I hated it

Took my new 'Point & Shoot' to the lake today to give it a try - at least I'd be able to see what I was photographing. The carbuncle is starting to take a bit of shape but mini-constructions within the larger construction are happening. IMG_2229.jpg IMG_2231.jpg IMG_2238.jpg caller's 'Grand Entr...

I've somehow managed to creep ahead again. One thing that is sure, that would never have happened under the old IKTS rules. I'd have blown a few bankers and been scoring negative points by this stage. This Superbru version is nowhere near as complex as the original IKTS.

This week's competition has now closed. pharvey please watch your Inbox.

I did - still in shock at having to pay it after donating all of my spare Thai cash to Outlaws

Translates as:

Revenue Department
4 travel tax card
leaving the kingdom
Tax amount 1,000 baht
Tax payment date

This card can be used to travel outside Kingdom
within 10 days from the date of tax payment

A bit of nostalgia. I've been to one of Mrs BB's old passports, and there are a couple of 1,000฿ tickets still stapled in there.

Oh really? Old age must be affecting the memory - I've completely forgotten the 500฿ tax.

Was the 500฿ 'everybody' tax before or after the 1,000฿ 'Thai' tax? I remember paying the Thai tax (1990), but not the everybody tax.

I don't remember that one, but I remember the 1,000฿ tariff for Thais leaving Thailand. I'd just given all of my remaining Baht to the Outlaws who had come to see us off. I was not too pleased.

Really???

I'm sure the 300฿ tax will be spent very wisely to alleviate the problems

Its amazing only people not in authority can see that. 9 times out of 10 there will also be a lot of workers in the field ensuring the burning stays under control.

Every year they tell us it is illegal, and they will clamp down on it. Every year I travel around, and I can see burning carrying on quite openly. Every year I don't see anybody making any attempt to stop it. If I can see it, why can't the authorities? They talk the talk, but nobody is actually inte...
