They may not service your area either. Depending on what’s left…our realtor may have some ideas. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go Bills, love watching games in my living room rather than bar , problem with the Bills fan club bar was it was hard to get a good seat even 30 minutes before the game , but they did have excellent wings. Sailing in 21 days . I predict that the team from NY will win today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No pain but much improved vision. The eye drops prevented any pain during the op and I had no pain afterwards. The surgeon said I had a minor cataract in my other eye and I pushed to get that done ASAP and it was done 6 months later. I was delighted with the result. I only need reading glasses now and not the expensive varifocal glasses. Thank you, Graham. So glad it all worked for you. 9 minutes ago, DaniDanielle said: The New York Marathon is today.

He was in so much pain after, he couldn't go to work for 3 days and he practiced beforehand, was a seasoned jogger and seemed to be in top shape. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Sea Dog Posted November 6, 2022 #77008 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Kansas City Whiskey Expo I survived the 2022 KC Whiskey Expo. Actually feel pretty good today but glad Linda and I stayed the night at the hotel. Wow what a great experience to talk and taste bourbon and whiskey from some incredible distilleries and vendors. I couldn't possibly taste everything but I did taste most of the VIP bottles. Winner for me was the Hibiki 21. A Japanese Whiskey aged for 21 years. A bottle goes for a whopping $1100. My next favorite was the Bruichladdich Black Art Edition 10, A scotch whiskey from Scotland. It sells for $450. I'm glad I got to at least taste these because I don't think I can afford to buy any of these. Most of my bourbons and Whiskeys are in the $125 or less category. Expensive hobby to say the least. The event was packed but there was enough vendors 50 in all that kept everyone moving. I will say that I got my money's worth of my VIP $125 ticket and the $147 hotel room. Linda got the general admission ticket that was $75 and she even played the slots in the casino and won $50. All and all a great night of fun and spirits. 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a fun evening, I would also have gotten a hotel or Ubered , we had a unlimited drink package on MSc a few years ago and had a few very nice Japanese scotch’s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine3601 Posted November 6, 2022 #77014 Share Posted November 6, 2022 We had a quick 20 minute shower earlier today. Just enough to make the leaves wet and keep clogging the shoot in the riding mower that we use to mulch. Wet leaves are no fun...taking a lunch break and will get back out there. No sun today but humid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanleyandGus Posted November 6, 2022 #77015 Share Posted November 6, 2022 This is the weather here today. I think it’s here to stay.

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted November 6, 2022 #77016 Share Posted November 6, 2022 (edited) My daughter and her best friend have been trying for 6 years (including the two years they lived in London) to get tickets to the annual Glastonbury music festival in England. Last night was their second and final attempt to obtain tickets for 2023. So, at 8pm on the dot when the second round of tickets were released, she had her phone, her laptop, my phone, plus her dad and her brother with their devices all set up in a family room. Her best friend in Sydney was doing the same at her house as was her best friend in England… From 8pm onwards, I would open the door to the room every 15mins and get a sad shake of heads. At 7.50pm, DH came out and said it’s not happening. At 7.55pm, I heard a shriek. Yes, her Sydney BF had finally secured 3 tickets, 5 mins before the event sold out.

Rare aussielozzie18 Posted November 6, 2022 #77017 Share Posted November 6, 2022 @bobmacliberty how wonderful that the Right Whales are being brought back from almost extinction. I love Whales. On my recent ship excursion whale watching cruise, seeing the mother and calves and just hearing them almost brought tears to my eyes. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare brillohead Posted November 6, 2022 #77022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 It's 3:15 and they just announced that 512 people still haven't done their muster station. I could have given them a pass on Symphony last week, because they didn't have the stations open at the time they started boarding guests, so if you went right when you boarded and couldn't do it, it would be easy to get caught up in eating and learning the ship and forget to go back. But Oasis had the muster stations open with the very first guests walking on this morning. I had The Key (cheaper than Voom on sale) and I was on board, muster done, and had my laptop out in the Schooner Bar by 10:45. It's not rocket science, folks -- go to your muster station! 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
