Shopee, Lazada, good quality and no problems ordering.

There are a few co's that one can charter re pickups. Most are "international" and operate in any country as such. Thought maybe somebody knows a regular driver. that is on time, waits and does the transfer. Not necessary for me; bur for my wife and kids that will arrive at different dates.

Can one recommend a good driver to meet and greet me at the airport on arrival and bring to Karon Beach? Dates will be in July. Thanks.

The lenses in my present glasses need replacing; progressive lenses. Any recommendations re shop to go to that does not charge exorbitant prices? I will be using my present glasses, so just the lenses need changing, and I already have a prescription. Thanks!

You could try SIAMKIT company, they have 2 branches in Chiang Mai, one on the super highway and one in Hang Dong. You can Google them.

Would like to download the South African series: Nêrens, Noord-Kaap. Anybody has a source, torrent? By the way, finished watching Donkerbos and very good IMO.

Great reply; and seems to work better now. Thanks.

After watching Donkerbos, which I truly enjoyed, I would like to watch Nêrens, Noord-Kaap. Any place I can download it? Thanks.

Yes, that is what I suspected, that somehow there is air going into the suction pipe. Will check that. Mind, you might be difficult job as most of it is underneath the deck. Or I might change all the pipework going from suction pipe to pump and beyond. What you think? Momentarily it's a bit of a mix of pipes and honestly, a bit of a mess. The bottom drain is OK, I never used it yet, but if I need it is there, and will just run out of the pipe in the pump room, near the sprinkler pump.

Hi. Wonder if somebody has some advice for me. The hoover/vacuum hole has good suction. When I attach the hose, the end of hose has good suction as well. Then, when hoovering the floor of the pool, after a minute or so, the suction decreases a lot. The water entering the skimmer basket has very little flow. All worked fine, for several years, till about 2 weeks ago. I have an overflow pool. The suction pipe goes to the pump and afterwards to the filter and then to pool outlets/nozzles. As you can seem the basket of the pump has almost no water going in and lots of air. Checked the filter, pump, connections and all’s as it should be. Any reason why suddenly this is happening? video_2023-12-13_10-16-27 (3).mp4

Indeed, had noticed that as well. What will happen if I press "reset" ????

Wonder if anybody can tell me how to read the PEA smart meter. It has 3 different rates: T1, being peak rate (9AM till 10 PM) T2, being off-peak rate (10 PM till 9 AM) T3, being weekend rate. Anybody knows what are the charges in Thai Baht for each rate? What does L1, L2 and L3 mean? And then the different displays, especially which display tells me the current meter reading, e.g. how many KW used in total? A bit confusing, I must say????

Yes, that will be the next job and appreciate your info. First I need somebody to chop them down to ground level.

Need to have about 30+ stems of bamboo cut down. They are about 6+ meters tall. Anybody knows of somebody that can do it? I am in the Nong Khwai, Mae Hia area. Thanks.

Wonder if necessary to clean the sand of the sand filter? See (mainly in US) there is a cleaner/degreaser product that one can use - yearly - to clean the sand that is inside the filter. Don't see such a product being available here in Thailand. Question? Is it necessity and if so, what can one use and how? Thanks!
