How often aircon filter need changing?

Oops, a bit of a typo there, must have had a brain fart. Six months or 7500 km. -
How often aircon filter need changing?
AhFarangJa replied to giddyup's topic in Thailand Motor Discussion
Mine is changed at every service, ( Ford Ranger). so that is 50,000km on average. I also remove it and blow it out every three months, maybe not needed but is a habit I picked up in Saudi Arabia. I believe nearly all filters are situated behind the glove compartment nowadays. -
Thai army chief says “coup” should be removed from media’s vocabulary

No smoke without fire. -
Several years ago, well, over 10 actually, the Brother in Law was conscripted. He lasted three weeks then went AWOL due to the (in his words), incessant bullying, and slave labour. He came back to the village, but no-one came after him. He hid low around the countryside for a number of years then went to renew his i.d. card thinking they may catch him. Absolutely nothing. I.D. renewed, and never a tweet from the Army.

My firiend wants to buy a beer bar.

Around 600 beers, giving you have a 50 Baht mark up. But then you have to take out running costs, so it is not really a profit. -
Neighbour’s heroics save 2 year old from near-fatal fall in Chon Buri
AhFarangJa replied to snoop1130's topic in Pattaya News
Well done to the young lady, but I need to ask what the person who was filming the little girl was doing to help. It seems it is more important these days to film someone in trouble before helping them. -
Thailand Tourism Fee to be postponed until September
AhFarangJa replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
My I predict a thread headline in August.......................Thailand Tourism fee postponed until November..................... -
It is so blatantly obvious that the two big brewers here are behind this action. They do not want any competition. Yet, at the same time it is ok to plaster their names everywhere in the so called excuse that they are advertising drinking water. I just hope that the mp's pictured with him are picking up the tab.

Experiences suspending television service at True Visions.
AhFarangJa replied to Fortean1's topic in Audio Visual AV
Several years ago we took over a bar restaurant in Hua Hin. Went to the local True office to transfer names as there was 6 months to run on the contract, and it was easier than just cancelling. After six months we asked them to take the box etc. away. They said it would cost around 3,000 Baht. When I asked why they said my Wife had signed a new 2 year contract. Basically, they conned her as she specifically asked for just takeover. After two years we cancelled the contract, but they would not close it as they said we still had a tv box. Something we never had as the previous owner had it in their apartment, unknown to us. I said we never signed for it, but they insisted. We left it, but eventually had to pay 2,500 Baht after a court summons. We could have fought it, but in the end just paid and told them what we thought of their office, staff, quality of service, which was abysmal. We also told them, verbally, that we would steer any friends well away from them. -
Thavisin’s strategy: Replace conscription for economic growth
AhFarangJa replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
Exactly as this politician is saying, crazy system that belongs in the trash along with the dinosaur generals. My Son, just turned 18, has just finished his three years Ror Dor training. one afternoon a week, plus a six day camp every year. Now he has the papers he will not have to do the conscription when called up. -

The military will probably fight to keep the draft slavery. Who else is going to keep the officers chickens fed, pump the petrol in the Army owned gasoline stations, wash the cars, and assorted household duties for the top brass.
