only hassle with monthly deposits is if your pension arrivers Jan 31 , Mar 1 and Mar 31 -- immigration will challenge the term "monthly" since there was no bank deposit in February -- i'm sure a donation to coffee fund might help them understand. Just part of the fun of living in paradise.
off point but a funny story -- the US forces first "use this" government travel card was Diner's Club. Made sense to someone with DC Points who saw their advertisements I suppose. Jumped through hoops "mandating" use of the MF'ing (mil speak) card for travel expenses or else risk non-reimbursement -- come to find out the on-post billeting offices around europe and asia did not accept Diner's Club.

I'm just reading daily for entertainment and you sir! - have made my day. No offense intended :)
