...my friends who I climbed Mt Everest with in 1985
Tell us more....
I can't be bothered. Even the photos are fading.

Thanks,
Both need a check, I need a police clearance also because I have lived in Thailand for more than 12 months in the last 10 years.
If you have lived in Thailand, for more than 12 months, you will also need a police clearance from Thailand, this will require your finger prints(original, not copy}, obtained from the AFP, or if available, from local police, to be sent to the RTP, don't forget the "tea" money or you Thai clearance may take a long time.
Crap.

The first time I saw the immigration line for "ALIENS" was in Japan during the seventies. Japanese one line, aliens the other.
I was shocked.
These days nothing surprises me.
-
Of course. Even my friends who I climbed Mt Everest with in 1985 don't keep in touch.
A tad disappointing, but who cares.

LOL Trans.
I opened a "facebook" account in my real name (Phil Smith) in the hope of catching up with some old friends, only to receive a message from facebook .."This account is permanently suspended. No-one can have a real name like that"..
It was never meant to be...Fate 555
But I am happy we have been chums for a while now....
Ooooop's, can I say that...........
According to google, I am a Russian classical composer who died in 1547.

As we get older we keep in contact with fewer and fewer friends.
I don't know anyone from my school days, one or two from Uni, and a few from my early working years.
Of course I have made quite a few new friends since, but how many do you keep in touch with from childhood (even with "social media")?
Is there anyone you think "I wonder what he/ she is doing now?"

Australians don't need the permission from the Police to get married in Australia....yet...
Anyway, I asked a friend who has done it recently for his wife and apparently they used an "agent"..
Might be best if Eddie can post a blow by blow account...
-
Yeah the moral of the story is, do it in Bangkok if possible.

Am I correct in assuming you need to get your Thai partner a Thai police clearance certificate? Myself and my Thai misses are in the process of doing exactly that right now. Because we are now in Oz she has to apply by post and has to get fingerprints done at the cop shop then get them authenticated at the DFAT office in Brisbane and then send them to the Thai Embassy in Canberra to be legalised and only then we can send them off to Thailand along with the other paperwork to apply for the certificate. They don't make it easy.
The other (simpler) option for her Police Clearance is to lug the correct paperwork to the Thai Embassy in Sydney and get them to deal with it. Train to Circular Quay, walk to the embassy. They are extremely helpful. Take a pile of $1 coins for the photocopy machine in the foyer.
Sydney is nice this time of the year.

You might want to check that. Neither me nor anyone else I know who has lived overseas for extended periods has needed a Police check from Thailand or anywhere else.
The "applicant" needs one for every country he/she has lived in for longer than 12 months over 10 years.
You are the sponsor not the applicant. You only need Police Checks if there is a child under 18 years of age involved.

You can get them in Australia online but my Mrs can't remember the site. If you don't have an answer by tomorrow we will ask a friend who has done it recently.

Me too..

Fine specimen.
That bottom one is soaking wet. Where did they find it?
I hope they didn't kill the sod. It looks rather cute. I would like it as a pet.

I had a rat latch onto me once. It took years to get rid of the damn thing.
-
Is stray beaver more of a problem in Thailand?
-
You could feed an entire village with that rat.

Hey OP rather than go into a massive spool about refrigeration, google "high head pressure" and go from there (assuming it isn't something like a contactor playing up). It could be a dozen things.
Maybe time for a service?
-
Thanks for that. I am a fridgie by trade. The condenser is controlled by the head pressure (or compressor discharge pressure/ temperature).
I would not agree with you 100%.The condenser has nothing to do with room temperature.
Try leaving all doors & windows open while the AC is running with the temperature set to a minimum and observe the behaviour of the outdoor unit - it will run continuously as the indoor unit tries to reach the set temperature.
Both units works hand in hand to maintain the required temperature.
EDIT
The compressor is controlled by an internal thermostat. As the thermostat detects warm air, it activates the outdoor compressor. The compressor circulates a refrigerant gas, increasing the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant as it compresses it through a series of pipes. The refrigerant then moves to the condenser for further processing.
In the condenser, a cooling system removes heat from the high-pressure gas and the gas changes phase and becomes a liquid. This chilled liquid is pushed through tubing indoors until it reaches the evaporator system.
Inside the home, the evaporator fan collects warm air and passes it through a chamber containing the chilled liquid refrigerant. The fan system blows this air, which has now been cooled, back into the room, lowering the overall temperature of the space. If the thermostat still detects air that is warmer than desirable, the process continues, and the refrigerant and any excess heat that remains in the system are passed back outdoors to the compressor in order to begin the cycle again.
Start by giving the condenser a good clean.

Is the LG a variable output (inverter) type? Does it run at a slower speed when the room cools down or flat out?
-
I have seen the argument that they are only adding water to the air.
They work on evaporation. If you wet a face cloth and spin it around (or put it in front of a fan for a little while) then put it on your face, it will feel quite cool; even in humid climates. Try it.
Evaporative coolers work exactly the same way.
How to get police clearance from Australia?

Ok Eddie. Just lay it on the line for the OP.
How does he get the Police Clearance for his partner?
