It is diving against the USD which is the benchmark..... can't blame Thailand for the actions of the UK government, they are spending money they have not got like drunken sailors. 

Ha Ha! Unlike the USA!!

Can't fix the country....nothing better to do!

I'm not offended but it shows their racist mentality!

Let's face it, I don't call them slopeheads or Chinks or Gooks or Banana's or Buddhaheads or Chonky's or Coconuts or Pancake face or Zipperheads!

Maybe we should!

Thailand does it their way! They know best!

Unfortunately, it is most likely controlled by the motherboard ie a chip. 

It is a fairly common fault.

This really cannot be repaired at a reasonable price.

Better off using external speakers.

Until they remove all of the nonsense then hardly anyone will come.

 

It's as simple as that.

 

They should watch what happens to Spain this coming summer, it's going to be carnage as Spain is replaced as the default destination for many UK tourists who will go elsewhere because it's easier and cheaper to do so.

 

The Spanish will relent, it's just a matter of time, but maybe they leave it too late for this year.

 

Quite right, my favorite destination is Thailand, as I'm writing this sitting in a bar at the Canary Islands!

Sums up Thailand!

I doubt this will happen in Thailand, they are 1st class at sucking up to Russia!

It will go up, but plenty of Russian fuel arriving for their friends!

What do we expect, an unelected military-run government turning against a murdering invading tyrant!

Shame on Thailand!  (You will be remembered!)

Your Thailand Pass will be valid to use for 72 hours after the date of arrival shown on it.

You have to change your arrival time by contacting the hotel.

Would I need a pre-departure jab in the UK before flying and maybe another pre-departure returning from Thailand to the UK?  Thanks for your help.

You're so important, Thailand could not possibly survive without you... Who is "We"?

Duh!! "We"as the general populace, understand now?

Meanwhile today, the UK announced :

"An autumn booster programme, aimed at a wide group of people, is planned later this year.

Money and love are the main causes I think.

But I will admit that I suffer from vertigo, I could never get near a balcony rail, I get dizzy almost immediately!

Use Thai superstition!

Make up a doll, a few pins in it etc, leave it at their front entrance hanging upside down....a few more tricks like this will work!

Just further issues etc.

They should state for all EU etc plus other countries....fully vaccinated and booster......LFT prior to boarding flight, no more hospitalisation in Thailand...end of.

I will book the following day for a month!

Have you noticed that anyone travelling away from home is now called a "Tourist"!!

As if Thailand has loads of them!!

That sounds on the low side. 100,000 miles (160,000 km) is barely run in for a decent diesel. You'd expect at least 200,000 miles (320,000 km) before starting to worry about things like this (assuming the diesel is adequately maintained).

Yes, I agree....that's why I wondered why he needs new glow plugs?

I've read many negative comments about this accident, however sand is a very dangerous issue in Thailand when riding motor bikes etc.  There has been many times when I've felt the rear tyre losing traction because of sand on corners etc.

Just saying, that's all.

Why do you need new glow plugs? 

I quote "The average life of a glow plug on a diesel engine is roughly 100,000 miles. So, it is not something you should have to worry about very often."

More likely another issue?

What utter rubbish news!

Most reputable charities etc, have a good working relationship with the local immigration offices....for example when I had an issue at Pattaya working for a Catholic charity, one of the top guys in white robes went with me to immigration, surprisingly you might think,  he was treated most highly respected, we were ushered into the big man's office and I was told only to show his business card if any further issues in the future.
