Yes, maybe 20 years old. I forget ....'but it seems like yesterday.' Of course wifey wants a new one, while I want to fix them.

Maybe convert them to ebikes?

Fixing things is good. Parts aren't too expensive, but it helps if you have a competent bike mechanic who will strip it down and give good service.

Good to know that my "IPTV PROVIDER COMPANY" sent me a "good example"!  ???? 

 

☺️

I think those bikes are closer to twenty years old ????

DiamondBack Response SE: Shimano Alivio RD-MC18 Rear Derailleur. Maybe something like the SHIMANO Altus M315 as gear shifters, in case they aren't working.

GT Talera seems something of a mish-mash.

Start at 3000.

https://www.lazada.co.th/products/xiaomi-redmi-9c-364gb4gb128gb-global-version-1-i4104325403-s16048715172.html

The 9A is cheaper, but only has a rear camera. But the price of the 3GB version is closer to the 9 price anyway. So better the 9C.

Pathetic excuse for a bike shop. They should order the parts in for you.

You'll probably have to replace the whole chain set. Rear derailleur, chain and back cassette/freewheel.

Try Thaibikeshop on Shopee for parts: https://shopee.co.th/ของแท้-ศูนย์ไทย-ตีนผีหลัง-ตีนผีจักรยาน-SHIMANO-TOURNEY--RDTY300--6-7-SPEED-i.29792.19713436324

Alternatively; https://www.lazada.co.th/products/shimano-tourney-tx800-78-ty500-sgs-67-mtb-part-i2279058202-s7658520350.html

Check with the shop to see if the part is compatible.

Diamondback is the name of the company, not the bike model. Talera is the name of the bike model, not the company. GT Talera?

Your pictures and descriptions aren't that helpful ???? 

Reading this makes me feel old, as working with fractions was rudimentary education. I was already on advanced algebra at ten years old.

A different time and a different standard.

Not to steal the topic, but anyone know a good Mirror / streaming app for Firestick.  The one everyone recommends online is now a subscription fee.

I really just wish firestick didn't kill browsers, then I could just stream straight thru the stick.

Confused. 

Kill Browsers? 

You mean this:

What issue exactly are you experiencing and how, exactly, would you stream if you weren't having the issue?

Will an SRT file have a selection of subs or do I need to find a specific sub aka Thai?

Thanks all for the replies so far guys

 

And I assume I need a player capable of advanced options with subs re speed synch compensation etc. Does VLC player have this?

You'll need to find specific. The languages covered will be stated in the description.

There are plenty of Fire Sticks for sale on Lazada:

OP. You can find plenty of walk through videos on Youtube to help you set up a Fire Stick.

Your IPTV provider should be able to help you. They will have to give you sign in details anyway and will tell you which IPTV app you will need to download.

Plus you will need to sign up for a Google account to access the Google Play Store which is basically a place for downloading any particular apps you might want.

 

Some examples: TuneIN ( an app for listening to internet radio),  Netflix or Amazon Prime apps if you subscribe to those services. Though you will need a VPN to get the best out of those, but that is another matter. Maybe a weather or news app. It all depends on your personal interests.

I transfer direct from my Nat West account to my Kasikorn without any problems.

Kasikorn never charge me anything and Nat West is free unless I want same day transfer when it costs £15.

That's because NatWest are ripping you on the exchange rate. Wake up!

Unfortunately, it doesn't matter how much you love her, you have to move on.

Your relationship would never be the same again and hey/your actions during this time will be pulled up at every single argument.

 

I wouldn't just change the locks, that doesn't stop her from coming back and banging on the door all hours.

Also, if her name is on the lease/house, then she has every right to just get them changed again when the OP is out.

 

Moving would be my way, new SIM, all contact details changed, etc.

Another way would to bring back a bar girl to stay for a few nights, once the neighbours start gossiping about it, she will steer clear for fear of losing face.

 

 

Bringing bar girls home won't help his divorce proceedings....

You still like to blame her.

I don't say she is innocent. But if she would have been happy with you then she probably would not have changed her life so radially - or back to what it maybe was years ago.

Obviously you can continue to blame her, and maybe divorce and find a new girl. And then maybe one day that new girl "misbehaves". 

Don't you think it might be better that you think about now what you did wrong and what you can do better? Maybe, if you think hard enough, you will find one or the other part of your behavior which can be improved. Do that! And then, over time, you will be a better man. And maybe one day, you will find a "better" woman.

But don't think you will be able to change overnight. It's more than just not drinking anymore. Maybe use the next year to improve yourself. If you do it right, then at the end of the year you will ask yourself: Why didn't I do that much earlier?

What's the point of this post? 

I can say that I am constantly improving myself, but that cannot compensate for someone who does not improve at all.

Where does he blame her? He is just describing events from his perspective. He is not inside her head.

Do you imagine that she is not blaming him?

Of course, he can improve, we all can. If he knew how at the time, he would have already done it. We live and learn. Get off his back! ☺️

He just needs to get back to good mental health through gentle exercise and mediation. Forget about getting mixed up with useless women.

nope

 

Yeah, I am quite shocked at the nastiness, actually.  Especially being in serious mental pain for over a month being home alone working and trying to get the thought of what she is out doing every day and night out of my head.  Nightmares, insomnia, the whole 9 yards.  This will definitely I post anything personal on this forum and I already tried to remove it, but can't.  Oh well, others like to hurt people to make themselves feel better, I suppose.  Almost everyone is focusing on me admitting I would drink too much sometimes, then calling me a drunkard that got kicked to the kerb.  A lot of illiterate Saints here, I suppose.  But a great thanks to the few sensible comments as well as your advice.  I appreciate and agree with it.

You have to change your lifestyle and routines. In other words, if you don't do anything different, you won't feel any different.

Whilst you think that it's her making you feel bad, in fact it's you making yourself feel bad. You just got yourself tangled up in a bad situation, which became your normal.

Now you have to make yourself feel differently. Make physiological changes. 

Think of it as you being frozen in time, reliving a bad moment over and over again. It's you doing that. Producing tension within yourself.

You have to learn to let it all go. It doesn't matter as to whose fault it is. It matters whether you maintain optimal health or not. If you are suffering and thinking the same thing over and over again, then you are not doing the simplest of things to maintain your good health.

Change your routines. Swimming as soon as you get up. Walks with focus on breathing.  Soon those tensions and bad thoughts will go and be replaced with other thoughts. That will be you moving on. Don't go back.

ePacket has a weight limit of 2kg

 

Otherwise just ship by ePacket. The parcels arrive relatively fast. ePacket and EMS are loaded in the same plane anyway. No difference whatsoever. 

Actually, not. 2kg to everywhere but the U.K. 5 kg to the U.K.
