Re: England v Pakistan cricket

The hosts wrapped up an innings and 55-run win inside three days at Headingley to draw the two-match series 1-1. Really just goes to highlight how shocking the performance was in the first Test. Pakistan are not a good side & on their travels usually appear to be worse than that. Every England bats...

Re: England v Pakistan cricket

Lunch on Day 3. England were bowled out for 363. Their main man was recalled Jos Buttler who managed a violent top score of 80 not out while battling with the non batsmen in the side - by that I mean the bowlers as most of the English non bowlers seem to fall into that category as well.. :D It left ...

Re: England v Pakistan cricket

Rain delayed the start for a couple of hours. When the game did start it was the captain, rather than the night watchman who went first. Indeed, Bess will be disappointed that he went a run before his fifty, but it was a good batting performance by the youngster. Despite the overcast conditions the ...

Re: England v Pakistan cricket

Well the second Test. up North, is a bit more like you expect of an England side at home in early summer. Pakistan won the toss on a sunlit morning & made the mistake of expecting it to last & so elected to bat. Stokes was late ruled out injured & so England, for once, gave a youngster, in the shape...

Re: Yangon trip

In downtown Yangon the two quality hotels are The Sule Shangri-La & the Pullman. They are a bit too steep for my poor exchange rates pound (the first is about 4,700 baht a night & the second about the 4,000) but are certainly quality. I stayed at the much more reasonably priced City Star Hotel, that...

Yangon trip

For years I had wanted to visit Rangoon in Burma. That has not been possible for a few years now, so I had to settle for Yangon in Mynanmar instead. :D An online visa (for $50) is necessary for most non-Asean citizens but easily available & simple to apply for. The applicant then gets a formal lette...

Re: Non Immigrant Type 'O' Pension

Yes that should be possible. However if for some strange circumstance Udon Immigration would not give you an extension then all you would have to do is go over the Friendship Bridge in Nong Khai, immediately return & you would be given a 30 day visa exemption. That would cost you the price of the tr...

No RJ there is no longer an 'o' visa for visiting family & friends - as I used to get for nearly 10 years. The OP cannot get the 'o' based on retirement for the two reasons I mentioned. 1. He is not over 60 years old. 2. He is not receiving a Government Pension. As I said before, the rules changed a...
