  1. The major fuel sources, LNG, oil and coal, are in a global market, pretty much one price for all (over simplified, but you get the idea).
  2. Posted before I'm sure but ...
  3. I wondered where I'd seen the white stuff before ... Google "Japanese live action tentacle" (for grown-ups only)
  4. This one may be better for the cable sizes we are interested in.
  5. You may not need quite so much ????
  6. The "proper stuff" would be cable-pulling lubricant, if you can find it. Talc won't hurt the cables but I'm not sure how effective it will be. An assistant pushing from the other end helps a lot to take the tension off when there are bends to negotiate.

  8. The oldies are the best ... Three men died on Christmas Eve and were met by Saint Peter at the pearly gates. "In honour of this holy season" Saint Peter said, "You must each possess something that symbolises Christmas to get into heaven". The Englishman fumbled through his pockets and pulled out a lighter. He flicked it on. "It's a candle, he said. "You may pass through the pearly gates" Saint Peter said. The Scotsman reached into his pocket and pulled out a set of keys. He shook them and said, "They're bells." Saint Peter said "You may pass through the pearly gates". The Irishman started searching desperately through his pockets and finally pulled out a pair of women's panties. St. Peter looked at the man with a raised eyebrow and asked, "And just what do those symbolize?' The paddy replied, "These are Carols." And So The Christmas Season Begins......
  9. Ouch. How old were the panels? Big name manufacturer?
  10. Modified the thread title for clarity.
  11. Yeah ^^^, low-frequency inverters do tend to be more robust when it comes to overloads etc. Sadly they also tend to be rather more expensive than their high-frequency "transformerless" cousins. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/inverter-hybrid-off-grid-psmart-3kw-24v-toroid-mppt60a-i2273814730-s7639523207.html
  12. It is my intention to live forever. So far, so good The Big-C got my father (smoking) and both my uncles (mum's brothers). Mum is 90 this year ????
  13. Seen on a motoring forum:- What do you do if you get rear-ended? If you know it is coming? Lube. If you don't? Preparation H.
  14. Already a running topic. Let's continue there. RIP Darren
  15. Yeah, neem is what Madam uses although she adds some of the local tobacco to the "tea" she sprays on the trees (nobody in their right mind would actually smoke the stuff).
  16. To be honest, this worries me, although I have completed my business with them. I had a mate killed in the Phuket One-2-Die crash, his business just vanished and his wife had to go into hiding from his somewhat miffed clients (she knew nothing about the business). RIP Darren, you did the job for me no problems.
