Ron19 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Fixed it for you Ron. Did you forget to use the Image icon to insert the image?Thanks for fixing that for me.I normally upload to Picasa and do any post editing there,I then upload to Google+ and then copy and post to thaivisa.That method works fine normally but today it's gone haywire.Internet explorer has disappeared off the face of the earth but the ie icon remained in the task bar and when I click on that,Google search comes up instead and in Bulgarian language and there seems to be some association with a programme " HAO 123 " Which is hiding somewhere in the computer. I am working my way through things with the next thing being a thorough scan.By the way it is only on one computer with Google Chrome being the search engine on both machines.Unfortunatly most of my images are on the one that has the problem.

Popular Post Dancealot Posted June 29, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2014 @Pigeonjake, thanks for your flowers and chickes. The last chicken in the basket is very funny. I'm still out of likes. @Ron, sounds to me like you need a personal assistent. Back to the chickens. These are the 3 of 6 who would finally be eaten by the farm dog. Instead of eating them all at once he eats them one by one. Question: Does anyone know if it's easy to sell Rhode Island Reds (RIR) or White Leghorns chicks nowadays in Thailand? Do you know people who are interested? Thanks. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post shaggy1969 Posted June 29, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2014 @ Jake would like to second what DAL said about your flower and bird photos mate,also good luck with your 2 gilts/sows mate. I hope that the both deliver large and healthy litters mate.BTW,my Missus is the same regarding flowers mate,hardly surprising coming from someone named Kulab (translates into Rose).Once we do get some more land sorted a small section will be used for farming Orchids. @ RBH Great to see the Google maps photos mate and what you have achieved over the years through hard work and perseverance !!! @ DAL Love the recent images that you have been posting.You are really doing Us and that new camera proud !!! Re....Road Island Reds and White Leghorns chicks,are those Jotham79's? a link to his thread can be found here for anyone interested in purchasing some pure breed chicks. @ David Here's one just for You mate because You asked.Junior practicing on His smile Nueng,song,sam..... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post shaggy1969 Posted June 29, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 29, 2014 A few photos here of a family we visited whilst they were busy preparing their harvested rubber sap into the setting trays. Mother setting out the metal setting trays whilst her Son unloaded the days rubber harvest from his motorbike. The next step was to add a jug of water to each tray followed by two jugs of rubber sap (I would each jug held 1.5 litre) Mother then mixed the water and rubber sap solution for a couple of minutes and removed any air bubbles that had floated to the surface.The bubbles are removed anytime to avoid any air pockets being in the final solid block of rubber. Once half of the trays had been mixed and skimmed the Mother then started to add the Formic acid ( a hardener) to the first trays whilst her Son continued the first step of mixing the water and rubber solution on the other side of the room. A repeat of the first mixing step was repeated with the added Formic acid and re- skimmed of any bubbles for a final time. Unfortunately the hardening process takes a couple of hours to work and we weren't able to see the final stage in the production.Maybe we will go back for another visit to the farm in the future to watch how they turn the slabs into rubber sheets.None the less it was nice to see how a family works together as a team and it was also very educational to see their operation from start to almost finish. All done,just time needed for the hardening to take place. Some of the previous days rubber sheets drying in the sun. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scunner Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 ^^ excellent reportage there shaggy, brings it too life, makes one appreciate the hard work that goes into the things we all take for granted. Btw, why add water to the sap? Does this enable the removal of air, or is it a perquisite for the formic acid catalysed polymerisation? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
