Thanks pgs. Do you know how brittle the concrete jars/tanks are for drilling holes in?

Happily, I've not yet had that pleasure....
If you're buying new ones, they can be ordered with holes. Not sure of the village name, but it is near Korat - all size pots & pottery can be made to order.

RUBBISH !  you can buy d/f on arrival at Brisbane and probably the other airports in oz.


I don't control the 'travelsecure.infrastructure.gov.au/international/lags/dutyfree_to.aspx' website. I don't make the rules. That was the wording lifted directly from their page. Feel free to take it up with them.
Yes, you can buy at any AU international airport at arrivals - if you particularly like paying more than in most Asian countries.

Spoonman:
This I find confusing, I flew out of Brisbane 2 weeks ago and me and the missus had a 1.125lt bottle of OP rum each as carry on.



I had not had a problem taking booze out of AU either - taking it out wan't restricted.

Now there's generally not a lot of difference between DF in arrivals & Dan Murphy's, so I don't often bother with it coming in.


The main thing is, the resriction is to be lifted. I guess some poli wanted to bring some.

Today's Daily Terrorgraph:

Airport X-rays to end 100ml liquid limits

THE 100ml limit on alcohol, perfumes and other liquids that can be carried on board international flights is to be phased out.
The move comes as security equipment that detects liquid explosives is installed at airports in Australia and overseas.
Australia will lead the world in ending the ban from July 1, when the X-ray equipment begins operating in international transit lounges.
It will be extended from about April next year, in line with a relaxation of the strict 100ml rule at European airports and in the US.
Initially it will apply only to items bought in sealed bags at airport duty-free shops.
The Federal Government will contribute $28.5 million to help airports phase in the new technology.

I'm no plumber either, but have had the pleasure of living with tank water for some time.

some options I considered for TH, was:
1) run a pipe from the bottom of 1 tank to the top of the next (seated slightly lower) tank. as each fills, the overflow goes to the next.

2) run the pipe from about 6" to 12" from the top of one into the top of the next.

In either case, use something to filter the draining end of each pipe. As the first tank will cop the rubbish off the roof, it will be OK for the garden.

There will probably be someone in TV with more experience that can give better ideas / guidance.

Good luck with it.

Mrs uses a good one on the edge of Pratunam market - don't recall the street name. Only one she'll go to.
Best I can remember is it's around 50M from the corner - near Thanon Ratchaprarop
