I can not understand why countries such as North Korea, Iran, Venezuela, Iraq would waste time and money on trying to develop nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them. As has been proven if you wish to wreck havoc on a country you only need to infect a country with a virus such as Ebola.

Each to his own.  I was down there just 2 days ago.  As usual it was dirty, swarming with soi dogs, with no edible facilities in terms of food or drink, broken beach furniture,  what there was of it, rubbish everywhere. a lot of it floating in the sea.  Much nicer beaches to visit, not many I will grant you, but they can be found.    

The topic clearly says Phala beach not Pa_Tie_yaa beach. It must disappoint all you Pa_Tie_yaa residents that in Thailand there are beaches that have no ladyboys or cheap beach hookers available.

Hopefully one of the sufferers will be the guy interviewed during Mardi Gras who said. "it only kills old people" "it is the same as getting the flu, 2 days later you are all right". "Nothing will stop me partying". The sad part is he was a college student.

If anyone is interested I received a message from my trading company on Friday 27 march USA time. Online trading is unaffected but any other requests other than trading, such as transfer assets between accounts, transfer money or liquidate accounts will be done on a strict first come first done basis. As of 27 march requests received will be dealt with on 1 April.

Thought I'd mention Cambodia again. Government giving tourist extensions up to six months (30 days at a time). If you can still find a flight, although as I warned you the last one I could find was last night.

If anyone is desperate, bookings are available for BKK/PNH on 1 April with China Eastern. 1183 US 

Just for any ones interest i have tried to book flights with the usual suspects BKK/ Phnom Penh. First available flight Airasia 26 April. Cambodia air 15 April.

PS Both flights over 12000 baht.

I had exactly the same problem as OP with a Non O visa and new passport, immigration wanted the letter certified. Look very carefully where the signature is on the embassy letter and you will see an embossed seal. It is very hard to see in normal light. My IO wanted to see a usual ink stamp cert. Perhaps your company are missing seeing it. And yes immigration moved nothing and told me to use both passport till visa expires.

According to Thai tv news yesterday all inter province bus tickets are suspended till 30 th April

Marriage

I renewed my NON O marriage in Savannakhet three months before expiring of current visa also issued in Savannakhet. I just explained I was in Laos on business and would it be possible to issue new visa early. No problem.

What is a sneaker bot?

A Sneaker Bot is a complex piece of very complicated software that is designed to buy shoes as soon as they are released on a website.

Since bots are faster at clicking and requesting, they can perform their designated work way faster than humans can. This is why people spend a lot of money on sneaker bots because it increases their chance of getting limited-edition sneakers when they are released. Bots are cool and complicated pieces of long codings of software and can be as expensive as $500.

This is because these sneaker bots can be used to buy and resell sneakers for personal benefits, so the companies that are selling these sneaker bots set their prices according to the features of their sneaker bots.

Don't know about the train but I tried to take the international bus from Bangkok to Vientiane and they would not sell me a ticket as I had no valid Laos visa. Said there was no time to get Laos VOA at border.

I was there last week and they also told me I need to bring your wife with me ???? 

So what was the outcome? Did you send for your wife? Did they give you the visa regardless? Advised you next time to bring wife?

Depending on how old your box is you may have to change. Old boxes are 2 mpeg new system requires 4 mpeg. True were offering box upgrade for 1600 baht exchange.

The thief uses the OBD port to plug in their own device to bypass the security systems.

Can not help but the company that refused to hire to me at Heathrow due to not being on the electoral roll was Ent__prise. At Glasgow it was Euro__r for same reason even though both bookings accepted online. Used Thai licence instead.

Log on from USA this is what you see top and bottom every page 1 March 2020 0730 Thai time.

Regarding complaints about ads on tvf i noticed nobody states which country they are logging in from. Some people say no ads some say lots of ads. I logged in via the USA on Thursday and tvf was unbelievable with ads. A banner ad right across the bottom and top of the screen, the VDO ad bottom right and adverts between the threads. The only difference was most ads had a cancel button.  On Friday I logged on via Bulgaria, it was like using a text only browser. No ads, no graphics, pages open instantaneously.

PS the page is jumping 2 inches every 30 seconds. Typing is impossible on tvf. Had to copy and paste from word

Every page to TVF today. Not on any other site.

Contact United Flour Mills Thailand. They have bakeries and baking schools. Three in BKK and one in CNX. maybe more. They sell bulk flour in a lot of different grades. Plain white flour was 1050 baht for 22.5 kilo bag. Beware info is one year old.

This website hits the network anywhere from 300 to 400 times to load a SINGLE PAGE!

It is one of the worst websites I have ever seen, in so many ways.

It is a small miracle that any page loads.

I have an old web developer program for XP.  One of the elements is an ad counter. Now what was regarded as an ad then may not necessarily be an ad today. Home page in TVF is 72 ads downloaded. Click on topic header, count resets 28 ads download, click on thread, count goes to 45 ads. Around  2 hours surfing is around 1700 ads. total for 3 weeks 19500 ads.

My friend went there on 17 Feb 2020 to enter on non o ME. I just called him and he said he only paid 2000 baht to the visa company. No extras, no questions from immigration. Perhaps things have changed since then.
