nosamluap, Please clarify - were you or your partner Thai, claiming re-patriation? If you were, then the rules on what you can take without paying duty have changed since my daughter re-patriated. Both myself and my wife are English and shipping the carpet into Thailand (tying to) but sent it back ...

First off I assume you mean exiting Thailand and getting another 90 day entry stamp on the same visa. If you mean getting a new one, it can't be done in Ranong. Is your visa for more than one entry? Assuming it is, there's no reason why you shouldn't drive. Ranong's easy to get to. Just follow the ...

In response to the shipping query, we have just had a very recent experience. (Feb 07) We had a persian silk rug that we shipped across from the UK via DHL. We put on the customs declaration that it had a value of £250 (but was actually worth a lot more.) After it sitting in customs for tw...

Hi all I have spent the last 90 mins trawling through the forum looking for how, when and where we renew our Multiple entry 'O' visa at Ranong, which I gleen is the nearest and easiest place to go to do it.

Jeees, Billingham, the biggest industrial wasteland in the world... and you joke about us Monkey Hangers!...

Well Im got that wrong didn't I? So it the two wheels and an engine type eh?!

Surely, you guys know that lycra is the biggest turn on in the world for the girls, not leather and levis!!

Hi all Thanks for all them messages and best wishes. We will definitely be at JWs tomorrow so please introduce yourselves to us. We will stand out because we're the one's sat by ourselves in the corner looking all frightened and shy!! Lock up your monkeys' though we don't like them! Will explain tom...

Hi Ive just joined the forum and didn't see the original posting, but I wondered whether you were talking about motor bikes or bicycling the manual way, as I do the latter??

Just read all of the above topic and find it very interesting that no-one has mentioned good old 'blighty' in the conversation. One of the main reasons, if not THE main one we came to Thailand is because of all the changes in society (and taxes!!) in England, all of which seemed to go against the br...

Hi, Paul & Sue here from sunny Hartlepool in England. :D We've sold up and moved here in January to start a mountain bike tour business. Just wanted to say hi to everyone and that we will be a regular contributor to the forums. Will try to get to Johnnie Walkers on Saturday Cheers Paul & Sue
