Go down to the airport and look for Brits checking in to a flight heading for the UK.

Playing the devil's advocate: How do we know the driver didn't give him the finger? Looked like he was proceeding across with his companions and something caused him to pause and react.

OP - this is from the website listed below: Guardian Visa (Type “Non-Immigrant O”) Guardian visa is a visa for the parent / the father / the mother who applies to be the guardian of a student whose educational institution is in Thailand. Adding to the Thai Child / Children with one or more foreign parentA foreign parent / foreign parents OR legal guardian MUST apply for the guardian visa issued by the Royal Embassy or Consulate of Thailand in any countries. Their child / children must be under 20 years of age. With required documents as follows: Birth certificate of the child / children as a proof of relationship to that child / those children. Admission letter and enrollment form as proof of the child’s / the children’s enrollment in schools in Thailand. Deposit with the amount of 500,000 TH฿ or above OR an official certificate issued by Embassies / Consulates of Thailand concerned of his / her / their nationality or residence confirming that a parent / parents OR legal guardian merely obtain 500,000 TH฿ a year or above as his / her / their income, (current Thai exchange rate is available https://www.bot.or.th/English/Pages/default.aspx at the Bank of Thailand’s website), which will be later set up his / her / their Thai bank accounts. https://www.starvisaservice.com/guardian-visa.html They have a chat window as well where you can get information specific to your situation.

According to your post, you waited too long to try and report online, the place was a LOT more crowded than usual, there were some 400 people ahead of you and you went an hour before lunch BUT, in the end, 1 of the officers seeing you were an elderly gentleman pulled you into his cubicle to take care of you personally. Then you claim it felt like you were being harassed and thought YOU should have been treated better than all others doing the exact same thing because you support a Thai family. You sir, have strange (one-sided) principles. Perhaps next time you should arrange to be carried in on a hand chariot with fair maidens tossing rose petals as the sea of humanity parts, genuflecting before you?

Great post right up until the last line of pure arrogance. Thailand/Gross domestic product 495.4 billion USD (2022) Just give us a ballpark guess as to what percentage of the GDP YOU'VE brought in please. Also, how many of Thailand's 71.1 million population (of which YOU don't account for) support "complete families"? Most of the Thai families I know support their parents as well as their children. Do you? You don't want to do 90 day reports anymore, just pry open your personal safe and get an elite visa.

So then, it also becomes a pronunciation issue; "Had he secreted a key he could have secreted it under a stone." ?

er...you were saying... se·crete1 /səˈkrēt/ verb verb: secrete; 3rd person present: secretes; past tense: secreted; past participle: secreted; gerund or present participle: secreting (of a cell, gland, or organ) produce and discharge (a substance). You with obvious spelling challenges born of being a Brit are quite possibly thinking of "Secret"

They must have been big bottles of beer. A German who's "heavily drunk" after only a six pack is as hard to imagine as an Irishman falling off his bar stool after 2 shots and a pint.

er...just wondering...from which cell, gland or organ do you secrete your spare keys from?

"Doctor, it hurts when I do this." "Then stop doing that." There's your free medical exam. Now, listen to Sheryl and go see a real doctor.

I'm still trying to connect the title with the topic. What does her education, degree and English proficiency have to do with the poor quality craftsmanship of the finished product? Was she required to read the prescription into an AI computer lens crafting machine in English? Sorry but it just seems your title is 1 topic and your whining about high expectations and substandard results is another. Now, since you claim to have lived here 25 years and counting, one would think the onus is on you for not having learned anything about living here.

Clearly it's avoid getting old ink on their hands. It can be quite toxic when eating Som Tom and sticky rice for lunch shortly after.

Anyone have stats on how many people are attacked, mauled and/or killed by Peacocks each year?

Perhaps you missed it in the papers but the dept of Grossly Inept Valueless Extraneous Moneygrubbing Entities (GIVEME) called for a crackdown on the increasing number of sewer rats near that BigC as they were seen pilfering foodstuff right from the parking lot as customers were trying to load their cars and trucks. They contacted Major-General GODitifachi CHEATachock, Head of the Appropriations Committee, who happens (by chance) to own the DoWeCheatEmAndHow Pest Control. They urgently dispatched their top team and began a series of capture-tag-and-release efforts. Upon tracking the newly tagged culprits they found them gathering in said wooded area as proven by not only radio tracking but found an unusual amount of empty Twinkies, Bread, Cheese and Bologna wrappers along with empty bottles of assorted beer and wines in and around several hollowed out trees. Deeming appropriate and decisive action needed to be taken to protect the good image of Pattaya as a "Family-Friendly" environment, the Major-General swiftly approved the mere B785 million in public funds for the clearing and reclamation of the said wooded haven.

He was rescued by his elephants in the middle of the night. Tarzan like cries were heard vanishing deep into the jungle as all was laid waste before them.
