Depends whose minor it was and who the guilty party is I would think.

The title reminded me of the following incident: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Airways_Flight_9 I caught a lengthy radio interview with the captain of this flight many years ago, amazingly calm guy!!

LOL what a truly amazing story. Love this bit

Despite the lack of time, Captain Eric Moody made an announcement to the passengers that has been described as "a masterpiece of understatement":[3]

“ Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your Captain speaking. We have a small problem. All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get it under control. I trust you are not in too much distress. ”

:D

Shock horror not the police surely ?

There are software related problems as well according to Steve Wozniak co founder of Apple.

Wozniak cites 'scary' Prius acceleration problem

http://news.cnet.com/8301-13924_3-10445564...HeadlinesArea.0

"Toyota has this accelerator problem we've all heard about," Wozniak said. "Well, I have many models of Prius that got recalled, but I have a new model that didn't get recalled. This new model has an accelerator that goes wild but only under certain conditions of cruise control. And I can repeat it over and over and over again--safely."

"This is software. It's not a bad accelerator pedal. It's very scary, but luckily for me I can hit the brakes," he said.

Dont know about Ranong but I did it in December with border immigration in Nong Khai with no problems.

No NO NO do not pay and do not allow them to even mention the subject again.

Your right its not the GB embassys fault but it is flaming annoying.

The brirish embassy should come up with a system so we dont have to keep having stamps in the passport then maybe they will last a few years longer.

I hear you there. Obtained a new passport December and did a visa run to Laos for a non o and they managed to use up 6 pages by the time I was done !!!

Exactly, no charge for the service so they cant be arsed even though they were not busy.Donation expected.

Is it not obvious, they were after a donation.

Same here, I take it for flying and get them from Dr in the UK, normally get 10. This is just a money/keep this system oiled arrest.

If no laws were broken ever do ya think the police here would not arrest people ?

No this is child labour. Teaching them to do it and giving them the knowledge is good.Turning a school into a business venture is not.

I think you will find most of the kids over the age of 10 know what they need to "succeed"in life in Thailand.

Which is to be lucky enough to be in the right family or have the right connections.

At last, tuk tuk mafia will not be pleased !!

Just been reading your 4+ years marriage thread torrenova and this also applies to my situation in that we have been married for 7 years and living together outside the UK for 2.5 years constantly.

Do you have to specifically apply for this provision when applying for the settlement visa or is it a case of doing the KOL test and applying for Ilr early in the UK because you can show you have been married for 4+ years.

Thanks for that interesting stuff. I always presumed that if you intended to claim benefits for yourself they would deny your wife the visa.

Why would I be able to claim for the child who is not mine and what is the timescale they work to i.e. they want to see I have enough money to support wife and her child for how many weeks/years ?

My situation

Married in Thailand with no job or income at present living off savings,now approximately 11000 pounds.

Wife has 3 daughters A B C.

Eldest daughter A is 17 and has a Thai father and will be staying in Thailand anyway.

Daughter B is mine and has Uk passport and birth certificate.

Daughter C I have treated as my own and has no father on the birth certificate because he ran away and never came back before she was born.(Dutch)

I wish to return to the UK and take my family with me. I have no job at present but have savings as stated above and no accommodation of my own but will have the support/help of retired relatives who live alone in a 4 bedroomed house.

What is my best course of action ?

I popped into the pullman to ask about christmas food and its 450 baht for xmas LUNCH and 950 baht for DINNER.

Not too sure what that means as was in a hurry.

Is there anything stopping him transferring any assets he has into somebody elses name before you "win" ?

I have this imaginary QC department scene in my head for a lot of things here.

QC Inspector- " bad batch here boss , all fail !"

Boss -" but do they work at the moment ?"

QC Inspector- "yes but......"

Boss-"no worries we can send this lot to Thailand"

As usual no real answer to my question. This is why I find the articles, discussions and debates involving politics and democracy totally pointless. When you have a group of people that can, if they so please, destroy +80% of the populations lives then do you believe that the people really care that much who leads them ?

This is what I mean by running amok

Your not the only one..

Why does he need anything on anybody ? Maybe he is demanding 300k because he can. He arrests someone for *insert crime and who does the courts believe ? I would imagine guilt or innocence does not even enter into it.

I have asked this question before and never got a response.What stops the police here totally running amok ?

Nope I use avast.

DNS

1. 202.69.137.137

2. 202.69.137.138

Was using these settings and switched to open DNS which cured it. Now switched back again and everything is back to normal.
