Construction still going on in UK too at the moment but government says the builders should all follow the self-distancing rule, what a laugh, that's like telling a chimpanzee not to pick it's nose. 

Yep only one trade allowed in a plot at a time.

What would the cost be to get a large tank added to your property where it could be filled up and locked, so thieves would not steal the fuel....I know growing up on a farm we had a tank and the cost to fill our vehicles was cheaper to fill it from our own tank then go to town and fill the truck from the gas station....

Hope that farm wasnt in the uk.

Diesel for farms and building sites was coloured red to signify there was no tax being paid.

If you got caught putting that into the Merc you would end up in prison

Have you missed some zeros off here? I can fill motorcycle for 60 Baht! ????

 

You can aswell, great!

A Yammy nouvo has not cost over 100bt to fill in the last 10yrs

No one at the pumps because the minimum 50bt now fills the tank so thry dont need to come back for a week.

Now with everyone at home no one needs to go back to the pumps for a month.

I filled mine for 60bt from empty. 500bt in the car got me 3/4 full instead of 1/2 full.

Happy days

Not being flippant but desperate times now for many people and they will start taking risks just to survive.

Which of course is how prostitution began.

I found this, this is what everyone needs

I dont think you need cover.

The point is that pretty much all international airlines are now no longer issuing boarding passes unless the passenger can present a medical certificate to confirm you are not a liability firstly for the airline, secondly for the country.

I am of course like everyone else, an armchair expert that knows knack all.

You really need to be starting with your airline, before thry stop flying altogether.

As I suggested.

I didnt suggest it, but I was going to!

To add, this place is called Montree.

They still have repair and maintenance shops on the roadside but at the back where they had several repair areas has now been emptied for some reason.

For mastic tubes and the like, i tend to push a 2" flat head nail into the nozzle or a small screw .It stops it drying out inparticularly the end.

Very important with silicone. Pulled a wobbly cone of silicone out many times.

I do have a proprietory nozzle cap that you screw on, despite no thread. But I find they are not good really.

Wet glue like Elmers goes into a plastic bag, wrapped up, has worked ok but i suppose it all depends how long you dont use it for

Crappy internet connections, scaling down business operation.

Surely something is better than nothing.?

I say well done for schools looking at the positive and trying. Far too many people just giving up, and complaining that thry cant continue instead of using their heads to try different options.

I was at Central Festival today and saw this:  1) One couple had 48 rolls of toilet paper and two bags of rice along with some usual grocery items.  2) A woman had a shopping cart full of infant formula.  The checkout lines were a little bit longer but it was not like a panic shopping.  All the shelves were fully stocked.  

wow, unbelievable, I buy one pack of bog rolls every month for our business....it has 48 rolls in it.

all bog rolls come in packs of 24,36,48

My 15 year old Wave has been restored to its former glory. ----

 

And it only took you 2 months..............

And after all the suggestions of where to go, he didnt even tell us where he went.

I dont care anyway, I ride a Yamaha

I just dont understand the fear. Are you afraid to die or afraid of the unknown.

Just reading the stories of different individuals who have been through it, the overall impression is...

you experience a tightening/shortage of breath, a fever but no where near as bad as typical flu and bronchitus, and you suffer for 3 days. Apparently waiting for 3 negative tests takes longer than the symptoms.

Too expensive for me ........ steel is sold everywhere and welders are cheap.

4m lengths of aluminium c line are 20bt, all suspended ceilings are made from this. Tin snips and screws to make a strong frame.

can upgrade to c line studs, more robust, again easy job and cheap.

I notice the expedience of the moat dredging and structural repairs over the last two months is now down to a dribble, as I saw no-one there today.

They have obviously been told not to bust a gut.....not like like they would have anyway.

Yeah it's fake stuff but can't figure out if it has a outer layer or not. 

 

I tried to manually polish with a delicate cutting compound for cars but it didn't work. 

Most of the damage is heat damage.

By contrast, I've just had some great financial news.
