Double time and a half. :D A very good reason to go into the office today.

The UK Embassy will be busy processing Eastern European entry visas of course.... That’s how "Great Brittan" keeps such a tight ship! :o

The British Embassy have updated their website to include the following advice, don't think they are, or need to, actually notify people

"In view of the deteriorating security situation anyone considering going to Bangkok should urgently review their plans. British residents in, and visitors to, Bangkok are advised to avoid any areas where demonstrations are taking place and to stay indoors as far as possible."

US Embassy Warden Message.

This message alerts U.S. citizens traveling to or residing in Bangkok that Prime Minister Abhisit has declared a state of emergency in Bangkok and surrounding areas following demonstrations by protestors from the United Front for Democracy Against Dictatorship (aka UDD or “red-shirts’). This declaration follows demonstrations of anti-government redshirts in Bangkok protesting the arrest of one of their leaders. The state of emergency empowers the government to restrict gatherings of more than five persons and to prohibit and/or block communications. Media reports gunfire at the Ministry of Interior and demonstrations at Government House, Parliament, and the Central World/Siam Paragon Shopping Malls.

Nothing from the Canadian Embassy...

....but the current embassy staff just did time in Afghanistan, so unless shooting starts they feel there is no danger or need for panic.

I should also say that I heard nothing from the Cdn embassy during the airport closures or the previous SOE.

the British Embassy are doing what they usually do in an emergancy.------nothing.

The dutch embassy staff is doing what it does best, telling it's citizen to stop calling and leave them alone. If it comes to real problems here and all the other embassies are evacuating their compatriots, all the dutch embassy will do is tell it's citizens "not our problem, find your own way home"

To those members who replied "Nothing", are you reg'd to receive email alerts from your Embassy?

I thought the British Embassy would have found a small green hill to roll eggs down on an Easter Sunday morning :D

Totally incorrect and mis-reporting.

Your post should read:

"the British Embassy are doing what they usually do ------nothing"

Gungadin I have been getting the same updates, they did lift there warning when the airports were taken to the same level. Its good to know they are at least a little proactive about these things.
