  1. Thanks for the replies. I think a combination of Travellers Cheques and bank cards as a backup will work best.

    Son't forget they will have to pay commission when they purchase the TC's and pay again when they change them in Thailand.

  2. Favourite place) Bangkok/Cha-Am, sorry can't decide

    Least favourite place) Pattaya.

    I'm sorry but I keep on reading about all the pollution in BKK and I have to say, what pollution? I've been there at different times of the year and can't say I've ever noticed it.

  3. This thread should be closed because common sense is not Thailand related

    Neither is the wacko jacko post but I see that is still running although if you dare to criticise him your post will be removed.

  4. OMG - RIP Michael.

    The first record I ever bought as a child was a Jackson 5 small 45 disc, and the first dancer that ever truly held me in awe was Michael Jackson. If you ever see the old black & white Motown audition film of Michael as young child auditioning and dancing with his brothers, you will quickly understand that he was a singular talent of a century. I'm sorry things went so badly for him in his later life.

    RIP King of Pop. No one even came close.

    Rubbish !!! There is and probably never will again be only one 'King '

  5. Hi,

    I live in a townhouse in a moo baan. We have space outside the townhouse to park our car. There is space for each townhouse to park their car.

    We have had some problems lately with people parking outside our house. First of all we can hardly get into our own house when someone parks outside

    and second we can't park our own car and have to find a place outside the moo baan because I don't want to disturb my neighbors parking my car outside their house.

    We recently got a traffic cone to place outside the house in hope that people would stop parking in front of our house but that doesn't seem to help. They will basically

    just remove the cone to the side.

    So I'm wondering what are the usual rules for parking spots in a moo baan. Is it my spot ? or can anyone claim it ? I live in a rented townhouse.

    Appreciate the help

    Block them in with your car?

  6. I am planning to come in to BKK for some shopping and entertainment, and have been overwhelmed with the choices of hotels, and locations. I want to do some shopping, and go out for entertainment in the evenings, so I thought Sukhumvit would best suite my needs. I got a rate of 1600 baht per night including breakfast, and I was wondering if this is the my best choice, or if any of the TV members can give another recommendation.

    Thank you in advance for your suggestions, and comments.

    First you need to deside whay you want your room for.

    When I look for a room all I want is a clean room a comfy bed and good air-con, couldn't give a monkey's about breakfast, free wi-fi or anything else.

  7. My son was born in Phuket and i've already got the Citizenship organised for him and now need to complete the passport application.

    I've filled out all the details and only require an Australian to go as a Guarantor for me, is anyone happy to sign for me? Anyone that is please PM me as I'll need your Family Name, Given Names, Passport Number and Passport Expiry Date to enter online before I can print it. When I arrive back in Bangkok on the 3rd of July maybe I can meet you somewhere to sign the paper and also the two photographs.

    I would get the Doctor that performed his birth to sign although I will not be back in Phuket for a month and don't wish to pay for needless flights to Phuket and back.

    What about somebody at the embassy?

  8. Our son wqs due on a Sunday which according to the wife is very bad luck but he was 2 days late so she was hapy enough. She's started all the same rubbish with our son but I knocked that on the head straight away, if she wants to belive it then that's up to her but she's not gonna have him worrying about bad spirits and all that crap.

  9. Hi folks,

    I am married to a thai and have a son 7 month old ,i have got him a thai passport and am now thinking about his English registration and passport. Do i have to do this in thailand or can it be done in england as i am leaving in June for a two month period. Also i would like to know if anyone can advise

    on a little problem. My wife bless her has the thai habit of daytime sleep and now James my son has

    the same habit which would be ok But he doesent sleep well at night now. :) So do i leave em too it or

    try to get Wan my wife to change her sleeping habits ? :D Any help appreciated Thanks...

    Can't help with the passport but in regards to your wee laddie, do you work? If not why don't you take him out during the day and leave your wife to sleep then gradualy he'll get in to a routine of sleeping at night although if your wife is feeding the bairn alone then that will dictate a lot.

  10. I am a British national travelling to the UK in July with my two daughters. They both have British passports and Thai passports. Their Thai mother will not be travelling with us. Do I need any signed paperwork from my wife in order for my children to leave Thailand? Also, should they leave Thailand on their Thai passports and enter UK on thier English passports?

    Any help anyone can offer would be great.

    I'm sorry but why would you think that you would need permission from your wife to take your kids out of Thailand?

    Do you think your wife would need your permission if she wanted to take the kids out of Thailand?

    They are as much your kids as your wifes, sorry if it seems if I'm having a go at the OP, I'm not, it just gets my back up that men are constantly told that their wives are more important when it comes to their kids and now men are starting to believe it.

  11. Walking street Pattaya, not many big names but great action, way better than Lumpini.

    Brigante7.

    I hope you're joking! :)

    WS is tourist stuff.

    RAZZ

    No I'm not, after going to Lumpini and not being very impressed with the quality of the fights, I was in Pattaya and sat and watched a succession of very angry thai boxers batter seven shades of shit out of each other in the ring on walking street. Just my personal opinion.

    Brigante7.

    WS is like WWF wrestling, a show, a gimmick. They're not real fights at all.

    RAZZ

    Then I must have been lucky because I can assure you the fights I saw on walking street were very real. I would compare walking street to unlicensed bxing and Lumpini to licensed, unlicensed way more exciting.

    Brigante7.

  12. You probably just got lucky with the quality.

    he really don't know what hes talking about even the Thai boxers in walking street would die laughing at suggesting there in the same league as the Lumpini boxers :)

    I didn't say they were in the same league, I said the fights were more exciting, not the same thing. Take football, technicaly Spanish and Italian football is the better football but English football is more exciting to watch.

    Congratulations mate but didn't your wife get her ILR visa there and then when she went for her interview and submitted her documents? We were in and out of the Glasgow immigration in 90 minutes and left with my wife's ILR in her passport.

    Sorry, it just occured to me that you must have posted your missus's ILR application. I wish we had posted, would have saved £200, robbong cu_nts.
