I asked the person I spoke to specifically about email and he said they don't use email.

Just received my Proof Of Life letter from Centrelink. It was dated (written) 13/4/23 and posted on the 02/6/23 and received today, 12/7/23. It was supposed to be returned to Centrelink by today, otherwise pension could be stopped, so had to ring them and get an extension to the 31st October. Why the hell has it taken so long to get here? When I get the form completed I'll send it back by some kind of express post. They said it can be faxed, but who has a fax machine anymore?

I still have the pocket knife I was given 50 years ago. It's an Old Timer brand, made in USA I believe, and it's a great little knife.

I do know one undisputed fact, and that is a trans woman is a biological male. At least undisputed by those with a lick of common sense.

Men dressed up as women. You'll be telling me that they have periods and can get pregnant next.

Previously that claim would have been made about men winning female beauty contests.

Next we'll have Elliot (Ellen) Page being voted Man of the Year.

When Caitlyn (Bruce) Jenner was voted Woman of the Year, you know western society has gone stark, raving mad.

You may have to go to the online site and check whether it's been approved, then download the PDF file. I had to do that on my last online report as I wasn't notified by email that it had been approved.

I have more than ten watches, total value around 40,000 baht. Hardly a fortune.

I hate people who hate dogs.

Plenty of gold shops, not many jewellers. There used to be a good silver shop in Royal Gardens, but long gone.

I have a nice silver ring that's on the large size and can easily slip off my finger, so need it reduced. Have asked in jewellry shops in malls, but either they don't know or want to send it somewhere. Anyone know of a shop that does it on the premises?

No mention of rewarding the finder.

My header should read Male dog.

It seems to me, after watching the many dashcams showing accidents on Thai morning news, that 90% of these accidents are caused by motorbikes not paying attention.

Everyone's a comedian. Not.

The vet says our small <deleted>zu cross dog has an enlarged prostate an neutering is the best solution. They quoted 5000 baht which seems a bit high to me,

A stainless steel one from Lazada about 3000 baht.

Pumping from tank, which is full, and water comes, but the pump is running in pulses and eventually turns off.

I imagine new parts like diaphragms, switches etc can all be replaced, as long as the motor is still good, but finding someone who knows what they are doing is the hard part.

Hard to find an "expert" to fix anything. Sometimes they know what they are doing, sometimes not.

I bought a S/S tank from Lazada, like you say, not genuine Mitsu. Did you end up buying new pump?

I think the model is WP205, and it's around 14 years old. It's never missed a beat except for replacing the tank with a stainless steel one. It hasn't had a lot of use lately because the town water supply has been dependable and regular, but this morning there was no water so the pump got switched on. It used to run continuously as long as a tap was open, but now it "pulses", ie runs a couple of seconds, turns off then runs again, and eventually stops and no more water pressure. Any ideas as to the problem?

Research.
