In Topic: Good Dog Vet In Pattaya?

We were quite impressed with Dr. Net.  In Pattaya.
He has moved.  New location:  Still on Siam Country Club Road, but further down - just before the Lotus Express
on the same side of the road.
The number we have for him is  038 413 689.


He speaks excellent English and his shop is quite clean and cool.

I have tried phones, tablets, laptops, desktop for ebook reading but the Kindle is simply the best I have found. Comfortable for long reads, great screen outside and in decent inside light, looong battery life, storage for thousands of books. Very much recommend that he install Calibre on his desktop for ebook storage, management and to change format if the ebooks he gets are not mobi/Amazon format. Simple sideload from Calibre to Kindle via USB cable (included with Kindle).


I agree.  Nothing I have seen, beats it.  I liked mine so much that I bought one for my wife.

I bought mine directly from Amazon in the US.  I bought another one, previously, and had it shipped over.
The BEST way to get a Kindle is to order directly from Amazon.  The price is about 200 US and that included
shipping and Thai Customs Duty.  Took about 5 days to get here.

Listing a few features of the pump, probably would have been helpful.
The pump is self priming.  It usually takes about 3 seconds to prime, after changing tanks.
We have an attractive tap or faucet on the sink top...... about 12 inches from the regular water faucet.
The pump operates on a pressure switch.   Turn the tap on - the pump goes on...... the pump goes off
when you turn the tap off.
It pumps a surprising amount of water in a very short time.

I have this type system.  Three years ago, I had a friend from the USA, buy and send a Shurflo pump.
Shurflo is a 12 volt pump, used primarily in recreational vehicles and motorhomes in the US.
It cost about 75 dollars, US.
Next to it (under the sink) is a 10 amp 12 volt transformer.
We use the large bottles of water to pump out of........ with a separate faucet on top of the counter.
I was never able to find a similar pump in Thailand, although I looked.
The system works very, VERY well.
