  1. I had a trickle charger connected for 10 years or more, when the ride was locked up for the winter or not used. The one l bought trickled milliamp's so nooooo probs. thumbsup.gif

    Are you going to tell me if the electric supply suddenly jumps to 300volts it won't cause any damage also what if lightning strikes it won't flow into the car system and fry it.

    The gadget had a fail safe feature. In fact all my hotrod chums had one as the rides saw little use.

    Hey, be careful when you get out of YOU ride in case lightning strikes eh. laugh.png

  2. I like French. There is a different word for everything.

    So what's the French word for masturbation? And more importantly, did you know masturbation can cause blindness?

    Yes, it's Spankdemonkey. So l was told. giggle.gif ......................smile.png

    You don't spank monkeys, you hang them. Especially if they are french spies.

    SC

    OK, perhaps it was Handdeshandy. thumbsup.gif
  3. If the Thai labour costs were the same as British labour costs there would be zero vehicle production in Thailand.

    A long thread to point out the obvious eh cmk?

    As l said way back.

    Same as UK ''call centres'', many moved to China, India, Malaysia etc. One reason, labour costs. Rang a few times and didn't have a clue what they were saying and visa versa. laugh.png

  4. I knowwwwwwww, my point was the UK provided the best piston engine for the job at the time. biggrin.png

    Though the fuel injected inverted V12 of the opposition was cool. laugh.png

    Since you brought it up what is your point relative to Thai auto production?

    Weeeeeeeell, hmmmmmmmmmm, nothing, BUT my point is Thailand has not developed anything. They are assembling other folks stuff, your UK WAR is crap. YOUR Thai engineering stuff is crap. Who designs the roads, oooop's think the Germans are owed some cash for that, who built the airport, who designs and builds anything. ??????????

    Sorry but you are going on about a country that is doing stuff for OTHERS because of cheap labour, plain and simple, same as India and China. China is now moving on with folk having a better lif,e BUT l think manufacturing will move back to home lands in the future as these countries get nearer to the wests standard of life and costs are put on the west.

  5. I'm amazed that this thread is till going strong..... running longer than a Model T Ford, and more viscious than rats in a sack...CMK, you certainly have some staying power. I might not agree with you, but I certainly respect you!

    Did you know they used Ford Model T engines in the Franco Thai war (1940) in the tanks that helped to defeat the French.

    Did you know the UK Merlin engine HAD to be used in the USA built P51 fighter (1944/5) cos the USA motor couldn't do the job. whistling.gif

    Maybe you want to look up Packard V-1650 I believe they made 55,000 of them.

    I know, the US made the Rolls Royce V12 under license to fore fill wars demands. US Allison could not do the job.
  6. Salmond was disrespectful to UK fighting forces. End of story for me. sad.png

    You can't get much more disrespectful to UK fighting forces than sending them overseas to lose their lives on the back of a pack of lies. Don't think Salmond was responsible for that.

    A soldier DOES what he is told to do. A soldier has NOTHING to do with government decisions..He does his job. UNDERSTAND. rolleyes.gif

    No need to shout, i'm not some squaddie on the parade ground. My point had nothing to do with obeying orders, i accept your argument on that. It was about politicians showing disrespect which is something you started. I maintain it is the height of disrespect to send fighting forces overseas to put their lives on the line on the basis of a pack of lies. I would have hoped that anyone with half a brain would see that. UNDERSTAND.rolleyes.gif

    You still don't understand a soldiers LOT. He doesn't sit on his bunk reading whats gone on in Parliament and how he must respond, he cleans his weapon, doesn't give a shit who is in Parliament, he does his job, and Salmond undermined the soldiers integrity.
  7. My Old Man fought side by side with the Aussies in WW2 and said they were straight up folks ,and time has proven him right. Wish all you belly-achers could funnel that energy into producing something more than hot air, and not gripe about people stepping up and helping with high tech training. This will be a mutual benefit for all involved and needed in that area of ignorant violence! What are your countries doing to help our Thailand?

    What is your Thailand doing to help your Thailand when available money to improve life strangely disappears ?

  8. It's Not Unreasonable To Look After The Thai In-Laws and buy them a nice fish for dinner?

    Oh My Cod! I have had enough of fish and do net want anyone to mention fish in my herring. I think I would skate away if anyone put a fish dish at my plaice at the table.

    I think I will go and sing a song "Salmon chanted evening......." whistling.gif

    Would suggest you do the Conger Eel at a nice Plaice, have a Dab of something but please don't look a Pollock eh.laugh.png
