Been using the same setting on my Fatboy for too many years to recount here. Notwithstanding, at 60 yrs old, I don't fine my preferences any different than I did at 40. I'm a dedicated Gillette Silver Blue and Polsilver blade man and have been for at least 4 or 5 years.

Decided to take on Adam Nicolson's Sea Room for the third or perhaps even fourth time. It's a great read, and one that I always enjoy. Nicolson has an interesting writing style, all of his own, and I find myself often pulled into his narrative. I only have 20 or so pages to go to the end ... but lov...

Oh my giddy aunt. We are booked for November again this year. Can hardly wait for a Bettys tea --- or two --- or three ......

Not a bit! One of his best. If I may share an anecdote. There was a time (how many decades ago?) when Mr. Cash was driving on old Rt. 66 that runs right through our town. It seems his driving caught the attention of the night shift local small town law enforcement and he was pulled over and arreste...

The fun part for me was explaining to all my hockey fan co-workers and acquaintances the difference between block-charge. One guy even commented that he thought basketball was a non-contact sport. He was wrong ......

Morse and Endeavour - by far and away the best british crime dramas going bar none --- Lewis is a close second to this pair. That from a man who has a Morse avatar ......

Hope all's well. Can't imagine something isn't wrong - he was a prolific poster indeed.

Spent ours watching a local Can-Am league baseball game with our daughter and her family of boys. Fun ended with a BBQ - what else?

Happy 4th, y'all. I love that our Canada Day and your Independence Day are right behind one another.

But does it matter with such a classic song????

Sounds like a great find, Sam!

Definitely

A bit of a conundrum for me. I dislike the Warriors and in particular whiny Durant, but after the way Kawhi left the Spurs, I have a hard time rooting for him. ... Funny how we don't bat an eye when someone leaves an employer after what felt like devoted service -- we just move on. But when someone...

On a very sad-for-me day a few months ago, my "well-loved" Semogue 1305 literally fell apart. The knot fell into several pieces and became fodder for the trash bin. This is the second boar that died after about a decade of devoted service. I have yet to replace it as it's a bit like loosing the fami...

Raptors win Game 1 against GSW? Who'd have thought? I didn't watch, but by the writeups I went through, Kahwi distributed but it was Pascal Siakam who brought game and then some. The best way for the Raptors to win will be for someone other than Leonard to show up each night from now until the end. ...

Go with cordless lithium if petrol power isn't your thing.

I was totally shocked to see the Raptors win in 4 straight games after going down 2-0 to the Bucks. Kawhi Leonard is simply amazing and makes everyone around him so much better when he's on the floor.

Next round, hopefully, will not be a simple rout - here's hoping it goes 6 or 7.

The UE boom is very, verry good and gets very, very loud so should work well out of doors.

Have you considered a Bose Soundlink Colour? Water resistant and pretty decent volume. Not as loud as the UE though.

Ja's tock sky-rocketed after the NCAAs. He was outstanding all year, but the showcase of so many games in such a short time showed how good he really is. Zion -- well, he's still, in my mind, not necessarily "The Next Big Thing". I'll wait to see how he does against the men. Don't get me wrong - he ...

Having played the absent child myself on more than one occasion I understand how other things can get in the way. Good to hear from you again!

When ever I see or hear about home reno projects I remember how good I am at writing cheques to contractors. I have never done anything decent beyond painting, and even then my ceiling / wall edges were at best atrocious.

Good luck with all the work -- I am sure it will be phenomenal when done.
