    Don't fly through Dubai or Abu Dhabi (maybe others in the ME) with Tramadol unless you are carrying some medical paperwork for it.

    A Wise transfer will show up on your statement (not in the book) as "รับเงินธุรกรรม ตปท" which Google translates to "receive money from Foreign transactions". Make sure you print the statement in Thai as the English version will say "Trade Finance Deposit". In my experience this will occur irrespective of the reason you give Wise for the transfer. I used Kasikorn statements for my last extension, no issues.

    Motorbike taxi's are also there. Last time I took one to my hotel. I offered 100 baht, she declined, "120, because you're fat". Fair enough.

    A 90 day report is done when you are in the country for 90 days. You won't be. So there is no issue. Just start counting when you return, the day you arrive is day 1.

    Depends on the office you use but will either be 30 or 45 days before your current extension expires.

    I suspect the economic impact on the city may fall below expectations when the crew of this vessel hit town.

    No need to look there now.

    Are these people only holding buckets of cash? With a bank account in the country they are working in it would be a rather trivial transaction.

    How about the elephant sanctuary or whatever it was, back in business?

    There is, it's even in this thread. Seems to show absolutely nothing.

    My recommendation would be to apply for the non-O in the UK before you come back. It's an e-visa, minimal documents, and can be obtained in a matter of a few days. Saves a trip to immigration and also avoids silly questions about onward tickets at check in.

    A what?

    Ben Ransom, according to a newspaper.

    A passport is all the ID you need, and you can top up online, at 7-11, at ATM's or through the phone app. You only need to work out what you want the SIM for, i.e., phone calls or data (or both) and buy an appropriate package, if you buy from the airport vendors there is some chance they may be able to sort you out with a reasonable package, buying in 7-11 you won't get that assistance.

    I use Traveloka to check flight prices. They are an Indonesian based operation. I have completed bookings on their site a few times but most often use them to check pricing only and then book with the airline directly. Normally the airline price is within +/-5% of the Traveloka price.

    If they can get rid of your dirty oil then go for it, age is irrelevant.

    Best and easiest = taxi. Cheapest = free shuttle.

    Wouldn't the wife have to go along to get that also?

    I have changed bank account addresses without anything other than a hand written note, they don't seem really interested, and never send any mail anyway. And your driving licence will get updated when you renew it. So I would not bother with anything until/if needed.

    Not only Pattaya, it's a DLT requirement; https://www.dlt.go.th/en/two-year-license

    At least the photo was actually related to the story for a change, and what a fun party that looked. There are some on fayboo so it must be real.

    No they didn't. Some banks take t days, mine doesn't. Try reading.

    Grow up? He has, and earned the right to do exactly what he wants. If he is actually a tourist the chances are he's already back in blighty now being miserable again for another year or so.
