Nakhon Sawan is known as the "Heavenly City" I think this started in the 1970's, apparently that number 1 showband of the time Showwaddywaddy (KAP) were touring the Kingdom and were due to play the Stadium at Nakhon Sawan they decided that this was to be the first time they played their new release "Heavenly" live, ever since then the name has stuck. I expect there will now be a run to get this downloaded and before the weekend, probably not this one though, this will be adopted as the song that will be forever linked to Nakhon Sawan, it may even become their anthem as loudspeaker vans tour the metropolis reminding locals of how wonderful it is to live and die here.

The similarity between showwaddywaddy and showady kap is purely conincidental!

It just show's you how low Showwaddywaddy stooped anything for a few bob A. I can see their lead singer now with his hair cut.
Having been through there N/S just after the flood I would have thought that Lonnie Donegan's my old man's a dustman would have been more appropriate for the Anthem
Just to let you know that K.P.Phet is known as the Diamond City, it's to do with the Farang's that live here, it's I think that we are all Diamond's. Allegedly.
I have left out remark's on the Dying bit, that remind's me of yet another tune a Foggy day in London Town. I think the word's go something like this a foggy day in Nakhon Sawan had me low had me down. I viewed the morning with much alarm has this place now lost it's charm. ECT ECT. Franky boy sang it.
T.T.A. K.P.Phet.

Yes Loonie Donegan was here a few weeks ago, 2 a couple of weeks of one night stands then someone put him in  wheelie bin! Cant think why.

The Mae Sot visa run  looks set for the friday the 16th, apparently there is a service out of NS bus station on the hour so we will try for the 8 am departure. I have requested dark windows and no bunting but I am sure someone will get wind of the event and there will endless stops for photgraphs. Sometimes being a "superstar" and "local hero" does have its down sides!"

Of course I have no control on the other side of the border so am taking lots of signed photos and my new winner, guanranteed lottery number for next draw only 100 bts! .

So it's OK for a shaved headed guy, tattooed with ear-rings, wearing a string vest with a bottle of Heineken in hand to border-cross but he has to leave his Rottweiler behind.

When I first read your post I thought that you had seen me at the check point the other day. Then I spotted the Heineken bit, I had a Tiger. Come on now own up, how do you know my wife's name is Rottweiler.

Oh !! nice one.  Yeah !! my wife is cute but has a bite like Pit bull.

I heard that people from Nakhon sawan are carried across the border by sedan chair and are given 500 bts to leave is this till the case and ! what happens on the return journey? A chap in Pooket told me you came back across the river by raft then an old routemaster  bus would be waiting to take  us back to the immigration office what will they think of next!

Just to confirm that the Mae Sot Friendship Bridge Visa Crossing is open i went on the 2nd Jan 2012 and got my 90 day non imm. o re-entry stamp no problems just like it was before. If you want to confirm it is open before you leave home telephone 055563002 for upto date information.

[Sigma]

I also confirm that the Mae Sot border is open. We went there on the 29th of January 2012 for a visa run. We had to pay the 500baht in Myanmar and they kept the visa until you come back to the border.

We only loosed half an hour when entering back to thailand because only one officer was working.

Don't know only go once a year for 30mins in immigration and go back home.

People from Nakhon Sawan sounds scary, delusions of grandeur !!  First sign of a maddness disorder, maybe there's radiation in the smog.

It was me, did you really guess that right
Mae Sot today, easy entry to Thailand, no questions asked. But when I departed, took almost 10 min and when I finally picked my passport, I saw they had wrote down 8 or 9 my previous entry/exit dates behind departure card. Still, no problem, just had to wait more than usual.

thanks for the info and number, i have  a visa run coming up soon and will try the m/s crossing.

[canphotog]

does anyone know if there are visa run vans/transport out of sukhothai or do you just take a bus to m/s and tuk tuk to the crossing? Also i read there is a 500bt fee, is there any other requirements like photos...
thanks for the advice.

[edwinchester]

Not sure about transport as I always drive myself but all thats required is 500 bht on the Burmese side, no photos as they have cams.

From the bus station the motor bike taxi is 80/100 bt and they will wait for you, 500bts to the Burma folks, they are very nice and will turn you round real quick if you ask, did not ask for a photo either, have a good day.

Got home safe yesterday no problems no traffic jams at 430 pm at mo chit.
thanks for the info.
visa run from Sukhothai:
I believe there is 1 van per day leaving from Sukhothai bus station to Mae Sot ( best i could understand anyways ) but it was full so i don't know the details.
there are lots of buses between Sukhothai and Tak. bus is 53bt
there are vans between Suk and Tak 60bt
Vans from Tak to Mae Sot are 78 bt
the trip from Suk to Mae Sot took less than 3 hours including transfers and waiting. Travel time was about 1 hour from Suk to Tak and 1 hour from Tak to Mae Sot
The motor cycle taxi was 60-100 bt to the border I got mine for 60, a thai had to pay 100 go figure, there were no tuk tuk or taxis and trip is 6 km or more.
the fee is 500bt (don't forget to get your departure stamp) for the 24 hour visa.
very simple. I walked around Myawaddy for a couple of hours in the heat, don't know what i was think but my brain cooked. The town is pretty amazing with some really cool photo ops. Can't wait to explore more and hopefuly one day myanmar will grant visas on arrival at the border, that would be great.
thanks again for the advice.
