  1. For not much more, a driver with it. But, no guarantee not drunk!
  2. For 700baht one can hire a decent car for a day, hereabouts. Not sure about Phuket, but doubt it is much more.
  3. The problem with these heaters is the ambient inlet water temperature. In winter, cold water, you need a lot of power to get it up to a comfortable temperature. Mid-seasons, warmer inlet water, output too hot so you mix cold at the shower. Hot season, like now, inlet water warm, output far too hot, so you mix cold at fhe shower, reducing the flow through the heater ("the slower the flow the hotter the water") and it overheats and trips.....for your protection! As said elsewhere, yes, open it up....but not until you have isolated the power! The reset will be a tiny grey button on a 4-pronged thingy on the heater element. DO NOT TOUCH ANYTHING WITH YOUR FINGERS,use an insulated screwdriver to click the reset, replace the cover, then switch the power back on. Reduce the power setting until the hot season is over.
  4. another factor to consider, possibly not relevant here as so far from the sea, is that the body is much more bouyant in salt water than in fresh. Maybe he thought he was a good swimmer in the sea....
  5. 3 Is not a motorway. I am not sure if m/cs are allowed on tollway sections of non-motorways?
  6. This is a scam. A super-freighter knocked it down last week. But I'll offer you 1000baht for the scrap, delivered to my yard.
  7. You insult an enormous population of innocent,law abiding, god-fearing, Bhudda reveering, bananas..
  8. In what way is his age relevant? He may be one of many things, most of which may be defamatory, but hardly geriatric by definition.
  9. Who? In other news, Fred and Nong went to the market and bought some mangoes.
  10. Is it possible the driver was a policeman.........................?
  11. I have seen it a lot recently. An invitation to decapitation!
  12. It is 17 years since SWMBO and I moved here permanently. We shipped two 20' containers. Removal Companies quoted £7000 each for packing and shipping. We packed them ourselves, with help from friends..it took a week to do it. Final cost? £700 each, no insurance. They arrived safely, nothing missing or broken, and minimal duties because of a comprehensive and carefully crafted packing list. When customs opened them up to look, they were so crammed full that they immediately banged the doors shut and cleared them!
  13. So do Cafe Amazon, Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, and all the other outlets of that nature..... usually.
  14. The British gave up on Afghanistan long ago, as did the Russians, the Americans, and the UN, not necessarily once or in that order. A complete reboot is necessary, but will never happen. Too much money to be made supplying weapons.
  15. Not all Israelis are Jews, not all Jews are Israeli. I have many Jewish friends and aquaintances, mostly very nice people. I have had a few encounters with Israelis, mostly not very nice people. So far as Gaza, and the greater Middle East problems, are concerned:- a plague on all your houses, you are all as bad as each other...... and all over your imaginary friend and his so-called prophets.
  16. Use Duck Duck Go browser. Goodbye pop-ups.
