Did you give them the idp and your uk license ?
There is no need to show them an "IDP" if you have a licence that shows your photo and is written in English after all the IDP is just a translation in to several languages but not of which are the Thai languge.

Probably better to go to your nearest TOT office and pay there
A bit off topic but since they merged TOT and CAT they have implemented Carrier
grade NAT breaking dynamic DNS so no access to ipcams or VPN to my home LAN
at my router WAN they assign a 100.90.***.*** ip address but checking on any
"what is my IP" webpages reports a 182.***.***.*** the only option apparently being to change to a more expensive package !!!!

You will find the "power of attorney" form and other necessary documents in
this file Vehicle_Transfer_2.zip
If not Thai then your girlfriend will need to send a signed copy of her passport picture page and the page with the exit from Thailand page as well as a signed power of attorney form...in extreme cases the DLT may be particularly pedantic and want the cars blue book signed by the current owner too.

This is about controlling the common folk in the name of Morality using a pandemic as the excuse. And we are being told by world leaders that pandemics will be with us from here on out. From 2020 until forever - cyclical pandemics. Forever pandemics means forever control.

There is no burst pipe or anything
Don't be so sure that there is not a leak in the pipes even a very small leak that doesn't register on the water meter can cause big problems, the leak can also come from the waste water pipes ( toilet,wash basin,shower/ bathtub ) that are buried in the walls not being sealed up properly during construction.
Also as you suspect, the water could just be from leaky floor tiles which could be ( maybe but not certainly) solved by re grouting the floor.
Avoid using toilet cleaning products on the floor tiles as they often contain hydrochloric acid which eats away the grout.
1 hour ago, jadee said:Is there a more permanent solution?
Yes but you won't like it as it requires ripping out the existing plumbing/pipework and tiled floor, sealing the floor with an epoxy resin (something like TOA Epoguard 100) re plumbing and pressure testing before laying new tiles...
yes a big big job !!!

My 9 year old AMD Athlon II X4 640 3GHZ cpu struggles to play the jellyfish-10-mbps-hd-hevc-10bit.mkv
all 4 cores at 100 percent and lots of dropped frames
but plays the jellyfish-5-mbps-hd-hevc.mkv OK 24 gigs ram so that's not the problem.
AC starts "clicking sounds" after 5-6 hours
in The Electrical Forum
Posted
The clicking could be a noisy compressor relay clicking on and off not much can be done about that except changing the relay on the main pcb board.... or if set to some auto setting might start the louvre door thingies swinging about /up and down that might cause a clicking noise, also sometimes the plastic casing makes a noise from the temperature changes but can often be solved by loosening the retaining screws just enough to allow a small amount of movement.
