DDC XXXIV: The Original Home Of The DISDads!!!

[docsoliday1]

Is the new place's pool glassed in or screened in? Kitchen looks bigger too? Nice tub for soaking. Have room for the pool table?

Screened. Keeps the bugs out, while still allowing breeze through and more importantly...preventing hurricane force winds from demolishing it. Kitchen is bigger and granite counter tops, which is nice. I think the tub is about the same. Questionable on pool table. Possibly, but it's also possible with the pool, it may be less utilized (many times ends up as catch all anyway). It's also possible, we can put it on the lanai.

Atlantic time?

Ah! I never think of wind. Don't get too many hurricanes up here.

Questionable on pool table. Possibly, but it's also possible with the pool, it may be less utilized (many times ends up as catch all anyway). It's also possible, we can put it on the lanai.

That boggles my mind too. Pool table... outdoors??? How?
Right... Florida.

Morning chaps from the mother country.

Praying for peace, Dan. And, yes you are, please stop now.

Sorry to hear Dan, this is always tough probably tougher now.

Dan. Having lost my daughter last year, I know there are no words that can help or take away the loss, but just know my prayers go out to you and both families. If you would like to talk, give me a shout...pretty sure my mobile plan allows calls to the UK without additional cost. I'm sad and I'm sorry doesn't cover what I'm feeling for you, but for lack of better words, they will have to suffice.

So sorry, man. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family and all friends.

Oh, man. That's terrible news. I'm sorry for their loss of a father and husband and sorry for your loss of a dear friend. My condolences, Dan.

Very sad to hear of this Dan. Thoughts go out to you and his family, way too young.

Man. I'm so sorry, Dan. I'm devastated for you.

Thanks guys for all of these. That one really hit home. Again, we can't be of any practical help or attend the funeral (these are now restricted to 10), so we are planning to remember him when all this shizzle is over.

Wife and I are making an offer on a new house today.

Nice house buddy. Gotta love a lanai in FL. Good luck on the offer. Surely the RE market is tanking a bit, did you lowball?

So this is your chance to participate during the day in the US and evening for UK

Wait, what? We let English people in here? Is that what we fought the War of Independence for? Is that Jefferson I hear spinning in his grave? This place clearly has no standards.

You have to buy it. It has a Bills logo on the freezer.

Also, you can sit inside and recreate the in-stadium temperature at New Era in January. Nice touch.

A stout isn't an all day drinking choice, not even in my younger days

But Guinness is a very good go to if you are watching an all dayer, like cricket or a long one at football. I find you have less need to visit the boys room.

Have a good day y'all.

 

[pkondz]

Morning folks.
Little to report. Will go with run number 5 today. See how that goes.

This place clearly has no standards.

Of course not. They let me in.

 

[declansdad]

Morning All.

Another day working from home. Trying to get a newsletter out to all our members to direct them to resources that could help them through this new sport landscape. Both levels of government have been trying to put programs in place to help so we've got that going for us.

They've started fining people who are not following the social distancing guidelines so hopefully it will cut down on the people getting together in large groups.

People in our little neck of the woods have been trying to do things to their houses to put a smile on people's faces. Declan and his girlfriend took on this little project last night at our place.



Have a good one all!

Nice house buddy. Gotta love a lanai in FL. Good luck on the offer. Surely the RE market is tanking a bit, did you lowball?

We tried...they countered...not the best. On the other hand, when we consider what we paid for this house and what it would cost to add a pool and what it would cost to add gas/gas stove and what it would cost to add a shed for storage and this has 4x the land and 3 car garage, it's still a decent price...just not as good as we'd hoped.

We clearly don't...we let @pkondz in.

Ummm....no....not just no, but h*ll no!!

Of course not. They let me in.

See?

Wife and I are making an offer on a new house today. She's been unhappy with current house because it doesn't have a pool and she doesn't like the heat in the summer. Also, it has no gas cooking. If you're inclined (or even care), we're looking at this: https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/5500-Edgerton-Ave_Orlando_FL_32833_M50035-94593

Looks like a nice place. I especially liked the kitchen.

Cool! Nice to have a different view during quarantine.

 

[docsoliday1]

Not sure if I mentioned it here, but be very cautious and skeptical of any emails or web pages when referencing covid-19. A lot of *ssholes (and that's very strong language for me) out there trying to prey on peoples emotions. https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/alerts/aa20-099a

 

[pkondz]

We clearly don't...we let @pkondz in.

Nyah! You're too late! I already insulted myself!

See?

People are just scum. Some people, of course, not all.
And what you describe isn't all.
I have an acquaintance who worked for a large firm. Like many businesses, they have a lot of people working from home. Setting them up is a rather large undertaking in itself. The company got hacked, not sure how, but I'd guess because of the vast amount of people logging in to their business who have access. How hard would it be to call up a swamped IT department and say "I can't log in!"

 

[docsoliday1]

Nyah! You're too late! I already insulted myself!

Ya know I love ya brother (cue Randall and his in a very manly sort of way gif he loves). That's why I was joking and playing along with your gag.

I know that. Thought it was funny.

That's lovely. How have they done it? Crayon? I might get the kids on that.

We did Italy in the eating round the world challenge last night, so we had Chicken Milanese with Gelato, in Pinocchios Palace

Lady K managed to pick up real italian Gelato, called Grom. If you see it, buy it. It's fantastic.



Between this and the FB stuff, you've probably seen enough of my kids.

We clearly don't...we let @pkondz in.

I thought he'd just snuck in under some "essential worker" loophole.

We tried...they countered...not the best. On the other hand, when we consider what we paid for this house and what it would cost to add a pool and what it would cost to add gas/gas stove and what it would cost to add a shed for storage and this has 4x the land and 3 car garage, it's still a decent price...just not as good as we'd hoped.

I think thats a great way to look at it. If you're willing to pay what they ask.....it's a good deal. And don't let anyone tell ya different.

Here is another Zoom meet up for tomorrow night.

I'll be there in my nightcap and slippers.

Not a chance, keep the pics coming as it's putting a smile on my face every morning. Hope you're doing o.k. Dan, take care

Wish I could. It would be an appropriate time to open up an Oatmeal Stout, but I'm tied up with a work Zoom on how to be a beekeeper.
