Accident Thailand's Grim Motorcycle Death Toll Sparks Helmet Campaign
I invite the Police and any govt minister to come and stand at the front of our shop ,where motor bikes scream past every 2 minutes usually with noise making mufflers and speeding with no helmets, it seems that the ones on the noisy bikes are young men, then there is the trucks whizzing by at high speed also with loud mufflers every five minutes, the road is narrow with 2 tight mirrored bends you have to really be careful as idiots come around them in the middle off the road, its complete madness and 90% are ignoring the helmet warning. School kids speeding down the rd. with no helmets and to young to even have a license, then there's the bikes loaded with babies, come on govt come on police take up the offer. Two bikes have gone down in the last week, lucky no serious injury, they were very lucky, one was pissed and did not want the police to attend , a pickup hit him and took off , its complete madness, Mike as you said. -

Documents needed for a trailing spouse Non-O extension
Yes, very good to point out. It will make it easier for people who are based here and do not have to go to uk. Can you confirm what you did to pay the thai embassy and for them to post. That would help others. I noted before that was an issue, that would be solved by having somebody in the uk to get the documents each time. I presume that to pay the thai embassy you could include a cheque, if they accept it. Or cash in notes. Or do they provide for payment by telephone. For the prepaid envelope to the thai embassy, how did you send that to them. If its a UK prepaid it would need to be bought in UK. Can you pay and they post it.
