From the Thailand Pass application itself....

In settings go to lock screen and turn off shortcuts. You can turn off both left and right or individual shortcuts as you like. That might sort it.

Presumably he got a 30 day visa exempt entry. He can get a 30 day extension of that relatively easily. After that he will likely have to hope that COVID extensions are still on offer and he can pretend to be trapped in Thailand.

I used to make my own frozen chips. Par boil, dry, fry once low temp. Then freeze. Fry high temp from frozen. Usually came out pretty well. I found that frying once did often brown them too fast and not crisp. Could also do the second fry from cool if not freezing.

Entry requirements also state that the PCR test has to be within 72 hours of arrival. If anyone actually checks that it could be an issue also.

For sure Medconsult in Bangkok offer them, THB500 rather than THB2000 for a PCR test.

Doesn't have to be PCR, it can also be a lateral flow test, cheaper and quicker. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/travel-to-england-from-another-country-during-coronavirus-covid-19

Na, it's now a foodies paradise. Lollipop is now "Nana Plaza's new Mexican restaurant with the hottest waitresses this side of Sinaloa." I'm certainly partial to a beef curtain burrito or a fish taco, but I will pass on the bars only offering hot dogs.

CDC; "You must be tested with a viral test that could be either an antigen test or a nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT)."

"Correction notice: A previous version of this article listed the age of Mrs. Thongbai as 21-years-old. She is 51-years-old."

When you go to the TG website to book your ticket it clearly informs you what you need to arrange before departure, based upon your vaccination status. In the case of the UK it is clear only those not vaccinated (or vaccinated with unauthorised vaccines) need a departure PCR test.

From the Thailand Pass website; Obtain a negative COVID-19 test result (RT-PCR), issued within 72 hours before travelling i.e., before departure.

Fear not, he's back;

To be fair, HMPO is only trying to recreate the UK domestic experience for everyone else. In the UK TNT/Fedex are the villains. https://www.which.co.uk/news/2021/11/passport-delivery-delays-and-failures-ruin-holidays/

Obviously Thai tourists first port of call is the Museum of Ice Cream. Personally I'll be found in the four floors...

There's a ghostly apparition in that garden.

It's catching on.....there is hope for the future after all....

Dec 1st? Nothing. Already moved to 16th.

Doesn't really matter as you replied to a 9 year old question.

To be fair though, they are all wearing masks.

You missed demanding. I was wondering whether that was more or less than instructing. Instructing does however suggest some knowledge of the subject so I guess must be a journalistic typo.

If using ordinary basil then add a little fresh mint. Still wont really replicate the real thing, personally I would keep searching!
