People will continue to fill in the digital TM 6 with information that will not be checked. So how is it helping the authorities? We used to describe the data from computers as 'garbage in garbage out'

All these TAT reports of millions of tourists spending billions of baht. Yet still no public toilets?

TM6 Is there a photocopy machine on arrival? How many signed copies to they need?

Not much info from Imdb..........so here's my take......... A great festive binge. Filmed over 10 years with12 seasons = 65 x45min of individual dramas. Set in NW England with optional English subtitles (regional accents). Some episodes are written for wimmen', but all are watchable with the family. No gun battles, no cops 'n' robbers, no corrupted governments or police, no car chases, no swearing, no nudity, no mafias, no cartels, no CIA, no gangstas, no bro's in da hood selling crack and no computer generated tricks. Just acting skills using well known British actors. Available from seeder named .BONE (galaxy & tpb) 19.4 Gb. Happy New Year.

Well who knows how many tourists were ever/never arrested? Only someone connected to the authorities would have that info.

With the exception of Buddha days, there is always beer available at Pattaya beach. The problem is do you pay the vendors 50% more to get served a large bottle, with a glass and a bucket of ice ? Or, do as the Thais and buy everything from 7/11. I've seen the vendors go ballistic when the foreign tourists dares to brings his own. As an aside, I remember there were strict laws about lighting up fags a few years back (huge fines & imprisonment). Now annoyingly, people smoke everywhere, with toxic clouds under the umbrellas when there is no breeze. Life used to be simple in Pattaya.

What about dominoes in a public bar?

Are foreigners taken for granted in Thailand? Not really, unfortunately we're taken as fools in a country where kindness and good manners are a sign of weakness.

In case anybody thinks any (possible) change is due to concerns for us aliens.....

Just like vintage ThaiVisa where members posted hints and tips to help each other, unlike posters nowadays. May I suggest https://livetv.sx/enx/ for all your football / sports needs.

So many Lonely Guys..... e.g. somebody that has to spend day after day creating new moron threads on this forum?

PEP is Post Exposure Prophylaxis, PrEP is Pre Exposure Prophylaxis. Either require you follow a specific protocol. (HIV) PrEP can be taken on demand and requires a double dose with 24h prior to exposure followed by one dose a day while active followed by two doses after the last exposure. Don't use without medical supervision anyway. If you have a good health cover you'll get a refund. "Commercial" kind of insurances might not as some pointed out. The Thai medical system makes them available to Thais. OP is quite happy with the Red Cross. A good ol'fashioned .....thank you for the info.

Very interesting, but I would like advice from here... rather than google. What is the difference between PEP and PrEP ? Are these pills taken before or after sex ? Do I need a doctor's prescription from a clinic / hospital ? Where are these available in Pattaya and are they expensive ? Thanks, and forgive my ignorance as I've never heard of these medicines before (hetro, but an old,old man).

What are the rules at Jomptien Immigration regarding my return to Thailand after a brief UK visit? My current OA (retirement) visa is valid until Feb 2025, with an already registered TM 30. I also have a single exit/re-entry stamp. Do I have to go immediately to Jomptien and re-register my address? Sorry to have to ask yet another simple question, but after 18 years of renewing my 'retirement' visa I now have brain fog with the constant-inconsistent churn of rules.

The Immigration Police (and their visa agency companies) wouldn't vote for this. A loss of many millions of under the table baht.

There was an erudite poster named Mobi (rip) who did a great job researching and sharing usufruct info with a thread in Real Estate, Housing, House and Land Ownership. I did a quick search on here, but I gave up. Maybe someone can find the thread. Good luck

Why Do Men From Scotland Come to Thailand to Find a Girlfriend? That's easy.... younger available women. When you are in your 50s/60s there is little chance of getting off with a woman half your age. Due to the welfare state, there is little need for sugar daddies in the UK. Most would not be seen dead with an old man. Easier to live here in Pattaya where judgement is limited, and boom-boom, yum-yum and ow-ow is unlimited.

Too many plastic posters mate. Being paid to post might make the forums seem busy. But they are frauds. They are imposters. Do 'you' think we can't recognise their continual drivel? Do 'you' think we are all fools? Thanks for the Visa section, nearly the only thing worth visiting........... IMHO of course.

Gordon Bennet!! We are talking about my elderly people here.. with lesser agile minds and bodies. My phone is a Motorola bought here and powered by True move. So can't change network, but I will try using WiFi calling. If all fails we will go to TucCom Thanks for the helpful ideas.

I have a visitor who came with only a 'Lebara' UK sim and no phone. I can't get the sim to work in my Thai phone. Any ideas folks? What to do?

"You might learn the complexities of the language before speaking of things you know nothing of." Wow ....big wordies... yet another posting 'bot perhaps?
