  1. Documents to be presented for successful application: Clean criminal record confirmation; Curriculum Vitae (aka 'Resume" for our American friends); Education certificates; References from previous employers; Full medical report *OR* One brown envelope
  2. I second the motion! The worst thing is the twice daily news letter doesn't tag his posts with "Warning drivel alert" so I click on them by mistake. I think there should be a Health Warning in the title

    Very hot fridge.

    Good luck finding the (non-existent) fan.... ????
  4. AFAIK Singapore Airlines don't fly directly into CNX so they are unlikely to have an office. Thai USED to have a office in the Old Town but that is long closed down - go to the airport.
  5. Probably timing when the next coup will be ???? "No Sundays are bad" "how about mid-week?"
  6. Good idea - post your query on a website where there is a team of medical experts online who can diagnose you instantly and give you the correct advice. GO TO A DOCTOR (Sheryl excepted of course ???? )
  7. Thai Global Network (on satellite and I think there is an internet feed) used to do an English language news programme don't know if they still do (haven't watched for may years)
  8. Being devils advocate here, what Barclays and other banks are saying is they don't want NON-residents. I don't really care what you are doing but having a correspondence address (i.e. a post box effectively) is NOT the same as being resident. If you are asked to prove it (which you probably won't) you would need things like utility bills in your name.
  9. They'd better take me away now then. Practically all my waking moments (EXCEPT when I am travelling e.g. driving, train journey or walking) I am stuck in front of a screen, for work and for leisure. I still have my marbles.
  10. Update on my story if anybody is interested - Barclays are cancelling me in November (although interestingly if I can't get things sorted out by then the apologist crony from them said I could keep the account open for a few MONTHS (not years) longer) so I've been searching other LEGIT (i.e. not using fake UK addresses which is FRAUD chaps) means. I registered with WISE but am uniimpressed. They don't FEEL like a bank I tried all the other "big four" (as they used to be) banks international offering and found them much of a muchness - gives us a hundred grand, stick in the account and don't touch it. Yeah right effectively paying this amount for the privilege of a bank account. Except one - Lloyds need an income to start with of 50k GBP a year OR deposit 25k (which I think you can take it after a "certain period"). After that, so long as you pay them GBP7.50 a month there are no other income requirements. As I haven't retired yet I can qualify. Joining was a bit of a long-drawn out process but I have FINALLY got it working, Internet banking and all.
  11. It would be a great short-cut to the airport from the Doi Suthep road to the Airport and then the 108. Which is why people use it.
  12. Let me go get me wife-beater vest so I can read it "properly attired" - now, what's the latest Polo news?
  13. I tried once - they wouldn't let me through. Discrimination..... didn't know I could get a pass though but my bicylce has NO registration number
  14. That figure is disputed - only the NY Times (not a friend of donny boy) reports this. Twenty million isn't peanuts.
  15. Yet more touching sympathy compassion and understanding from other AN members when someone has a problem.

    Elder care at home

    I am always pleasantly surprised to read the compassionate messages full of care from one member to another. Re-affirms my faith in human nature. ????
  17. From https://www.ivisa.com/thailand/blog/thailand-visa-on-arrival-by-cruisehttps://www.ivisa.com/thailand/blog/thailand-visa-on-arrival-by-cruise It depends on your which country you live in. According to the Immigration Bureau of Thailand, citizens of certain countries must be ready to get a Visa on Arrival when the cruise ship docks in-port...... So nice deflection attempt, but sorry
  18. "Especially bad news for those of you who leave your phone under your pillow" is this so the tooth fairy can find them?
  19. Let's hope they build a large Immigration Hall to process the 5,000 passengers all wanting to get off at the same time. Shouldn't take more than a day to process them with one desk open (as usual)
