Will be available in all good books shop by Christmas with an expert doing it now. not sure which Christmas but? Will be a best seller with something for everybody. A sports section, travel tales, the truth on politicians, lots of intrigue and even a brief love story but a Clink expose will be the main chapter. I will post you an autographed copy if not deliver it in person. Mel Gibson will play me in the movie with Anthony Hopkins as banjo. Daffy Duck will play Shorten and the road runner as Hank Jongen as he escapes every time. But in this final chapter Wylie Coyote will finally get him. Yogi will play bear obviously as he's not your average bear, boo boo. In Cinemascope and technicolour. i have had many thoughts on the name. First was A form guide to ABI. But since then it has mutated to Lies,lies,lies and the truth perhaps? Any other suggestions welcome. Maybe a mini series rather than a movie even. I guess porky pig will play most politicians in general or better again Pinnochio. A one mile long nose needed by the props dept.

Unless it's essential you live there I'd be looking at Nong Khai, smaller, much nicer town only 20 minutes away on the river.

Probably more breeze in Nong Khai too, being on the river.

yes .Thanks for the tips.I like Nong Khai as well but my girl friend is closer to Udon Thani..The first month will be to set up a long stay visa for retirement .I guess Nong Khai has an immigration office as well as Udon Thani. I am not sure what office is the easiest to deal with when it comes to visas. Any Ideas on that front?

Firstly, I just stayed in Hug Hostel in Udonthani which was a clean basic guest house with en suite for less than 500 baht. Cannot remember exactly. Secondly there have been lots of visa rule changes lately so not sure where you stand. But previously i would say that after your first tourist entry finishes head to Savannakhet in Laos. easy enough to do from Udon. Go to Mukdahan than across the river. It seems no rule changes for those that are regulars but not sure about first timers. You could just go to Sanakhet and get the info after getting it in Udon also. Seems never to be the same at all immigration placesconsulates. Some easier than others perhaps.

Personally, i like both Udon and Nong Khai but would probably go for Udom because of better services etc

I have to leave the Phils by August this year for Visa compliance and it scares the hell out of me as my DSP conditions have only got worse.
The thought of negotiating through airports and planes is 'freaking' me out!

Thanks TransferWise is used by a few members dave3478. I do a "Pay Anyone" transfer from my Anz Account to their Oz Account, which then gets forwarded to my Bangkok Bank Account. Well not forwarded as such, because they do a money swap kind of deal. Someone wants to send money to Oz, someone in Oz wants to send money here.They are based in London and last night Aud$ 550 was good for Bht 12,200 fees included. Be here tomorrow. Cheers bear.
