  1. The pic in the op shows the delivery rider filling his drink from the CocaCola dispenser.
  2. Just going by what was described in the second paragraph in the original post. "mentioning that even when the staff voiced their disapproval, the rider continued undeterred."
  3. Hi thanks for your comment. The ideal place, for sunlight, for our proposed solar carport is about 40-50 metres from a connection into our house. Is this too far for a grid-tie inverter or not a problem? Please excuse my ignorance.
  4. Thanks for the reply and very envious of your setup. Really like your vids, have been binge watching waiting for daughter at school today.
  5. Haha I found that topic about 5 minutes after I posted mine. Yes it's useful thanks.
  6. Hi, last June we bought a Neta V for the school run which is about 120 kms per day. We can charge it overnight on the TOU tariff. I would like the option to be able to charge our car during the day using solar. Garden space is not an issue so I'd like to build a car port with a roof of solar panels. As a solar novice I'm asking for advice on what will be required, assuming panels, inverter and charger for starters. If anyone has any pics of a similar setup that would be great. Thanks for reading Ed.
  7. He wasn't being denied a drink of water he was asked by KFC not to refill his drinks bottle with CocaCola from their machine from which their customers have to purchase if they want a drink.
  8. Pretty sure the extra evidence will have several more zeros at the end.
  9. Good news as we live in Phanomtuan. The local village supply goes awol with the beginning of dry season every year and doesn't return until the beginning of the rainy season.
  10. Surely moving on would mean the winners of the last election being allowed to form a Government.
  11. Yeah, Move Forward to win in a landslide swiftly followed by disbandment and another military installed junta.
  12. One of wifeys friends recently retired after most of her life working for the Police. She speaks openly of the corruption amongst it's ranks and that there is absolutely nothing individual officers can do about it as it is so pervasive.
  13. Well after 2 attempts customer service managed to stop the 'verify account' requests so I attempted a small transfer and lo and behold I received an error message saying there was a problem with my account. Customer service sorted that out after an email so I had one more go at a small transfer.....'Please verify your account'....what a crock of <deleted>e. Avoid.
  14. What a shambles their app is. Went through the verification process, identity confirmed, tried to use it and need to confirm my identity and address again. Think I'll give it a miss.
  15. How about a parade for Saint Jude, the Patron Saint of Lost Causes?
  16. Here in Kanchanaburi the air quality has been absolutely dreadful for weeks. Sugarcane burning goes on and seems even worse than the last couple of years when it improved with more use of the mechanical cutters but crazily we're not seeing so many of those this year. Rice fields are going up in flames everywhere in anticipation of the canals opening and being able to grow a new crop and flames seem to be devouring every hillside for miles around. Thoroughly depressing and nobody with the power to actually solve the problem gives a flying <deleted>.
  17. "Thai motorists demanded police take action against two foreign men riding electric unicycles, or e-unicycles, on a crowded road in the northern province of Chiang Mai." Yeah, traffic looks nose to tail in that pic, gridlocked even.
  18. 870,000 pieces worth 8.3 million bht is less than 10 bht per piece.
  19. If only his grandmother was Chinese, there wouldn't be any so called controversy then.
  20. Or this one. https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/dramatic-ge-engine-explosion-on-boeing-767-poses-puzzle-for-investigators/
  21. And how long ago was that incident and how many since?
  22. Years ago, before I met my Thai wife, I had a Chinese girlfriend who was taking a Business course at University in the UK. Her dad was a board member of a large construction company and every so often sent his daughter a very substantial amount of money to her in the UK for her studies. This arrived by way of a courier, a stewardess, with a major airline. My girlfriend would arrange to meet her at her stopover hotel in Heathrow Airport and collect her money. I'd imagine connected individuals are still using methods like this.
  23. "....projections suggesting that the year-end figures will likely mirror those of the previous year..." Hardly a surge then if figures are similar to the previous year when visa free travel for Chinese wasn't available.
