  1. You should call Newcastle based Gazelle Travel.....
  2. Well 'overseas rates' should not apply. It is always best to travel over here with £, or send £ to a Thai bank. Never buy baht there! The Nationwide Flex account always got the rave reviews as previously it did not charge for the use of the ATM overseas, I believe that is not the case now. Perhaps Lloyds with the free £ travellers cheques... Myself I go for a bank with good internet services which make transferring to Thailand straight-forward and reasonably priced. HSBC 's Internet works well, and I have had a lot of negative feedback regarding Barclays, they make it hard to transfer your money.
  3. If it is a managed fund, don't you have to pay annual charges?
  4. I like 'what a crock' from the USA.. 'You're talking shite' always seems to hit the mark....
  5. I'll take your review, sounds more likely.Men in frocks waving their arms about and miming doesn't do it for me either. I laughed when I first saw the Tina Turner takeoff but that is overdone and tired now....
  6. Leslie Phillips.....
  7. Try here....
  8. 1. MUST NOTIFY WITHIN 24 HOURS FROM THE TIME OF ARRIVING AT THE RESIDENCE 2. MUST NOTIFY THE IMMIGRATION DIVISION IF LOCATED WITNIN BANGKOK AREA 3. MUST NOTIFY THE LOCAL IMMIGRATION OFFICE IF THERE IS NO IMMIGRATION OFFICE LICATED IN THAT AREA THE LOCAL POLICE OFFICIAN MUST BE NOTIFIED Look up the TM30 on the Immigration website.
  9. Errr Christian Bale.....
  10. Banks have recently proven themselves to be very good at mismanaging money. They needed government bailouts and continued to pay themselves bloated bonuses, money that should have gone elsewhere. If you are invested via a bank, you are behind the employees and the shareholders in the dole-out.HSBC World Selection Dynamic... I notice they charge you 4% initial so it is an immediate loss. The YTD figure is 3.76, less than the initial charge. Source..., hardly mind-blowing. I made more last month on one of my investments....
  11. I live here and own a motorbike..... you are correct, it is quite dangerous.
  12. Confusing post but I guess you are telling us you only have a UK car licence.....So basically you ride around illegally, unlicenced and inexperienced..... yes you should be careful, I will be too!
  13. Hilary Swank
  14. She would be in the Thai one...
  15. Geoffrey Palmer
  16. Kevin Kline

  18. It is, it is pretty standard to call that type of kitchen 'European'.......Whether it matches one in Romania, or one in Sweden is up to the renter to determine. Caveat Emptor

    New Car

    Having a motorcycle I am of the opinion everyone out there has bought a car that could kill me.My friends who have Toyotas seem to be surviving.
  20. Don't worry about getting old....... You most certainly do need photos. But I am not sure how long you can extend a Tourist Visa for.....I will check and get back to you... Later Edit.... According to the Expats Club website, TOURIST VISA. 60-day stay obtained from external Embassy or Consulate. (a 30-day extension is allowed - one time)
