I would go the second option and double my chances.
However I am never right, so the first option.

Yonks? YONKS??
Can someone bloody tell me what a "YONK" is?
It sent my autocorrect into fits. Kept trying to bring up "Yank" and "wank." Even smartphones rebel.
It's something old people say when they mean bare long, fam.
Ie. Haven't had a wank in yonks.

Recent facebook post.
American: "What time is it in Australia?"
Australian "Twenty to four in the arvo"
American: "I literally have no idea what that means"

If Sipi wore leather in public some Thai would put a ring through his nose and tether him in a rice paddy.
Exactly!Thais do not like that sort of behavior out in public, it`s bad etiquette in Thai culture.
All the OP actually witnessed was two individuals who originally met in 'seedy' Thailand which have travelled to another location in Thailand.
They need to get a room, there's a time and a place for everything......you don't see 'sipi' marching around the shopping centre wearing all his studded leather gear, because he saves that for the bedroom or his modified garage/BDSM Den.

If the hole gets too big just turn it over.Might make the hole bigger
Oh hang on, that was the original problem.

Swapping snot at the public swimming baths wouldn't be appreciated in most cultures.

The Thai women I have met are not desperate. They too have choice.

Why does this character suddenly spring to mind?

Ok, and on a serious note.
Our mattress weighs a ton, but the base is really light. It almost seems out of proportion.

Is there a hole in the mattress?
Does it have a name?

Edit. Original post deleted.

I envy you. The thread I started about the deprivation of dental hygiene in rural Isaan only got 3 replies.
If I knew the mattress thing would have been more fun I would have started it myself.

Is there a hole in the mattress?
Or a lump?

Was this book written by a woman? It just seems unusual.Someone should record all this stuff and flog it off to naïve tourists.
Ah, wait.....
I read a book, not a very good book, it was a poorly written piece about Thailand written by an obvious sexpat who passes herself off as an expert in relation to everything about Thailand. The reality is, she wouldn't have a clue about Thailand and gained most of her experience in the seedy sois and hovels scattered around the place. I looked into the author and subsequently had a huge laugh. What a sad sad thing she was.
Bit of a scam, taking money from folks passing yourself of as one thing, when in fact you are completely another thing.
Shame on her.

Plus "Personal Trainers", Tour guides, investigative journalists, investment advisors......
add muay thai boxers to the listWho else lives here aside from teachers? Retired gents? Real estate agents? Legal Officers? NGO staff? Ebay salesmen? Businessmen?
Of that list I see no reason why teachers would be singled out for ridicule. Real teachers, with a teaching degree, that is.

And don't make the most common mistake and over-tighten everything.

Fieberbrunn, Austria, skiing aged 10.....all the way by train from Lincolnshire (except for the ferry). They still loaded cargo and luggage in nets in those days, and gave access out onto the deck while at sea (admittedly, we had to man the oars).
And no doubt the train section would have been on a Stephenson's steam loco.

Freezers run at -18 in ambient temps of 40C.
You might need to get an upright freezer and set the thermostat (or get someone to fit another thermostat) at -8C.
I can't see an upright fridge getting down to -8.

London via Singapore and Abu Dhabi from Sydney, an organised tour for 6 weeks then another 2 months wandering around, aged 19.
Loved it.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) it is difficult to drive overseas from Australia.

I am more interested in the breadboard and usb interface. Could you post a schematic please?
Actually I just slapped it together without a schematic. I'll put together something for you. Because serial comm ports on PCs are becoming more scarce I designed a USB-Serial converter, the module you see at the bottom, and all new designs I do use this now. I sent the board out to a commercial PCB facility and had a bunch made. Then have a tech who populates it here.
The parts for the breadboard:
1. PIC16F688 (any PIC or microcontroller will do)
2. A HopeRF HHT02D (SHT11 equiv) digital (2 wire) temperature/humidity sensor. This is an expensive item, $30USD at Futurlec but they had a similar version for $10 and I bought several of them. If only monitoring temperature a very simple solution is the LM35 sensor for about 72 baht at Elements.
3. 1 resistor
Power for the system comes from the USB bus so no external supply needed.
The USB-Serial converter uses one IC, FT232RL (about 100 baht IC)
There are sensors shown on this Thai website - http://www.thaieasyelec.com/products/sensors/humidity-temperature.html
And here - http://www.arduino.in.th/product/78/dht11-digital-temperature-and-humidity-sensor
I bought several of those DHT11 sensors as they are cheap but haven't written the software for it yet.
Thanks very much.
Currently in Oz but will check it out.
