Not all the bottles, Paul!!!
But I know you know how to handle it.
PROST, mein Freund!

My weekend is helping family with decorating again (but least I get fed and watered (with beer) ).
Must say though Iâm questioning my mothers sanity when she considers this Halloween gadget, cute
This crazy puppet could lead one to insanity.
Could cause nightmares indeed, Neil.
A friend of mine has a butcherâs shop in Thuringia.
Non Germans must know that this place is beside Franconia VERY famous of the local Bratwurst.
So he sends me some from time to time.
The last packet contained a special âHaloweenwurstâ.
Not causing nightmares only appetite!
The type of this sausage is still not known.
But I am sure its not a kind of pumpkin sausage.
He would not dare to create such one.
It will be âslaughteredâ soon.
Not a Bratwurst of course.
Hi all few left here.
No more activities, all sleeping and waiting for the apocalypse?
Funny thing happened today :
I lifted up my 11S, the most famous 11S Robovac ever , named âold Willyâ.
Something was jingling inside.
Oho, I thought there must have got something lose inside.
Surgery again?
But when I opened the dust container, I saw the reason.
The old, loyal fellow had collected a coin.
Not so much (10 cent)
But better than nothing in the crisis.
somebody left old willy a tip, for his service?
Franz, you should âaccidentally dropâ more coins for old Willy to findâŚ
Too bad he canât vacuum the sofa!
What Willy is perfect for, is finding little screws which I often lose when tinkering with some
old laptops.
What everybody could do :
Replace HDD with SSD.
These are cheap meanwhile :
eg. I got a 120GB one for 12 Euros from amazon.
I dont need a lot of space.
LINUX is small (WINDOOFS not )
And my personal data are about 5GB (no films, videos stored)
So its fine.
Booting like ârocketsâ
8GB main memory 120GB SSD absolutely perfect.
I am often gifted old devices from friends.
The last one was an IBM thinkpad.
256mb memory, 16GB HDD and WINXP.
I did not change.
I am really wondering that in those old days WINDOOFs worked with such hardware features.
Hope everyone is doing alright. Getting pretty cold now by me. This weekend they are talking about upstate New York and other areas possibly getting six feet of snow. Hope everyone is staying safe and warm in these cold times.
Wow thatâs really nice! Nice picture too!
We changed the house,
because the one we rented the last years is not available anymore
But the new one is even better and closer to our favourite bar.
Getting cold here as well (Southern California). We went from 95-105 degree weather to lower upper 40âs / lower 50âs (nighttime temps) in a matter of a couple of weeksâŚI know this is NOT cold to some who are used to much colder.
We had a house we rented here in the So Cal area (house was in Newport Beach) twice a year, once in spring (one week) and once in fall (one week). The landlord was old and owned the front and back houses (it was a small duplex) since they were built on the Balboa Peninsula in Newport Beach. He basically rented out the back house for $325-$375 a week during the off-season times we hadâŚthis was back in 2004-2007 or so. He could easily have charged A LOT more than that but didnât because all of his tenants were good friends and he loved to to be surrounded by these friends (us included). My sister and her husband also had one week there during the summerâŚin fact , the two, one-week spots I stayed there were actually given to me by my sister since she and her husband had to miss some stays due to a new baby. They later on got a one-week spot that opened later on. I loved that place. The property was sold quite a few years ago and a brand new two-story rental was built there where they are now charging well over $2500 for the week.
Have a great holiday, Franz!
Be thankful not in buffalo⌠200cm snow expected this weekend .
Hope @ktkundy manages well with all the shovelling that comes with.
If I would expect such a mass of snow at home,
I would stay here for more time.
Hope your shovels are ready.
Take some photos!
I can understand you, I lived in NorCal. But most here wonât understand duplex.
The body adapts to cold, slowly, over weeks. The same temp in spring feels warmer than in autumn.
I felt a little chilly today in my shorts t-shirt sandals, it was 52F. I am happy around 63F, anything above that is too hot. 90F Iâm basically stationary or trapped within A/C (another terminology outside of USA wonât understand).
ACDC?
I understand
Luckily I am not in Buffalo but I do have family around there that said the snow was insane
Snow is not something I have seen since I was a teen. Yes it definitely snows in SoCal and itâs only 1.5 hours away but I have had no desire to be in itâŚbesides my car is not snow-capable. Tire chains are not to be used on it, and especially not in itâs current form.
Happy thanksgiving to everyone! I ate lots of turkey and got to spend some really nice time with the family. Iâm thankful for all of you on this community as well and for all of the great fun we have had through the years
Happy Thanksgiving to all here as well! Stay safe and healthy, everyone!
