thank for any help ...martyn.

Martynsnowman, you can get some good information from

http://www.bkklaoembassy.com/

fee schedule, download visa application form (fill-in port of entry LAO PDR)

I believe it's 35$ or 1,500 baht for Brits/Yanks for on-arrival visa

You usually don't have to stay out of the country for long

fill out the forms and get your visa at the border, you can then re-enter Thailand str8 away if you so desire...
