It's a package deal....you have to take the husband or no deal on getting the cat back.

Sheryl, I thought we resolved all this back in 2014 when I first posted that photo.  That definitely isn't Scully, a female.  It's a male, or rather used to be.  You're welcome to come to Chiang Mai and inspect the private bits yourself.  And Mr. Bitey will be happy to see you, too.  He always likes visitors.

You are one short of a full quota, and I'd make enquiries with those above regarding what happened to the eighth dot. There is a form to fill in for lost or missing dots, Scott would know about that .....

You've made more than double the posts I have, and have only one more dot than I. Something wrong there.

Perhaps they would be happier in ChiangMaivisa.com.  Chexit could be on the cards.

If you check out the Chiang Mai subforum, you'll see that are most interesting threads are about our fine, efficient and friendly Immigration office and visa-related questions, so yes we probably could support an entire, stand-alone forum just about dealing with visa and immigration issues in Chiang Mai.

 

It would need to have a subforum about the great air quality, too.

One of the very few left among us...... cash under the bed or buried in the garden, and why not? The bankers belong right down there, alongside the lawyers.

Well, yes and taking a few photos of the hoard outside the imm offices  to show other powers-that-be the long queues at zero-dark stupid of the elderly waiting outside in the dark with mozzies, without access to toilets or other comforts.  This was one area of Chiang Mai where Dave2 never ventured to photograph.

 

These photos and other info were put together into  presentations for the Consular Corp, governor's office, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, etc, generating some hope that conditions would change, but typical of the way things are done here in Thailand, despite my being asked to do all this by the Consular Corp as president of CM Expats Club, it was a case of shoot the messenger.

Yes, it did some research on Imm offices in other provinces and it does seem that the Jomtien office is well-run.  And I've got to believe that the foreigners in Pattaya aren't any more polite, better dressed or well-behaved than the ones in Chiang Mai.  Yes, some CM forum posters say that's why our Imm. office is so bad, because the officers don't like dealing with us uncouth foreigners.

Was wondering how you, of all people, lost a dot ......

[transam]

........The Trans gang can stop sweating, relax, looks like I fixed the prob, even changed a fan in the desk top to have flashing lights for that Christmas POTY feeling....

 

Let's ROCK....

For sure, uncouth folk never vote for Trans...

Where are we in the dash for the line of this riveting finale .? Has any contender put blue water ' twixt thereselves and the chasing pack .? Will there be a last minute flurry of campaigning by protagonists in an attempt to ensure victory .? ( we are still to decide ' its a flock thing indecision ) ..

Does victory enhance ones standing within the community .?

So many questions .....

 

The line is more than one week away .....

 

Many "contenders" stoop to low levels in order to even gain a single place in this hotly contested event.

 

Always expect a last minute flurry, as passports are grabbed and flights booked.

 

Victory ensures absolutely nothing, other than the fact that you narrowly beat trans!
