It'll come back mate, you'll see... (or maybe not up there)

And when it does, the shops will be empty and the prices double and it won't be me with my ballsack welded to my inner thigh

I thought 330ml was the perfect size. These beer companies don't



The kronenburg comes in 250ml now

Even you could manage that without a condom

I had something altogether different in mind.

Nice fake woodburner, have you got the sheepskin to go in front of it.

Hmm, only if you are working it up a bird akimbo on a pool table seeing how quick she can fill it up.

My mate bought his Son a fake Liverpool jersey off Lazada, you should see it, it has a badge in the centre of the chest declaring Liverpool the Qatar World Cup Champions 2022.

Will the demo come across ok on the net, good luck with it - you vould check out old reef lectures for inspiration.

I make short science videos for students in China who can't easily access YouTube (not everyone has a VPN). My own website is hosted in Hong Kong, with fast and open access from mainland China.

Got a small job to do on M'Sahib's Honda Accord, replacing the window trim and seal on each of the 4 doors (she'd ordered the replacements, which arrived yesterday). YouTube tells us it's a simple job, though best done with sockets removing the holding nuts rather than a spanner. Don't have sockets, to a look in Lazada for something cheap and cheerful got me this delivered just now. At 153 baht for the set, certainly cheap, and it's not a heavy duty job so should work.

^ cant go wrong with that. They'll probably rust up but you could give the a misting with WD40.

I hated not having the right tools for the job in Thailand, i found the first year or so a catalogue of visits to DIY shops with different tools required.

How will you get the alarm clock into the carboy? (Smiley in case there are some who think I don't know how to get an alarm clock into a carboy.)

Silly boy! I won't use an alarm clock! I will use a small electronic buzzer powered by AA batteries. I already checked before I bought the carboy that the mouth is wide enough for both buzzer and batteries....

Then the second and subsequent years going back because the first tools broke or never worked at all or are awol having been last sighted in the hands of the gf.

Congratulations. This sentence has never been uttered in the history of mankind.

This is why I'm on Teakdoor.

All part of the downsizing without downpricing. A 'standard' wine bottle is still 750ml although quite a few spirits are now sold in bottles of 700ml.

Just a follow on from my post #2093, and my 153 baht socket set. This was the job required, removing old window weather strip and installing new ones on M'Sahib's Honda Accord. The front doors required the door mirrors to be either removed or, in the case of the passenger door, pulled out and held whilst the strip was changed. Removing the door mirrors required a speaker cover to be removed to expose the mirror holding nuts.



Socket set was just the job.



Passenger door mirror wrapped to prevent damage to the door.



Door minus old weather seal and cleaned.



Close up of one of the old weather seals, and how the rubber strip has perished.



New ones





The car was new in July 2008, and has still only done 26k kilometres (but serviced every year). Think M'Sahib plans to keep it forever.
