If they survive from 30 feet, they have earned em I guess not even enough time to open a shute really

The "jump" is done from a 10 metre tower, with your harness attached to a line which controls the speed at which you fall. 

 

The wings and medals business is a joke! As is describing an 83 year old on overstay as a criminal.

 

It is unlikely that he has any money, or anyone to fund his flight to the UK. His chances don't look good in IDC. I am sure that the British Consular officials will be fully engaged - elsewhere...

His overstay probably predates the implementation of computer records.

Even if there was no computer system 13 years ago which I find it strange because this is the 21st century, the owner of the place that he stayed during the past few years must have reported his stay as required by law.

Every person who leaves the house in Thailand without underwear is committing a crime

I'm sure you would be happy for them to be sent to the gulag too

Nobody is sent to the gulag, they go to their home country.

He may well have been in a private rental property, owned by friends of thai realtives? 

No reporting ever done, or owned a house on leased land , who knows

With or without underwear?

UK in winter after 13 years could be considered by some to be a gulag, especially under BJ

How about escorting the guy to immigration and helping him get a new retirement Visa as a measure of good will?

Sure, you are going to pay for his healthcare too?

hmmmm .... 83 and will be going back,  it won't be a very nice home coming.

I expect he has nothing except the OAP

Most likely he ran out of money, and his GF snitched on him to get rid of him.

However he did well to stay under the radar that long

Why?

Do it for one person about whom we have no first hand knowledge, and a precendent has been set.

How would you define the boundaries for this gesture? 

He has not conformed in 13 years, but you want compassioante grounds established?

It’s 1900 baht per year for a non-o retirement visa. And he’d pay it himself.

How on earth would the public know whether anyone is overstaying? It isn't something you'd advertise ....

 

You know that here national sport is delation; :wacko:
he was wrong to live next to ass.holes who had better take care not to leave the keys of their motorbikes on the machine and avoid drinking AND driving.
They realized that the old man had not left his house for a long time and instead of taking care of their business went to bring the thing to immigration.

Well, we don't see POTY 2019 anymore on the forum, what does she think about that ?

You need to lighten up. It’s a one-off situation with an elderly guy. And good press for immigration. Do you really think there’s going to be a plethora of low to mid 80 year old expats on a thirteen year overstay flooding immigration? You get him a visa that he pays for himself, and go from there.

Well..I couldn't give a flying squirrel about Poty under the very best of circumstances.

 

However the English words are deflection,displacement and denial.

 

In this case it is displacement as it is immensely satisfying to kick an old age pensioner when he is down..makes you feel better..

Yes  monitor person,

I was asking questions, if you make suggestions you should be able to define the outcomes.

I have no idea how many illegal over 80 year old there are, do you?

 

Set precendents expect the unexpected
