This time I am starting with a 60 day visa which I will extend by 30 days, and then I'll decide from there whether I stay longer or not; my last trip, which ended up running into Covid, was five months. Ah that’s great. Don’t be boring like me and bury yourself in a Chiang Mai condo because you wore yourself out from 100 shags in 2 weeks in BKK/Pattaya. See the Southern beaches, see Cambodia, check out a rooftop bar with a 1300 baht cocktail…..you get the point, EH? Have fun and safe travels, hope you give us a play-by-play like @Stillearly 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gord, if you are around BKK early Jan, would love to meet up with you again....Mr Smooth is going to be in town and a meet up at Hooters looks inevitable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek Dangleberries Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Bugger! I had plans to get out walking early but noticed there was no water in my pipes which meant that I had a leak somewhere. So at first light I switched the pump on and walked round the back to check. The gasket on the pump outlet is leaking. No problem, tiz a job that can be put off for a day or two, and I can get out walking today!! Except that a mate saw be walk around the back and come to take a look. He is now trying to find a gasket lying around somewhere to replace the old one. Great having Thai friends willing to help out! The pump is 10 years old from new and this is the first sign of it showing its age.. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a couple of good mates of 'older years' who also suffer now from the occasional leak, to date thankfully all my seals appear to still be in good working order !!! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek Dangleberries Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I've just gone to take a Thai style stand up wash from the big green bucket emergency water supply... I took the lid off and it is nearly empty..... The WWotN said that she has been using it up because she wanted it empty so that she could clean it ....... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twice the time at about 30% extra, seems like a bargain for train enthusiasts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zambo Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Just flown fron Don Muang. Very good. I checked in online and didn't have to go to the check-in counter (only carry on bag). My e-checkin voucher was then ok for immigration and boarding. Of course any low-bat phone problem would be an issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
