Is there less talent around in the present day?   Maybe

Is there more talentless drivel around?                Without a shadow of doubt

I think as in most things, the sheer amount of content available is always going to dilute the real talent so it is always going to appear the bar has been lowered

I used to live in Thailand before so I have a local bank account there under my name. Thanks

Which bank?

I have Kasikorn account which allows me to buys shares on SET online through K-Cyber. Had to go into a branch to set it up though.(filling and signing forms etc) So if you are planning a trip any time soon, perhaps you could do that

Re-entered Thailand yesterday from Dubai. Immigration asked for my Thailand Pass , nothing else. Entered no problem.

I entered Thailand from Dubai about two weeks  ago and they wanted to see hard copies of everything , Thai Pass, vax cert, hotel booking, insurance and Boarding card!  twice before even getting to immigration.

So maybe they removing the pointless additional checks we went through but i would have hard copies of everything just in case it reverts to type

thanks guys

yes, just the two wires.

just wanting something cheap and quick to deliver for quick fix as i have to head back to colder climes again next week and could be a few months again before i return

i was given no instructions on where to send results, so did test and took photo of negative result with my phone, just in case anyone requires to see it!

ok, so have a question for the electrical experts,  on one of my Souer GTIs, the cooling fans are u/s. 

Specs   Manufacture     Poweryear.

             Type                  DC    Brushless fan.     

             Rating               Dc 24V   0.18A

After looking online, the closest i can find  are  0.15A  or 0.2A,  will either of these be compatible, if so which would be preferable, or is it vital to find 0.18A fans

TIA

For attachments I read that PDFs aren't possible and they need to be converted to Jpeg.  That is fine but I have some screenshots as PNGs.  Can they be uploaded or once again do I need them to be JPG also?

PNGs are allowed

1) The UK issued NHS Covid Pass of vaccination does not have a passport number or nationality stated so wonder if they will accept that

very interested to know the answer to this also, hoping to get back on the 11th

I will absolutely second Glenmorangie as it is the best by a country mile. Good luck to everyone and I could only afford ‘one bottle per day per man perhaps’????????????????????????????

Agree. Definately my favourite

You dont really  "apply" for a PLF. you just fill it in on;ine. It has to be done no more than 48 hours before and you need to have booked your PCR test(s) in the UK already as one of the questions is the booking code for these .At the end, upon completion, it will give you the option to download/print/save etc, there was no waiting for a reply.

The UK side accepts the information on a phone but some airlines want a paper copy as they check the info at check-in. They also required a copy of the receipt for UK PCR booking

This was with Thai Airways

i got one, fine for small jobs. Used mainly as a power screwdriver but have used it for drilling holes. small and light so good for them jobs up a ladder etc.

i was surprised how well it performed considering the price

It might be different now, but I suspect that UK authorities are far too busy to care what individuals do.  Unlike Thailand, thy appeared o have faith that people would obey the rules, and left it to that

It certainly is different now, was for me anyway.

I returned last month and received a phone call every day of the ten of self isolation

If the water is fairly static around the ship, they could also dump heavy brine around it and float it out that way.

Just a novel idea.

With MARPOL regulations it would take so long to get paperwork, it would be quicker to dig it out with a teaspoon 

Well im still here at the moment, will probably be heading for work in a week or two.

So we have had 6 x 360w panels producing for seven months now for a total of 1360kwh

At approx average of 4.5 baht thats  6,120bht saved on bills so far for an average of 874bht / month

With total outlay  around 31000, thats still keeping me on track for R.O.I of less than 3 years so very happy with the project.

So anyone considering their own project, i would say it is well worth the time and money especially with the efficiency of panels getting better vs cost

OK so you are saying its up to the people of Scotland to decide but you want to stipulate what the timescale should be.

Tut tut tut, . Again, i do not want to stipulate anything, you do understand the difference between offering an opinion on what i think would be the preferable route and stipulting demands?. i think you either have a huge chip on your shoulder or severe lack of reading skills.

So a Remainer who has joined ranks with all the Brexiteers on here in order to frustrate Scottish independence and Scotland rejoining the EU? Sounds odd.

I haven't joined any ranks and am certainly not trying to frustrate anything, please show me where/how/when i have done this

You continually avoid the point I am making. Is Scotland an equal partner in the UK with its larger partner England? Yes or no will do

No avoiding, you added this question half way through as deflection from the initial point, When you have addressed that point, then maybe i will join in a conversation about that, or maybe not, It has no relevence to your initial post
