Take the chair to a reupholstry shop and explain why you find it uncomfortable like it currently is and he could probably change the seating to better fit your body size.

 

For a recent air journey, I bought a memory foam cushion from Lazada for Bht 250. Worked wonders. I now use it on my office chair, and also when driving.

I have a happy bum!

Someone has just Pm'd me that there is a Lotus on Therapist road 

Thankyou 

Did he really spell it like that?

Or are you as usual, taking the pi55?

My Mrs and the DiL use the aircon much more than I do.

Just about to do Dubai trip. Air Asia from Phitsanulok to DMK is 20kg allowed/paid for. Emirates to DXB, 25kg. Crazy. What can I buy which weighs 5kg at BKK to put in my case?  555

Our meter is usually read on 17th of each month. PEA were giving discount if the usage was less than 300 units per month.

A couple of months ago my consumption was 296 on the morning of the 17th, but they did not read it until 18th, so over 300 we went, hence no discount. Boo hoo.

That's what the airlines allow, as I posted earlier.

The problem is you people don't know the airline allowances.

The ALSO allow a big bag of food.

I have my suspicions but they don't include a 'big bang' as that *theory* is retarded.

Ever asked yourself who or what made your bang so big?

If not, you've been indoctrinated through consistently repeated lies just as you were through the 'covid' nonsense which you also took at face face value and went along with.

And those who suggest that it was all made by a God are also indoctrinated. Still we'll never know.

It's where it's all going to end which matters more.

You would have to investigate your own particular breaker to confirm.

How would I do that please. How can I pass say 20 amps constantly for a time thru my breaker?

And what would I then know?

A circuit breaker operates on current and time.  The attached graph might help explain.  You would have to investigate your own particular breaker to confirm.

If it is an inverter model then no. If a direct on line non inverter model then it will take considerably more.  Standard Indiction motor theory.  If you do not believe me then this might help.  Just a quick copy paste.  I did say up to 7 they day 5 or 6. It depends on the startup load and how quickly it gets up to speed

 

 

The starting current of the induction motor is about 5 or 6 times the motor full load current. An induction motor of rating 11 KW,22 Amps,440 volts takes a high starting current of about 132 Amps. The current reduces as the motor accelerates towards its base speed or synchronous speed.Feb 25, 2564 BE

How many homes run on 440 volts?

Just realized I made a gaff in my explanation. The controls obviously TRANSFORM the AC to DC to power the control circuits and then the INVERTER converts the DC back to AC to run the compressor. 

 

My wife just showed me a new thing where the air conditioner runs on solar. I said good except we only use ours at night. She looked a bit confused. 

Most çontrol circuits' run on DC, as in your telly, computer  etc etc. The 'power'part is still AC as you say. I doubt whether the DC is çonverted back' to AC to run the compressor.

nduction motor as in the compressor can take around 7 times its running energy to start.

For how long? A few seconds?

My 12000 BTU Mitsu Normal usually takes just over a kilowatt when running. Does that mean SEVEN kilowatts to start up without tripping a 20 amp breaker.

I just did the change at Jomtien one month ago.  

Absolutely need 12 full months of deposits and a letter from your bank showing just your 12 deposits and in the letter there would be a statement stating that the deposits were foreign transfers. I didn't  need to, but best not to touch the ฿ 400K until you complete the switch. 

So you will have to keep the 400k in the bank for 12 months until you have transferred 12 x 40k = 480k. At least you can spend the 40k each month.

OT but evolution is a *theory* based on a completely ridiculous 'big bang' *theory* which only over educated (indoctrinated) autists can even attempt to explain.

So where do you think the Universe and all of us in it, come from please?

you have been scammed. we all have. because we don't realize the extent of the ridiculousness and elaborateness of some of these scams. 

Examples please.

My 3BB was perfect over the weekend, using NORD VPN I was able to watch both Manchester teams qualify for the Cup Final, and the Chinese Grand Prix. All as normal.

I have had "issues" with my 3BB home wi-fi for about 2 weeks - signal dropping out.  At first I thought the problem was with my computer, but I checked my phone and it also had no signal.  Usually the problem lasts for about 10-20 minutes.

Also had problem with 3BB WiFI. Called them and within 2 hours they were here, fitted a new router. No more problems.

I have Nord VPN permanently on for my PC, lappy and phone. All work OK!

Yes, I understand you can't send THB and that it must first be converted to GBP, and unless you were holding a GBP Foreign Currency Account within the BBL app, that conversion would have to be a manual process....I guess? Those things being true, what does the app actually do when it comes to overseas transfers? Just initiate the manual process in the bank?

Yes, I have sent GBP from my Bkk Bank Foreign Currency Account, but the fees were not small. But if it's got to be done, then so be it.

It had to be done with paperwork in the branch.

How could you possibly know that you've never been scammed?  What if someone scammed you but you never found out about it?

Please explain further.

I am 76 years old and have NEVER been scammed, or taken in by Fake News. I use my noddle.
