What is a power 'frequency converter' and why do they put them in aircons, refrigerators etc.? Do you mean an inverter?

What did the nut say to the screw? "No! Not without a washer you don't."

Had been having bowel and stomach habits changing. Sheryl recommended Associate Professor Dr Phisan at Khon Kean University Hospital (KKU), After Hours Clinic. Saw Dr Phisan last week and booked in for a Covid/EKG/Blood test Thursday and Endoscopy and Colonoscopy on Friday. Cost for medicine and all tests B 40000. KKU After Hours Clinic is a beautiful new modern facility and part of Khon Kean University Hospital. Initially que up to get a dr. visit number (Thai/Farang ID card is accepted and actually works in their computer system). Vital signs checked, then wait for Dr, about 1300 hr. I already had results of a complete blood test and stomach cancer check, which were all in spec. Saw Dr. Phisan, checked me over and made my scope appointment and chemist gave medicine. There is a large area to sit while you wait, food trucks and parking near the hospital with a shuttle bus connection. KKU also has a new hotel close by for around B 900/night (connected by shuttle bus). Ideal for us living 2.5 hours from the hospital. So plan A is to drive to the hotel Thursday, shuttle to the hospital and do the hospital tests, then Friday have the proceedure and Wifey drive home.

In Thailand. How do I watch the Swans win from a non-pay site? Have VPN.

Now that has to be The Worst Joke Ever. ????

For around 3m3 it's easier to get a cement truck. Good preperation, truck in, job finished. I'd go for a strong mix and reo, just incase you want to put heavier weight on it in the future. Doing it with a mixer is good fun but takes a while. (Also probably going to have more animal footprints on it). ????

Is it the 2 nude girls having sex behind the satellite dish?

I think you're right. Took me all nite just looking at that pic...and now I'm right too. ????

Dare I say it ....Cheap Charlie. ????

I'm not sure about that. Bought a Pattaya house for B 1.4 m long time ago, now can easily get B3.4 but hangging out for B5.2m.

Boo Hoo i don't get it. ????

B 500 for 2 hr oil massage. ????

Yes, twas a wee bit difficult to express an appreciation for those deranged folkes who post the jokes. ????

I think those dredges off the beach area are a permanent fixture. Just give them a good coat of paint, maybe yellow and pink stripes or purple/green stripes. When the sand washes out, suck it up and pipe it back to the beach. No problems. Before the rain the sandy beach looked great.

He'd really be galloping to the toilet. 'Excuse me, please pass the horse.'

Yes that's what I would do but saw a Youtube video that removed the tile then layed down a bead of what looked like silicon, then stuck the tile back down. If I used that method I wouldn't have to hammer out the under tile concrete to replace with new concrete. If the tile is still stuck a bit after removing the grout, heating the tile to expand it may save from breaking the tile. Looked good on the video.

Outside floor tiles.

I have a couple of loose outside tiles that I want to re-glue. I see on some videos that you scrape out the tile grout and then heat the tile with a blow tourch, remove it, then apply a trail of silicon and replace the tile. I have an LP gas bottle and want to buy a gas line and blow tourch. There are many on Lazada. Anyone used one and has a recommended unit to buy? Thanks.

Sound great and progressive to me. A week in Ko Chang, then a health week in Pattaya followed by a week in Koh Samui.

Nice house. ???? This design pretty typical of townhouse designs. I always wondered why that horizontal beam seems soooo huge. If you can't chip away enough render to give clearance, you may be able to get a structual engineer to assess the structure and narrow the beam size over the stairwell.

Correct and hence the warning lights. I would normally not leave that early but I had to get to Kalasin Road Transport early enought to change over my number plates. 0200hr is 2 am. Got you covered mate. ????

Drove into our local Mo Baan Friday arvo. and kids on bikes all giving the 3 finger sign to cars. Some cars tooting some not.

Just did a 12 hr drive from Chonburi to near Mukdahan and for nearly all of 700 odd km there are road works. At 0200 hr most road work places are dark, plus rained most the way and nearly all the trucks stopping at traffic lights engaged their worning lights as they slowed down before the traffic light stop. There's gotta be a reason for that. Seems obvious to me. I do it too if stopped at lights and can see the next wave of vehicles coming in the rear mirror.

Do you think spiral staircases are ok when you're oldish or pissedanbroke?

Sorry to go off topic. I usually take the stairs everywhere (no lifts etc) and many/most of the stairs are built incorrectly. Either the 'run' is too small or large or the 'rise' is the same. Many, many 2 or 3 storey buildings have low head height. But the builders seem to use those cement slabs, placed side by side for the second, third floors. So you may be able to have steps to a landing, then 90 degrees for more steps to the second floor and remove some cement slabs without interfering with the beams. But as Crossy says, need a picture or two. Building correct stairs is a real art.
