TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation focuses on the experience of applying for Thai visas in the UK, with participants discussing which embassy might be the easiest for approval. Most comments suggest that the Thai Embassy in London is the primary location for applications, noting that all visa applications need to be completed online. Some users share their positive experiences, with one mentioning their Non-O visa was approved quickly. The discussion also highlights confusion over the number of Thai diplomatic facilities in the UK, mostly clearing up that the London office is the Embassy and Hull and Cardiff are consulates.

Jacques Slabbert I trust you have now realised that your facetious response was uncalled for.

The heading of this group is not specific to any particular visa. There are several visas you might be looking for and they are completely different.
