I found crossing the border a bit intense. That Thai side I was met with scorn. Flicked my passport at me not even a head nod. The Laos side I was met with a smile and a korp jai as my passport was handed back. Oh boo hoo...wait till you go to an African country get an AK shoved in your face at passport control and the fkers steal your biro as well  |

Of course no genuine tourist would want to leave Thailand... |

Frankly I think that if you accidentally overstay your tourist visa and can prove that you were holed up in some village, they should pay you compensation for wasting your life. Not the other way around.

How about "do you know who I am?" together with a few hard currency notes in the passport and maybe a bottle to 'share'?  |
