As proposed by whom? I propose they do it only up country and not is the cities.

If Trump wants to leave Europe alone, fine. I suggest the Europeans should ask him to get that in writing.

It seems the women still didn't understand that Thais like proper clothing, especially when dealing with authorities.

Depending on the color a typical LED has a voltage drop of 2.0V up to 3.5V. Like Crossy wrote, 20mA is bright. 10mA or less should do the job (depending on where the LED is like bright sunlight or a dark room). If you want to save space, then use a lithium coin battery. If you have lots of space, consider a 9V battery.

No Yes, maybe in a couple of billion years.

Angelwitch had sexy lingerie many years ago when Mat still owned it. Some time ago I worked in a company and one girl did cosplay outside of work. Not bad.

There are enough Thai people who never want to see him again. And it seems there are more and more people like that all the time. They don't need a farang to explain to them that Thaksin is bad news. But then again, your experience in a red village somewhere up country might be different.

Can we please have a statement from the sick guy that from now on he will concentrate on his health and private family. No more public appearances, no more political comments, just a quiet life. He and his family did enough to divide Thailand. We really don't need more of him and his clan.

I am sure his comments will not reduce the numbers of his followers. Yesterday I saw this video. I think Glenn makes some interesting points.

I guess it is obvious that I am not an American. If they want to have laws and justice like that it's up to them. I just hope they wouldn't pretend all the time to be a wonderful example for the rest of the world. They are not. Obviously I don't know about what court cases are going on in the USA, I guess there are many. But following the news, I didn't read about any other similar case to this one. Maybe the reason is that there is no other woman with such demands. Or maybe enough people came together to go after Trump with a case like that. Or how many other guys to you know about who were convicted in a similar way?

Thanks But somehow I don't trust a product which is sold for 77THB - including profit margin for the manufacturer and seller. Maybe Electrolux or other brands use the same product and just put their name on it. I don't know. I would expect that they have at least a better quality-control.

Personally, I think it's a mickey mouse system in which a person can be convicted without any evidence. She doesn't even know on which day he supposedly raped her. Is that justice? I guess it's justice USA style. I don't really expect much from that nation but I still though they would look for evidence. Apparently not. I understand that he continues to say he didn't do it. Why should he "admit" he did it if he doesn't even remember that he ever met that woman? And about her reputation? She was the one who put on lingerie for him, at least that is what she claims she did. What kind of reputation can she possibly lose? And for the record, I don't like Trump. I think he should be in jail for what he did while he was president. But I think it's still appropriate to be fair and not convict anybody for anything without any evidence.

Just in case you didn't understand the connection: According to her, he asked her to show her some lingerie in the closet. She agreed to do that. And then she said he touched her. Why did she agree to do it - if it ever happened?

Yes, I understand what the trial is about. But I still think it is crazy that a in a case like that, without any evidence that he even met that woman in that store, he has to pay when he basically tells everybody he didn't do it. As far as I know even convicted murderer in jail are allowed to say they are innocent, they didn't do it. But it seems if Trump tells people he didn't do it (ok, he does it the Trump way), then he has to pay. I think that is strange. And this is why I asked if, according the members' knowledge, this is only something which can happen like that in the USA or also in other countries.

Electrolux replied that they don't have a 3m hose and they can't recommend anybody. I want a quality hose, but I have no idea about brand names for these kinds of products. This is the hose on the machine: I found something on Lazada which doesn't look too bad, but it's only 1.5m and I need 3m. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/2-15m-i4175056729.html I didn't find anything on the HomePro site. Does anybody here know a brand name product available online or offline in Bangkok?

Really? I don't like the typical comments like Trump all bad, or Trump all good. I think he acted often like someone who is mentally ill, but he concentrated on the USA, and he didn't start a war. And it seems he is not interested in starting another war, and possibly he will stop support for Ukraine if he will be elected. I think we should be fair and acknowledge this. I wonder how many Americans know how much money their nation spends for war and military all over the word. Is that the best way to use the not existing money? Or would it be better to use that money for the benefits of Americans in the USA?

I hope he goes to jail. And I hope that happens for a valid reason like insurgency, corruption, or something like that. And not because a woman claims, without any evidence, that he raped her almost 30 years ago.

I am definitely no fan of Trump, but sometimes the American justice system seems to be just crazy. As far as I know there is no proof that he even met her in that department store. And certainly no proof that he touched her. Let's assume for a moment he met her in that department store about 30 years ago. And according to her she agreed to go with him into a cubicle where she would wear some sexy clothes so that he can join her in that cubicle and look at her. Which woman, who is not interested in sex with a guy, would do that? So, if she did it, what did she expect? As far as you know could this trial and the huge payment happen anywhere else except in the USA? I think it's just crazy.

Here is what you shouldn't use - at least with TOTO.

In the hindsight that is where I should have installed that valve. But somehow, I thought it's best to have it right behind the washing machine. I will remember that for my next renovation - which will hopefully never happen.

Interesting. I didn't know something like that exists. Here is the direct URL from your post. Does anybody know if and where something like that is available in Thailand (in good quality)? Reliance Floodguard Hose Burst Shut Off Valve 20mm (3/4") Chrome - FG501 (plumbingplustrade.co.nz)

Thanks for all additional replies. I decided I will replace the existing hose with a 3m hose, and I will connect that under my sink where I have a spare valve. Then I can shut that after each washing or whenever I feel like it. I looked at the hose which came with my Electrolux washing machine. It is rated 15 bar and seems to be sturdy. I just contacted Electrolux if they have a replacement hose same quality with 3m length. Let's see.

Thanks for all your comments. I will have a second look how easy it is for me to use a valve which is maybe 2m away. And I am pretty sure I will buy a water leakage sensor or two. I have home automation and I will buy water leakage sensors which I can integrate. Then I can configure this so it will send an alarm to me if there is any leakage. If there is a leakage and I am at home, then I know where the water valves are. And worst case, if nobody is at home, then I can call the building management and they can close the main valve to my unit. Obviously, it's better to prevent any possible leak but such sensors might be a good idea and they are cheap compared to possible damage.

I think it is obvious what I am worrying about: A flooded kitchen/condominium. That is obviously something that I don't want. I am pretty sure any water pipes in the walls will not suddenly burst, worst case they will start to leak one day. If washing machine hoses never burst, then fine, then I don't have to worry. But I am sure some people will close the valve to the machine after every use. And maybe some people do that because they had a bad experience. This is why I ask. And I think worrying a little about a problem which could possibly happen is not really a problem. But maybe I don't have to worry because that just never happens...

In my newly renovated condominium, I have a water outlet behind the washing machine. This is in the kitchen between cabinets. I put it there because I thought that would be the logical position. Connect the machine and fine. But now I have second thoughts, because if I do that then I will have to have the water valve (behind the washing machine) open all the time. I wonder how high the risk is, that one day, maybe long time in the future, the water hose might burst and then there will be flooding - without a drain anywhere nearby. Did anybody of you have a big water leak with such a hose? If there is only a small leak, then I guess I will notice it, maybe the floor is a little wet, and then I can fix it. My concern is the probability of suddenly a major leak. I can't move the washing machine in and out after each use to close the valve. What I could possibly do, is to extend the water inlet hose by a meter or so and connect that to a water outlet under the kitchen sink. That is a valve which I can easily access, and I could close it after using the washing machine and/or if I am away for some time. How about you? Is your washing machine water hose always under pressure? Did you ever have any problems with that?
