Rants and rages

What terems of reference, and the next question is can they read them if they have any?

Queen's Regulations states that ignorance is no excuse...

Another rant.

Those pointless BiB checkpoints on the highway.

There's one on the way to Nong Khai. You're giving it max chat down the road in the outside lane and all of the sudden there's a BiB lane closure and a silly checkpoint that slows everyone down.

Why?

I can deal with Wua and Kwai crossing the road, even dumbass kids six atop a Honda Nova with no lights on. But not LOS's Finest flexing their civil power muscle for no reason.

They don't do it on the Bill or Hill Street Blues.

I got a beef

Why is it every time I go visit Udon the bht slips ever closer to that 60bht to the pound mark, up till last week holding steady about 65, I now gotta pay 60 pence for a large Leo next Tuesday and Gas 50 pence a litre.............. some one up there hates me

Maybe He's punishing you for all those atrocities you committed during the Spanish Civil War.

I dont think it was that,

I suspect it was to do with when I nicked 10 pence out of the collection plate at our village church when I was a lad.

MUNICIPAL WATER PRESSURE

is it just me and my little village, or do all the villages past the ring road get the same treatment, no water during awake hours, as it is more important to provide water to the inner ring road/businesses of udon, which of course should have the priority, or better yet......................try some F'g city planning. hmm, not enough water, not enough electrice, no problem, keep building.

seems only time i can get water is after things close up in town, awake for some strange reason, and not that excellent one, at 3 ish today, so filled the tanks, well, almost, at about 6ish when udon city woke up, well, i'm just a outer ring rd peasant, we don't need water. scum sucking maggots.

oh yea, i feel better.

I guess I wont be getting too close to you next time i see you La.

The good old days. I remember them well.

noticed that exchange rate myself, as this definitely needed a bump up, a place to express one's self.

little lady called the water place today, and vented, after i told her the BS excuse they gave her yesterday had nothing to do with us. fixing pipe headed toward ban phu, complete opposite direction from our village . the she fessed up, pretty much, tough sh*t , the closer to the source, well, obviously more pressure. though strangely, water is on now, which is rare.

Of course yuo mean pumping to your tank Right cause yuo ain't gong et none in first homes, if you don't.

Just had to join the rant. looked looked like fun

Of course yuo mean pumping to your tank Right

barely enough pressure to go up 1.5 meters, would never make over 2.5 meters. 3 tanks finally filled. 4500 liters i think, takes 4-5 hrs to fill, that's sad.

I wont be getting too close to you

luckily didn't run out, though a great reason not to do the dishes or wash car.

The sad part first you pump it in then you pump out. It's been about three years since First homes had enough presure to fill an above ground tank. Lots of below ground tanks in the area, I think they just take the water supply. So above ground you got to use you pump. It's only went our completly a few times in four years. You can tell water trucks are happy. Especially they run across one of us Blue Eyed Devils

Ya I know but yuo can't tell when the float valve sticks on one of those babies and you end with 1000's of baht on your water bill.

Boy I think I'm really getting into the swing of things here

This ranting stuff is kind of fun

The sad part first you pump it in then you pump out.....................can't tell when the float valve sticks

guess i'm lucky then, pressure fills tank, then pump in house.............float, no thanks, if it can go wrong, it will here, just a matter of time, and if i'm out and about, for a month or 2

Sure glad I'm inside the ring-road. My tank fills all by itself every night without a pump... and it is located on the ROOF OF MY 3-STORY TOWNHOUSE !! My biggest problem is remembering to turn on the valve so the tank will fill during the night and turning it off in the morning so when I turn on the pump for the house, it doesn't pump up to the roof. Actually, we usually have enough pressure to satisfy our needs on the first floor with the exception of running the washing machine... then we run the pump. The tank on the roof only supplies water to the 2nd and 3rd floors, the 1st floor is only supplied via the water main from the street.
