble with the embassy if they knew how he'd renewed it.

I'm posting this for someone else. He's fairly sure he's screwed up, but I said I would ask if there is an obvious fix. Brit working in Thailand with a Smart T visa + extension. His UK passport needed to be renewed, and there are still long waits for overseas renewals. He did an urgent renewal online, sent his passport back to the UK with a relative, and they were able to pick his new passport up for him and bring it back to Thailand. Now he has his old, cancelled passport (corner cut off), which has his visa, extension and stamps in, and a brand new completely empty passport. He started getting the paperwork together to transfer stuff over, but he needs a transfer letter that he should have got from the British Embassy (I think? I'm not exactly sure who the letter was from). If he had renewed it properly, he would have got the letter automatically, but because of his shenanigans, he hasn't got one. Is this transfer letter essential? Will the British Embassy issue one given that he shouldn't have renewed like this in the first place? What options does he have to fix this? Thanks!

I don't know what happened with your booking at MedPark, but most of the hospitals that had paid-for Moderna seem to have got their supplies from the same batches, and they expired at the end of October/start of November.

Brexit won't be over until the English government comes up with a solution that doesn't put a border between Northern Ireland and England or between NI and Éire. But unless you are pitching for reunification, there isn't a solution, and there never was, so it will never be over. We'll just limp on in unfinished Brexit limbo forever.

I rent cars here quite a lot. I currently have something longer term with Fatboy's, https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063966303820 but I also had a good experience with http://www.bangkokrentacar.com My first choice for a weekly rental https://www.chiccarrent.com Chic are more expensive but they usually have good offers in the first few days of the month https://www.bizcarrental.com/ were recommended to me, but I haven't used them yet

Gamma Exotic will, but they've moved the clinic out from On Nut towards Nong Bon. I think Sukhumvit Veterinarians on Sukh 51 does as well. But as was already said, they will want a medical history with the animal first.

You may well be right. I didn't even know water monitors use euphemisms.

"Kittisak, 39, said he was minding his own business..." The water monitor is probably telling its mates the same thing.

I use a UK number, but as I say, I've never spoken to anyone. I've only ever used the chat. It wouldn't matter if you got disconnected because you can send messages asynchronously as well.
