  1. Flying domestically (UTP-HKT) this week. Flight is at 13:00. Tiny aircraft (ATR72) so not many pax to process. Is showing up at the check-in counter 60 min before the flight acceptable? Looked at email/e-ticket from Bangkok Airways but it says nothing about it. I just figure since the scamdemic delays in the check-in/airport processes etc. are no more, it's ok but I just wanna make sure. Also, Google maps says that it's about 45 min to get there by car if I leave around 11am - is this accurate? I'm staying in Soi Buakhao.
  2. I too disgust myself, but this is the exact reason I'm looking for economy therapists! Can't afford the pricey doctors in Agogos????
  3. Lol, ok so no 20 yr old beauty queens. Point taken. But is it really that bad? As long as the chassis is fairly slim and she has the right chromosome, I don't care too much if se looks like Quasimodo's slightly less ugly sister ????
  4. Bars way too noisy for me, so I'd like to try the famous alternative. Which part/stretch of beach rd. has the highest concentration of freelance therapists? My first time in town, so it would help if you added a landmark ("the 100 meters to the left and right opposite of Central" or something to that extent). I'm a pretty seasoned monger (Philippines/BKK/Patong, etc) so need for the usual obvious advice about security/disease etc......just want to know what the best stretch of road is. Thanks!
  5. I assume you mean actually visiting an immi office for ____reason, not going through immi at airport(s) leaving the country, right?
  6. Glad to hear this from one of the top experts on here. The only reason I was a bit nervous was because of the news reports the other day in relation to the whole yellow/red card thing on Poo-cat News where it was mentioned that a handful of furry-ners were either warned or fined (didn't specify in the article) for "not reporting their registered accommodations or residences. Thanks!~
  7. Millennial by any chance? :-))) Send the owner some flowers for being way too nice and refunding 20% too much.
  8. Arriving Phuket/HKT from an overseas flight as a newly minted Thai Elite program member. Having my Elite (PE) visa sticker added into my pp at HKT upon arrival. Will then spend the night in Patong at a friend's hotel. Will then fly to Pattaya the next day and stay in a hotel for a week. Will then return to Patong and live in a condo owned by another friend who happens to be out of country and for various reasons unable to do a TM30 for me neither on nor offline. Doing it myself is out of the question as well as I can not get any of the necessary docs. Question: if my friend (the Patong hotel owner) does a TM30 for me, I assume the Pattaya hotel will do one as well the following day. So when I return to Patong and stay at my friend's condo, can I just "ride" on the last one i.e. the one the Pattaya hotel did for me? Alternatively, I could have my hotel owner friend help me out and do another one for me but since I will technically not be staying there except for the occasional errrrrr "short time" night when I don't want to go to the condo :-)..... Lastly - how strict is the 24 hr deadline rule? I.e. what if my condo friend can do the report about a week or 10 days after I have checked out of the Pattaya hotel/returned to Patong? Sorry for the long winded post. Normally I wouldn't sweat this too much but I don't fancy getting in trouble for something this asinine after dropping a mil for TE.
  9. BIL is really your WBF (I'll let you/others decipher the obvious 555).???? But really, you can either bleat along permanently like a good falang husband simp sheep, or ball up and set boundaries (literally and figuratively). Politely of course. If that doesn't work.....the Philippines' official slogan is "It's better in the Philippines" and quite frankly most of my friends who married Filipinas don't have these specific TITssues.
  10. "Screen shot of approval" - you mean tm30.io shows you a screenshot of the ACTUAL official immi website's confirmation/approval, or do you mean you took a screenshot of an "approval" that is generated soley by tm.io ?
  11. Good question, I wouldn't necessarily just trust a non-official website's "confirmation" message.....
  12. Ok, serious question: Please define "Unlimited Free Massage all over Thailand. ( HealthLand, Lets Relax, Oasis etc.) ".... You mean I can walk into the Let's Relax branch next to my condo and stay there getting rubbed all day for the next 10,20,30+yrs??? That alone would be worth triple the asking price!
  13. The frozen pizzas from BigC taste like like baked 2nd trimester donkey miscarriages. Central's Tops supermarkets have ok selections but very pricey, close to the already sky high Italo resto prices.
  14. ....are about as useful as DDs on a bull.????
  15. From the article: "CT scans and continued tests then tragically revealed that Jay’s brain function is now minimal." If he's basically braindead now, it's probably sensible to unplug the potato and avoid further unnecessary costs. Frees up space for the next irresponsible tourist road kill. Sorry, my empathy account balance for tourist behavior has eroded to zero over the years.....
  16. So I have this 18k gold chain that I bought years ago in Japan (about 300grams in weight), and I'm getting to an age (maturity?^^) where I no longer have any interest in wearing/keeping any kind of "rob me/look at me" jewlery. Will local gold shops buy this for resale or smelting purposes? At all? At somewhat of the current market buy/sell market rate? At a total ripoff rate because a) it's not "Thai" gold, or the preferred 'soft' shiny 24k, and b)white boy tax? TIA~
