  1. I do not find an entry in Aviation Herald. So was it wasn't even required to report?
  2. No later than 15 days before current permission to stay ends. There is no reason to wait after entry if you have the money on the bank. Let me be precise: the same day the Non-O visa is issued it is "used" and you get an admitted to stay stamp for 90 days. So of course you can not use this to enter the country. Issued by immigration boss on 2nd August, picked it up on 6th August. Stamp is 90 days from 2nd August. Now I have a one year extension until 30th Oct 2023.
  3. yes and now?
  4. Could also read: I left the gas station in dark night and turned onto the road without proper care. Of course this is pure speculation. Could also be motorcycle headlight dark plus high speed.... Who knows. One gets dull from all these news.
  5. Which will never make it to English language news. Media presence makes the news. Terrible full speed pickup crash at a traffic light in our district town, three dead and many injured in a bus. Never appeared anywhere in English.
  6. Am I the only one who doesn't get what the post is about? ? Legit mails can end in a spam folder. Not unusual. "archive" may be a nicer word for it.
  7. Yesterday saw pictures of empty walkaways at Suvarnabhumi, people saying immigration counters empty... A bit contrary to the euphoric tourism increase news. And yes the airport shuttle never really stopped just a lot less during Covid. I remember at the peak times of 2019 it drove every 12(!) min .
  8. A bit strange that you open another thread on this topic after the lenghty discussion from end of March? TTB
  9. I voted for No/Yes. No for the look as it becomes more and more difficult to find pictures that are not silly filtered to the point where they look like barbies or cartoon figures. With the weight: it seems the fattys have given up lying too much. Maybe the "I am a beautiful fatty" trend has reached Thailand. Good you left out age Some get younger from year to year. Real age 42, age in 2021: 36, last age: 32 (real life example)
  10. Sure you can. It's not that primitive as assumed above. The SW is smart enough. Let's hope the topic starter comes back and I don't ride another dead horse.
  11. Story in a Thai source is absolutely shaking. Maid heard yelling and shouting from the room, saw a man rushing out. Saw blood stains on the corridor. "Must have been cat's blood". So the deceased lay in the room for two more days. Mother previously had urged the victim to return home to Buriram after being jobless. She refused. Full face clear picture, full name and home address of the victim included
  12. Off Soi Buakhao at the corner the fresh market. Often drove or walked there. Shocking to read this. Freelancing carries higher risks. Hope they find the scum.
  13. Can't remember I had this much fuss in the province when transferring stamps.
  14. And the wise administration does nothing. Enabling warp speed through populated areas is irresponsible. Remember one Thai girl killed in front of the lively Rompo market (not on the "remote" parts of the road).
  15. No it's not too hi-tech. The picture of my car on the cops smartphone was clear and speed indicated. Sure they are linked. Up here it usually happens before reaching a district town with the police box/station roadside. Short walk to the cashier I was about 20 km/h over the limit and paid 500. I still don't quite buy the story of 4 km/h over. 120 being allowed on highways is an exception on a few stretches with specific features (completely "fenced", separated, no junctions or intersections like motorways).
  16. You were faster. And sure it will implode if the new government will tighten the rules even a bit.
  17. Good question. The solid lines look like no lane change? And the zig zags raising more attention?
  18. >Jomtien< 2nd rd, yes. And it looks like this since long. A broad well paved race track for suicidals from all continents. Sometimes the head flies off and has be searched in the bushes. Chicken run for pedestrians crossing. Never never rely on pedestrian traffic lights or zebra! Monster towers/blocks to both sides with rabbit cages called condo. It shudders me whenever I pass by.
  19. We recently had a failure of one of our ACs, a Samsung model. Shortly after starting it ended with an error E1 or E2. For a day I could get it to work after doing the "cleaning" procedure (I had cleaned the outside unit DIY some time before). Technician didn't find a problem and did a proper cleaning of outside and inside unit. Works since then. Fingers crossed.
  20. Lucky you. That's the highest price ever seen. A mate had one done at Bangkok Hospital Pattaya incl. a sophisticated lens and laser application for 150k. Standard procedure (standard lens + glasses) at a private hospital in Khon Kaen about 50k.
  21. You need an AC technician to check. The breaker on/off sounds like covering an electronic problem. A mate had a small creeper (gecko type) burn the board. I think they want to avoid complaints and cost. Electronic problems usually "fixed" by replacing complete board. Expensive. What model is it?
  22. Interestingly some consulates still show the 40k/400k requirement. Not the tightened 3 mio Baht. Income/savings requirement also vary wildly between consulates in different countries.
  23. More than a 1000 km as the crow flies. Enough for now. What a fun it was to travel there during Covid for Christmas 2021. But even then I had a feeling it might be the last visit for long.
  24. OK but there is a technical reason why I don't even see that.
