  1. I meant the discs
  2. Thanks
  3. My view on that is if you do not have the training/ experience you shouldn’t be involved in electrical installation beyond maybe replacing power points etc. As we know electricity is unfoqrgiving.
  4. Hi I am interested in views as whether you should have the front dic brake calipers machined when changing the dic pads if they are not damaged or scored. I am not worried about the cost but note it’s seems to be part of Ford’s scheduleh
  5. The statement in your first paragraph is incorrect, I think you are confusing the changes introduced several years ago requiring the applicant to have resided continuously in Australia for a period of two years prior to making the application or residing continuously for two years after receiving the pension. For what it’s worth I know of two Australians who didn’t meet the above requirement and still receive the pension
  6. Well it would seem there is a similar problem in other countries if you read the report handed down in New Zealand in recent days dealing with the neglect and abuse of individuals in institutional care many of the organisations run by the churches. A similar situation came to light in Australia several years ago after a far reaching enquiry again the worst offenders were the religious organisations The problem is nobody wants orphans, disabled people etc and it’s costly to look after them so the governments are happy to farm it out.
  7. There is no shortage of places who supply electrical cables with the earth wire HomePro is more for the DIY person their plumbing supplies are the same.
  8. I live 150kms north of Chiang Mai and it certainly can get cold more so in the hills I remember a few of years ago it didn’t get beyond 13 o C. For about five days. I am from Sydney and to me that is cold.
  9. I think you are spot on with your comments, about a year ago a tree directly outside our house was struck by lightening, this resulted in the power board and some other component in one of our two washing machines being rendered useless. The laundry is outside and about twenty metres away from the tree neither were in use but both plugged in.
  10. Don't they need a work permit to sell them?
  11. If he is not seeking medical advice what is he seeking? A blocked nose and sprays don't work sounds like a problem to me.
  12. Having today just returned from Sydney and looking at prices it would be a pretty low standard of living
  13. I am in Sydney at the moment and yes the grocery stores are well stocked but whilst there is plenty of healthy yummy food it is far from cheap the prices are eye watering. On top of that Utility costs, transport,especially taxis, government charges and don't even contemplate a Thai massage. To be fair wine is considerably cheaper than Thailand and today I bought a Braun shaver today at a 45 percent discount. Glad to be going home to Thailand. PS I don't live on a Aus government pension.
  14. What about Bovril in the UK Dame stuff but not for me however nutritious
  15. With all due respect why would you seek medical advice on this site? You don't state where you live but in Chiang Mai you can see a specialist for about 600 baht consultation fee at Chiang Mai Ram and cheaper if you go to a Government Hospital. Surely your health is worth that amount?
