Saw some Blue Tits getting a bit frisky, and examining a nest box in my garden. Noticed the nest box is getting a bit rotten so bought them a new one.

Didn't like the white interior & exterior so gave it a lick of Farrow & Ball 'Downpipe' coloured paint I had left over from painting my shed. Can't believe the Blue Tits have a F&B painted house!!!

Where is your go to for good prices?

Its been quite an adventure watching these prices and hunting ammo during this time period. Going to the range has taken on a whole new cost and meaning!

Exactly... haven't done much better than $1/round... which is crazy... but you gotta do what you gotta do... generally you can find slightly better prices online IF you can find any in stock... there's a local range that's not outrageous... but wow, I miss the 'good old days'. :D

Logitech MX Keys for Mac. It is so much nicer to use than the magic keyboard. The only annoying feature is it can't pair with your Mac if you have FireVault enabled so needs a dongle.

Whats your favorite site online to find good supply? I am usually on Ammoseek but wondering if I am missing any other major players. You are absolutely right though!

Sportsman was my "go to" because was always in stock and good prices... but everything everywhere is around $1/round and/or out of stock. I can usually find it locally for $1/round these days and save on shipping.

YAY! iTunes finally posted the Godzilla movies included in the Criterion Collection set so I had to buy my two favorites. Also a Michelle Yeoh / Sammo Hung film (The Stunt Woman) directed by Ann Hui.

I have had zero luck locally. I guess I need to start timing supply drops and asking when those occur.

Scheels, Cabelas, Dicks, are impossible to find 9mm right now here in the DFW area.

Had good luck at Shooter's World in PHX... hit or miss, but the last 2 times I've tried, no worries... now, let's get the prices back down to reasonable. :D

I have one of these, lovely keyboard, especially when paired with the Mx3 mouse, I’m using Bluetooth and FileVault is on as I use it with my company MacBook Pro and don’t have that issue.
 
I picked up this little monitor today at Office Max. I just needed one for work so I didn't need anything fancy or extra. If it works well, I will get the 4K version to replace the one I have at home.

I should have been clearer, the keyboard won't pair when you boot the Mac from cold. It's fine with sleep though. It's only an annoyance as I regularly reboot into Bootcamp. It's OK if you use the included USB receiver but that leaves me with one less port.

There are some other problems starting to emerge. I had to turn the automatic backlighting off as it is too distracting. Also the mapping of the ±§ and ~` keys is reversed on the UK edition, I haven't found a way to fix that yet.

I may end up returning it.

Ah yes, I have that problem do, didn’t realise it was file vault related so thanks for that.
