If it was all fine and dandy in Gaza before the 7 October event, why has the UNHCR been squatting there for bloody ages with most of the population living in refugee camps? Looks like a "managed" humanitarian crisis just got unmanageable. There's a very wide gap between "fine and dandy" (which no-o...

^ Me too since 1978. First my parent's address, then my sister's and now my mate's place. The only way I see a possibility of being "found out" is if you have an at-fault accident? I was stopped by a Lancashire plod and he asked me why I gave him my Thai DL when his tablet gizmo showed that I had a ...

The beauty of a rhetorical question is, I guess, that you already know the answer - hence it seems rather fatuous. But just as a reminder, prior to 7 October there was no humanitarian crisis, including famine, in Gaza. Neither were humanitarian workers, trying to relieve that famine, being slaughte...

A Thai IDP isn't required to rent a car in the UK.

Wrong. Depends on the company. Need to read Terms and Conditions.

Agreed, but it's not a legal requirement.

See Jonathan Pie's latest take on this SNP farce.

If relocating permanently to Thailand, retaining and using a UKDL in the UK while not residing in the UK is illegal. Using the address of a property you still own in the UK on your UKDL while not living there is illegal. The fine, if discovered, is £1000. Getting a Thai DL is a two-step procedure wh...

I just goto the Imm office or BKK departures armed with a prefilled TM xx form (forgot number for Re-entry) on which I attach a photo in the relevant box. Nothing hard about it!!!! I have used the re-entry permit desk at Suvarnabhumi departure Immigration Hall #1 maybe a dozen times already. Never ...

You gotta' wonder..... World Central Kitchen Pauses Gaza Operations After 7 Workers Killed The nonprofit has become a crucial source of food for desperate Gazans.

Bit of a lottery then. I'll get it at the airport on the way out. They have my picture and passport data on file there and just take a new digital one to match with what's on file.

There's more extensive protection around the utility pylon footings further north of the bridge. Those smaller "baby" dolphin structures were probably deemed adequate for the average gross tonnage of the day 50 years ago.

While he downloads his body cam footage of the conversation.

...and then?

How many pictures do they need for a re-entry permit application at the Udon immigration office?? Or do they embrace the technology and snap your picture digitally at the desk?

Thanks for the warning. Hopefully there won't be a repeat of the Royal Thai Navy's recent "friendly fire" incident in Sattahip harbour.

I assume that the expired Texas DL I surrendered is gathering dust in a drawer at some police substation. Well played! So they accept U.S. drivers licenses? I have two Massachusetts licenses, got the duplicate when I misplaced the original, which I subsequently found. Happy to relinquish one of the...
