  1. If I should end up in any kind of jail my greatest fear would be if they had those squat toilets. With my aged knees I can no longer lift myself up from one of those. I'd have to wait for the next user to come along and just hope he was gentleman enough to pull me up before using it himself
  2. That sounds more promising Though I don't have the funds nor do I want to be deported. Opps! Just realized the "is he? " Wistful thinking perhaps
  3. Than you all for your contribution to this thread. Some serious useful information and some of the usual attempts at humor. Finding yourself in a potential overstay situation can happen to practically anyone, no matter how secure you may think you are today. Nobody plans to get caught on overstay and no it's not always "easy to avoid". No matter how good and secure your situation, one day the Gods will remember you and put a stop to all that complacency. (Loosely quoted from "Out of Africa")
  4. Don't like the sound of that
  5. With the recent crackdown on overstayers the local immigration detention centers must be getting pretty full. Just wondering what they are like. I'm guessing you aren't thrown in a cage with 100 or more others with hardly enough room to sleep on the floor and a stinking hole in the corner as a toilet. So what are the conditions, anyone have actual first hand experience? What do they supply? bed, blanket, towel. Meals, drinking water, Laundry service, change of clothes? Guess you are allowed a phone, are there charging points, how about a laptop, allowed? WiFi ? Can you buy things like soap and toothpaste? and snacks? Visitors allowed? Visit from your Country's Embassy? Just a few things that come to mind. Feel free to add to the list.
  6. Feel good Hindi movie with English Subtitles, I liked it:- 777 Charlie - 2022 - Hindi - IMDB Rating 8.8 https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7466810/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_2_nm_1_q_777%20Charlie%20(2022) Dharma is stuck in a rut with his negative and lonely lifestyle and spends each day in the comfort of his loneliness. A pup named Charlie enters his life and gives him a new perspective towards it. Undoubtedly, Charlie is the frontrunner in making one watch the film. The story is simple and even predictable sometimes, but Charlie makes it beautiful with its lovely performance, especially in emotional scenes. Besides, Rak<deleted> Shetty justifies his role.
  7. Unfortunately that didn't work. First off I started to unscrew the grey plastic cap, as it seemed the easiest thing to do, and checked it was full of water. Bit unnecessary as the tank from which the pump feeds is higher than the pump so that shouldn't be a problem, but checked anyway. Next had a look under the grey elongated cover. (Check Valve) but there was no sort of adjusting screw, just a round check valve. There is a pressure switch in a round cylindrical unit, but according to the manual touching that would bring down upon me the wrath of Zeus, so left that alone. While I was at it I also took off the Bladder tank and shook out the water. Non of that worked to fix the pressure delay problem, so guess I'll just have to live with it. No real problem for me but it's a bit like the old fluorescent lights that always flickered before turning on. You get used to it, but when LED's came along with instant on, who wants to keep the old fluorescent. Anyways thanks for you help
  8. Cheers Raindancer, sounds like some useful things to try Will have a go at it tomorrow Cheers
  9. Recently my 15 year old Hitachi WM-P 300 finally gave up so replaced it with a new Hitachi WM-P 200xx. The pump works Ok except it takes several seconds to put out full pressure when turning on a tap. What happens is that when turning on a tap there is a low pressure flow of water and the suddenly seems like the pump kicks in and we get the full pressure. This never used to happen with the old pump where we had full steady pressure right from the moment the tap was turned on. I've had a go at Googling but haven't found an answer to cover this particular problem. Lots of "Adjusting the pressure switch" but am reluctant to do that as the pump is only a few weeks old. Could be the pressure tank, perhaps? Any ideas or preferably a solution would be most welcome.
  10. Yea! Same here Got to find some way to check my balances without going to the bank every time
  11. Something that worked for me before:- It's a shampoo so easy to use. Just shampoo your lower regions and leave for about 10 minutes before rinsing off. You can also use any of the other stuff mentioned, but I found this shampoo was the easiest and least messy way of doing things.
  12. Give this a try:-
  13. It's a world wide conspiracy by the mobile phone companies to get us to buy more phones

  16.

Would it work with the SCB App?

  19. Sad day for movie fans RARBG was one of the best Torrent sites having many choice of file size and providing subs to practically all movies and TV programs. Don't think there is a comparable site available at the moment. Thanks RARBG for providing hours and hours of great viewing RARBG Bye Page Hello guys, We would like to inform you that we have decided to shut down our site. The past 2 years have been very difficult for us - some of the people in our team died due to covid complications, others still suffer the side effects of it - not being able to work at all. Some are also fighting the war in Europe - ON BOTH SIDES. Also, the power price increase in data centers in Europe hit us pretty hard. Inflation makes our daily expenses impossible to bare. Therefore we can no longer run this site without massive expenses that we can no longer cover out of pocket. After an unanimous vote we've decided that we can no longer do it. We are sorry ???? Bye
