  1. Well I tried the UK servers (2) and could not even register for BBC, kept dropping out my password. Maybe BBC doesn't like me. Sorry
  2. I've got express VPN but usually don't use UK servers. I found the help is not very helpful. Just keep plugging on with help requests, that's what I did and eventually prob. was sorted. I think, the VPN server I was using in Aus had it's IP addresses blocked. Anyway all came good when they installed another server. I'll switch to UK servers and try.
  3. Well he thought I gave him a 'stiffy' what ever that is. 🙂
  4. Bad luck...keep drinking, just cut off your foot, less painfull than stopping drinking. 🙂
  5. Well done Rabu for posting what I believe also. So instead of him answering how he knows these facts, how do you know they are not correct?
  6. John was definitely possessed.
  7. I went to our local Global House last week for some daylight bright LED bulbs, placed them in the trolley and a nice young assistant, took them out and put another brand lower wattage set of lights in the trolley, said the origional brand were no good, break quickly, but the new brand good. I don't think he was on commission for the particular light brand, but, from experience, just being helpful.
  8. I've taught in Aus, Indonesia, China and Thailand. Should have a degree and TEFL (or equivalent). Some language schools may just require a TEFL certificate. You mainly should meet the requirements to get a work permit, that's why you need a degree. Teaching anywhere without a work permit leaves you open to jail or abuse. Many Asian countries have a retirement age of 60 years old.
  9. Sorry @DrJack54 , bit thick and old. So I fly in with a completed TM87 and give to Imm at airport? Then go to Kalasin with the Retirement O application, bank book etc. (Your response didn't show up, I had to search for it)
  10. Never heard of VocalNeals, but Leopolds goes forever.
  11. No, but you do. 🙂
  12. Yes good idea. I've not had a problem, well a slight one, with them. I found this supplier who seemed to have a good reputation with e-biked. I ordered 2 folding e-bikes to put in the SUV when we go away. The supplier went over time delivering and aliexpress said time was finished and the transaction was completed. When the bikes did come and I assembled them, there was a couple of minor faults with one and a battery charger light, but because the supplier said they were special order, they wouldn't take them back. Really it was probably my fault as much as the supplier. With large orders (US$ 3000) I have to be a lot more careful and completely understand aliexpress policies.
  13. 'There Off' (said the monkey as the train ran over his nackers.) It's Sunday. 🙂...anyway, We're off for a few months (not sure yet) outside Thailand. My present Retirement Extension is until May 2024 and we may not be back in time to renew it. I have an O retirement visa with the B80000 in the bank version. Can I come back on a Tourist visa and go to my Kalasin Imm. office and redo my Retirement Visa? Would I get a Visa On Arrival, or what's the best to do for an old fella like me? Thank you.
  14. Tried Roiet and Kuchinari and no hab.
  15. All done. Initially because the lamps wifey bought were only about 80B each and all metal with no earth wires I thought I would install an RCBO. It didn't work. Then I found there was going to be 2 sets of 3 lights switched separately, so the electrician had shared the neutrals, so I turned it all off to fix it. We never use those lights but, years later I'm on one of my fix everything broken thinggy before I can't get in there with a ladder.
  16. Ahhhh the brown smell.....guilty. 🙂
  17. That's woke....when woke wasn't around. 🙂
  18. Buy the new 5million hour day/night LED. Can't go wrong....don't quote me. 🙂
  19. Never forget....black, bas****, roo***, our, young, girl, beaut, virgin gone, west. 555555 It's an analogue, Telecom thing.
  20. Here's a different brand Daylight sensor. Green for neutral? Great advice on the box. 'If light does not turn on during the night, check the light bulb.'
  21. Me too....now see if it works without clouds triggering it. SWAGHW wanted them installed all around the back of the house, but at sunrise they kept flickering on/off, so they all got turned off. Thanks. I just do what I'm told (mostly). "Yes dear" makes for happy hubby. 🙂
  22. Driveway lights nearly done (had to buy one new mechanical bit yesterday). Strange (to me anyway) I could not buy green heatshrink. I sprayed the yellow heatshrink green. 🙂 I also noticed that the red cables are white, just dipped in red paint probably. I looked at all the old 220v power cable I have left over from the house wiring 8 years ago, and alot of the red paint has come off leaving Rd/Wh (it's an analogue term like 'slate') cable.
  23. Thank Christ the analogue problem is sorted. 🙂 Now I may be the last to know, but lovely wifey wants more lights that come on in the night time (dark) only. So I only did know of those switches you install outside the light to create this magic. But found a magic LED light that does it all. Amazing.
  24. Love the American sailors in Patts. Was at a bar (long time ago) when a junior sailor was having an argument with another NCO sailor, and I first heard this: ' you talk the talk, but can you walk the walk?' All the other sailors went Woooooo. 🙂 Cracks me up thinking about it.
