I arrived at my house in Nong Chok Bangkok at 9.00 am this morning. I then swung into action and looked everywhere I may have put my passport along with 3 Thai bank books. Her indoors found it where I didn't even look. Without playing the Thai blame game I thanked her and left it at that. We've been married for 25 years and she has a habit of picking up things that aren't hers and never putting things back to where she found them. Anyway I'm so relieved as a replacement Aussie visa is around 5,500 baht and all the bull<deleted> notifying the police and the Australian Immigration Department in Bangkok. So thanks all for your constructive replies, it was very much appreciated.
