Yes, still mucking up the terminology! Year long extension of stay with an endorsed "Retired" stamp on the visa. Honestly, the very kind immigration officer at Phuket said "45 days". I assumed he meant that I had to wait 45 days more putting me at the 30 day prior expiration mark. But his English (understandably) is bloody hard to understand so he very well may have been saying within 45 days and not 30... Thanks for the congrats, much appreciated.
