It's happening whether we like it or not. And what a great ride it is! 'Westerners' living in Thailand might like to reflect on their own rôle in the process.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:07:07 +0000Dhaka, it's all you bro.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:06:49 +0000I see you’re letting your imagination run riot again. ‘Racist and Fems’ what triggered that I wonder?Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:06:49 +0000I have used this option infrequently and usually when I don't have checked baggage. Sometimes the travel to/from the off-airport hotel is time consuming and at some airports the choices can be limited to expensive on-airport hotels. With ground transportation and airport security, a layover of ~12 hours can result in only 8 hours actually at the hotel. Many hotels offer day rooms, or early check in/late check out, but usually at exorbitant rates. If you do have baggage checked through to the final destination, there is a time limit on the layover where your bags can remain 'air side' but this can vary by airline.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:06:49 +0000That Sukhumvit Yank calls me a bogan. I'm 0% bogan. He is struggling to come up with material so he just repeats the same ones. I find it amusing. You and Isme are at each other daily but in real life you might actually get along.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:03:42 +0000Scary to think people like this evil monster walk among us. I hope the victim gets proper counseling.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:02:34 +0000Do 90 day reporting online, get a re-entry cert at the airport.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:02:25 +0000Look at me, do I look like the kinda bloke who gives a toss? 😂 I'll send you a postcard from Ulaanbaatar. What are your plans tadpole? Raquel's basement with her mum at the video camera? Then upload straight to Pornhub and monetize?Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:02:22 +0000Complaining about Iran being untrustworthy in a deal with the US, implies that the US is more trustworthy. Recent history shows otherwise, ignoring that doesn't make it less of a fact. For myself, its not about recent history. The current US administration will likely be gone in a few years. Its about looking forward 5, 10 or 20 years. Would you trust Iran to relinquish any plans to have nukes irrespective of any deal signed now? I dont. Its not a complaint. Its a point of view.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:02:17 +0000I don't drop 'nicks', as you know. It was usually sneaky and stupid people... 😊 I don't willingly allow stupid people to have control over me. Would you? The only thing necessary for evil to flourish, is that good men do nothing. I will not allow bull💩ers and frauds to prevail, certainly not over me. If someone is the real deal, it will come out in the wash. Those kinds of people can often do tremendous damage to others, often without being aware. Usually linking all issues to something external to them. If I'm not sure, I keep my mouth shut or I say I'm not sure. Quite soon, you see the outliers, the bull💩ers...Sun, 14 Jun 2026 02:01:02 +0000True, very true,Sun, 14 Jun 2026 01:59:36 +0000Never keep up with the Joneses; drag them down to your level.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 01:59:29 +0000Troll post removed. @Spider5511 despite warnings, you seem incapable of following, one more time and I will close your account.

The other guy maybe totally different to our image of them. Think of radio. You hear the voice then the face does not match.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 01:57:42 +0000Ipoh, Malaysia or Vientiane, Laos (I currently have a LA-B2 visa, work permit and permit to stay). But I see no reason currently that would necessitate activating Plan B.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 01:57:32 +000014 Years ago the Immigration in Surat Thani moved from the City Government Centre into a rubber tree field far away...Sun, 14 Jun 2026 01:57:24 +0000your comment makes no sense there are no 180 day triggers for entry exclusion or limits. 180 days is for a tax residentSun, 14 Jun 2026 01:56:08 +0000Forums are bizarre really. Just think Jing has made over 120,000 posts.Sun, 14 Jun 2026 01:55:54 +0000Complete nonsense, Many of us don't drink much and like to live in a rural area where we can hike and cycle evey day.
