Nothing. Shops were closed yesterday and today, because of Pentecost. Takes two days in the Netherlands, and in small villages like mine, shops are closed both days.
haven't heard that word since my days as a catholic.

i bought groceries and saved some plants from the snow by purchasing them. some marigolds and i forget what the other things were. might try to plant them later in the week when it gets warmer.
chicken for $1.99 a lb CDN
porterhouse listed as t-bone for $9/lb. here they call it a t-bone and include the tenderloin because they can't sell filet mignon to us poor people. i would find it hard to believe that they didn't know what it was. when we grill it py gets the strip and part of the tenderloin and i get part of the tenderloin which is nicer to my teeth.

Well, we updated our cable service this week end, but I think they fucked up.

There was a promotional discount effective for two years if we signed up for the upgrade this month.

Great, right!! Only problem is that we were suppose the get faster internet speeds and a few more channels, like maybe forty more than the basic service that we had before.
Now we have over two thousand cable channels, even some expensive stuff, like five NFL sports channels (do mot even know how many golf, tennis, fishing, hunting and foreign channels we have now) and seven racing channels covering stuff from all over the world. It is kind of cool, but WAY more than we can ever use.

Pretty sure they fucked up and I need to call them so I do not receive a bill for over two hundred dollars next month.

Oh, we were supposed to pay about twelve dollars more per month, not more than double. I really have no need for all these channels.

 :fish2:

A Linksys wrt1900 acs.

Sounds just like mine as far as specs. Mine is a Netgear, AC1900.  I posted a pic of it the day I bought it.
It has been a while.
 :dunno:


With the popularity of online ALL HOME security devices, there are insanely "powerful"  routers available if one has the need.

We sell one crazy variety for those households that is AC3900 quad "channel" with its own battery back up built in. Around nine hundred dollars.


Mine works fine. You will love yours!

I'm also thinking about adding a switch to the mix. I need something to extend parts of my new network.

They support dd-wrt now.

Yeah, they do, and I'm wondering if that is what I should use.

4 bottles of carbonated elderflower presse. the shop charged me only for two of them. Meant to have been £2.39 a bottle, I had a fiver, went to pick myself out 2 bottles of the stuff, and the
lady at the till asked me for only £2.39. So I went back and grabbed another two bottles, I'm just drinking the last of the stuff now, mixed with cherry wine and with a 'max orange' calippo
broken into chunks, tossed in to cool and flavour it as the pieces bob about on top. A splash, just  a wee  dash of brandy in it would have been nice, but I CBF be going out to the shops again; as I have just got home from going for a chinese.

Got two big portions of king prawn egg fried rice, two chinese style aromatic crispy ducks, a banana fritter for later, a big tub of fat, juicy ripe strawberries my folks gave me, and the chinese  place's owner threw me in a free huge bag of prawn crackers.

Plus plenty snacks, a bottle of powerade, a couple of tubs of super-sour and blazing raging hot fireball candy, and some 'push pop' bubblegum (i think) candys etc. 'party ring' iced cookies and other stuff besides.
