  1. That is all I am expecting but looking for specific recommendations rather than general advice please.
  2. Thanks but I am looking for travel in the opposite direction
  3. Thanks, much appreciated. Good morning to you although it's 1.30am here.
  4. Thanks for the tip. I think we tried them when last in Pattaya at Xmas last year. They are opposite a big Tesco Lotus / slightly downbeat mall I recall. Despite what I thought was an appointment the place seemed to resemble feeding time at the zoo with the woman at the desk dealing with two or three others at the same time. We left with a slightly disagreeable feeling.
  5. Hello Peeps, I require a UK visa agent in Bangkok for my Thai gf. Minor issues re her history best dealt with by an agent. I don't want to go into detail here, either publicly or by DM (unless you are being exceptionally knowledgeable and helpful). I'm self employed and my retirement and more permanent move to LoS through property sale protracted by usual British solicitors dragging their feet over trivialities. Agent required needs to have sympathetic ear. Consider necessary relationship and financial issues dealt with at my end and family and property dealt with at hers. Thanks in advance. Seagull Sam
  6. Good point well made from the girl's point of view. A fat boozy old bloke old enough to be her father isn't exactly Prince Charming. After all they started working in the bar to keep their family didn't they? Now the reality hits home. For the falang it comes as a shock to find he has a poor village girl and mother on his arm living in a hut and eating ants. Didn't she look so beautiful made up and in those heels? If you go back home for any length of time she gets bored and restless and longs for her chums in the bar again. I have had two salaried gfs, one simply went back to the bar got involved in crystal meth and violently attacked me by kicking me in the head. (I'm 62 with a brain injury). The other appeared to be borderline alcoholic. Bar girls are a young(er) or butterfly man's game. Good luck to you all, despite the volume of unattched young women, its not the easy pickings it looks like.
  7. Babbling incoherently, naked, fat. It's what makes Pattaya the welcoming family resort the Thai government are always promoting.
  8. Apologies are due for not being a meteorologist. Also for failing to ensure sufficient investigations are conducted on this obviously academically critiqued discussion board.
  9. Hail are pellets of frozen rain - shome mishtake surely.
  10. Probably not by a lot. Since Brexit things have become a lot worse and government seems to have entered a time machine where all imigrants are treated with suspicion and 1970s style strikes are in fashion again. Going back to the original question the lady in question isn't so young, although I am significantly older, I have no plans to marry her and she takes her family responsibilities seriously. We are only looking at tourist visas perhaps summer in UK, winter in Thailand.
  11. It's not really in my nature to lie on official forms. I need a police form to get into Thailand from UK so it's likely we will need something similar travelling in the opposite direction. I don't think the Thais are sharp enough to keep information about minor offences, only the backhanders paid to the right uniform. I'll check with an agent or lawyer but I'm not holding out much hope. Thanks for your contribution nonetheless.
  12. Do these kind of bureaucratic niceties have the same significance in Thailand, particularly in the entertainment industry? Put it up, pay the necessary backhanders and worry abut the paperwork later (although probably greasing the wrong palms in this case). Perhaps I am being unnecessarily cynical.
  13. Not as I read it. It flies in the face of natural justice but I have 5 years to consider the matter if I am being optimistic. I voted Remain and would certainly never put my cross by the name of any of the self entitled public* school boys running the country now. * NB in England 'public school' means elitist private school.
