  1. I know this isn't good enough housing for asylum seekers, but how about offering it to homeless Brit citizens or returning homeless expats?
  2. We're living in Thailand, my 5.5kw system cost 100kbht (2,300GBP). You're living in the UK, your 4kw system cost 11,600GBP. I'm not surprised Solar isn't worthwhile in the UK, it rains all the time, and equipment is expensive. In Thailand it's sunny all the time, and equipment is cheap, so far this year only last week was wet and overcast.
  3. Crash and burn Vs parked and burn. How many parked ICE cars have spontaneously combusted? Greens never want to compare like with like, and you will never get a straight answer only deflections and bare face lies.
  4. Thais are even ignorant about their own religion.
  5. Only use air-con when it's over 30c at night. We normally sleep with all windows open and a fan blowing to keep mozzies from landing. This year has been unusually cold, so maybe 4 nights in total.
  6. I paid around 100k for 9 x340w panels, 5k5w inverter and 6kwhr battery. This provides 80% of the electricity for my 3 bed house. Air-con, shower heaters and cooker are connected to the grid. Everything else runs on the inverter. You don't need to plan for high wattage low use devices to run off the solar. My monthly PEA bills are under 200bht.
  7. Answer: "and you're ugly for not being able to get a multi-millionaire."
  8. You've got one, but you're not happy with her ..............
  9. None of them were educated in the west, and Thailand only offers peasant education. Therefore my wife, daughter and son are all poorly educated. Even the wealthy Thais educated in western countries seem to prefer cheating rather than learning.
  10. ALL Thais are uneducated peasants IMHO, I choose not to mix with any of them. If you enjoy their company it probably means you're as poorly educated as them. And hookers are for private fun, not public display (even Thais know this).
  11. Indica 15-20%THC works best for my arthritis. Pain totally gone, joints returned to normal size, strength regained. Smoke 0.5gm just before bed and you won't feel any high. If it has 'punch' in the name it'll probably work (Tropical Punch, Critical Orange Punch). If it has 'kush' in the name it probably won't work (Lemon Kush). Sativa does nothing for me.
  12. 1. I earned so much money I didn't care. 2. I didn't care. 3. I didn't care. Life taught me .... All that's important in my life is me and what I want. Me me me me me. Lucky I have enough money to buy what I want. Sucks to be poor as you Goat, and having to worry about what other people want! Sucks even more to be worried that uneducated poor Thai peasants might think you're a loser.
  13. Nothing to do with moving too fast. All to do with men giving up possession of their assets.
  14. Those numbers are only for white men that never left the western world. And IMHO they're way too high. If I'd stayed in the west it would have been 5 partners, and less than 1x a month.
  15. How much respect do you think they have for their wife?
  16. Interestingly, most middle class Thai men I meet all have a suitable age Thai wife at home, and bang 20yo Thai hookers on the side.
  17. I paid my Brit virgin schoolteacher wife for 30 years, and she only put out 1x a month. Thai bargirl costs much less, bangs more, and looks better naked on my bed.
  18. You only need to complete Mattayom 3 (with certificate) age 15 to get those supermarket jobs.
  19. High school is around 12,000bht/year, if you don't pay the 'extras' they don't accept your kid. University loans are hard to get, and then need to be repaid. Lets assume you borrowed 30k/year, outstanding loan 120kbht. Then the job you get pays 20k/month, and you would have earned 15k/month in a supermarket without a degree. How many months do you need to work to break even? 720k loss from not working 4 years + 120k debt = 840kbht loss ..... made up by 5kbht/month wage increase. So that's another 14 years to break even with someone that left after high school age 18. or another 18 years to break even with someone who left school age 15. Seems you don't have much experience of actually living in Thailand.
  20. No, I married a farm girl then sent her to high school and on to university. Obviously if I were as broke as you, I couldn't have done that.
  21. Don't understand your post, Bank app scans QR code, then you check the amount and payee, and can pay the amount (PIN required) or not. There are no links involved. How can this be abused or scammed in any way?
  22. Stop the locals lighting the fires would be the obvious solution.
  23. I have a TTB 'all free' and a TTB 'no fixed' account. If i make 5 transactions a month on the 'all free' it gives me an additional 0.5% on my 'no fixed' account. No ATM fees for using any ATM in Thailand. Debit card costs 250bht/year.
  24. Thought that was Dick Emery.
