 Apparently this trip was back in January. Would be less embarrassing if you fellas would actually bother to read before getting your panties all knotted up and spewing your misguided righteousness.

Gripers gripe. It's what they do. 

Logic and reason, not to mention normal human courtesy, has nothing to do with it. 

Everybody needs a hobby. 

So in January covid was not an issue in Thailand? there is no embarrassment unless you didnt realise it was, as for griping if being concerned for peoples safety and health then please let the griping continue. If your hobby potentially puts peoples health at risk maybe

'human courtesy" should be to pursue another hobby. 

 

[The first road trip]

Congratulations on your first road trip when everyone is requested to do "essential travel only" i wonder why the BKK clusters have now infected virtually all Thailand.

[Inter provincial travel]

The request is for essential travel only, unfortunately not all follow this and just " take a trip" as they wish.

[Dog walking areas]

Hi all. 

Iam based in jomtien and would ask if anyone could recommend any local dog walking areas. Preferably without walking down a roadside or soi dog hassles. TIA

You are probably better off replacing any damaged panels with new rather than painting them.

 

The panels come factory painted, you will have a perfect colour match and the paint quality will be the same as original.

 

Not that expensive.

Where did it say i was intending painting damaged panels?

[Visa run possible after the 26th of September ?]

Many would like to know the answer to that question but the reality is that any response would be as speculative as predicting next weeks lottery numbers. If your intent on stopping there are a number of agencies advertising options. It may cost money but at least it will put your mind at ease.

[Elite: how many blank passport pages do I need?]

Considering what they charge i would have thought elite visas themselves would be the ones to ask? Just saying

[QCon Wall Panels vs blocks]

We use the panels in more commecial buildings due to the size. Useful for quick construction for large areas, i wouldnt see you gettimg the same advantage on a domestic build.

[Medical professor recommends delay of travel bubble for at least 6 months]

I guess the fact he has a stable income and is surrounded by financially stable friends and family has nothing to do with his comments. As opposed the people in tourist destinations or daily income which relies on tourists that are sleeping in closed bars and eating from charitable hang outs. Just saying.

[Travel headaches is new normal?]

just out of interest if you needed to be back there would you not have repatriated when all the warnings to do so we're issued? You've taken a chance and risk that has not worked in your favour by not doing so, was this not factored in when you took this risk?

Thais commenting on a subject regarding health and safety,  hmm I guess they are experts on the subject based on the road safety here. 

[Under consideration stamp experience]

Please see below the history of my understanding consideration stamp experience. 

British passport with TR extension expiring 12 April. 

 

Went to Korat immigration 8 April with embassy letter and received under consideration stamp until 23 April. (15 days from my actual visit and 11 days from visa expiry date) 

 

Returned 23 April and received extension until 7 May ( 30 days from actual initial visit,  25 days from previous visa expiry) 

 

Was advised that the second amnesty (suggested as until 31 July is not yet official) 

 

What I don't understand is the bottom stamp with reference to the 21 April?

No, I am not unaware. But you know very well that we are not talking about road accidents in general, we are talking about cycling accidents versus accidents that happen while at home. 

 

So it seems you aren't provide any evidence to back up your assumption? 

 

 

I am not searching through to find specific bicycle evidence in regard road accidents, if you require that as opposed common sense regarding accidents in Thailand then maybe common sense evades you.  Let's make it simpler for you. All people have been requested to stay at home unless essential, is that enough for you? Or are you special?

You seem to be assuming that someone is more likely to have an accident while out cycling than while staying at home. Do you have any evidence to support that assumption? 

 

 

Assuming? Are you unaware of the amount of accidents on thailands roads?

Will you remember this the next time your running around doing shopping and other things ?

Or does this not apply to you ? 

Essential travel only is the request pretty much worldwide, i sincerely hope you or a loved one does not have an accident to find that the necessary health staff to take care of them are not in isolation due to a selfish act from another who chooses this request does not apply to them.

[Who's still getting out to ride their bike?]

The guy who had a road accident then, though unknowingly, was positive for covid 19 and consequently over 100 health staff were placed in quaranteen as opposed taking care of sick people does not make you feel selfish!!!!!!

[180 day in country rules]

Hi pleases can anyone advise more on the 180 day stay in country rules on tourist visa/visa exempt etc? Is it calendar year or just every 12 months generally? TIA

[VISA RUN Pailin/Ban Pakard or Ban Laem/Daun Lem which is the better/cheaper option?]

Drove to Ban Pakkard myself 2 days ago to get a visa exemption, 1700 baht, sat on my ass at thailand side for 20mins waiting then left, easy and cheap

You get a single entry tourist visa there if you present the required documents.

The want to see a statement from your bank showing the equivalent of at least 20k baht in it.

Ubonjoe, how does this work regarding how old the latest update of your bankbook/statement is bearing in mind you may not be able to get an update and travel to thailand the same day or can you just use an online statement for the same day?
