Couldn’t they find a bigger box?

New house. Moving to a more quiet area.

Very nice. Not on top of neighbours.

Quite frankly yet another Swiss Army knife not in picture, a bigger brother or sister. 😅

Not in favor of the carbon footprint at least for shipping.

Looks amazing. Congrats.

Very nice. We moved to the country at the end of 2019 and we love it.

Cant wait to toss out the old remote for the Apple TV

I see. It’s Swiss Army Knives all the way down, am I right?

The bigger one came in an even bigger box. Had to use a Swiss Army Machete to get that one open, no doubt.

So I found out the hard way, that "Hammer" finish paint (or at least, the Rustoleum brand ones, which are also primer-less for use on less-than-perfect metal surfaces) need a stronger solvent to clean the brushes. So, some Xylene (aka Xylol), and some more white spirit (aka mineral spirits, mineral turpentine) because apparently repainting builders ****** work is what I do now.

For those who don't know, both are clear liquids, so... I dunno. Look at some water to know what they look like.

Love the look of that!

Thanks! Really Happy about it. You also do have the option to NOT get Nutsac written in the logo. I chose not to so that HR is happy at work.

I actually have two recent purchases:

(1) A cardboard cat house for Harrison (which he approves of by the way):

(2) Finally snagged a PS5 by sheer luck from Playstation Direct's latest randomized queue:

A Wetfly hardwood fishing net. It seems that I am taking up fishing again, after a multi decade hiatus.

Lol. I thought it was a tennis racket with very lose string!

I thought it was something for deep frying stuff. I guess once you’ve caught the fish it could be a twofer.

 

[Matz]

It does look like a tennis racquet!

The netting is made of rubber, which is more conducive to catch and release fishing. Apparently it's less likely to remove the all-important fish slime.

 

[Expos of 1969]

Summer edition. Herring with ginger and lime...

 

[Matz]

This was delivered this morning. We have several acres to mow, and this should speed things up.

(not sure why the picture is rotated 90 degrees)

Looks like fun. A sheep or two would be less work though.
