It would only need to be valid for 30 days to apply for a Thailand Pass.

Thanks - do you happen to know what the reasoning is behind it being 30 days?

Also would you have to register with Thailand Pass?

Finally, is two vaccinations "fully vaccinated" or do you need three?

Sorry for all the questions...

Medial insurance will not be required.

The only insurance needed is the covid 19 insurance for entry to the country.

If you had an ED visa and 12 month extension of stay, with (say) 6 months remaining, and were entering the country with a re-entry permit:

How long would the covid insurance need to be valid for?

What happens when it runs out (I gather you can't re-apply for this insurance while within Thailand)?

etc...

634 baht of LPG warrants 3 free bottles of water?

My 1,000+ baht only gets two. That's the real crime here.

I haven't tried either, but one these may help with Start Menu and Taskbar/Toolbar issues:

Where I live, Goodyear Assurance Duraplus 2 were about 7,200b for a set of 185/55/15, a year or two ago.

For the hose ends, not the gun...?

Yes, but at the gun end who's to say whether it's for the hose or for the gun.

Did you accept the offer of currency conversion?

I think they then put VAT on top as well.

It is Thais...not Thai's. 

 

Maybe we need to correct our own bad grammar/spelling and/or learn to speak fluent Thai before we go too far down the path with our Thai friends.  I personally get a kick out of listening to some of the pronunciations and interpretations that Thais use.

Isn't it actually Thais'?

When last year ?
Payment was made at time of application

Around March I think. Presumably you gave VFS your card details.

Last year I handed over my application to VFS Global and it was sent within 3 days or so. I had to pay their fee at the time of application..........

They often driven in two lanes simultaneously, so if no lights and seen at the last second there might not have been anywhere for the pickup to go (regardless of whether he was drunk/speeding etc).

I am insured by Axxa, have been since day one of my then new, now 12 year old, Vigo truck. Never a problem to renew, nor with the very few claims I have had - none of which are down to me, I might add. Indeed, their service has been above and beyond the cover.

I had the same with a different insurer - at about 15 years they downgraded me to third party fire and theft. On the upside the premium was lowered by about two thirds.

This news story was far duller than I was expecting.

I may have had a mild case of covid toe 4 days after my first injection. Not sure if it was a side effect of Pfizer, or I caught covid at the vaccination place.

Faced with this issue I recently bought lots of different brands/models from lazada/shoppee/jdcentral. All cheap, and normally made for the asian/third world market. Typically have to buy them 2 to 3 sizes bigger than normal. Eventually I found a brand/model that I was happy with. The advantage is that in the future I can buy more of the same easily and cheaply. The one I chose normally costs about 90b each (or double that in Robinson/Central). In my case it was an international brand (Jockey), albeit an asian model. I probably only spent 2000b on this experiment, while previously I was spending some multiple of that every couple of years.
