You cannot import dogs into Australia from Thailand or any other country where rabies is present.

The digital displays on Tesco's tills at the checkouts. Only suitable for anyone under one meter tall with a magnifying glass and then anyone with 20/20 vision could be mistaken for thinking they are developing cataracts.

What on earth possessed Tesco to install till displays that people cannot read?

HomePro had a replacement pump assembly THB 24,500

Went to the pump shop on Pattaya North. THB 17,500 for same pump, but told me I only needed a new pressure Tank THB 1,850.

Took 15 minutes to change it. Job done!

The pressure tank on my Grundfos Water Booster pump has sprung a leak after nine years of loyal service. As the pump is beginning to look a bit tired I am looking to replace the whole assembly.

Anyone know where in Pattaya I can get a replacement Grundfos CH4-50PT 0.92 kw/220v/1.22hp

The hardware stores and builders merchants only appear to stock the smaller ones.

Thanks

I rang them, no answer several times. In my opinion, it was easier to ask on here than to get on my bike and ride 10K to immigration to ask .

Try again on Monday, you may have more luck.

But where did they get seahorses ?

 

I have seen some in aquariums, can we also see them in the sea around here ?

 

 

Probably from China along with all the other foods Thailand imports as the Thais cannot be bothered to produce it.

Had lunch in the one in Royal Garden yesterday.

Pad Thai Yummy !!!

I use this junction three to four time per week and regularly see impatient drivers pull out into the opposite lane to race to the lights and turn right. They also do the same at the opposite end where Pattaya Tai joins Second Road. It is a miracle that this has not happened before.

There should be plenty of witnesses to confirm if this was the case and hopefully some CCTV/dashcams to show what really happened.

I enquired about opening a USD$ account. They wanted to take 1.5% of the deposit as a fee. No interest is paid.

So if you have to pay the bank to look after your money for you.

I have seen some Iranian Islamic Republican cats wandering around our neighborhood. But they tend to get beaten up by locals.

I got one last week. Went to Dr. Oliver as thought it may be cheaper than hospital. The receptionist told me "no have go to hospital" without even looking up from her mobile phone.

So I went to Bangkok Pattaya Clinic on Sukhumvit opposite Big C. Best bit is no hanging around as it is a quiet place.

Baht 790 including Dr. consultation to write prescription, taking Weight, Blood pressure and temperature.

But we still don't know which country he wants a  passport for.

Is Huayrat Turkish?

No as I always check them first.

Tip the rice bag up. You can see them if they are in there!

Give the four bag a tap with the flat of your hand to see if you get flour volcanoes out of small holes.

I would be careful of purchasing any more flour than your immediate needs as it could be a false economy.

I have found, in particular, Makro and Big C rice and flour can have weevils inside (even in sealed, airtight, plastic bags).

Be aware!!!

I would be interested to know what you get and how much you pay as I am considering replacing a door.

Thanks

Is the Food Hall a catering business with all the staff on each stall working for FH

OR

are they independent traders renting a stall with the cash going through the FH till for later distribution?

They do seem to operate independently.

I used to enjoy the noodle soup there but gave up with it after they took all the soup spoons away.

The charge of B30 is clearly to discourage people, who in the past who have parked for free but do not shop there.

Seems to be working judging by the above comments.

Lets face it, you had to get your ticket validated under the old system, so not much has changed!

Someone at TV may want to check this out

Contact the PILC Google it for info.
My wife collects the ring pulls for them.
Also you can call on at Palm Beach hotel Jomtien at the Bowling on a Thursday at
11 am for the ladies Bowling.
It's OK they don't bite

I agree PILC make sure they get to the right place. The ring pulls are a special aluminum alloy which is used by the Prosthesis Foundation to provide prosthetics to amputees.

My wife is a member of PILC. If you need me to pick up I "can"  Please PM me or drop off at the Palm Beach (as above).

The ferry cost Bt600 one way. I wonder how much the bridge toll would be to repay Bt45-bn

How many new ferries could they buy for that price!

From the picture, it looks like the truck was driving on the wrong side of the road.

Central reservation to trucks left

Arrow on road

Got it, Thank you.

And thanks Banglay for the instructions.

It is only 600 Baht to take the car on the ferry (including driver) from Donsak to Samui

And only 160 Baht for a foot passenger.

On that basis, the Pattaya HH ferry would appear to be overpriced.
