Re: Buying a condo in Hua Hin Area
It always sounds like a good idea - a place of your own. But also think how many months you are going to live in it -costing out the rental against lost interest on money on the bank, and the freedom to go whenever you choose need to be taken into account. I recently sold my house and am now renting...

Re: UK Police report for retirement visa
My apologies, you are right. I just checked my old passport. I did indeed get a 90 day at Hull and an OA at the end of it in Thailand. Apologies

Re: UK Police report for retirement visa
Sorry I think there is a bit of confusion (on my part).
I got my OA issued at Hull in the UK. In the UK they never asked for a police report before they issued the visa

Re: starting a bike
Push it down to your local bike man. For a couple of hundred baht he will start it, clean it up and service it for you. Is is really worth getting your hands dirty for 200 baht ?

Re: Proxy problems
ITV, BBC some Sky etc are fine. I have never found a way of recording them though. Saying that the programmes are usually available for a week or so on the site

Re: Proxy problems
Check out Identitycloaker. I use it to watch UK tv programmes. About £6.50 per month on a 6 month subscription. The free ones are not up to much - thats why they are free I guess

Re: Police & Soldiers Charity Fund

Re: More demand for rental lodging in Hua Hin
I think rental is becoming the preferred option for many foreigners. An agent I know says his rental has quadrupled over the past year whilst sales have plummeted. I have recently sold my house (after 2 years on the market) and I reckon that the interest from the money invested pays more that half o...
