Australian Visa Applications Now Online

The only way you can now do a UK visa in Thailand is online, I have just completed my wife's. The stupid thing is you still have to print the application out and then take it to be processed at Trendy house in BKK by VFS Global, the designated govt agent. The cost is $142 USD which must be paid up f...

Should I be feeling guilty?

The situation in Sydney over the past couple of days had me angrily stomping about the house, vehemently condemning all followers of Islam and the way that its radical followers are totally f***ing up ‘civilised’ societies throughout the world and the cautious way we now have to live our lives, all ...

Near death LUCKY...

I've heard the same thing about cows having free roam albeit regarding different times from different people, both Thai and farang. Bear in mind that Neal had his accident at around 11.15 - 11.30, if the 'law/rules' are applied then the farmer should not even be considering his actions let alone the...

The owner needs to pay up, even if it's minor damage on your bike. Report it to the police. Or better yet the Tourist Police, that'll give them something useful *and* interesting to do. RW I'm sorry, but you do know where we are living don't you? Pay up? You're joking.... Let me tell you, I took Ne...

Grass Roots Footie (everything exept EPL) 2014/15

A decent win by the Mighty Mariners, only 3 points off 2nd place. Would love to be playing the Iron again next season....when they go down of course and we're back in the league proper.

2025 Developed Nation

Don't be silly, a new road system??? They cannot get their current system constructed properly. The new dual carriageway extension to the ring road is a prime example...the workmanship is absolutely diabolical and is already in need of vast amounts of re-construction and not yet fully open. I think ...

Farang Husband in Issan

Let's all go on strike and refuse to pay for anything more until we get some rights here in Thailand. Who knows, we may manage to gain the status of a Thai soi dog, (in the eyes of our estimable hosts), if we're lucky...not much I grant you, but at least it's a step in the right direction!

A Jewish daughter says to her mother, "I'm divorcing Nathan." All he wants is sex, sex and more sex. My vagina is now the size of a 50-cent piece when it used to be the size of a 5 cent piece." Her mother says ….. "You're married to a multi-millionaire businessman ! You live in an 8 bedroom mansion ...

I know Peter has put quite a lot of time and effort into this and knowing the details myself, as he says it is really too complicated to detail everything here. Also the individual circumstances of the expat wishing to obtain the WP determine the overall process. It is not illegal as you intimate, l...

Why don't you get a multi-entry re-entry permit? Can't remember the cost but don't think it is as much as 2 x the cost of single entry.....
