  2. A very interesting topic for me.

    We have discussed it with my wife and we think it will be proper for us to have a child in about 20 years from now.

    So we have already started thinking of the name.

    Me Costas, her Et.......what about Etco or Coet.

    Ahhhh mai ben rai......we call her Maria.....even if it is a boy.

    What's wrong with Ettas?

  3. As you know, My wife's name is Tuk and I am Phillip.

    When our daughter was born we decided to call her Tulip, half Tuk and half Phillip.

    I was determined to call our son Phuk, half Phillip and half Tuk; but the wife objected in-case it was mispronounced. So we ended up with Morgan.

    So what would you call your child?

    I am guessing that JingThing and NeverDie would be NeverThing? What about David48 and NancyL? Costas and...?

  4. I am the youngest of 4 kids.My much older brother told me when I was 4 or 5 that Santa didn't exist. I half believed him, because he was my older brother.

    So I went to school, and it was time to talk about Santa during my class lesson.

    I whispered to a friend that "maybe Santa isn't true" within hearing distance of out teacher.

    She grabbed my by the ears and pushed me into the corner and said :"Don't you tell anyone that Santa isn't true"..

    So folks. It was actually my <deleted> kindergarten teacher that told me that santa didn't exist whan I was 4. <deleted> bitck....

    Otherwise I would still believe...

  5. Hey OP.

    I was worried you are angry at me...

    Hope you and the family had a great XMas together.

    Yes, trust Crossy on this one. He seems on the pulse.

    Mate,, please message me anytime. I am a loner on this forum too. I am near Phon Cheroen in the North east. Married with a 4 year old boy.

    Phil, Tuk and Morgan

  6. Hey Steve buddy.

    You might be best off (as I am) forgetting ThaiVisaForum as a source of information, and using is best as a source of cheap entertainment.

    I use

    http://www.tripadvisor.com.au/ShowForum-g293915-i3686-Thailand.html

    for practical information.

    For example: If you ask the question about traveling from Nong Khai to Bueng Kan along the Mekong River..

    Tripsdvisor will let you know in 3 posts how to do it...

    TVForum will let you know in 367 posts you are a complete idiot, and so is your wife.

  7. Actually, buoyed by the fortitude of a few beers (we had some good news today), I can say that I understand the OP 100%

    Mai Mee Tongue is a great expression to learn ... laugh.png

    Hey David.

    I understand what Steve is saying also, although his OP was possibly poorly written, or at least poorly interpretted.

    Jesus, haven't I done that a few dozen times, and been subjected to the ThaiVisa Forum "detectives"? (I can think of better words)

    Obviously what Steve is saying is, ......Don't flaunt your wealth.

    I have spoken to Steve personally, and he is a real Gent. I'll say one thing, possibly to his annoyance. His lovely wife "balances the books" as they say.

  8. On the second day of Christmas my true love gave to me...

    A message about ThaiVisa Forum from Peter Gabriel.

    Lyrics...........................................

    "Not One Of Us"

    It's only water
    In a stranger's tear
    Looks are deceptive
    But distinctions are clear
    A foreign body
    And a foreign mind
    Never welcome
    In the land of the blind
    You may look like we do
    Talk like we do
    But you know how it is

    You're not one of us
    Not one of us
    No you're not one of us
    Not one of us
    Not one of us
    No you're not one of us

    There's safety in numbers
    When you learn to divide
    How can we be in
    If there is no outside
    All shades of opinion
    Feed an open mind
    But your values are twisted
    Let us help you unwind
    You may look like we do
    Talk like we do
    -But you know how it is

    You're not one of us
    Not one of us
    No you're not one of us
  9. Hey Mate, you are a true Gentleman for even offering to help. Get a sparky to do the fault-finding, and do the repairs yourself. Might cost a few hundred baht and a bottle of Lao Khao. If I was closer I'd offer to come and give a hand. I have had no problems dealing with local tradesmen, unlike some of the "horror Stories" you read on this forum.

    This is what Thaivisa is all about, we try to assist one-another, if we were closer I too would be happy to go and help sort the problem.

    Having the correct kit makes a massive difference when you have awkward issues.

    Cheers, - my lack of knowledge is also a bit of a downer when it comes to DC and almost DC electrics, my background is RF between 2GHz. and 40GHz. not the same thing really, not a lot of amperage at 40GHz! Thanks for your input - you helped me out a few times in the past my friend ( I visited here over the past 12 years or so as another "identity" - you helped me a few years back)

    Thanks for your assistance, you are probably the only guy on this entire site that I actually trust when it comes to electrics.

    So wish you all the best for Christmas, make sure you have some rubber gloves on and a pair of those nice bright blue Thai Rubber Wellingtons on when you switch on your Thai Chinese Christmas tree lights.......you might need a megga! (or fire extinguisher)

    TV should be about people here helping out, or at least providing a bit of help now and again, sadly over the years the site has become inhabited by rather a lot of low life keyboard armchair <deleted> that are probably sitting all day festering their hatred to anyone that posts here, probably spewing their hate because of the bad decisions they made in their lives.

    take care.

    Hey Vogele.

    240 V a/c, not d/c. Same as Australia without the earth. Active and neutral. Your multimeter might be OK.

  10. One fairly easy task, although a bit time consuming depending on the number, is to remove the plate from all receptacles and switches (maybe start with the light switches since that seems to be the problem circuit) and check for built up dust/dirt, gecko scat, bug nests, etc. That by itself can easily trip an RCD and when wet or damp can trigger over-current - in which case there will usually be evidence of charring. If you do this, be sure to turn off the main breaker before you start. If you have a vacuum cleaner, that's the easiest way to suck out whatever might be accumulated in the box. Except you would have to turn power on to the receptacles long enough to use the vac. smile.png

    Thanks for your help, but to be honest, I think I will just give up before I am accused of murdering her and she can probably sell her kids and chickens to pay for a sprarky.

  11. How would readers feel if the shoe was on the other foot...literally?

    If I was in my home country, say as a shoe salesman, running a legitimate business, and some Thai was illegally selling shoes from under his house down the road; I'd be pissed too.

    Why should a farang be authorised to do the same thing in Thailand?

    (This is theroretical of course. There is always the "Thai factor")

  12. I have never been sick buying local produce (except for beef) and cooking it myself; including the pork, chicken fish etc in open tubs.

    I have, however, been sick many times eating out.

    So I am more concerned with where restaurants source their food supplies.

    But, but according to some posters on this thread, if you cook it properly there can't be any problems. And who else but a restaurant would know how to properly cook meats?

    lol! just because its a restaurant means they maintain standards?

    I am beginning to think that Anthony has never seen the inside of a commercial kitchen.

    Hey Gents. I know nothing about cooking. I had to do some "Hierachy of hazard control measures" in some "hygiene for food handlers" course years ago as a part of my engineering qualifications. But I can honestly remember FA about it.

    I am just saying that; I have never had a problem with cooking my own meats, but have been sick more than a few times eating out.

    Argue away......
