Long time guys..


Finally got my bike out this weekend after a very long winter.

Biked some km's to see the yearly Tulip Festival.

Interesting tulip.

I've never seen one quite like it.

It's a rare double tulip.


It was a long Winter but Summer is finally here

Welcome back MM.

It can't be that rare, there's three of them in one picture.

A double hatric or a hatric double?

Looks nice.

I deepened the photo, altered the contrast and sharpened it up to add some pop.

^ More realistic than your last Photoshop effort in my pond thread, at least.

He says with a hint of regret.

^^^Looks nice, I don't normally edit my photos too much. I got a new iphone 16, so that is the pics from that.

Welcome back MM.

Thanks, hope all is well with you and y'all on TD.

Never heard of a double tulip, but now that you say it it doesn't look like a tulip at all. lol
Comes from this bunch.

I thought you quite regularly tip toe through the tulips

^Haha!

I was told I was the best teacher ever today by one of my grade one students. I said, 'oh, why do you say that?'
She said in no uncertain terms, 'because you are so fun, and get us to do so many fun things. '
Made my day! I guess my letting them watch a full movie last Friday, was a hit. They even clapped at the end.

^ wait for it......

Is Tulips still open next to Phrakanong BTS?

Was apparently the place for... what Tulip is slang for. Accidentally walked in there by mistake, and left as quick as I could. Which was around two or three hours later.

Not in the least bit surprised. Your one of those ​teachers.

This could have been a moan, I'll take the silver lining.

I did my 90-days online, as usual, and got the confirmatory email, as usual. Then days passed with no response, which is not usual. Today would be my last chance to go in person so with the application still showing in the system as pending I thought I'd better take myself down to Immigration. Which is more of an adventure than it sounds because I have had food poisoning these few days and stepping outside my gate was the furthest I had been from the bathroom in that time.
Our local office is usually a sleepy place, unfortunately the one customer in front of me was a nun doing her annual visa. Not a quick process. The tummy held out.
It turns out there is a computer problem. Maybe just this office, I don't know. The officer told me no one could get their 90 days done online at the moment and they were waiting for Bangkok to fix the problem.
The good bit was when she asked for my passport, scanned it and printed out the completed 90 days application form. Just sign and we're done. So easy. Is it always that way now? No need to fill out forms by hand?
Back in the truck and home before the bathroom called again.

My guess would be that it depends on the office.

Yes, in Udon (and Loei, kalassin) its so easy now, in and out in minutes. Unfortunately they are moving office again, kinda north of the city or is that where you went?

It was the last time I went to the office to do it, maybe a couple of years ago. And I don't recall having to sign it either.

I go to Nongbualamphu. They can be stern, mostly helpful, usually not busy.
It is some time since I did a report in person, the online process has worked well for me.

^ oh, right, I keep forgetting Nong Bua is a province.
