    Cheers Joe. I've ditched the idea of doing it myself. The Visa run buses go past y front door more or less so one of them is going to stop for me.

    My Visa for HK has been accepted, we have all the right papers,  it should be ready any time now, but my visa for Thai runs out sunday, so best get it renewed, better safe than sorry.
