Yes just go to the Air Asia site. Book directly with them early and you could save a bundle, I just did a quick check and got 2500 baht for a return flight in early November. Irrelevant that you are in the UK. The booking will accept a UK CC and you will have to take the hit on currency exchange.

I believe so, doubt they will stop this lucrative earner that doesn't upset any locals.

Well it is certainly cheap enough, when I went it was completely free. It was about 3 weeks back, I think it was the 29th May. I was able to walk over the bridge and get to the pits which was great as a friend was racing. This was 1000 cc bikes. You are correct that I couldn't really see what was going on behind but I was able to get right up next to the track. being right on Rt 36 makes it easy to drive to and park. Next meeting is 3rd July, election weekend, so if the bars are closed it might be a good day out. Mind you there are a lot of twisted individuals go there, I was oggling up the pretty girls carrying the countdown cards, but most of the others were looking at bikes and touching themselves up.

Now now, 80,000 baht might get a few of us expats through the shorter months.

Well I might go along with the possibility a TG interprets a well dressed person with an affluent one. But I have also seen plenty of girls go off with scruffy guys. I woulldn't put too much weight into a one-off event with a scruff who also happened to be a cheap charlie. I still believe the girls go for someone with a smile and a well padded wallet.I recall some half wits on this very board going on about buying local deodorants, as the girls preferred the smell and would be more likely to go with you!

Let us just move on and stay in the real world with....Anthony Hopkins...

Aha, so Insomnia is operating under a restaurant licence!Nah, I'll go along with the big-bribes.

Had you lived in easy proximity of a border the visa runs would be acceptable. I just thought the new Non-Imm O from the UK would be the best for you. Everything you want is not always possible.

So I am kinda thinking they rather like this recent Police effort.....now.

is it? Richard Gere.... (who also flashed his bits, not too impressive..... )

He may be somewhat phased by a guy eating the bananas then......

From what you have said in the OP and the thread, I am inclined to disagree with Joe and say get another non-Imm O multiple while you are in the UK. Particularly if your couple of months there will be mostly after Christmas. It will give you a potential 15 months beyond your return from the UK. Then perhaps you can make the spousal extension without paying the 'fee' of 19,000 baht. Be aware that I hear Hull are not as easy going as they used to be with their non-Imms, and you will be on the 90 day visa runs to Cambodia or wherever. Good luck.

23,000 BTU sounds excessive for a 40 sqm room. I have a unit of that capacity for my large lounge/ dining room. Over-rating is a waste of money as these big units are expensive, and the compressors are heavier to fit on a condo outside wall or use up the balcony. They will cycle excessively and use more power. You would not need to go so big unless the room had high ceilings and was south facing, or had a large window area, or you were baking pizzas in there all day. 40 sqm is 430 sqft (for you USA guys), about the size of my bedroom. The 12,000 Samsung unit I have is more than adequate. I admit it is used only at night-time.

Well Boeing seem to be going with the Trent 1000 on the Dreamliner. A better indicator might be the number removed from service.

No, nor is a green badge and a few thousand baht I suppose. But it seems better than having my time and money wasted on a very likely no!
