  1. Was known as John "Couger" Mellencamp, Google him lots on they not my cup of tea, never really made it in the UK . Not head of him for a lot of Yeras, must down to his last million, trying for a comeback.
  2. Pigeon Pea to me, is a valuable cattle feed, makes good hay/silage, growing time from seed to harvest is about 3-4 months, or 90-120 days, same time as corn/maize. Best grown in July/August, time when they should be some rain, and a bit cooler. But remember, it is a legume, and the Aphids will attack the crop, that could have been your problem.
  3. As has been said that is a lot of money for a 7.3 km stretch ,is that a typo??? AI again.
  4. In a nutshell not good, I would say the Charolais cattle, the owners will not budge on price, which they what, but above market price, because they are Ch cattle, so they are keeping them, they probably brought them when the price was higher, but it is a catch 22 situation, they are keeping them, but they are still feeding them hoping the price will go up, odds of them making any thing are not high. We have a Ch x bull about 11 moths old I would want 20k for him, I think we would that, he is no problem so we will keep him for another few months. Beef cattle prices are going hand in hand with dairy cow's prices market still not good, dairy farmers are still giving up same problem expensive feed and debt levels. I cannot see the prices going up for a while, it has done this before prices drop then increase, but this time they seem set on a low price for some time to come.
  5. Not easy to find, try patipong.com, they have a lot of chippers.
  6. I use these blades, a lot better than the OP's being serrated do not need sharpening very often, I just touch them up with the angle grinder. These come from my local weekly market, guy sells all thing strimmer's and chainsaws. One other place is out local builders' merchants they now sell all thing strimmer's. They will cut though most things, one set is about 120bart.
  7. I did my retirement visa, plus 90day in and out 40 minuets, no agent, I aways do it myself. Back to the OP, easy solution as has been said, every time I go through immigration, they are at least 30 % of the desks empty, get more staff in .
  8. They is an APP, it is on Google Play ,try it if it works let us know.
  9. It will probably end up being sold off cheap, to Thailand's big livestock feed companies ground down and put in livestock feed.
  10. It takes me 5 minuets to pay my bill at our PE office, it is on one of my regular routes, I think your 180 minutes is ......way OTT.
  11. Thanks for all of the replies, lots of info they. I agree, Wat Sado not cheap, that was basically my starting point. A 2hp brushless DC motor/pump, a good idea, where to buy one, preferably one that does not have made in China stamped on it.
  12. Hi All. The project, we have a large pond on our property, we use it mainly for watering the garden, and we rear some fish, vie an electric pump this time of year with usage and evaporation the level drops quickly. At the back of land is a small river distance about 220 meters, the idea is to use a sola pump to pump the water from the river to our pond. By using a trailer mounted unit, similar to the photo, but a lot smaller, say going out in the morning and coming home in the evening. I aim to use a 2HP pump, with a 2-inch outlet, looking at Google it will need 1600 Wats to power the pump, our local Thai Wat Sado has all the stuff they have 400-Watt panels, inverters, and pumps. The questions are, using a DC pump, you should not need an inverter?? Wat Sado has one a 2HP DC pump 13 000 baht, as far as I can see you should not need a battery, but the guy in Wat Sado said you do, do you? As I said our pump we use in the garden, I brought 10years ago ,it is a Mr. Eco ,Italian made pump ,one of the best you can get ,we had it 18 months brought it out at the new year ,would not start ,took it to our local electric motor guy ,who had to rewind the motor, I said it is an Italian pump, he said no, a Chines copy ,it had aluminum windings ,not copper ,he rewound it with copper ,now no problems. The 2HP DC pump I was looking at was made in China, thinking will it last?13k for a 2HP DC pump, so I thought buy a good quality AC pump and use an inverter? Google said you need 1600 Watt to power the pump, but I have read on start up an electric motor needs more power, just to turn the motor over, once it is going then it will use its 1600 Watt's, if so. would you need say an extra panel, for start-up. Thanks.
  13. Written by AI ,call it being picky, but a sack of rice in one of these warehouses weighs 90 kg not 50 kg, again I am having my doubts about AI.
  14. Tell the tourists to go to the shops down a Soi 2-300 yards from their hotel they can buy alcohol at any time.
  15. For a lot of people selling lottory tickets is a nice easy job, sitting in front of a bank all day, or whatever looking at their phone most of the time, time they got a proper job. It will be the blind and handicaped sellers, a lot who cannot do anything else, will suffer, they should be made a special case and allowed to carry on selling they tickets, a lot of people will still by a paper ticket as they do not have a phone or do not know how the system works.
