  1. I went to the town hall today to get some free mosquito lavicide as the area around my house floods. There are also some old fish breeding tanks and various ornamental water features that have fallen into disarray. I was told that aedes mosquitoes ( the dangerous ones) don't breed in this type of water and the lavicide will not kill any other species of mosqito. They recommended filling the land to stop the flooding or concrete it over as mosquitoes don't like concrete. I eventually got bored of listening to her rubbish and insisted that I wanted some and i was given a little bit  by a very unhelpful woman.

    But before he gave me my passport back, he said that from now on it is also necessary to provide copies of the front and back of the chanote for my rented house (or first and second pages, never having seen a chanote I don’t really know what they consist of)

    Are you sure he didn't mean the Tabien barn of the property you are renting. The first 2 pages show the owners name.

    Your water pump is broken.

    But the engine temperature doesn't rise and there's no obvious leaking when stationary. 

    The gauge wont register if there isn't any water flowing over it. Get a hand held IR thermometer and check the temperature of the top and bottom hoses. Expect to see a temp of about 80c when warm.

  4. Hi, i have a couple of duff cells in my ni-cd drill battery pack and need to get it fixed. Do all of the Amorn centers offer this service? The closest one to me is Branch 69 Ramkhamhaeng - Address : 2/1 Soi. Ramkamhaeng167 Ramkamhaeng Rd. Saphansung Bangkok (Minburi).

    Thanks.

    No they don't - it has to be collected personally.

    Getting your passport

    Your passport will be delivered to the UK Visa Application Centre where you applied.

    They will contact you - using the details on your application form - when your passport is ready to collect.

    You must collect in person. If you’re unable to, someone else can go on your behalf.

    You must bring your existing passport as photo ID.

    "Don't pay the fine". All well and good unless the police get their act together and start linking unpaid fines to other government departments. Extension of stay refused due to unpaid fine? I worked in a country that stopped you leaving if you had unpaid traffic fines. 

    The car is actually in my wife's name, so no worries there.

     

    Also, i have bought several cars that the owner has given me the paperwork and told me to go and register it myself. It is common practice here.
