Before I moved here, I had some great holidays here in the rainy season. That was of course, before some clown decided global warming was a good invention to scam the masses.

I am going shopping tomorrow (Tues) and then I am intent on staying in until the mayhem is well and truly over. For all those who do not like Songkran, you have my sympathies.

I was told it was required on one occasion, so when I then went for the 90 day I had the update. However, I was not asked for it and did not offer. Never bothered since.

More likely to attack a kid or an old person if they got the chance than lay down their life for you, we see plenty of the former but next to nothing of the latter. So you are claiming people are no better than dogs? Dog owners probably.
Not claiming at all that people are no better than dogs, more the other way about. Most THAI people only keep a dog as an alarm, they have no idea of a dogs true worth. As said, look after a dog and the dog will look after you. But obviously your narrow minded view cannot grasp this fact. So, I have to assume, like most Thai's you are scared of dogs because you don't understand them.

If dogs are so great and mans best friend why do they need training at all? is it because without training they are even more nasty, violent and badly behaved? You dont have to train a cat so why train a dog if it's a domesticated animal. They are pathetically dependent pests and by nature very unpleasant to have around.
Not such a very nice thing to say about an animal that would lay down its life without hesitation, had you treated it as a friend and looked after it. But then, think also about your own first ten years of life? How do you think you would have developed without someone to train and care for you? Or did they!!!???

One good reason for Thailand to team up with Denmark and Sweden to fight corruption. The more the Thai's learn, the easier it will be for them to cover it up!

It also has a secret microphone and video camera so they can check in on you to make sure you are safe and best of all streams your entire stay to a "secure" server.
"secure" server. Would that be a trolley dolly?😀

Just because the UK has a 45% tax band, doesn't mean that all UK income is taxed at that rate. For example, if you import UK funds that were taxed in the UK at say 20% and the cumulative corresponding Thai tax for that category of income turns out to be 25%, you may pay an additional 5% tax in Thailand. If however your income is taxed at 45%, chances are you will not pay extra.
Ok. I can state quite categorically that the amount of tax you pay in the UK has no baring on the amount of tax you 'could' pay in Thailand. The amount of tax to pay in Thailand is calculated on the amount of Thai Baht you transfer each year to a Thai bank. There is also a very great possibility that if one is over 65 years of age, you may pay nothing. That of course would depend on the amount transferred.

The super glue sounds good to me. If you starve the wart of air it will usually dry up and fall out. Knives or razors should be a real No No.

This is not necessarily true, it will depend on the level to which that income is taxed.
Would you please clarify that statement. How much higher than 45% can the UK tax go?

You misunderstand....the Immi may be collecting data on monthly spend amounts by foreigners, so they can plan and cost new products and charges.
So keep everything to a minimum and confuse the hell out of the dumbo's.

Could be related to the incoming tax laws on foreign income. Wife was asked to complete a form at Bangkok bank related to all her income. Didn't take long as she has none. Staff said also related to new tax laws. Since then have not heard of anyone else having to do this. Maybe this is the start, no extension without declaring income and source. TIT
If you are over 65 yrs of age and ALL your income is taxed before receipt, you do NOT have to pay tax in Thailand. If you go to your local tax office to gain a tax ID PIN, you will be in the system and have to complete a tax return EVERY YEAR. If you don't have to, DON'T DO IT.

CM Immi. iends to adopt new Immi. rules and processes ahead of other provinces, I've witnessed this several times in the past when they've asked for something such as a copy of your lease and others have laughed at the idea. IF they are now asking for proof of where the money comes from, watch it, I wouldn't dismiss it out of hand, not for one moment.
If I am asked as to where my income comes from, they will be informed to contact the tax office, as that is their domain.The only thing immigration can possibly ask for is the 800/400K as proved in a bank, the rest of my income is none of their damned business.

So why do you insist on taking her there? She doesn't like the place, you obviously don't like the place. I'll give you a tip for free, STAY AWAY!

The PRIMARY function of any Government is the protection of the country's population from either external- or internal-factors.
The Prime-Minister has singularly failed in his duty-of-care to protect the health of the Residents of (and Tourists in) Chiang Mai.
A total dereliction of duty. That to my mind is a CRIMINAL act.

Got to admit I used to love a big piss up, but now at my advanced age 2 beers is all I can manage without a hangover.
Try to alternate a bottle of beer with a bottle of water. The visits to the toilet will increase but so will the number of beers. What's not to like!?
