  1. my wife has a problem in that she plucks white hairs from her head just about every night leaving bald patches and has taken to doing comb/brush overs to hide it, apart from that she has fairly thick hair but says she can "feel" the white hair, dont know if this is a thai thing but she has been doing it for many years, she is in her 50's.
  2. then you would know that Israel claim to the land predates Palestine by 1000 years but dont let the truth get in the way of your "opinion", anyone that reads & understands history knows the truth of the matter but then again some ignore the truth to push their own biased BS to suit their agenda
  3. so why are they using the schools and hospitals as their bases and supply areas if they dont want "their" people injured, they use their own people and hostages because they lack intestinal fortitude, why should they be injured when they can use innocents to take the bullets for them. There are a lot of empty buildings etc they could use to attack the idf but they instead go to the heavily populated areas instead, they are pathetic cowards and deserve everything they get
  4. when we built our new house the pea pole was placed outside our fenceline on the road side with the meter then the pea had to place a pole near our house and set the power line to it as well, our electrician then wired everything from that pole, we had to pay the pea extra for them to do this as well as for the poles to our land. If your house is wired from the opposite side of the road to a pole near your house then it is more than likely the pea were the ones that ran the wires to it before the electricians ran wires to your house, in this case it should be a pea problem if they did wire to the pole in front of your house from the other side of the road, doesnt matter where the meter is as they are the ones that did the wiring that is leaking.
  5. big difference between Israel and the terrorists is that idf isnt hiding behind the civillian population while attacking anyone, these terrorists are basically cowards, they try to avoid being injured/killed by attacking unarmed civillians then proclaiming how great they are to kill children, women and old people. The when the idf goes after them they hide behind non combatants while shooting at the idf, then they claim the idf is killing the civillians that they are using as shields when returning fire, maybe if these gutless terrorists actually fought without using their own people as shields there would be a lot less deaths but they refuse to do so, instead they use schools & hospitals as their bases, the money sent by the rest of the world that is supposed to be used for their people is instead used to make their tunnels and buy weapons. The land has always been Israels for centuries as well so trying to claim it as theirs has been showe time & again as being total BS. The problem is based on their own religious beliefs that promotes exactly what they are doing, raping and killing, while I may not like the idea of so many dying it falls directly at the terrorists feet, if they were "real" men they would not be acting as cowardly as they are, these people are beneath contempt and I hope hamas is totally destroyed along with the other muslim terrorsit groups that use any possible reason to rape and kill so they can get their jollies and show everyone how big they think their appendage is, "look mum & dad, I killed these unarmed women & children after rapiong them, arent I great"
  6. all this does is show the dems against the republicans, they both hate each other and stick to their own agendas and rhetoric, neither side is prepared to admit defeat or tell the truth. Before covid hit the US was in a good position going by all the figures showing high employment, low cost of living, food, petrol etc, illegal immigration being controlled and world wars declining, trump was running his mouth but there were good things happening that were verified by many countries around the world apart from democrat voters but then covid hit and everything went to sh*t everywhere in the world. Then there was biden, dems were happy to be rid of trump but things did not improve, illegal immigratin sky rocketed, woke policies were instituted, cost of living started increasing, wars increased, parents started losing their rights over their own children and were even hounded by the fbi but dems were happy, as a non US citizen it was apparent that even though trump had a big mouth he did do some good things, biden on the other hand didnt do much at all except appease dem voters but then I am not a rusted on voter for either party, to me it appears that there is no neutral people in the US and this can be seen with the court problems facing trump, they are politically motivated(this is based on neutral reporting and facts) and the judges are using their personal preferences for either party to reach decisions while ignoring/blocking facts & the actual law, the old justice is blind has become a thing of the past and it is now justice goes to the party running the case. The US has become a total joke with regards to politics, it is now a matter of either dems and republicans getting their own political views pushed and to hell with the "people" if they dont agree, doesnt matter who wins it will always remain a sh*t fight due to the combatant voters & their parties that refuse to accept the truth and that everyone has a right to their own opinion & vote for their preferred party without being denegrated by the opposition.
  7. in my younger days I smoked(weed plus oil) and ate cookies along with a few other things, gave it away by choice but did use cookies to help me get off the final amount of opoids I was on for many years due to pain(used to help a friend trim his plants as I like the smell, was very fruity & he supplied the trim to make the cookies), I am also aware of many friends that continued to use it, some a lot more than others, several have ended up with definite "mental" problems from heavy over use, a lot more are also extremely paranoid and cannot accept that they have problems due to its use but as it is self induced and they dont harm others just themselves it remains up to them so I dont condemn them, people want to use weed there is nothing anyone can do especially when it is legal. Claiming it does nothing or no harm is a whole different kettle of worms, same as alcoholics that claim drinking doesnt harm them, have to admit I have seen it do good for some people with certain health conditions if used as prescribed but anyone using it regularly will have some side effects from it, its just that they refuse to accept the truth and again that is entirely up to them, its those around them that dont use that see what it actually does to them so go for it guys, eventually its effects will become evident in some way
  8. around the top of internal walls where they meet the grprock/dry wall ceilings you will generally get cracks appear because the plaster mix they use to fill the gap between the wall and ceiling dries hard so will naturally crack with heat expansion. Also as most of the ones that do the filling overlap down the wall a bit the cracks can be slightly lower than the actual corners in places, using an acrylic filler with these cracks is better as it can expand & contract where the hard plaster cannot, remove this overlap plaster by running the edge of a blade in the corner all the way along the wall/ceiling join then fill with an acrylic filler.
  9. I have lost 2 frozen deliveries, one was just left on top of my gate post in the middle of the day, no call or anything and we were away from the house, by the time we got home it was thawed. The other took them 5 days to deliver(they had sent it to a totaly different area and it sat there for a couple of days) and when it arrived it was in the back of a normal delivery truck, appears the companies/drivers just do what ever they please
  10. we have had the same many times, drivers dont want to go out of their way, finish early or just can be bothered appears to be the problem with most, some have even put up the same excuse for a couple of days or say no one at home when delivery attempted, no one can get near our house without our dogs going ballistic plus my office faces the gate so it is pure lies. Then there is the "we delivered" when they havent, flash have been the worst for us, they have no problms making up BS reasons and they also rarely phone as they are supposed to to let you know they are on the way, most do as they please and screw the customers
  11. I have been chasing star pickets for over 10 years in Thailand, the best way to get them I have found is to have them imported from Australia as I am unable to find any thai suppliers, I want them for fencing as well as to support trees so a couple of different heights are required. I have found a business that will import them (Bunnasia) as well as a supplier in Australia but it does run up costs, a thai supplier would be better if I could find one and a star picket driver is necessary.
  12. Actually they are an Australian invention, they were originally made in Melbourne Victoria to suit aussie tastes, very different to dim sum
  13. They only dropped the price 95 baht to 1115 baht, 315 baht more than 2 months ago and only after I had a go at them.
  14. Two months ago I bought frozen dim sims(an aussie favourite) at 800 baht( around$34) for 30, they sold out in just a couple of days, yesterday I got an email from the importer saying they had another shipment coming in shortly and we can pre order to make sure we get what we want so I went in to do so. Problem is they have upped the price almost 60% in the last 2 months with the same bags now costing 1250 baht(around $54), they have not had a price rise in Australia, in Australia they currently cost $9.50 from their supplier(Coles, a couple of dollars more from other sellers) so even paying $34 last time was high but to raise the current price to just over $54 for them is a real stretch. I realize that for someone to import frozen food from Australia it does require them to raise prices but to raise them so much in just 2 months is very suspect especially knowing that aussie expats will try to get their favourite food and pay a bit more for it to do so. I have been using this business for around 12 months and liked what they did but after this I will no longer support them, I understand the required profit margins needed to import but to push them up this much in 2 months is way over the top
  15. have been hit on the head a few times over the years, you can either watch your feet so you dont go down open drains or fall over over broken/missing sections or watch out for head high signs and I am under 6' tall so they are low. The fact that footpaths are not taken care of or maintained doesnt help at all nor does the fact they make signage way too low as well as the low hanging wires but doing everything as cheap as possible to make more profit is the real fault as those in charge are more concerned with how much they can pocket by ignoring repairs etc like many other people in Thailand, money is more important than the people.
  16. here we go, another russia collusion pushed by a left leaning publication, how dare hotels and buildings accept people paying to stay in/use their facilities, shows how pathetic the dems are trying to make this out as anythng more than the normal business of these buildings(that was ongoing prior to his election) especially when biden & his family have been actually shown to have taken a hell of a lot more for access to biden himself. No surprise this garbage was allowed in here when it is pushed by the dems and their pathetic supporters that are all sh*t scared trump will be the next president, all the crap they are desperately throwing at him is falling down around them. I find US politics one huge laugh as the ones bitching lack the inteliigence to research the truth in most matters and only accept the innuendo from their biased propaganderist news sites/publications, hahahahahahaha, I have had one rusted on dem trying to say that 5 cops were killed during jan 6, they refuse to believe the truth, only what they have been told by other leftist idiots
  17. the problem lies with Australia post, they do not track the package once it arrives in Australia, I send packages there a few times a year and the tracking stops once they leave Suvarnabhumi airport. In Australia the post offices rarely help when you try to find out where they are, I have had them tell the person it has not left Thailand but was delivered the next day, had packages sit in the PO for several weeks, had them moved between several different PO's etc, aussie post has become pathetic and you can only find the package if you are able to get someone in aussie post to actually enter the tracking number and tell you where it it, the problem is solely aussie post as they do not enter the tracking when they arrive in the country, it is a money saver for them to not honour trackng from other countries
  18. I was hit and floored from behind while walking through a market, these idiots dont care, they ride fast where ever they go and have no regard for anyone else, the idiot just kept going and even sped up so he couldnt be caught/blamed
  19. This has been ruled out several times already so really have to wonder which thais are looking at investing in it if it is given the go ahead and just how close they are to the pm & thaksin plus who is the one behind it all, these politicians cannot be trusted to do anything unless there is something in it for them
  20. yes, Bangkok Bank, still waiting for a reply to my email to them as to what is going on
  21. started happening to me also but only a few days before I was able to order and pay Lazada with the same card. My card is still working everywhere else just not Lazada so it is obviously a problem with Lazada as I tried buying from 2 different sellers and both failed, had to cancel both, have contacted the bank and waiting for a reply as to why my card is no longer able to work with Lazada but do not expect a reply anytime soon. Will have to try another way to buy as it is treats I get for our dogs and a great quality that the dogs really like.
  22. we were almost in accidents with motorbikes twice yesterday, both times it was an idiot rider that didnt bother to look and almost smashed into us, thing is it happens virtually everytime we are on the road. Unfortunately many thais switch off their thinking when they get in a car or on a bike, for some reason bike riders (and some car drivers) seem to think they can do as they please and road regulations etc do not apply to them, they can go through red lights, turn across the front of you when you are going straight ahead, come around corners without looking, pull out onto the road without checking and allowing young kids to ride bikes and of course ignore stop signs/lines, thai thinking leaves a lot to be desired as does their abilities on ther road
  23. just goes to show the shins think they are above everyone and can do as they please, it really allows the world to see how pathetic the current thai govt is as well as the thai people when they do nothing about this farce
  24. last thing china wants is the truth getting out into the public domain, they do everything through threats as its all they are capable of. The world really needs to stand up to china and tell them where to go and what they can do with their threats everytime something doesnt go their way or exposes the truth about them.
  25. this is very informative and actually helps with another problem of a neighbour near our other block that built their land up around 50cm higher from being lower and now floods our land everytime it rains(slowly killing our plumeria/frangipani), by these regs is appears they have to rectify he problem, these regs also appear to show that the over hanging trees can be cut back, Thanks everyone for your replies it is greatly appreciated, have attached a pic to show what I mean, this is right along a 40 metre fence line as well as palm oil tree fronds along a 40 metre fencline on another block and overhaning several metres as well that drop and break the branches off our trees.
