Does anyone know if the PWA is playing 'share the pain'? I had a restless night so didn't get up till nine. I am a regular sort of person and did my biz and lo! and behold! the bumgun was dry. Taps too and the showers. Went downstairs and but a trickle out of the tap. Luckily I always set the coffee pot up before I go to bed! My neighbours appeared to have done a disappearing act so couldn't ask them if they had pressure. Does anyone know if the PWA are selectively turning off water/lowering the pressure in moo baans as a water saving measure and how I might find out when it is next due at my place so I can fill a bucket or three to wash and flush?

There is no system to the madness. Seriously there is no schedule and there is no selective process going on. This is the way things are and will surely get worse as time goes on and all the construction continues. The best thing you could do is get yourself a couple of 50 gallon plastic water storage tanks; one for upstairs and one for downstairs. You can get them at Makro on sale occasionally for about 600-700 Baht each. We had no water from around 7:30-8:00 this morning until around 18:00 this evening. There is 3 of us here and we exhausted all 100 gallons hours before the water came back on. If you are single, 100 gallons should get you through a day or two. There have been numerous times over the last year where we had no water for 2 days. Every Thai home in Thailand is prepared for this with ceramic vats of water or water storage tanks. Part of life in Thailand.

The hours were about the same for me. You out towards Nong Jorm/Sansai? And TY for the tip.

Yes same location. Water was off in quite a large area as friends all over the Sansai area were also without water today.

At least they can't stop beer. Except between midnight and 11 am and 2pm to 5pm. Well except for deliveries from Tops. Or mom and pop stores.

I am in San Sai and real glad got a well in the back garden. Always got water.
