  1. I believe that once you use an agent, then the 90 day reporting has to go via the immigration office that the visa was obtained from. I had the same 'problem' in that I 'obtained' a retirement visa via an agent in Pattaya but was living in Korat. 90 days had to be done via Pattaya. I once tried to do it in person in Korat and it raised so many questions from immigration officials that steered clear from them from there on in.
  2. Many moons ago a rental place in Chiang Mai tried to take my passport.... I said you can have a photocopy but no more. I ended up going to another place close by, cheaper and better bike. It pays to shop around
  3. Time for Mr K-nut to go to the K-nackers yard. Sorry but your time is up
  4. I saw my doctor the other day.... and a showed him a rash on my bum. He completely ignored me and kept pushing his shopping trolley down the aisle in Tescos
  5. All he had to say after being nabbed was "bugger me".... Methinks his wish will be granted.
  6. The car lost control, they could tell by the skid marks.... The same applied to the driver
  7. Korat Kiwi replied to Briggsy's topic in The Lounge
    Stella also known as the wife beater brew... Horrid stuff. Belgium beers are great
  8. Blue bottles... Yep they tend to sting a bit. Not sure which is worse that or a hornet sting. Had both and neither was enjoyable. Hornet sting lasted longer.
  9. New visas for retirees... Also to be known as a lifetime visa, except after you have one we will change the definition of lifetime to mean 13 months from date of application. After which time a new visa will be dreamt up which will endeavour to empty any remaining funds from your bank account.
  10. That too is quite a possibility. Can cause certain muscles to clamp up when taken by surprise.
  11. That's one kick asse rear tyre on that bike. Ducati Diavel maybe. Just proves, you can be a safe rider but some drivers either don't see you or don't give a stuff. Hopefully the rider has proper licence so the authorities don't use that to prosecute him... although if he wasn't in the country etc etc. Hospital costs are likely to be huge, maybe the driver will be held responsible. Not holding my breath on that occurring.
  12. I expect Golden Showers are probably more expensive... and you don't get clean. You're dirty very dirty...
  13. Robinson and a few other places have Meyer sets that have saucepans/lids and frying pan. All in stainless steel. The particular model I had for years was the Meyer Classico. Can be used on induction cookers/stoves Good thick base not like some of this thin tinny <deleted>e that burns everything even if you put a candle under it. Good to buy when Robinsons have a sale
  14. How do these people get thru immigration? They are seen as tourist dollars, that's how. The almighty buck/dollar/baht rules supreme in Thailand.
  15. Misunderstanding his dying father’s advice, Arnie spent several years protecting the family mules.
  16. Scene from Dinner on Elm Street
  17. Gary Larson (cartoonist) had quite the conundrum with this cartoon. There are no penguins in the Artic nor Polar Bears in Antarctica. Still it's funny....
  18. “Well, this may not be wise on a first date, but I just gotta try your garlic wharf rats.”
  19. “I judge a man by the shoes he wears, Jerry.”
  20. 2 mk2 ford zephyrs and an 105e Angle box (Anglia). Don't make'm like that now son. Probably just as well too!
  21. I can attest to that.... with a face full of regret I may add!
  22. One found from a .303 would fix his addiction.
