Its all a case of moderation. If you know your going to have a few beers then you have to make allowances. A bit of self research goes a long way. Example, you know you will be having that holiday and your going to have some beers, lots of food and have a good time then make sure before hand you cut down so you dont pile on the weight. When there make sure you drink extra water and try and balance out the bad with the good food as much as possible.

With regards to planning for your move, who in the UK could have planned for Brexit and it's results so far on the pound and it's universal fall from grace?

[@Blackinthailand]

Yes a real spanner in the works. Mind you the Baht slipped the other day and went to nearly 42 to the £ so lets hope eh?

With regard to the TM6 perhaps you can explain this. on the back it states that if I stay more than 90 days I must notify in writing to the nearest immigration office concerning place of stay, yet my passport stamp on entry only gives me 30 days. What is the conflict.

[@Blackinthailand]

TM28 is what you fill out on the plane, that gives U.K citizens 30 days.
