  1. Yeah, Madam has shuffled a few bits of land around (her $$$). Always done at the land office, cash / cashier cheques handed over in front of the agent, tax paid, everything stamped. done. No real need to involve a lawyer.
  2. OK got it. The only way to know for sure is to look at the power supply inside your particular synth. If it is 110V only then an external transformer is the answer, it's not going to introduce any more noise than that switching power supply already does. You could get a 220V supply from Roland and replace your current one, but I be it would be silly money. EDIT This post suggests it already has a 110-220V supply internally anyway, but I would be checking before plugging anything in. https://forums.rolandclan.com/viewtopic.php?t=56644 EDIT 2 Your photos look awfully familiar ????
  3. Yeah, here in northern BKK we could do with a bit of it, there's been some damp at night but the garden is still brown and rock-like ????
  4. I don't think I suggested you buying a new instrument. You said; - Suggesting that it has a separate power supply (input transformer), a suitable local power supply would cost a few hundred Baht. If the beast is direct mains input (no wall-wart or power supply), then you already have your answer. If you were to tell us which make / model synth you have it may make life easier.
  5. If it has an external transformer then it should be easy enough to get a suitable unit here even if you end up with a 110V only instrument.
  6. Forget the 2-strokes. bite the $$$ bullet and get one with a 4-stroke Honda engine (even the Chinese copy Honda), start (almost) first time, every time and no need for mixing oil and petrol. We gave up long ago on the "auto-feed" heads, they either don't feed at all or feed out half a mile, we now use a simple head with 2 or 4 cut lengths of string, less wasteful of both string and time. We actually have two. Our first lasted 10 years before it became difficult to start, so I bought another whilst re-building the earlier one. It turned out that the starting issue was the electronic magneto, easy fix (parts from the local farm shop).
  7. About 40,000 passengers used it on day 1 ???? Most of them survived!
  8. Most, if not all, Japanese electronics has "universal" power supplies capable of operating between 90 and 250V at 50 or 60Hz. The rating plate on the unit will give you the relevant detail. If you don't know what you're looking at, post a photo ????
  9. I am of such massive age that ...
  10. And an excuse to play some Sarah Connor Hazel O'Connor (last verse is relevant).
  11. I have absolutely no idea, but I asked ChatGPT. Accurate or total <deleted> I have no idea, but I don't think I'd be paying that much for a used PC of unknown history.
  12. https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/canada/entry-requirements#
  13. Important note: - The trial running is only Hua Mak to Samrong (YL11 - YL23) and 09.00 to 20.00. No idea when the rest of the line will be available for trial passenger operations ????
  14. Meanwhile: - The earlier post about the limits of the trial is correct. Only Hua Mak to Samrong (YL11 - YL23) and 09.00 to 20.00. No idea when the rest of the line will be available for trial passenger operations ????
  15. Wasn't it Pedigree Chum that was supposed to give extra stamina?

  17. And your PC etc. will be needing a UPS.
  18. If you have MCBs in the DB then keep the N-E links in the CUs.
  19. "Deutch marks or dollarsAmerican Express will do nicely, thank youLet me loosen up your collarTell me, do you want to see me do the shimmy again?" Private Dancer - Tina Turner, sadly missed ???? Ken Bruce did ask where she swiped the AmEx
  20. If you have N-E links in your CUs then the RCDs in the dizzy board won't stay on. So, link N-E in the dizzy board, needs a longer bit of green wire.
