That depends heavily on your location(?) and distance to transmission tower.

DVB-T coverage is far from complete for the whole country.

In our (remote) area I am not aware of a single DVB-T user.

All satellite dish.

Thank you, l am east of Don Maung. I will try to find out which tower I was using before.

Thanks again.

Mods - if their is a recent thread here that i couldn't find via google, please add the link and close this one if you want. Thank you.

I have just had my old outdoor TV antenna removed as it was going to pull down the wooden roof facade. Sadly their are no flat areas on my roof and the guy who removed the old antenna cut the coax cable flush to the eaves.

So in order to watch Thai free digital TV (channel 3, 5 etc) do l need to put up a new outdoor antenna or can an indoor antenna suffice with good quality? We only watch TV downstairs in the sitting room. If I can get away with an indoor antenna, any neat small recommendations?

Many thanks.

Digging a hole in te ground, putting in pipes and refill the holes isn't really a big deal.

Drawing wires into the pipes isn't difficult either, connecting the wires is a normal procedure also.

The biggest job is taking away old cabling and piles.

Sorry but you sound like a typical sub sub sub subcontractor.

The mayor ordered the contractor to compile a report outlining plans regarding traffic and parking during the scheduled eight-month period to be able to inform local residents and business owners of the impact the project will have on the area.

Should have been part of the RFP and not waiting until now.

A total joke using the asphalt cutter as shown.

Anyhow, so how does one now watch the UCL live or on on demand, the next morning over a full English??

Android box?

Power buy have "deal of the day" Samsung 49 inch smart TV for 12,990B (41% discount). I think you can pay COD or counter service.

Before hitting the buy button check the vac power rating.

A 120 watt 12 volt car vac would require a 220 volt to 12 volt adapter capable of delivering 10 amps.

Thank you for your info, sadly it just says 12volt on the box only so l am unsure. Will just buy a mini vacuum instead. 

Thanks again for your feedback.

You would need a 12 volt DC power source of some kind. You might be able to find one that the existing plug would go into.

Have a look through a few pages here. https://www.lazada.co.th/catalog/?from=suggest_normal&location=local&page=2&q=12v adapter

Thanks UbonJoe, I think I found one.

Lazada never came to mind.

Thanks again.

I found a car vacuum cleaner (plug into cigarette lighter type) when clearing our storage room. I am basic knowledge wise when it comes to electricity but could it safely be converted to use in the house for small cleaning jobs instead of getting out the vacuum cleaner and tools?

Would I need to cut off the cigarette lighter adaptor and fit a plug?

Many thanks.

An impromptu re-enactment with a stand-in was conducted at police HQ.

These reenactments should not take place IMHO. Not like this anyway.

My Wife and I too had received 3 fines in the post for traffic violations caught on camera (speeding on the express way and crossing a fixed white line) over the past 12 months (car tax year).

 

We renewed our Tax last month.... no mention of the fines we have not yet paid !!!! 

 

That said - It would be great to see a reduction in vehicles on Bangkoks streets, combined with better traffic light programming for flow etc...  

 

Oooh look at you Richard. Why didn't you pay?

I paid my fine my fine for crossing a white line on Chaeng Wattana...

Get off your pulpit mate.

The two victims said Poramin had found them selling overpriced lottery tickets, taken them into his car and told them that they would be taken to his police station.

Robbers getting robbed sounds fair to me... as each ticket is clearly marked 80 Baht.

Cheers Wilai...good to have some earlier matches now.

If you want full fat, there is some Australian Greek style yoghurt at Big C or Friendship. 

I have the real thing here, but I import it for my own use. 

Second best to that is the organic yoghurt sold in Friendship in the plastic jars with the red screw on tops.

 

 

Thank you, I live in bkk so no friendship mart. I was afraid of the Greek "style" as I was unsure.  I will endeavour and report back. 

Thanks.

Envy these kids racing, as I did at their age !

Then go and get a scooby-i and change the rims, dig out your skinny jeans and Alice band. The repsol stickers l have seen in tesco.

Thanks Wilai, l guess its Walsall v Barnsley tonight for me then. Predicting a 2-0 away win.

The problem is the recipe.  Too much yoghurt.  Most recipes have equal quantities of flour and yoghurt by weight.  That recipe has 225 g yoghurt to 142 g flour.

Thanks Oxx, l bought more Yolida yoghurt today. You suggest 140ish in grams?

Thanks again.

Ban this mafia taxi drivers (win) 

And taxi no meter too 

Let people use what their want 

And have the general public have a choice?

It will never happen as we both know... sadly. 

I have just been reading the Yolida product guide and this is low fat yoghurt when the recipe calls for full fat yoghurt.

Possibly where I went wrong.

Thanks guys, l shall give it another whirl.

Was your marble rolling bench cold ??

No it was not, and no way to cool it down as we don't have direct aircon directly into the kitchen.

Nope, yogurt type wouldn't make any difference.

You probably added too much water or Yogurt.

 

The dough should be slightly tacky, yours was probably too wet.

A photo of the 'mess' would have been helpful.

Thanks BritManToo for your input, no water was in the recipe only the 3 ingredients. I added the amounts as specified in the recipe as pasted below.

https://www.biggerbolderbaking.com/flatbread-recipe-3-ingredients-easy/

Could it be that my kitchen was too hot as the oven had been on most of the day?

Thanks again.

I just fancied some garlic flat breads and found a 3 ingredient recipe calling for all purpose flour, baking powder and full fat natural p!ain yoghurt (or greek yoghurt)

I used Yolida yoghurt and it was a mess.

Would that be because it is a 'live' yoghurt?

Thanks for any advice.

Logic, kid got the gun. Kids should not be able to do so. Guns should be kept away from kids. In this case the child got the gun. That proves that it was available for the kid and not locked away.

It is your "lying around".... You must be guessing. Yes or no?
