My experience of Garmin GPS in English, is if you don't spell the destination absolutely as Garmin have it stored then you won't find it. We had a nightmare trying to find Leluk (Laluk, Lelook, Lalux, Lelux) Hospital in Bangkok recently on a Toyota satnav. We ended up driving to roughly the area we...

First of all the system in my car doesn't use a disk, but keeps the maps on a AD card. Secondly, according to a friend I spoke with today, he has checked with Toyota and they said that the unit can use Garmin maps. Well if this is the case I would think that I can get the maps online from Garmin? I ...

Hi, I have the original GPS/Entertainment system in my Fortuner Sportivo III - 2011 model. I have no clue what kind of GPS this is, the system is only marked with "Toyota". For me the GPS looks similar to Garmin, but I'm not sure. Anyway the map I have in this GPS is the original map that ...

In case anyone are interessted, we have now bought our Rottweiler puppy. Will be picking him (female) up in about 1 months time. We bought from Ratchburi Kennel, and both father and mother are champion dogs. The father, "Falco" is champion in 3 countries. So for a Rottweiler puppy with thi...

The seafood places in the center of town, at the pier, sadly have disappointed me. I've been there 3 times, and I was not impressed at all. Now myself and my wife go to a place in Khao Takib called Rua Rimtarn. It's shaped as a boat. We have been there around 30 times, and I we have never been let d...

You can't have been eating there for 3 years though, he's only been there for about 18 months, he used to run Sabai on 116, Mon is sound though, nice bloke and decent food. Sabai on 116 is decent too, basically the same menu as Mon. I'd recommend both. Of course you're right about that. I lived in ...

There is a small restaurant on Soi 112 just 100 meters past 7/11 which is called Mr. Mon. I would very much recommend this place. I lived in this soi for 3 years and ate there a lot. It is very affordable prices and the thai food is excellent. Some of the thai food is even westernalized a bit so thi...

Another one is speedtest.net. This one gives the opportunity to chose servers all over the world when testing.

Hi, I've had 3BB for nearly a month now, and I was very curious of the actual speed I would get. I signed up for the 13Mbps/1Mbps plan which I believe is 958 Baht/month + tax. As most people know, the speed from your IP can be very good when you test towards their server(s) or other server(s) in the...

Thanks for the advice. I may think I have met this Steve before when I was looking at some properties and he came around to do pest control of the neighbour property, and I think I met him also when my friends signed up to use pest control at their house. He's British I believe. I will for sure call...

Hi,

I need advice on which firms do good pest control in Hua Hin? Anyone can give me some info?

Hi, I have just gotten an electric gate opener installed (sliding type). This is a unit made in Korea or China, hard to tell since the documentation which came with the unit were sparse to put it gently. No maintenance instructions. What I'm wondering is if there is any need to lubricate the cog whe...

I have a small fountain/waterfall in my garden. The pump is installed in the bottom of the pond, so the water is generally not flowing very much, and most of the time I keep it switched off. I'm worried the water could be stagnant enough for mosqitos to breed. If that's the case are there any chemic...

Well my mother sent me a letter from Norway before Christmas, I haven't received it yet. This is the second time. Other times letters have arrived from overseas within a week, sometimes a month. I think it's fair to say that the thai postal service is not reliable. Maybe it's the way we write the ad...

Hi, I'm a big big steak lover and I have tried many restaurants in Hua Hin and their steaks. I would like a tip where to go to get big juicy steaks in Hua Hin. The best place I've visited for steaks until now is Papa John at Kao Takiab. The reason for this is their consistency. It has been equally g...
