My parents always said what is this all about, cant understand it. I loved it and even stayed two nights in 'the village' a few years back to try to recapture those days...

When we drilled our well we used this method, the rods worked for me, they did not work for my wife. It was a long time back but think he used two brazing rods bent into an L shape for the handle, you hold both rods in front of you and level with the ground, then walk around, when the rods cross or come together that is where the water is, its an uncanny feeling when it happens. My neighbor just a few weeks back wanted to put down an extra but very deep well and was able to find someone in Pattaya who came along with ground penetrating radar and scanned the ground, he showed me the pictures on his phone that the guy gave to him, the water showed up as blue in the colored picture on the phone and also gave the depth. Unfortunately he is on a touring holiday in the US at this time so I cant easily ask him for the contact number.

Topic is now running in the news forum https://aseannow.com/topic/1303011-shocking-moment-british-father-and-son-are-brutally-beaten-by-bouncers-as-they-are-kicked-out-of-a-bar-in-thailands-sin-city/ //CLOSED//

My father swore by Dulux paint and used to spend hours in England cleaning and preparing the surface, he said it is the most important part of painting. After many years painting the house and perimeter walls in Thailand I don't think that applies here, the paint they make here covers everything under it with no preparation, mold, dirt, discoloring, it covers everything and does not come through later even after many years. We have three rai of land and painting the outside wall is like paining the forth bridge, on our first attempt at painting we jet washed and wire brushed all the dirt and mold off, but as we moved on didn't bother, result after many years later absolutely no difference at all. I have a theory that Thai paint is made specially to cover everything, I usually use TOA, sometimes I thin it with a little water other times I don't bother. Buying paint at the home depot shops is more expensive than buying it at a specialized paint shop Picture attached is of wife and sister painting outside wall after fifteen years, as it was a lite color originally and trees and grass grew up against it, it did not wear well. No need for undercoat on existing paint, just match it and paint over it after removing any loose bits. Its is easier if you use a roller on a proper steel pole, not one of the plastic ones, they bend and you cant get the pressure on the roller. Match and buy the paint yourself, make a note of the paint number, date and get a blob of paint on the label, check the base they used A B or C this is the variable, then find someone to do the job for you if you want, we have the big climbing frames and the little frames also ladders, trucks and dozens of brushes and rollers etc so we always do it ourselves.
