Double Entry Visa - Double Check Of Details

[willfreeman]

i have a double entry tourist visa obtained in australia

date of issue - 19th feb 2013

enter before date - 18th of may 2013

i entered thailand on the 26th of feb, the stamp in passport says admitted until 26th of april,

so just looking to double check what i do from here on-

- prior to 26th of april - around ten days before - head to immigration office and apply for 30 day extension of first entry, (will not be full 30 days, rather 22ish as enter before date is 18th of may)

- a few days before 18th of may, do 'border run' -possibly to burma as am in chiang mai now, activate second 60 day entry

also can i get another 30 day extension on the second entry even though the visa is past its 'date'? taking the date id need to leave thailand till around -early/mid august?

is this the correct procedure i would need to follow and correct timing? thanks for any assistance just wanting to make sure i can maximize tme allowed in thailand form my visa
