Balcony collapses at Chiang Mai resort injuring 13
Crossy replied to webfact's topic in Chiang Mai News
Saw this on the TV last evening, they had circled images of the (lack of) re-bar tie-in between the balcony slab and the main building. The video showed the whole lot, with people on board, just dropping like a lift!! Luckily it wasn't higher up ... EDIT Re-bar? We don't need no silly re-bar!! -
Yup, no aluminium underground (for domestic and light-industrial). PEA / MEA can, of course, use what they like underground

METV effectively rescinded at Don Mueang
Crossy replied to Orient Express's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The problem is that many of our members would like to see the actual message placed in your passport. They are an untrusting lot. -

Please post a photo of this note, they don't always (ok, rarely) say what the officer tells you they do, obviously remove any identifying data. -

Whenever Rabbi Lieberman was going to marry two people, it was his custom to invite them into his study right before the wedding to give some last-minute spiritual advice. The young couple, Sam and Sadie, enter his study: Rabbi: I always like to give a young couple some advice. But you two look so happy that instead, I’m going to ask each of you why you’re so happy, so maybe I can pass the knowledge along. First, so that Sam can be honest, Sadie, please step out of the room. She does. Rabbi: So, Sam, tell me. Why are you so happy? Sam: Well, Rabbi, I’m a little embarrassed to tell you, but . . . well . . last night, I got the greatest blow job of my life, and now I’m marrying her! How can I not be ecstatic? Rabbi: This I understand. So please ask Sadie to come in alone. He does so, and she enters. Rabbi: So, Sadie, why are you so happy? Sadie: Well Rabbi, how can I not be happy? Yesterday night I gave the last blowjob I’ll have to give for the rest of my life!

Somewhat simplistically. The W (Watts) of the motor are effectively horsepower (1hp = 750W). More watts = more oomph (but greater battery consumption). The A (really Ah or Amp-hours) is the capacity of the battery. You really need to consider it as watt-hours, you get watt-hours by multiplying Ah by the battery voltage. Very simply, dividing watt-hours by motor power gives you operating time. So, say a 60V 20Ah pack (about 1,200Wh) would run a 600W motor for about 2 hours. There are masses of variables that will affect actual operating time / range. But generally, more watts are more performance, more Ah is more range.

Lazada (yes, again) - returns page on PC not working - just me??

I'm a Brit, so these are UK interpretations "Rabid" is an animal with rabies (foaming at the mouth, hydrophobia, erratic behaviour). "Commie" - communist, anyone whose politics is to the left of the US (pretty much the whole known universe). -
Why does a chap called Don O' Treply keep emailing me? He seems to work for a lot of different companies. Example: -

Just up the road in Pathum-Thani they want a new one each year. No hassle, just do the form when we do our marriage extension. They also want a home visit each year too.

Mum will need to do a TM30 (correct designation?) saying you live at that address just like a landlord would. Madam has to do one each year for our local immigration office.

Lazada Wallet Help

Pink actually, but yes I do, doesn't everybody? -
Please identify (1,2,3,4,5 - lots of legs))
Crossy replied to BenStark's topic in Plants, Pets & Vets in Thailand
Rather less helpful than usual, but the general opinion is they won't harm you or your grass. Sweep them up and out (or use Raid on them), the local wildlife will munch up the vast majority of the beasties. -

Update on the OP - The PC "Returns" page has returned AND I used the refund value in my wallet to buy an item via the PC page. -

Crossy replied to Crossy's topic in General Topics
Another "Returns" hiccup, this one is in your favour. See the screenshot: - Return submitted at 16:57 on Feb 1st. Seller has 3 days to respond. My grammar school maths says that 3 days from the 1st is the 4th But Lazada says that the seller has 10 hours remaining, today Feb 3rd. ** At 16:58 today I expect to become the proud owner of 5 BC547 NPN small-signal transistors and 2 faulty gate remote controls (that can join the 3 faulty ones from my last refund). ** Evidently the person who defined this is a former immigration officer. -

At 1cm a piece I think you might need rather a lot! My Korean ex loved "bundaegi" (steamed silkworm larvae), they smelled awful when cooking and tasted worse!! She would munch a pot of them and then want to smooch!! Did I mention she's my ex?? -

Yeah, I reckon he's a Yellow Dragon too, let's see what the group says. I've asked about eco-friendly control measures too (they really don't like cans of Raid!).
