Hiya everyone , well I did get my 30 day extension on Tuesday. Got to the Jomtien visa place 7.45 and there was already 5or6 hundred before me. So I thought that I might as well pay for my mistake and used one of the young visa lawyers. Cost me 2 thousand Bht extra but was worth it. Was only there 30 mins and the girlfriend drove me back this morning , in & out in 10 mins drove all the way along Jomtien seafront to a big seafood restaurant and had lunch. So all's well that ends well .😁
