I'm sure Mericky is better in many ways.

Over there you can get anything at any time.
In Britain it's a case of "when the shops are open, and even then they'll probably not have what you're after" kinda thing.

I went to a DIY Centre to get some wood, screws, hinges and clasps to build my own cue case.
They didn't have any of what I was after. A DIY& Centre which had no wood or screws. Welcome to Britain.
The grass is always greener on the other side of the pond.
I kinda wanna move to England, but I'm sure the idea of moving there is better than the reality of it.
Didn't notice until just now, but last week we tied the all-time spam removal speed record. Cool.

Wow. :O

I've just had the old eBay double whammy.

Sold my Chromecast (made a profit on it actually, which is weird) but the buyer's gone to ground and won't pay. The money from the Chromecast was going towards a new mouse ... and the seller went strangely silent after it didn't turn up.

The moment it crosses 100 the "Check Engine" light comes on. Heh.
That's weird. My recollection is that we sold that Corsica up here to some guy who buys cars for parts (once it was really run into the ground). Did you give it back to us when you bought the Buick?
