TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation discusses the possibility of doing a same-day border run from Thailand to Laos, with participants advising that it should be doable without issues on the first attempt. Light-hearted comments about lunch indicate potential concerns about the meal but primarily focus on the viability of the exit and re-entry process.

this is a DTV group... So you could assume people asking about border runs have one?
