  1. Certainly something that rhymes with the heading!!
  2. Had the same happen to me in the house I bought here when trying to move the main aicon, so to make sure I swtched the power off at the Distribution unit, thereby supposedly shutting off the power throughout the house. Luckily I used a multimeter to check the cabling going into the a/c unit AND it was still live!! The feed for this aircon unit came straight off the power supply in the road so there was no way to isolate it!! I fixed it, but very carefully I may add!
  3. Sounds like what is currently happening in the USA!!
  4. TACO'd again Donny boy.......you are a clown on the stage for all the world to see and as for his suggestion of easing economic restrictions, he has to be retarded.
  5. And as the saying goes:- "When you've got them by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow".
  6. Well at least she has got something in common with both guys (hooker banging) LOL. Oh wait a minute, there are pics available now which purport to show Melania as a hooker, so where does that leave them all???
  7. What a load of old cobblers; pure drivel from the mouth of an idiot. He achieved NOTHING and showed that he hasn't the brains/nous to be able to negotiate with Putin. He is a complete embarrassment to the US and the world of diplomacy.
  8. I came across a golden oldie on BBC iPlayer last night, called, "In The Heat of the Night" so decided to watch it and was pleased that I did because it was so long ago that I had seen the original, I had forgotten most of it! For those that didn't know, it starred Sidney Poitier and Rod Steiger, amongst others and unfortunately, for me some of the aspects of it mirrored some of what is currently going on in the USA.
  9. Wow, you are certainly paying extremely high prices for everyday wine, unless this is so far out of date that it's meaningless; for example the Casillero del Diablo can now be bought for around 545 baht and as far as I recall the Jacob's Creek Shiraz is under 600 baht a bottle. For the record I buy mine from wholesalers and can select a few to try, quite a few of which I've now included in my regular purchases, but buying from supermarkets is something I rarely do because I get such good prices from my wine importers.
  10. I'll go along with that statement @billd766 and Putin has basically given Trump the middle finger every time they have spoken/met/agreed on anything, but Trump is too stupid to realise that he is being played, time after time. Despite the fact that Trump has threatened MAJOR tariffs and sanctions on Russia, many of them have not been implemented and as per the norm, Trump has TACO'd yet again. Furthermore, the fact that Putin has been allowed to travel to the USA is seen as a victory for many of his supporters, when he is persona non grata as far as many other countries are concerned. This whole "meeting/situation" really is a complete clown show, but the difference here is that the orange one is the clown and the balding one is the villain, but the clown doesn't realise that. I really can't see anything good coming out of this, apart from the fact that the Russians think that they will get part of Ukraine given to them, and the Americans think they will get access to rare earths...... and neither has the "right" to decide or deliberate on this.
  11. And yet more from the orange clown......... Trump’s answer to numbers he doesn’t like is to change them or throw them away. President Donald Trump presented inaccurate crime statistics to justify a federal takeover of DC police. He announced plans for the United States census to stop counting undocumented immigrants. And he ordered the firing of the official in charge of compiling basic statistics about the US economy after a weak jobs report. https://www.nzherald.co.nz/world/trumps-answer-to-numbers-he-doesnt-like-is-to-change-them-or-throw-them-away/BC4URLBT7NHEHDNGFKPWTE47KI/ This month marked an escalation in Trump’s war on data, as he repeatedly tries to undermine statistics that threaten his agenda and distorts figures to bolster his policies. The latest instances come on top of actions the Administration has taken across federal health, climate and education agencies to erase or overhaul data collection to align with the Administration’s agenda and worldview; something I never thought that I would see in my lifetime. But then again I never envisaged a US president as crooked and dumb as this in my worst dreams.
  12. OOPS......another kick in the nuts for the MAGAs:
  13. This will help explain tariffs for the MAGAs...............
  14. Not with the female population though.....pervert!
