  1. If you check in early often the gate is not known in which case you need to look at the (scarce) info boards at a later time. We checked in more than two hours before and there was no gate on the boarding pass. It was Bangkok Airways btw code-shared with at least three other (non-Thai) airlines
  2. Yes I know - my mistake - but easy to make. I mistook the code-share numbers for the "correct" flight as there were four different airlines there and the VJ one was right next to it and I just latched on to it as it was (OK ALMOST) the rtight time and destination. It's not as if CNX is a megapolis requiring dozen of flights an hour who scheduled two flights at (almost) exactly the same time?
  3. Don't mention it - glad to be of help!
  4. I've found the Indica (whatever) gets you stoned, and so does the other kind. Not always in the same order.
  5. And UNBELIEVABLE at Bangkok Airport - looked for our gate which wasn't on our boarding pass as we were checking in two hours early to allow for traafic delays, (but didn't matter because they changed the gate anyway) looked for CM 12:25 - ah - there! Must be code-share or something. Little did I know how wrong I was. So we went to the gate early which luckily wasn't far and sat fr many 10-15 minutes and I suspected the code-share agreement had gone quite far as the ground staff where in VietJet uniforms, and I remembered thinking why so many VJ vehiclhes were servicing what apparently a VJ plane. Turns out Bangkok Airways and VJ have two flights departing at the same time to the same destination but they code-share with (one of which I have used) so when it was scrolling on the ONY info board I saw I thought it was for another airline and picked the wrong one. Luckily we travelled early because we only just made it - but we did

  7. Lloyds bank IoM required a minimum income of 50 or 100k a year I think when setting up the account but after that there is no minimum balance requirement (and no requirement for annual income either)
  8. We were in a pub where social deviants hang out and my friend said "imagine what it would be like in X (this I can't remember if it was 20 or 50) years time, when dope is legalized? And we're sitting around like the old guys (dereogatory term removed) smoking their roll-ups here, rolling our four-skinners with a roach and all the modern kids are smoking tailor-made Number Six Thousands?" (Number 6 being a popular cigarette brand those days) TRY smoking ANYTHING in a pub today

  9. Why don't you find an English-speaking lawyer and ask him to check? There are no details in your post how is anybody expected to comment
  10. There are films available on Youtube (e.g. Blues brothers) but you have to watch inane insipid commentators alongside as well - offering their opinion on the movie as if you are incapable of forming one yourself. The egotism of thinking someone watching you watch TV is interesting is breath-taking - but as mentioned previously you can find anything (good or bad) on the internet. I have never understand why people can watch a programme that is filiming other people watching the TV - how utterly pointless.
  11. Pot calling the kettle black.....
  12. I'll wade in - Switzerland (of which I was a resident for more than twenty years) also have a world-widfe income thing for residents - and basically I just ignored this (claiming lack of German if anyone asked). HOW are the TRD going to track your wealth when you are not a resident of ANY other country apart from Thailand? Send a letter to every country everywhere asking if you heard about you?

  14. Just logged in (https://www.lloydsbank.com/international.html) - straight through no problem - not even called and asked for a code. This call back thing seems to be random - had one the other day first time in weeks.
  15. somehow I don't think I will be wading through 18 pages of informed and intelligent comments

  17. I have a "semi-legal" windows on my laptop (ancient HP) and was getting this 'activate Windows' messageafter I had to disable to the Microsoft SoftwareProtection Service as it was eating all the CPU. I purchaced a licence key off the Internet - and it didn't take! So I just did this and it has fixed it - thanks!

  21. Excellent advice - thankyou. Aargau Strassenverhehrsamt sent me (free of charge!) an IDL that took approx two weeks to get here, used it in the DLT with absolutely no problems
  22. Considering the clowns who came before him he did a pretty good job by comparison
