  1. We could do with a longer list that includes some more hospitable destinations. So some lad in the pub said anyway.
  2. Is your own problem genetic then.? And a Brit can be from more than one island.
  3. Do you have any details of this ship NDN, I've done a few trips on cargo ships so it sounds interesting.
  4. I very nearly did 25 years ago, always liked Vientiane but the longest I've managed is 2 weeks. I've only been once since the Chinese took over, could do with another look. You may have a point it could wear thin after a while it is a smallish place but I did last a good few years in the Nakhon.
  5. Still no long-stay visas or extensions for Laos or has that changed.?
  6. You are always one step ahead of the game bob, an example to us all.
  7. Interesting, any relatively new condos showing signs of neglect.? Lack of maintenance is a third world thing. For third world please read developing nation.
  8. I suppose it depends on the room, I don't suppose it would be much for the original price in a place paying an illegal person 3,000 or 4,000 a month to run the reception. I mean there are well respected contributors on here who would never go near a 500 baht room, let alone 300. No you are correct, lock the git up and eventually deport him.
  9. "Ripping off" by charging 500 for a 300 baht room.? What tourists are looking at 300 baht rooms.? The answer is probably skint ones, but 500 in bkk is not a killer.
  10. Could be from North Africa or a Coloured South African, the descendants of Indonesian indentured labourers who were in the Cape Province.
  11. I understand that a lot of smaller units in the Big C 1 mall are closed, so is Central picking up a bit?
  12. Similar here at the Red. Cross in Bangkok. Possibly a bit more than 62 but not too much.
  13. Does it make a difference if the 800,000 is from previous savings, current year earned income or pensions.?
  14. Going off topic, but your comment i the now closed thread about the cafe seat fanatic brought a smile. Wonder if he is still about.
  15. It will save a lot of messing about if that is the official position next year. And thank you for your valuable and informative contribution.
  16. No, scooter accident was the stated reason. DUPLICATED POST SORRY ABOUT THAT But Blood already received and he is out of ICU but "a bit of a mess". Thanks to any and all who tried to assist.
  17. No, scooter accident was the stated reason.
  18. Where did I say I do not know him? As I said I took the info from another fb page. I thought it would have more exposure on here. If you are willing to donate it would be much appreciated. PM sent
  19. I am just passing on a request/appeal I saw on the Pattaya Loyal Rangers Supporters fb page, full details on there. But I am sure you are correct about the Red Cross.
  20. By Banglamung Hospital, Scottish guy and true gentleman in urgent need following road accident.
  21. You used that one the other day, boring, repetitive anti-Briish individual.
  22. And what would newbee identify as? Answers on a postcard please.
  23. Thanks for that, it is pre 2024 savings. Hope I can prove it to their satisfaction. The tax relief was a vain hope, belt and braces style. Thanks again.
  24. Mike I am expecting to transfer in approx, 600,000 baht to pay for hospital treatment (my status is extension of permission to stay based on non-O Retirement) any likelihood they would give tax relief on this. Yes I know, my fault for not having it here in the first place.
