Coming from someone who does not know the time of day its hardly comforting

The alpha female is just being a bit grumpy you have been away and you are her boss so shes got a bit big for boots

The brown one in picture is oldest and boss she puts other 2 in their place they in turn learn not to mess with her or play her up

A big problem we have is they sit around my chair on patio woe betide one of the 2 black ones sitting or lying in her place

i was thinking just the same, up till last nights forum outage very few adds on my android phone

Today they are absolutely clucking everywhere dont know if its coincidence or not

anyway will use far less if at all on phone now

luckily on laptop i appear to have an add free forum version for some "strange" reason 

Our village wat has a burning About once every 3 months hardly over used

FTT

what city are you in?

 

In the sticks 15km south of prachuap khiri khan there is an industrial pump repair company in town will try there  first if not there a global house/home( homepro which i hold no hope for) and a few other diy shops

I have looked on internet but cant find a gasket that matches so far

Cheers thats what i hoping i am searching for gasket if not i can make my own i have looked on line seems to be lots of gaskets for these pumps apart from this one that I want

I was just a bit put off by the guy who was supposed to know about watery things

Pump is 7 years old

it works fine

But leaking from bottom right screw/bolt on pump motor

Screws /nuts bolt completely tight

Miserable guy who repairs washing machines says pump is not repairable but hes terrified Of my dogs so may have just wanted to leave

Would be grateful for any ideas anyone?

Buying new pump is a very very last resort

As I stated in the OP, we plan to rent a car and go sit on a beach, not make contact with locals or sit in confined places with anyone.

Not being argumentative but personally considering leaving Thailand and family more importantly my dogs to get vaccinated in UK as it not happening here

So, with that in mind sorry but hardly a valid reason to  travel vaccinated or not

With the vast majority of Thais an certainly foreigners awaiting vaccination i can understand wanting to keep it quiet

Around here 80 south of Hua hin you would be treated like you have the plague at worst, and frostily  at best so IMHO not worth it for you or others

MORE Interestingly how did you Qualify to get vaccinated

Let me get this right. Few infections and few deaths, lockdown. Loads of infections and many deaths just consider it ? Sounds nuts to me

I believe you have lived here long enough to learn not to apply reasoned logic to Thailand especially now as it governed by individuasl of limited intellects and unlimited personal greed.

1. They are essentially telling us here that there will be 10,000 cases per day coming soon. They are just preparing everyone for the news.

 

2. I very much doubt testing has increased (probably decreased if anything) and therefore these numbers reflect much higher infections rates, probably 20% to 30% which is a terrifying prospect.

 

3. Vaccines are difficult, testing is easy. I am amazed the government isn’t coming under more fire for lack of testing as there really is no excuse.

 

4. Next up will be outbreaks in the barracks. Leaked information is imminent in my opinion.

 

5. Where is the dear leader during all this, the guiding light giving inspiration during these difficult times.

 

6. Thailand will be the worst hit globally by this and is about to become the new global story like India and Brazil were.

 

7. This is going to be bad. Very bad.

This is grim reading!

Sadly i totally  agree

Yes, I am registered to get my vaccination after all the Thais. (Never mind the age factor!!)  As stated in a previous post, they did one out of five days vaccinating before running out beginning of June. God alone knows when they will start again! Also registered for Moderna at a private hospital with the wife. Things are not looking rosy for those of us of all nationalities living around Bang Saphan Noi!!

Not much better in PKK but at least a promise of being seen too in August with AZ

The Intervac website has been updated with the promise of vaccines becoming available for foreigners age 60 and above and those with chronic medical conditions:

 

 

https://www.thailandintervac.com/

 

This time, the latest version appears to abandon having foreign nationals make appointments online at the government website, and instead appears to be directing foreigners to contact and book appointments directly thru the two hospitals.

 

 

It may come as a surprise there foreigners outside Bangkok! Hardy a solution is it

Might sound stupid cannot vaccines that require no special transport just be purchased or made available to purchase online i and be sent here via DHL or equivalent

Its really time to sort it out ourselves because its looking like no one will / can /or is interested

If one gets out and attacks me off your property, you are going to compensate me for my injuries?

I don't agree with poisoning dogs, but I do have a dislike of irresponsible owners.

Dogs are territorial

I have 4 on my property, they are guard dogs pets snake an rat killers 

• You walk by or come to the gate, they bark its their job!
• You come over the fence unannounced  they will be cross! you will be in trouble
• You get invited in, if you have no food or show them no fuss they will most likely  ignore you

I am only farang in my area my dogs never go off my property....

But its countryside and beach where i live there must 100 dog living rough in about 3 mile area so much more chance in getting chased by one of them, but that's nothing to do with me
