Gentlemen, Thank you kindly for the lively input! @blaze master @Centigrade32 @bamnutsak A few related points: I do also wonder about these figures. I have been extensively testing WA1 and ST1. A well-known Phuket based seller advertises their Tanaosri WA1 as containing 18% THC! That's quite a difference. Based on my long term experiments with this strain and comparing it to other strains, 8% sounds rather low for the hit it consistently seems to produce. Yes, that's my number one choice! I'm currently exploring alternatives to CA, in case this strain becomes harder to find. (At the moment, WA1 for example appears much harder to find in contrast to a year ago). Any recommendation for sellers who have a good deal for Charlotte's Angel or similar strains?

Can anyone recommend a good seller for getting Tanaosri Kan Daeng (RD1) flowers? There was a lot talk about the four Thai strains in the local media some time ago, but this particular CBD heavy strain seems to be rare in the shops. Has anyone ever seen or even tried RD1?

Sublingual administration of infused MCT carrier. Onset approximately 30 mins.

Thanks for the detailed explanations. I guess, the errors might be just a false positive. Several lights come on (see pictures) when the Toyota technician reset the system there supposedly no errors. But I'll ask again this time to make sure nothing else is faulty.

I guess you were still within the ten year warranty for the battery.

I have a ten year old non plug-in hybrid car (Toyota Camry) and had no problems over the last ten years driving it. But now the hybrid battery seems to have given up and some functionality is disabled at software level (i.e. engine monitoring and cruise control!) I went to a Toyota service garage and got the car inspected. They quoted 80,000 baht for a battery replacement. I asked them to reset the electronics which they eventfully did. But they couldn't explain why engine monitoring and cruise control got disabled. I was told that they don't understand this and most people sell their car after six years... After driving for another two month (after they had reset the electronics and put the battery online again) the same has happened again and the battery is now off-line, while engine monitoring and cruise control is disabled again. Two major points that I want to clarify: What to expect, if I do go for a battery replacement? What to expect, if I get an "off-label" manipulation of the electronics and have the battery entirely remove, thereby in effect have a normal petrol car? I am not looking for a general discussion if hybrids are good or bad. I would like to explore my options before I eventually buy a new car in the future.

I'm trying to understand how much scope there is for an ombudsman-like complaint in terms of the BoT's regulatory function. Any practical how-to advice would be even better.

Thanks @Gottfrid What would this forum be without you?

How easy is a for a customer to make a formal complaint against a Thai bank? It's about fraudulent transactions on a credit card and the issuing bank's lack of support. It's only a small amount but it appears the bank acts in rather deceptive ways by trying the customer to foot the bill, despite being notified within minutes of the obvious fraud. Any idea or experience, anyone?

The good news my friends --as I've only paid for material up front-- they are coming back to complete the job!

My knowledge of welding is having watched a few YouTube videos 'For entertainment purposes only'. 😆 Why would a continuous weld be not good here?

Presumably it is stainless. The gate frame is 304. No idea if they used the correct filler.

Thanks SamuiGrower for your very informative reply! I think I've learned something here.

Could some metal worker/ welder please advise me? I had an old sliding gate replaced with a new one. The company suggested to weld a new bottom rail on top of the old rail, which I thought was a reasonable idea. However I assumed they would do a continuous seam, welding these two rails together and not just tack them. The top of the new rail is now slightly more than one inch (2.54 cm) above floor level and the tacks in the centre are about 30 cm apart and at side about 5 cm apart. Most tacks appear to be done from either one or the other side. Will this be sufficiently durable for a modern car to drive over it twice a day? Pictures below for further details of the fabrication.

Thanks Hugo for the suggestion. This is actually for CBD oil drops and CBD skin ointments. It would be useful to have some rough estimate of the potency of the remedy.

Oh, really. Why will all terpenes be lost? Would decarbing the final oil rather than the botanicals make a differences?

Thanks @SamuiGrower that's very helpful! What kind of potential loss could the following process setup have? Open system: 1. Prosumer decarboxylator for botanicals (programmed time/ temp with preheating/ cooling down phases; bottom and side heating elements) -> 2. Weighing of decarbed botanicals -> 3. Cold(ish) ethanol extraction -> 4. Beaker evaporation -> 4. Magnetic stir plate for MCT rebound.

Excellent post @SamuiGrower ! Would you know the loss rate for CBDa to CBD conversion?

I doubt that! If you carefully study the logo of the Red Hand Commando, you will discover the motto is even written in Irish.

Just to add some context: The Shankill Butchers were widely seen as the Loony Bin fraction of the Ulster Volunteer Force (the UVF itself is proscribed terrorist organisation the UK). Apparently in a BBC documentary this guy said that the Shankill Butchers were a 'decent bunch of lads'....

Yes Prime Minister - Sir Humphrey shows...

You mean backhanders?
