Top 5 Chefs in Order.
Anybody who charges £30 for fish, chips and mushy peas, which is all of these so called celebrity chefs (how can a 'cook' be a celebrity? ) has no right to call themselves a chef. They are all pretentious A holes, charging stupid prices, for gullible idiots to pay. To answer the OPs question directly: Me My late Wife Any 3 fish and chip shop owners in Whitby, UK. -

Life in the Isaan Boonies.
It's Sunday. Snaps in the boonies. Eighth of September 2024. I bit late in posting about it; four days ago now. Busy with the farm news. Went to the number 4 Market last Wednesday. Bought 4 long tail kois, and ordered 200 pinkies for next month. Two blacks, a platinum and a yellow. Mildred said to put them straight into pond 6. Which we did. Also bought some floor mats for home. Fed up with tripping over old clothes. And anyway, I told Mrs Snaps to give any she didn't want to poor people. Didn't get a whack for suggesting that. Things are looking up. Bought six mats for 300 baht. There was one stall that was particularly busy. Some very decent clobber on sale for 40/50 baht. Ladies stuff. But there were some bargains for the guys. Always an unusual animal there. Music. Spicy sausages for me supper. Try not to get too near this stall. Can't stand the things. But did buy some pineapples. At the farm we had a little bit of contention. I wanted three trees to remain. The big one. And my two favourites. One on the main road and one in number 4 farm. The Mrs took the side of the business. I think I've won. Not been cut down; yet! I marked the two with old sacks. A couple of the pineapples have been eaten. I put the tops in a ring next to a little lime tree. Looking forward to seeing them grow. They are so easy to look after. All they need is sun, water and love. Bit like us humans. The other 5 pineapples are doing great. When in Ban Dung Wednesday I spotted a little Italian job. First one I've seen in these parts. What a beast!! The Ma in Law's house is empty and locked up as she is at her daughter Noi's place; just along the way. So it is left to me and Mildred to look after the cats. Either me or Mildred gives them food every day. Have six coming round now. +++++ Was looking forward to watching Russia v Thailand. Got cancelled at the last. Both the Highland and Lowland Leagues are smashing in the goals. Both have averaged 5 goals a game this month. Roll on the footy this week. The Champions League starts mid-week. Come on you Villa. I was champion of the whole world in last season's predictions. Well; of the 4k who entered the competition. From all over though. Won a luvvely trophy. Should be with me this month. https://www.predictthefootball.com +++++ Went to the farm this afternoon. The cutters are on the home stretch. Started number 4 today. They keep at least two days in front of the loaders cause the trimmers and stackers get stuck in next. Some hefty trees in this next farm. Pics next post. There have been 7 - not including the one that was half loaded when I got there today - truck-loads. Another 4/5 to go. That will make 12 or 13 loads all told. averaging out at over 25 tonne a load. The overflow pipe, that runs under the road from the paddy to the palm farm, has been smashed. That's a new job for me and Kun, when the euca cutters have departed. Nine metres of concrete 4 inch pipe to get. Also want to put stone down where the big wagons have damaged the road. Plenty of work later this month. Next month - October - there is the third solar system to put in. And a fourth the month after that; in November. No rest for the farang or the wicked. +++++ The lounge is filled up. The big bedroom is nearly filled up. Where to put Mildred's art? Her latest. Called 'Moonhead girl'. www.mildredart.com +++++ Thanks for visiting.- 2

DTV & ..question..
A visa cannot be extended. A single entry Non O visa valid for 3 months, is 'USED' on entry. A multiple entry Non O visa valid for 1 year, becomes invalid on the 'enter before' date. Neither can be used again for entry to Thailand. You wouldn't need a re-entry permit if you had a 1 year Non O visa, it would be multiple entry, and it certainly wouldn't have been issued by Thai Immigration. On entry to Thailand using a Non O visa, you are granted a period of stay, the stamp will state 'permitted to stay' until (90 days). At Immigration, you then apply to extend that period of stay, which is a permit. From Thailand Ministry of Foreign Ministry of Affairs; https://www.mfa.go.th/en/page/general-information?menu=5e1ff6d057b01e00a6391dc5 7. Please note that the period of visa validity is different from the period of stay. Visa validity is the period during which a visa can be used to enter Thailand. In general, the validity of a visa is 3 months, but in some cases, visas may be issued to be valid for 6 months, 1 year or 3 years. The validity of a visa is granted with discretion by the Royal Thai Embassy or Royal Thai Consulate-General and is displayed on the visa sticker. 8. On the other hand, the period of stay is granted by an immigration officer upon arrival at the port of entry and in accordance with the type of visa. For example, the period of stay for a transit visa is not exceeding 30 days, for a tourist visa is not exceeding 60 days and for a non-immigrant visa is not exceeding 90 days from the arrival date. The period of stay granted by the immigration officer is displayed on the arrival stamp. Travellers who wish to stay longer than such period may apply for extension of stay at offices of the Immigration Bureau To apply to extend your period of stay in Thailand at Immigration, you complete form TM7: APPLICATION FOR EXTENSION OF TEMPORARY STAY IN THE KINGDOM. (Extending your period of stay that was initially granted on entry). You're then required to sign a couple of other forms; Acknowledgement of the Overstay rules and form STM2, acknowledging the terms and conditions for permit of temporary stay in the Kingdom of Thailand, which clearly states; 'I do hereby acknowledge the terms and conditions applicable to this permit'. Permits extending your permission of stay do not allow entries to Thailand as a valid visa would, which is why you have to purchase a separate re-entry permit to keep any permission of stay already granted, valid on re-entry. Read your stamps carefully and understand their meanings. Even though a single entry Non O visa is 'USED' on first entry, your Immigration status remains as 'Non Immigrant' provided you consecutively extend your period of stay. -

That is revenue collection. Farang are from so called developed country and they should know the importance of helmet also. -

News Forum - Phuket outcry after drunk foreigner drives SUV into Bangla Road
I wonder why then at police check points I see Thais without crash helmets being ignored and Farang without helmets being pulled over?
