  1. I can't imagine that a pressure washer of normal dimensions would damage roof tiles (unless they pick it up and drop it). The only things you can change on a washer are" distance from the object being cleaned and intensity of the jet. Just tell the guys to start with an open jet (not a direct, pinpoint jet) and see how it goes. It will be difficult to ensure that no water at all will penetrate between the tiles, but that applies during heavy storms anyway.
  2. Well, yeah, that's a good, rational argument. McD's say they have no trace of her ever working for them They checked twice. That doesn't matter. What matters is when people have their precious world view challenged, and respond with "that's a lie".
  3. Oh, it's substantiated alright, even MacDs has said they can't fing any record of her employment. Try reading something else than your current news source.
  4. I have seen Turmeric planted in such situations, and believe me, after a year or two it really takes over. Cash crop also. Plenty of other tropical herbs are equally useful.
  5. OK, so vote for Kamala, who seems to be mentally unstable and judging by her performance in recent interviews, incapable of forming a rational argument (or sentence) , negotiating or making a decision.
  6. My granddaughter just spent three months allocating TIN's to people that didn't have one., including some Thais. If you don't know your number yet, you will when the time comes.
  7. FEMA has failed multiple times in the past to overcome its bureaucratic nature when an emergency occurred. He NEVER said to inject bleach, nor any of the other outright lies that are told about him.
  8. After getting my grandchild through 10 years of schooling, I can categorically state that: you will learn when the holidays start about a week before. As for the end of the holidays, you may (as we experienced it) receive a message at 9pm on the Sunday, telling you that school starts the next day. It may turn out that what actually happens is a totally unimportant 'orientation day' to be followed by another week or two of, not holidays exactly, but being unable to plan any excursions with the kids. I have the feeling that not even the class teachers know any better, only the school head acts on a whim. You get used to it.
  9. If you are sort of 80 years + or so, most doctors will be happy if they can reduce your BP to 140/. Not to say that that is desirable, but the side effects of BP lowering drugs at that age becomes important. Questions asked should be: do you smoke, alcohol consumption, exercise, consumption of carbohydrates (which includes sugar and starch)...? Seed oils and ultra-processed foods also play a role. It's not just about living longer, it's about living a healthy life for as long as possible.
  10. There is no proof that saturated fat is harmful. I thought that this was slowly becoming known. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9794145/
  11. Farang muck. Use coconut oil.
  12. It still confuses me why Farangs still recommend olive oil here. It will usually be adulterated and expensive or unadulterated and VERY expensive. Coconut oil is a much better solution.
  13. Living alone was an excellent period for me. After 27 years of marriage and three years with a girlfriend, I decided no more women in my life, and lived alone for another four years. So I learnt how to cook, fill out my tax returns, do my accounts, generally to look after myself. When I did finally decide to find a partner, I was apparently much more capable of living with another person. Been with her for 12 years now and it works. Maybe I was triggered when I received news that an aunt had been found upside down on her stairs, where she had been for 36 hours with a broken hip.
  14. As we live in Thailand, maybe coconut oil is the better choice?
  15. Some websites warn against taking certain herbs (turmeric for example) as they may lead to low BP.
