COLD DARK ROOM

Friends. As many of you know I am a moderator on an IT forum. General discussion including political debate is allowed there.

Take a look at the news and you will understand why I am going to be busy for a while.

Not see you sometime!

Ok....Update: after some internet research, then some checking to see what is available locally, we made a trek over to our local Lowes and bought a brandy new Craftsman self-propelled front wheel drive 21 inch cut “push” mower complete with a Honda 160cc engine. Our previous two mowers were Troy Built with Briggs & Strstton engines. I’m now convinced they are meant to have engine failure at the 2-3 yesr period. Second B&S mower/motor to fail at the three year mark.

Anyhow, new mower is home, out of the box, assembled, filled with both oil and gas/petrol and started on the very first 1/2 pull. Runs like a champ.

Final cost $315.00 - wifey had a 10% coupon in her back pocket for such an (unscheduled) expense.

Again with the "brandy"!! What's with you two?

I love the Trimmer brand front throw mowers and I've had them all my adult life. They always came with a Briggs and Stratton motor. The last one I bought, to the tune of almost $1000, came with a Honda motor. I don't like it. In fact, I disliked it so much I went out and bought me a "toy" riding mower to use instead. I never could get that Honda motor to lean out. I always "loped" and never ran smoothly.

Had my college enrolment today. Very tedious and boring but I’ve got my student card and I’m enrolled.

You better learn to type with one hand so you can pet with the other. She's too beautiful to refuse.

I think so. Is this the new non-meat burger trying to be a burger? We don’t do fast food often.

Now apply for an NUS discount card. (Now called TOTUM)

My kids saved a fortune with this (and so did I when I took them shopping)
https://www.nus.org.uk/en/nus-extra/festudentdiscounts/

It comes with free ISIC which gives you discounts when abroad.
https://www.totum.com/international-student-discounts

It is well worth the small fee for getting it

This may be farewell from me. I can’t see me struggling with the browser on my phone.

It will be a nightmare to view it on the browser on the iPhone. I started out that way as I didn’t realise there was an app and it was a pain in the rear. The app was a saviour!
