Yea ... mine (USA) also, and it's almost impossible to do. Only say 'almost' as I try 'never to say never' ... but ... simply not going to happen. Not in a Republic, of 50 different states. Election every 2/4 yrs, so no need to tolerate anyone for long time. Plus those 100 million gun toting maniacs, kind of outnumber the military.

My installer charges 20k (I think) for registration to feed in. Says he's one of the cheapest, which I can't verify, but not a sales pitch, knowing my system doesn't quality, and me, not wanting to have anything to do with PEA/MEA. Reason being, the 20k, he has to pay independent contractors/engineer for the certification to satisfy PEA/MEA. Says some installers, charge up to 50k, whether exaggerated or not, or what size system charge is for, I don't know. But the 20k doesn't sound too much of a stretch. Especially when there's money to be gained, that "you need, or else" mind set. On a 5kW system, how much extra will you be generating. May be a while for that ROI. We're using 15-20 a day now, and it's not even hot out yet. We've produced 49kW, but that's 8kW inverter, w/ 18 (.540w) panels. Actually used shy of 31kW and fed the grid shy of 27kW. Most sites state, 5kW will generate 15-20/25kW (?) a day, I think. Doesn't leave a whole lot to export.

I hope he's not the Minister of Health, with that all important 'engineering degree' ... ... everything is wrong with that photo ... and the farang is the dirty one for not accepting ????

As stated, if you have to ask, you already know the answer. Consider the assoc/maintenance fee is divide among owners, and if you are 1 of the few ... hmm If having lifts, as suggested, make sure you're on the 1st/2nd floor.

You must be Thai, so you wouldn't notice. And you don't have to be at a tourist destination to get scammed. I'll walk in front of the wife when at the fresh market, or any vendor where prices aren't posted. Tell her what I want, and she'll go back to buy it, as too many times in the past, I've been charged more than her. This even at local market. Sometimes attempted to charge me considerably more, 50%-double to the price. Or I'll wait for a Thai to buy the same, make sure I'm standing next to them, and simply say I want the same, after I saw them pay. Easy enough. Also asking in Thai, how much, helps, then they realize you're not a noob. To state it doesn't happen simply points out your extreme bias or ignorance. As pointed out, Nat Park & hosp are prime examples & sadly, Govt endorsed ????

Along with old folks of all race, religion, sexual preference, nationality, gender & size. Along with young & mid aged folks with all the labels above. World is full of A-holes, what's new. Do we really need another label. "Thainess Matters" ... TLM.com .org .net Donations accepted ... I could use a nice Cat docked at Phuket

Damn spell checker got me again ... ????

I'm wondering why you didn't just buy the filter and change it yourself, especially since already having the oil.

Don't know about Patts, but here in PKK Changing from mine to hers is easy, anywhere ... ????

Just got back after putting a few kms on the cars, just around town, and TBH, windows up, AC on, I don't bother with the radio, and I didn't hear much of any vehicles on the road. Except the overly loud exhausts. Most scooter are very quiet from inside the car. That's MG ZS, which is kind of quite itself, unless accelerating. Other entry level cars, our previous Vios & Mazda2 were not so quiet. Certainly not enough noise for me to notice them coming up in my blind spots where I may have on oops with them while turn & cutting them off/knocking them over. An e-scooter make no difference 95% of the time. I drive with my eyes, not my ears ... choose wisely ????

If not their fault, they're actually in the hospital because some idiot didn't look before making a maneuver. People that drive using their mirrors only and don't turn head to look, assuming nobody in their blind spots. Or when turn head to look, using 1 eye, thus can not judge distance or speed of approaching vehicles. Do people hear every car, and yet, same type of accident involving the same idiots. When driving if you use your ears instead of 2 eyes ... nuff said

Mines 65", and 75 would be better. Depends on the room and how far/close you sit to it.. About 3.5 meters away for us. I also use it as my laptop monitor, and great for editing my wildlife photos, and I sit comfortably 2m away. When I see larger TVs when at HomePro, ours looks small. No, I'm not upsizing anytime in the future. It's only a TV, low priority cost vs enjoyment.

First download GRAB app, follow the instructions. https://help.grab.com/passenger/en-id/360001960908-How-to-create-Grab-account

Also discounts for same item, if you buy online, which is really odd, as you can go to their store, get hands on, order online, get discount, and pick up at same store, or they'll deliver for free. Then add your 'payment discount' if qualifying. Bought a few items like that. Then use you HP card, and get points. Got to love it

Got our last one at HomePro ... excellent Also look online. Just missed the 10-10 sales. Another 11-11, on manufacturer's 'flagship' site on LAZ, or their own sites.

Don't know about the 'creams' but I actually like the taste of Dutch Mills' UHT version of whole milk over the fresh. Also when buying, you really do need to read the label. As 1 barista cream I looked at, had less fat content that Dutch Mill whole milk. I just use milk, and it froths up rather nice, and I can get soft peaks, sort of, if I don't stop. Sure I'm sacrificing a bit of flavor by not using heavier creams, but like the flavor of the coffee to come thru also. I prefer black or a frothy flat white.

Have you actually searched for them, as plenty here, at brick & mortar shops or online. Buddha helps those that help themselves. Not familiar with 'hammer or Sherlock', so a photo might help others search for you.

I lived in Thai villages, actually outside of them, most of my time here in Thailand. Love the quiet solitude, fresh air, and the varied wildlife, aside from venomous snakes. First couple houses, about 20ish minutes from metro. Present house, about 5 minutes from 'town'. Still rural and no neighbors for 100s of meter, and just the way I like it. I self entertain easily. I think what you're describing is visiting, living with your partners family ... no thanks.

Govt cheese and food stamps, sadly, I remember it well. On the flip side, I remember the hockey pucks, hi end filet mignon. destin for restaurants and jumbo shrimps. They seem to fall off the truck every week ???? We ate really good. I guessed 8% on another thread, I reckon I wasn't too far off. Good thing it's an election year. Tell my brother inflation is that low and he'll laugh at you, but I'll take it.
