So, all I need to do is make up a company and write a letter from them to the British Embassy in Bangkok saying that I need to visit a few dodgy countries for work, and Bob's your uncle.

Worth a shot.

They can only say no, but would have to a registered company I would think

Quite easy to make up the registration number or even say it is a foreign company.

I have two US passports.
One has the normal blue jacket and the other is red and contains a stamp that says, "The bearer is abroad on an official assignment for the United States government."

I should have surrendered this passport when I retired, but didn't.

That's right. Forgot all about the "official" passports. I used to have one but they didn't ask me to surrender it, they just cancelled it and gave it back....

I have three passports plus one permanent right of residence card.
If you have the right or ability to get more than one passport, I certainly think you should.

Now you've done it with that disclosure. Set yourself up for attack from the radicals and pacifists!

This is my first ever post!
Yes you can have two passports
I am from the UK and have two, but needed a letter from my employer to apply for this. The reason being that my work takes me to many countries and at times my passport may be 'away' getting a visa.

You might want to put your first post in a current thread but well done anyway
