That would be a good idea.

 

Why NOT?

 

Edit: I do understand it now, because when the water stops flowing into the tank, the tank would then be automatically be drained as the overflow is on the bottom (when both valves are open). It would work if the Sun shines but NOT when it stops shinning ????

 

Easy solution this, will ask SWMBO what she thinks of it ????

 

Sorry my wording is a bit muddled there.

But as we are brainstorming it opens up a few different idea's.

This may be a silly question and apologies if already answered above. But: here it is:

 

Doing my 90 days on line report has proven- for me at least- to be mostly trouble free and easy.

Now I have a re-entry permit. So If I go abroad and return that resets my 90 days.

However, what if I simply want to keep to the 90 day on line dates and ignore the trip away?

Is that possible or would it cause problems?
 

I did it that way and was approved.(Khon Kaen)

But i have noticed i haven't received the email reminder and it's due again in 10 days.

Just thinking out loud here.

 

One problem maybe, because the Pump is that strong wouldn't that cause the water to come from under the lid as well.

 

When the Sun is really out,  you can hear the water flowing in when standing outside the house and that is a good 20-30 meters from the Tank!

 

But no time to implement this is A) The guys laying the pipes / doing the work are not available B) We are already leaving in 1 or 2 days ????

Yes you would need to do a bucket test to get size of overflow right.

Your phone calls are best idea till you get back.

It is fun to experiment on these projects.

Myself i would make the inlet in the bottom but it would also be the outlet with two valves.

T-piece and riser back at lake for overflow.

Restriction being you can't use the tank while filling.

Saying that if he can't remember to turn pump off he might get confused with two valves.

Can't you put a t-piece and riser on inlet side so when tank is nearly full it flows out the riser.

Actually thinking a bit more about it,you would need the inlet to tank at the bottom for it to work.

So you would still need another hole in the tank which in that case easier just to put overflow hole at the top.

Holesaw a hole, 2" male and female fittings and a small packet of epoxy glue.

Can't you put a t-piece and riser on inlet side so when tank is nearly full it flows out the riser.

I'm not sure. We currently have several regional trade groups that operate by different rules. NAFTA covers the America's whilst an up and coming one in Asia involves East Asian countries, China, Japan and Australia. Europe of course has its own trade group in the EU. This is a step down from total globalization, one of the purposes of the Asian trade group is to avoid using USD as a means of settling trade bills. I do think Asia wants to get away from Dollar dominance and part of that means not allowing US control of the region. It's complex.

I would say green energy will take a huge hit just from the amount of mining products foundry's in China.

The East operating to its own economic and trade framework and growing at one speed whilst the West is operating to a different set of rules, and growing at a different rate of knots.

So higher prices for consumers all round.

Escalating war in Ukraine could trigger a Chinese grab for Taiwan as the United States turns the economic screws on Beijing and tries to engineer a two-speed world economy by isolating authoritarian countries under its new Indo-Pacific framework.

What does a two-speed world economy look like for the average citizen?

If global corporations lost 240 billion pulling out of Russia,the amount would be staggering from China.

So that must be a portable a/c in the picture.

Did you get to feel the notes before going in the missus purse.????(joking)

I can tell a few yarns of guys around here who used to go to the cattle market the night before sales with the transporter..

That was around 2006 on,big party,lots of loaw khow,lots of gambling and add 30 baht for a look at a snatch with a cigarette lighter.

Problems started the next day when the cattle were sold to pay for the night before and the guys returned home with no baht and no cow.

That's when i realised why women here were always handing the Thai blokes money.

I was never allowed to go the night before and maybe that's why they are so hard to find.????

Michael Knowlesism should be eradicated.

 

The Daily Wire is such a dumpster fire.

 

Mr. Knowles is going to great lengths to, somewhat ineffectually, defend his "statements".

 

The extreme right seems to be looking for another hill to defend, after having lost on marriage equality and gay rights.

 

Who will they go after next?

 

Why not just treat people equally and with respect, and allow everyone to seek out their own happiness?

 

 

 

 

 

He is not the only one speaking out as it filters through to business.

It is very clear in the article the USA sent back women's rights.

Why.because they can.

At the back of my mind also is the saturation of the riceland around us with cattle and young calves, a dramatic increase in stock levels to me facilitates a buyers market as we are full to brim maybe better to shift a couple now 

There must be a weekly cattle market in the district,pop along to gauge prices.

Talk to a few individual sellers and keep away from the guys with big truck loads as they tend to do the market circuit.they will buy at a lower price as have more overheads.

You might even see the buyers who came to your farm in operation.

It's a good morning out.

Cool so you confirm you were the one who brought up chickens and what they consume. Frogs on the other hand can in a natural setting consume increased levels of estrogen released into the water and as a result change gender. Fascinating. Unlike chickens who remain as they are.

Well got me there,attrazine helps them too.

did you not bring chickens into it? I brought up some facts on frogs as a comparison. Explain how that's scrapping the barrel, I've got no interest in what you drive by the way.

Putting aside your wit, it is entirely logical that growth hormones fed to the food people eat wind up in people.

 

The accelerated physical maturing of children is a fact.

 

Physical maturity and brain/emotional maturity are not the same thing.
