best thing I came up with..turn the power off with the flap wide open, and use a toothbrush to clean the wheel. Takes ten or 15 minutes.

I tried a couple of times with a toothbrush and in my opinion its a lot of hard work at awkward angles and still impossible to clean every nook and cranny...taking the blower wheel out and cleaning it in the bathroom is much easier,perfectly clean .... but,  big big but...  they can be a real pain in the "but"  to reinstall again  obviously some models make the removal/ re-install easy but some like my York one  it's horrid  to reinstall

Using a power washer cleans it extremely fast  but  presents other problems, keeping the water out of  places it shouldn't be and  protecting the wall and furniture form water damage  so takes much more time and effort setting up than actually cleaning the thing.

I also tried a garden chemical pump up sprayer  and toothbrush combo method which worked quite well but still took quite a while to get all the gunk out of the blower wheel + awkward angle while perched on a ladder.

4Gb of ram is quite sufficient,but as always more ram is better.

Yeah, I suppose spreaders is a better translation.

Six month ago thai people wear mask,

They where wearing masks six months ago because of the  world record breaking air pollution..maybe the masks stopped the Wuflu  or maybe the pollution killed it stone dead ?

( not that it was alive to begin with ???? )

Some things just don't seem to exist in Thailand going by my experiences! "Tree surgeons"

Highly not recommended the bunch that did and continue to do this.

I use the Govermennt Saving Bank of Thailand. 1000 baht to open. No tax. 0.9% interest.

Are you sure no tax..I thought they started applying tax to all accounts that belong to foreigners unless you provide them with a tax number.

what's a photo of a plastic basket with a few rags in it got to do with the story.

Maybe the only possessions left of a jobless and homeless person ?

E.L.O   Here is the news. A cure's been found for good old Wuflu lad. Here is the news. Someone left their life behind in a plastic bag.

Check out this car on a gravity hill in Aryshire, Scotland:

The 6,150 baht one of course ????     I normally go for  the product with a good price and many reviews/stars

and ship from Thailand so the 2 top left are strong contenders.

Chinese foreigners he meant.

No specific mention in the original article ( as far as I can see) of Chinese

โดยพบว่าชาวต่างชาติจำนวนมากซึ่งอาศัยอยู่ในเมืองพัทยา เป็นทั้งผู้ติดเชื้อและผู้แพร่เชื้อในคราวเดียวกัน

It was found that a large number of foreigners that live in Pattaya where both infected and carriers of the illness ( my translation maybe not correct ? )

Jesus that  looks  <deleted>,  nice bits  of  copper showing and so erm ......orderly.

Government Housing Authority "electricians"   they had 4000+  rooms to wire up so maybe rushed a bit ????

that's so nearly right. Assuming (dangerous) that green=ground and grey=neutral then move all the green wires to the left hand bus bar (fixed to the box) and all the grey wires to the right hand bus bar (on the insulators).

Thanks @Crossy  Yes your assumptions are correct, for my apartment  but in others  I've seen "they" used grey as live  and then reversed the polarity at the meter 

  "they" being the Government Housing Authority "electricians"

good job I don't have to check/correct the other 4,000 +  apartments ????

mounts after the answer his motorcycle and drives away without helmet and backlight.

But with a facemask on of course. ????

Here is how they wired mine..

which I don't think is 100% correct ? as the Neutral can't be isolated via the (not) "safe-t-cut" breaker.

some of the apartments have the Live and Neutral reversed

( notice both live and Neural wires are black  )  So they are switching Neutral instead of Live !!!!

Thai economics - The Ambassador has raised its prices twice in the last month for use of amenities;

"Special" price "Standard IT" room 15th Jun till 31st October at the "Inn Wing"

Ocean Wing prices 1st July till 31 October.

The price will obviously vary according to how many square meters you want tiling.

For wall tiles I'd much rather have the old ones removed especially if they sound "hollow"   its a favourite trick just to put a few blobs of  adhesive on the tile and slap it on the wall,with the extra weight of another tile its quite possible they will come crashing down on your foot some time while showering (sods law)

The moral of the story seems to be don't buy/sell a vehicle from another province.

I don't agree at all, yes  its a bit more hassle to buy from another province but the choice and price range is much better if you search the whole country instead of just your "home" province.

as for selling then there is no hassle at all.
