I am
asked often how the new visa rules in Thailand are
affecting me. I must admit I never used to do the
visa run every 30 days as many used to do, instead
entering on a 60 day tourist visa issued outside of
Thailand, and renew it for a further 30 while I'm there.
If I do spend more than 90
days consecutively a visa run is neccessary, usually
to Cambodia or Laos.
I suggest
anyone planning stays up to 6 months to use this method, using
up all 3 -30 day entry permits then applying again for the 60
day tourist visa outside of Thailand. A good way around all of
this (which I'm looking into) is to register a business in
Thailand, and then apply for a non-immigrant B visa. This is
fairly simple to set up, and would recommend using a reputable
company to do the work for you. Sunbeltasia.com is the best to use,and at an all up
cost of 50,000 baht for peace of mind its probably a good
investment.
Have had a month in
Australia, after january and feb in Thailand we had a huge
electrical storm in early march in Sydney, and managed to get a
couple of amazing pics of it over the harbour-hope you enjoy
them...

on a bus in Bangkok...Yes they can sleep anywhere!

Eventually got a couple of
good photos of one of the fire dancers on Koh Samet
Anyone thinking of visiting
the small pool bar in the alleyway between sukhumvit soi 5 and
7 (snookz bar) by all means have a game and a beer but buy one
of the lovely ladies a drink and it will set you back
180Baht!!.. more expensive than most gogo's. There is
conveniently no lady drink price on the menu either, so my
advice-stay clear, and go round the corner to the upstairs area
of the Beirgarten on soi 7, or New Wave bar just a bit further
down the soi.

Well its almost time to hang up my
thongs (flip flops to anyone outside Oz!) in Thailand for a
couple of months and head back to Oz for a few weeks, before
going to the U.K for a family wedding. Will be stopping off in
hawaii and South America on the way over.

Old habits die hard!, met this

great night.

Made it back to
Oz last week and had a
couple of nights in
Bangkok beforehand, tried
out
the Majestic
Grande for the first
time (just behind the
Marriot) and highly
reccommend the place. It
is a bit on the costly
side- 3,000 Baht upwards,
but good value compared
to similar hotels with
the same
facilities.
At the airport
on the way out, I found a
great free wifi spot in
the departures area.
After going through
passport control, turn
right and walk 3/4
minutes to the area where
the cafe's , bars, and
fast food places are. On
the right, there is a
small cafe before the
burger and pizza place,
there is a good free
connection there and will
help pass a bit of time
before the dreaded flight
home!

Stumbled on a
website recently
called
myairfaresecrets and as I travel
so much I bought a copy
to see what it was all
about. I have to say
there are some pretty
good tips and secret info
on how to get great deals
on flights and hotel
stays and at only $25.00
it will pay for itself
many times over, I have
already used some of the
tips to get a great seat
on my next flight to
Japan. Give it a
go!

Its no secret
now that being an Ebay
affiliate can make you a
lot of money, however its
always been a chore to
set up a site linking to
ebay and collecting
commissions on sales and
clicks. I looked at it a
couple of years ago and
decided it was too much
for me, and since then
dissmissed it completely,
but a couple of weeks
ago
I found this
website and bought in
straight away. Its so
easy to use and once
online creates
commissions almost
straight away, I wish it
had been around 2 years
ago. Visit
http://affiliates.ebay.com to see how it
all works and how much
you can earn.

Just had a
couple of weeks in Tokyo
to visit some friends and
while there had a great
night out in Roppongi,
the main expat
entertainment district in
Tokyo. Met these
seriously hot japanese
girls in a nightclub, and
have to say the they
certainly give their Thai
sisters a run for their
money in the fun
department!

Been a bit out
of touch lately as I have
actually been doing some
serious work on my eBay
affiliate websites which
I have great hopes for, I
will be posting some
links to them soon so you
can see what
theBANS software can
produce. Hope to have it
organised in the next few
weeks-bear with me while
I test how well the
software
works.
14/9/2007
To continue with
the new software I have
been testing, I used a
some domain names I
registered a while ago to
do the trials on, they
are;
www.downloadhighway.com
www.jimmy-shoes.com
www.aussiedogsupplies.com
I have had them
online for a few weeks
now and are already
showing profit!. if
you're intrested in
replicating this style of
website, I have written a
"how to"
page here. Frankly if you
really want to develop a
steady income online you
cannot go
wrong with
this.
