Tim Robbins

Quite a few of us know him, gaijin, though of course you don't. The point being that he isn't a complete stranger to many. The idea actually sounds like it might have some merit for some.

The Machinist

The English Patient

In Bruges (24 hour rule)

In the case of real estate ownership, the differentiation is between Thai national and non-Thai national. Farang has nothing to do with it, only Thai citizenship.

Three Kings

In my experience, I'm not referring to late or early arrivals of the flights. I am referring to rides that did not show or were difficult to locate. This has happened twice out of 3 dozen bookings, but after the last one, I stopped using Mr. T for arrival and only use him for departure from Thailand. I cannot give a blanket endorsement for Mr. T or any scheduled pickup, simply because the convenience of going to the taxi stand outweighs my personal dislike of trying to locate the driver and schlepping my luggage through the hot parking lot (even though the driver does do the schlepping).

Kalifornia

Julia Roberts.

Thanks. That was quite a dry spell! Hugh Grant.

Great story. I got a good laugh out of the rapid justice. I'm glad the authorities took the practical approach to this and didn't press charges against the good Samaritan.

Soi Diamond, next to Diamond Agogo.

A couple of missed or near missed connections at BKK with Mr. T's drivers, where I either was expected to wait for the driver to show up or wander around looking for him, and I became a metered taxi fan. I leave customs, go to the taxi stand, say "Pattaya", and I'm on my way. I have no problem with a taxi driver not knowing Pattaya, nor do I think many of the readers here do either. My arrival is about 24 hours after my departure from my lodgings in California, so the extra 500b is gladly traded for time and convenience.

Yeah, try searching for "movers thailand"

if you do a google search for "removalist", every single entry on the first page is an Australian domain, so it seems your term is more of a provincial Australian one than a part of the English language. In fact, there isn't one reference for removalist in England or the UK. Who's not writing English then?

That's great news. Let's hope they can continue with this level of service.

Thanks for the recon. I think they're gone altogether.

Alfie

Duh! Why didn't I think of that? Ok, The Man Who Would Be King (one of my all time favorites)

That's the worst I have seen it. That line is before you get into the immigration area too. What a total mess.

I renewed mine 10 days after the expiration date without any questions or comments, so part of that statement is false.

If you find out, let us know, will ya?
