deadbeat

I got lucky. Some years ago I had a Hatari fan that for some reason started going real slow. Was gonna ditch it but then in the winter months it's real handy as it gives a nice gentle breeze, just enough to move the air. No good in the summer but as you know, you cant buy these.

Agree with the orignal post 100%. How it will happen is unknown, but no doubt it will. Abortion, gender transitioning, euthanasia etc and the abandonment of Israel will be the defining matters. Us voters have a choice, may they use it wisely.

Fwiw,I lost 20kg or about 40lbs in a relatively short space of time. Went from 210lbs to 170 in about 3 months. Could'nt believe how easy it was. Been 2 years and still 170lbs. Omad but never too strict, small intake of food and I saw 1 or 2 lbs a day gone. Like it was dripping off me. Takes mental strength but anyone can do it.

This dude needs to read what the Einsatzgruppen got up to when they went in behind the advancing German armies on the road to Moscow.

I cant wait to see Starmer running over to Berlin to congratulate the new Afd chancellor and then flying to Paris to consult with the new president of France, Ms Le Pen. Forget about rejoining.

When the AFD takes power in Germany and Le Pen in France I wonder what the reaction will be in the Uk? Still want to rejoin? I think not.

Warmongering rubbish. Just another way to justify increased defense spending when clearly the russians couldn't even take over their nearest neighbour. What kind of threat is that to the west? It's laughable.

Kemi will become leader, forget Boris. She will have to somehow bring Reform back into the fold. Without this happening the Tories have no chance of ever being in govt again. Perhaps not a bad thing. Combined, Reform and Tories can beat Labour, but not divided.

I just completed this quiz. My Score 60/100 My Time 78 seconds  

3 weeks ago my 2 mulberry bushes were laden with bright red fruit. I was looking forward to lots of black mulberries and making some jam. Now they are all gone, birds or chipmunks maybe. Anyone have any ideas how I can prevent this happening next time?

Just ordered some from Lazada, Thank you.

Just noticed these grubs on my new kumquat bushes, only going to be stalks left if I don't get rid. On my existing bushes I can accept some leaf munching and once established are ok. On the new ones I have wrapped a very sticky tape around the trunk and now hope that this'll work in detering them. Does anyone have a better solution to this problem? Just planted a grapefruit and noticed some damage so wrapped this as well. All informed information welcome. Cheers

Vitually non-existant here, I leave the keys in the bike all the time, car unlocked and only a lock on the front gate. Never had anything stolen or any issues. Unlike back home, the reverse applies.

Apparently there are still 9 thai hostages somewhere underground in Gaza. Not a peep from the gov about these poor souls. In fact the thai gov voted in favor of palestinian representation at the UN, all while this is still going on.

GBH is a step down from attempted murder. Best place for him.

Could you be buried on your own property?

Has anyone successfully grown pigeon peas here? I grew some from seed but none got past 10 cms or so. Is the direct sun too much for them? Native to Mexico and India so I would have thought they would be ok but maybe Thai sun is to much for them. I have some seedlings now at 10-12 cms but will plant them in a shady spot and see how they do. Any informed advice welcome. Cheers

Just an update on my renewal issues and some new info. Another stressful day on Friday. Had to go to main branch in the city to get the letter that stated 12 monthly payments into my account from overseas. Why this could not be done at my branch is a mystery. Back to immi and then told they will not accept the letter because" the money came from myself" My letter stated that the money had come from my personal account. They want it to come from a pension or a company or something like that. The letter that someone posted on the previous post was fine because it didn't show where the money had come from, only that it had been deposited on a certain day. As this was deadline day for me had to sort it asap, not cheap but the least expensive option. So, the lesson is to make sure the letter, if doing the 12 monthly way, either states that it came from a remote source or does not state it at all and only that the money was deposited. To cap all this, after running around the city for a couple of hours, get a screw in the back tyre and had to slither to the shop to get that sorted. Thank the Lord I only have to deal with this once a year.

Update. Thanks for all the replies. Chiang Mai, K-bank, 65k amonth and been using this agent for several years. Knows the ropes. I use her because I cant be arsed to wait in the immi office, in and out in 10 mins, job done and she gets hers. Thanks for the tenplate, may try and use that but bank may not play ball. I will know by Friday what the score is, update then.

It's that time of year so went to the bank for the immigration letter. They copied out my statement in full, gave me a letter and off I went to my agent. "This no good, have to get letter with the 12 deposits on it". Back to the bank, "cannot do" only can give you 3 months for 500b. Call the agent and give the girl the phone. "Cannot, only 3 months" "What! This no good. Immigration want 12 months on a letter stating amount transferred and the dates. Must be all 12 months. "Cannot, cannot" Back to the agent and leave everything with her. Sounds like its gonna cost. I paid the 800k last year and before that covid but back in 2019 and beyond never had this problem, same bank. Agents talking about a template that other agents use, we'll see. Spent 4 hours on the bike today, tooing and frowing, now hot and bothered. Anyone else had this problem? My bank is a major branch in a mall so has many falang, cant believe it's only me.

Biggest one I saw was about a foot long, I disturbed it from some leaves and luckily it ran up the tree. I dont doubt that had this stung me I would have died. I heard a story that this happened to someone who was sleeping on the ground and got bit, he died shortly afterwards. As you say, anaphalactic shock.

Another Biden war we have to deal with that could have been prevented. Thanks Joey, you're doin a geat job.
