    Just remember, rats "home": -

    "Pantone" is one of a number of colour standards, but do be aware of batch / manufacturer differences if you are actually trying to match. Not paint but wall cladding, same Pantone number, different manufacturers!

    Definitely some discount correction going on, not going to complain ????

    Sorry, as an AN Mod, we get first dibs at the rain! But we only want it at night when it won't interfere with our solar.
  5. Crossy
    Is that for raw batteries?

    And soooo many members thought this was an AF joke!! You are now entering The Twilight Zone - Do do do do, do do do do!

    Do you really think I'd let her loose on here, do I look like a masochist (sadist maybe - I'm a mod after all)??? I have enough issues with what she posts on FaceBore

    She's out being made beautiful, the grandkids arrive from the UK on Monday ????

    The excitement is building! Our man has been but I'm at work so can't post the bill. Yet!
  10. Crossy
    Yeah ^^^, condos are usually (but not always) government rate. Apartments are privately metered and so can pad the bill (there are official limits but ...)

    That is my assumption, my first pink card was free, I'm over 60. I've never lost it so I can't comment on replacement. I may have missed it, but is our OP over 60?
  12. Crossy
    Offhand no, the Motoring forum would be the place to ask what the core fee would be. 500 Baht for a "tested" used battery sounds cheap.
  13. Crossy
    Used lead-acid batteries are far too valuable for recycling to ever be free.

    Lithium makes up about 0.002% of earth's crust, but in geologic terms, it isn't particularly rare. There is also a huge amount in sea water. Meanwhile. Lead makes up only about 0.0013% of the earth's crust (slightly rarer than lithium), but it is easily mined and refined. I agree with @Muhendis, lead-acid isn't dead yet.

    Yup, I paid a big, fat, zero, in cash!
  16. Crossy
    Yup, because I paid for it. Note that it is a "for-life" card as she (and I) is over 60.
  17. Crossy
    All clear now @asiaexpat ???? I wonder if the pink card is cheaper because the blank is lower cost (it doesn't have the smarts that the pukka Thai blue one does). IIRC my pink ID was free on first issue, but I'm over 60 so got a lifetime one.

    Long, long ago when I was at uni. the Student's Union decided to give away free condoms with a similar message. They decided that the best way to distribute them was to put one with every copy of the SU magazine. To prevent them getting lost they were stapled to each mag

    I was responding to this! EDIT I don't know how much Thais under 60 are charged, so you may have received a deal, but TiT so ... I'm assuming you are under 60 as you got a 10 year card.

    Madam "lost" her for-life Thai ID, replacement was free even though lost and no police report. "Lost" because the bank told her she didn't look like her photo. So she now has one where she looks 19 61 and a special one for the bank only.

    Whilst we are on the subject of Lazada, Madam fended off a potential COD scam for 900 Baht "we haven't ordered anything"! I never use COD, period! Anything which might attract duty I always warn her.
  22. Crossy
    Well, I think you should have received a discount for January, but not >200 Baht ???? I know @JAS21 got his MEA bill recently, anything interesting?
  23. Crossy
    Interesting, I wonder if that's catching up from previous months when they under-discounted you? Our man will come on Friday we shall see what transpires.
  24. Crossy
    Google Translate is definitely your friend ???? If switching Lazada language to English doesn't work, I change to Thai and use the Chrome built-in Google Translate.
  25. Crossy
    Yeah, our two chihuahuas get Pedigree "mini" dried food supplemented by the "extra" chicken / rice / veggies / pork that Madam cooks. I swear that sometimes they eat better than I do ????
