  1. A Youtube video shows using a pipe wrench to loosen the strut from the top fitting, also giving it a squirt with WD40 before trying to remove it. What does putting PVC pipe over the top part do?
  2. Was it a pain or a breeze?
  3. There was no reason given, just that's the way we do it, and we're not open to any change for the better.
  4. Anyone received a "Proof of Life" form from Centrelink? I rang them this morning and asked if they could send the form by email instead of post. Answer no, only post. Reason I asked is the last (first) one I received arrived afer the due date to return it because of the atrocious mail delivery here. This can result in the age pension being stopped, but it seems sending a PDF by email is too hard or too technical for C'link.
  5. Of course you would be invaded and stripped of all that by those who don't have those means of survival, if the situation became permanent. The veneer of civilization is very thin.
  6. Aussie sent them to Nauru or PNG, reduced numbers significantly.
  7. Wasted on me, my taste buds peak at 399 baht.
  8. If you come back you haven't really died.
  9. The Guru says: Get all the kicks you can baby, you only make this scene once.
  10. Would have thought there would be no shortage of local weed in a place like Sri Lanka.
  11. How old are you? I know at 83 my eyesight has deteriorated so that I no longer read books because of eyes strain, also watching the 55 inch TV can become blurry, it's actually better to watch a smaller screen like a 42 inch. Had eyes checked several time at Bkk/Pattaya hospital, once was told needed a cataract op, next time a different doctor said my eyes were OK. Who do you trust?
  12. He wrote the music, Bernie wrote the lyrics.
  13. It's supposed to be a comedy, but just seemed a bit silly to me.
  14. Gave it 10 minutes, looked like a 2025 version of Dukes of Hazzard.
  15. My partner and I (and dog) would like to get away for a couple of days to a nice dog friendly resort, no more than a couple of hours drive from Pattaya. Any good experiences?
  16. Could have condensed this to one episode, seemed like a lot of repetitive filler.
  17. Tried that to no avail.
  18. Think it's called Bionic, so ordered 3 boxes from Lazada.
  19. Not much good for septic systems or PVC pipes.
