I am slightly short of the monthly amount for marriage visa Wife's income is not allowed.and no way do I have 400,000THB for a visa I used the money to build my house, 3 years ago on wife's family land. Now I have a house a wife and no where to live. She earns us both a living by farming Tilapia. Paying others to feed and tend them. Where to now?

Remember that the dual entry visa expires 90 days after issuance. So only 30 day ext is possible on the first of the two 60 day visas.

Thank You. Very informative post I must say. Could be included in a travelogue.

JB

Yep, try beer bread (goggle it) works for me only need to turn around half way or it gets burned.

Thanx for the replies guys, I will get the pump & diaphragms then.

JB

Thanx 555, I will add an aquarium pump. Do you think that will help?

The problem here is the number of power outs that we have now with all the lightening storms. They range from 20 mins to half a day some times.

According to the following document from Philippine Council for Agriculture this simple system from Taiwan Ag website about a Philippines government initiatve works well the production figures are given too, for a small installation. Please let me know if any one has tried this system and how well it works without a greenhouse here in LOS.

Philippines Ag website

I'm sure the URL will pass the forum rules but if the mods remove it them them just google:

"SNAP Philippine Council for Agriculture" (Don't flame me, google is now a common verb - no capitalisation required.)

Thanx

Yakult Scam : QUOTE (Carib @ 2009-06-16 09:28:45) Have a problem with the sugar, ... Yakult scam in amazing Thailand land of smiles and grumpy farangs ...

Thanks for the advice guys & lady.

Just to let you all the poultry are doing well except for the turkeys. One went walkabout, maybe got killed like his sister, by a mongoose. Last weekend. I actually saw a mongoose scramble up the chicken wire and attack the turkey, by the time I got to the run it was off with turkey in mouth. Oh well sh&^ happens, the turkey was too much of a turkey to get out of the way of a hungry mongoose.

The geese now 'own' the yard and as you guys said - a noisy bunch - but they have enough space to forage in. The geese are not coming back to sleep in their enclosure at night and refuse to get herded in. They prefer staying out over night it seems. The food, water and cover doesn't seem to entice them.

The pheasants now come home to roost at night in their own enclosure after harassing the other birds daytime.

Bina, thankfully no children. Mt wife has told me what the Thais feed to the geese when the husband gets a bit too randy and thinks of taking on a 'mia nooi', so I have been warned!

Bayboy, they were Kiwis, two have died and there is one left. I saw yesterday when we went to get more ducklings, that's all we got this time.

Ozzydom & chinavet thanks for the advice, I have not seen a snake around since the geese were let out, not that they bother us anyway. They also keep the neighbours goats away too.

The OP is not asking about a tourist visa, but about extensions of stay for someone who entered with a non-immigrant O.

Sorry, not even pi$$ed so no excuse for not reading properly.

The problem is that the two visas have an expiry date which is only 3months from issue, you are allowed one 60day extension on each Visa So your second tourist visa will not be valid when you do your BR.

BUT unless you are willing to do a Consulate trip every 120days for a new tourist visa...

you are pretty much between the 8 ball and the cushion.

I have just done my second visa's extension with a page stapled in saying that I must report by 15 July for 90day reporting, I would have thought that the extension form gives my address for the next 60days. So that is this officers interpretation of the rules. Never done that before.

Thanx for that Ubonjoe I have emailed the Consulate and got this standard reply by some one who obviously did not understand the question which I explained thoroughly. Part of which is quoted FYI.

"The Australian Embassy can not help you to get entry permits or visas, visa extensions or work permits for Thailand or other countries. Make sure you obtain visas, entry permits and extensions of stay from Thai immigration authorities or a Thai Embassy or Consulate."

There is also a post from Sunbelt dating back to Dec. 2006 which says that they only give Statutory Declarations (the blanks they supply) I was just wondering if this is still the current practice.

I am about to go to the Australian Embassy for a letter of income received from Australia.

Does any one know what I need to take with me - besides my passport, how much does it cost and how long does it take?

The income is from investments there in a roll-over fund.

Thanx Guys

Thanx for the valuable feedback and comments guys, so far they are reasonably quite but the poop droppings are getting bigger and the honking is getting louder as they are growing. They seem to forage quite well and the male seems to like the pond, but not the female.

Did they really have a pair of Kiwis for sale at the place where you bought your birds?

Yes Bayboy They were motley looking chicks when I asked about it the said 'Nok Jing jo' which I took to mean Australian Birds. The only Australian bird I know that is a big bird of that size is an Emu. When I questioned them they showed me the parents - they were Kiwis I thought. "Yea I am the expert at nothing" - but that's what I thought they were, they could have been a Thai version of Big Bird. They had all sorts of large and flightless birds as well.

Thanks Ozzydom & Chinavet, Great advice I will let you know how it goes.JB

Last week my wife and I went to the Royal Farm on the Prachinburri Chachensao border to get some - as she calls them farm ducks - Muscovy I would say, to cross-breed with her Khakis. To shorten the story, we returned with a pair of black and white geese (the male with splayed wing-tips). Three turkeys 2F/1M. Three Pheasants also 2F/1M. With the "farm ducks" too. Also about 30 ducklings (khaki). Good thing she did not have enough money with her or she would have bought a pair of ostriches, a pair of kiwis and a pair of emus as well. They were for sale too at about TBT8,000 each bird. No amount of badgering would get me to go back for them as we could not get them on the same day as the ATM limit is THB25,000 per day. (Phew! That was close.).

Now what the heck do we feed them and what else do we need to look into. We have the 8 birds in the same run, they seem to be getting along well so far, we are feeding them duck feed and have added some molasses to the water. I have done some 'googling' and but for the making sure they are kept warm, out of the snow (as if) (all North American sites). There is also an article on foraging for the geese, which I am loath to do as we have a dog that loves to PLAY and has managed to kill a few chickens in his day, just playing. Maybe I should pen the dog and let the geese out.

I might add that we or rather the wife keeps about 80 ducks and some chickens too in a separate run.

Any advice will be appreciated - Thanx

That's a 3 month Cambodian visa for $25, and freebie 14 days exempts on the Thai side. Half a tank of gas in the CBR every 2 weeks and a short 130k round trip.

Sweet

Check the FAQ it states:

"Is the Visa valid for single entry or for multiple entries within the period of validity?

It is valid for single entry only. "

So this means $25 per crossing. Just change your calculations - but maybe still worth while.

Thanx Lop, I need to go on Monday.

Lopburi3,

What is the position with getting an entrance Visa (into lets say Cambodia) on a public holiday?

Thanx

Refreshing !!!!!

Thanx for the replies guys, now I will have to make arrangements to park it at Friendship Bridge.

JB

I am going to Lao for my 2x Tourist Visa and I am willing to take 2 others with me (Mazda 4x4, 4door pickup).

I leave from Nakhon Nayok via Saraburi, Lopburri etc so can pick up along the way too. Maybe BKK as well.

Diesel sharing could be arranged or if you are really skint give me a PM anyway.

JB

My GF has a car with finance and the financier has the blue book.

How can we obtain a Tabien Rot to cross the Lao border for a few days without this? If at all possible.

Thanx

JB
