On two occasions I've made my taxi driver from Swampy to Patters pull over and I've taken over the driving.
The first time I'm sure the idiot was legally blind and couldn't see past his nose. When it started raining he slowed to 30 klm/h and we were being passed by everything. He didn't seem too perturbed when I took over the wheel.
The second time the guy kept nodding off at the wheel. After I had to smack him on the back of the head three times to wake him up, I'd had enough. He slept in the back seat while I drove.
Once I flagged down a taxi in Patters because it was raining and I was just a tad drunk and couldn't be arsed with a song-taeow The muppet had racing slicks fitted. We surfed all the way to Jomtien.

Pleased you appreciated the humor.
A suggestion - if the remote doesn't remember the previous state and needs resetting every time they're plugged in, try cutting all the wires close to the controller and splice in the appropriate length of cable you need to maintain the controller at a reachable height.
You could solder or simply use a screw connector to make safe. I'm reasonably sure they're only 12V on the light side of the controller anyway.

I could probably only say it if I WAS under the influence.

Happens all the time, especially for gambling dens. It's always a case of not passing the appropriate amount of gratuities up the chain of command or for operating in another copper's territory. The BIB are extremely territorial as franchisees - similar to Soi dogs in more ways than one.

Use an 'andle - a broom 'andle to push the button eight times. Fork 'andles might also work.

Never go to any government department anywhere in the known universe on a Monday, especially if after a holiday.
Government officials are naturally lethargic (it's a pre-requisite for employment) and on Monday mornings all civil servants inevitably suffer from Monday-itis Syndrome. They are slower than usual (hard to believe I know), and if they can find a way to make things difficult for you, they will. Their desire to achieve nothing is only exceeded by their constant need to exercise their pettiness and feel smug at your expense.
Tuesday is not much better because of Tuesday-itis. Similar to Monday-itis but not as bad in severity.
Thursday is internationally known as the best day to bestow your presence in front of civil servants, especially in the mid-afternoon. By that stage all the lethargy they've exuded in the prior 3 1/2 days makes them realise they'd better achieve something before 5pm Friday, so they shift into 2nd gear and speed things up.
This is the time when they will let a few minor issues slide because they've fulfilled their smugness quota for the week and they are looking forward to the upcoming weekend. They go into cruise control and provided you don't hit them with a pitching wedge you can get away with lots more than on a Monday.
Fridays are a toss-up and can literally go either way depending on their weekend plans. The only advice I can offer is if you are able, try and be the person after the person that gives them real grief and argues with them. You stand a chance of a free pass because your documentation is only 5% wrong and not totally wrong.
The above is paraphrased from The International Bureaucrats Handbook and Official Modus Operandi.

Oh how I wish this were true, we have a multitude of feral cats wandering about destroying all the bike seats & tires and defecating all over the place.
You need more soi dogs.

Nature has a way of balancing things. Soi dogs are why you don't see that many feral felines (of the four legged variety) in Patters.

The recommended weapon to deter all snakes is a 7-iron. A 6-iron will work at a pinch.

Go back to the PTT station explaining the situation and leave your contact details. Odds are 50/1 Rebecca will rock up there today looking for her purse.

A tactful observation of a tactful observation.
But unfortunately a gentle slap on the wrist rarely awakens one to reality as much as a sledgehammer to the back of the neck.

Even Winston Smith never had this sort of sheet to deal with.
I suggest you throw your party at the Chestnut Tree Cafe, a place where The Party does not allow its members to have feelings such as love or camaraderie for one another, but Victory Gin is plentiful.
Apologies to Eric Blair.

My strategy to avoid covid is to make the shape of a cross using my two index fingers and utter the words "be gone thee
satancovid!"It worked for the 15th century Jesuits to scare away the devils, goblins and witches so I fail to see why it won't work for me.
It was proven science then and apparently remains so.

I married a mosquito killing device that also doubles as a washing machine. Only downside is the running costs are extremely high.
At night try having a faint night-light in the room and have a small rubbish bin with a black plastic bag liner. The Mozzies will be attracted to the darkness and settle there. In the morning zap the bag with spray and they're gonners. This even works outside at night.

Try opening in safe mode and restore to a previous backup point to unwind the upgrade, and then turn off auto update.
Mind you, the chances of there being a valid restoration point available is akin to winning the Thai lottery. I did it successfully recently and had a hard on for a week!

Oil is a minor cost compared with overall running costs and note from previous poster regarding spark plugs, you don't have any in a Diesel engine
That's funny - as a teenager working part time at a gas station my boss (Clem, may he rest in peace in that great workshop in the sky) told me with an extremely straight face that "they haven't yet invented an engine that I can't squeeze another quart of oil into or charge for a new set of spark plugs".

Just another example of Thailand, Land of Dinosaurs. Which is exactly how they promote tourism in some parts of the country, such as Issan. In my area there are signs over 100 kms from a 'dinosaur' park where, apparently, there is a footprint that may or may not be from a dinosaur.
Is that the one that's signposted as "Real Dinosaur Footprint".

It always comes as a shock to the unfortunate individuals that fall to the left of the distribution curve that it is actually a mathematical requirement that 50% of the population have less than average intelligence.
