  1. Some of you whiners do realize there are people who work and run business?facepalm.gif

    Yes i am waiting to get my hands on one, why? not because it does not make me coffee, but because i need it for business, emails, skype, translator, and many other features.

    Why am i going to upgrade to 6? because its faster and has even more useful features i need.

    So stop whining,if you do not need a smart phone or if you can not afford one, you really do not need to make silly comments

    My 6,000b Android phone does all of that.

    Oh and it's a similar shape and size to the iPhone 6 (4.7) so I must be really smart as I saved 16,000 baht!

    I'm keeping my note 3

    Dawn good phone.

    People just want to be apple slaves.

    Once you try Android. It's hard to go back to Apple

  2. Used Etihad once at Xmas. But had to fly to Dublin on aer lingus then to Abu Dhabi.

    They was promoting their new route.

    Saved a bit for that time of year.

    Aer lingus., would you like a coffee sir that will be 2 euros or something would you like to buy a teddy bear would you like to buy this would you like to buy that.

    Luckily only an hour flight.

    Like the idea of stopping in Amsterdam.

    When I gave up Thai Airways. My plan was to use multiple airlines and stopover for a night or two. In places I've never been.

    Ie use jet Airways and stop in bombay.

    Or Egypt air and stop in Cairo.

    But got addicted to etihad air miles.

  3. most westerners don't get the family thing.

    Thais Indians Asians in general love the their families

    What went wrong in the uk was firstly the welfare system.

    Then the building of flatlets.

    If you look at the uk. In general not all. Kids move out of the family house and forget about mom and dad.

    It's easy in UK to go on your own. If you don't succeed. No probs.

    Get welfare housing benefit.

    But in se Asia and India. You need that fallback on family if things go wrong.

    Because there's no government help.

    It's easy for us to say get a job.

    But for most thais with no education. Your getting peanuts. For a hard days work.

    You can not compare the West with the east

  4. If you both go to the amphur and agree.

    She needs id card and you need passport.

    No translation or legitimising needed for passport.

    Palad amphur may insist the attachments for kids and shattles be translated.

    As you have neither kids or belongings together.

    Should be straight forward.

    So there is no need for legalisation of the passport? The article I read was very clear this did need to be done, but of course it could have been bull and I can't remember where I saw it now!

    Depends on the Amphur some are helpful others are downright obstructive and make up their own rules as they go along.

    Ladprow kaet. Complete dicks

    Won't do anything without making it difficult.

    Thonburi perfect. At least willing to help in any situation

  5. One more time people do not know what they are talking about.

    OP you are right i checked hundred tracking numbers tonight and sometimes I had to try 5 times to get the tracking result in English.

    Just go back in your browser and slide the stupid tool again, then you will get your tracking results in English.

    I have had hundreds of packages too and it always came out in English.. so maybe your not as computer literate as others or we are just lucky.

    I want to give special thanks to the user that posted that app, just installed it put in a tracking nr for a foreign parcel (so far it does not come up) but that is normal it only comes up once it hits Thailand.

    We are talking here about EMS.

    Glad you like it.

  6. I'm extended crb checked every 3 years.

    But when you apply for it you need to put what organisation is asking for it.

    You can only get basic crb for yourself.

    And in UK it's now dbs.

    https://www.gov.uk/disclosure-barring-service-check/overview

    So if the Thai embassy was to introduce this. ( not sure if they can)

    One copy goes to them.

    Like the previous poster we've all done silly things when we were young

    The probably only looking for murderers rapists paedophiles.

    Most convictions apart from the former 3 are spent after 6 years however on an extended criminal records check they will always be there

  7. Mate. You are who you are.

    Don't think too much about it.

    I UK RE : racism. we've come a long way since I went to school.

    In Thailand I always hear he's black she's white.

    Thais do seem to be bothered more about the colour of one's skin.

    When you get older you'll look back and see this as funny

  8. Yes he's Asian. But he's a British subject.

    And I know a few English. ( white) who love a false insurance claim.

    Brits are famous for it.

    Amazing one guy is dodgy and a whole race is condemned.

    So if he was Charlie from the east end.

    Would all English be condemned?

    You don't think other countries have insurance fraud? Take it you never worked in insurance.

    Unfortunately one bad apple ...................

    Brits are only famous for this in your mind, which explains one of your stereotypes.

    Some British of Asian origins have a propensity for white collar crime, such as insurance fraud and tax dodging. I know many British Asian businessmen who consider that a "victimless" crime and see it as part of the game. In the same way they don't honor contractual payment terms. Not all by any means but a significant proportion albeit a diminishing one.

    Regular occurrences in India too where many have strong ties.

    Actually I'm not the one stereotyping.

    He could be black. Asian or white or Chinese.

    He is 2 bob.

    But loads starting attacking him because he's Asian

    If your a count then your a count.

    Makes no odds where your from.

  9. And Cameron gonna use this to scare us so he can go with the USA and bomb

    Iraq and Syria because assad won't play with the West.

    We sold the gas to saddam to gas the kurds.

    Now we want to arm the kurds.

    All about shell /BP oilfields in kirkuk.

    The kurds will fight to the death because they want a homeland.

    And hopefully they will play ball with us.

    The wahabi. Are the real nutters here.

    They like polpot want to turn back the clock to yesteryear.

    And the wahabi 's come from Saudi.

    Root all the nutters and you come to Saudi Arabia.

    I drove the arabs in london for many years before.

    They make us infidels look like saints
