  1. The Tuk Tuk driver should have been compensated with about 4000 Baht for having to suffer 4 hours of driving around with an obnoxious Korean as a passenger. They make the Chinese look like pleasant customers.
  2. Yet another click bait crock! The lead photo shows a blown up engine with the nacelle blown off and yet it turns out that there were some sparks seen coming out of the engine! The standard of accurate news reporting just keeps sliding further down the sewer every single day!
  3. Many thanks! appreciate the information. Thanks for taking the time. Interesting to see that they specify that you are not allowed to bring drones into the venue, that might have been interesting! I imagine if it holds a couple of thousand people and everyone was flying a drone it could look a bit like Dresden in WWII
  4. Wonder if anyone can pitch in and shed a bit of light on this venue for me? It is years since I was last in Bangkok and I have some tickets for the Morrissey gig at Samyan Mitrtown Hall, - I have no idea what the venue is like and wondered if anyone had been to see a gig there before. My tickets are Standing in section A. So, a couple of questions for the more seasoned - How big is the venue? How many people does it usually hold? Are there bars, can you grab a beer at the concert hall? What is the difference between section A standing and section B standing? Many thanks!
  5. Thanks for all the valuable replies, some interesting points here. Thanks all of you who chipped in, have to admit it still isn't 100% clarity, but what ever is here? I need to look closer at the building permit as that is a new one for me, I believe I have it, it should be the registered plans to build signed off by the engineer who planned the build and the Amphur that red stamped the plans. Either way, it seems that the blue tabien bahn is simply a registration rather than a title. Thanks for all your help! Greatly appreciated.
  6. You should be able to get your house reg. put into the Yellow "ALIEN" registration book, that is obviously not at all racist or anti foreigner, but you will be looked at as a visitor from Mars.
  7. This intrigues me, you are the only person that mentions a building license. Could this be the same sort of thing as "Planning Permission" from the Amphur? Where the engineering drawings are passed off and red stamped by the local government office to allow construction? Thank you for your input, very interesting as this then takes it up a notch. My wife and son are listed on the blue Tabien Bahn, my son is listed on the Chanote, and I actually signed the documents along with the guy (Thai) who drew up the drawings that were passed by the Amphur. It looks a bit of a mess eh!
  8. Dear God what next, sending manned flight to explore the possibility of putting men on the sun! These clowns should have been in Billy Smart's Circus.
  9. Anyone know what the law is regarding the person named on the full Chanote as opposed to the person named on the Blue House reg. Tabien Bahn? If the land is held by a person named on the chanote, does the house or buildings on that land legally belong to the Chanote holder or the first named on the Tabien Bahn? - (Obviously not talking about a caravan or mobile home) Does the permanent structure on the land belong to the chanote holder or the persons in the Tabien Bahn? Thanks. Even if a second or third party built and paid for the actual dwelling, once constructed and issued with the Tabien Bahn, does this then become part of the chanote holders property? Cheers.
  10. Sorry if this is the wrong place to post but there seems to have been a massive reorder of the forums and I have no idea where the old Electrical forum has disappeared to! I have been having a few problems with my electrical mains supply - (It keeps getting cut off randomly) and when the power is restored it seems to give the system a bit of a blast to the point where I have had three TV's blown, (Backlight LED's and PSU fried) and now two PC's, (looks like fried RAM and a fried CPU) Obviously EGAT are not going to pay for the repairs so I have to bite the bullet again. What I was hoping for is can anyone give me some solid advice as to a decent surge protector that would prevent these devices getting destroyed? I would like to protect the rntire system from the Consumer Unit covering the entire house, but most of the problems have ocurred in one particular room, so even a good brand 4 output power strip would be better than nothing. It might be something to do with the way the house is wired but one room and its sockets are particularly prone to blowing devices - Any good soul out there that has suffered and found the answer, be very pleased to hear from you. (I bought a power strip many years ago that claimed to do everything, surge protection, earth fault detection etc. but it was just a piece of junk that did nothing - so if anyone has some knowledge of a product that works, please let me know) Thanks!
