Regenbogen:
The kids were very happy with the snow. But we were not quite so happy with the storm. It made a hole in our roof. I fixed it for the day with a sheet of plastic I nailed onto the roof. My husband came with some new tiles in the afternoon. There is a factory near his workplace and they were nice and gave him some tiles as a gift. He should do some advertising for them in return.


Mary Poppins: I'm going to ask around if anybody has the DVD. If not I'm thinking of buying it. Amazon has it for €7,99. Or I can borrow it for €1,99 on amazon prime. But I think buying might be better. So we can watch it several times every few months and it would be ours. Though I'm not sure yet. I would like best to borrow it from a person. In case I don't want to watch it several times.

Dina:
@Regen, yes, I think trying to borrow it is the best option. I wish I could lend you my copy (Yes, I own one). I suggest to ask at your children school. Some parents may have it.
And that is very bad about the roof! But at least your husband came with tiles. And what kind of advertising? (if you want to tell, of course)

Doroga's Cousin:
Fcrate has it right, Dina. Discord is a more text-based version of teamspeak. And you don't have to pay for the server, which is a nice bonus. :P

Dina:
Ah, I can see how that helps  :)
Well, I am very glad you have your friend back in Discord then. Are you having fun?

Regenbogen:
About the roof tiles advertising: LOL
My husband went to the hardware store with the one intact tile and asked if they had some. They guy in the shop didn't find any identification on the tile and told him, these must be special ones. He doesn't know if anyone has them. Doesn't even know where they were made. My husband asked if the guy could go looking if they were in storage. He told him no, he has never seen them.
So my husband was frustrated and drove to the factory to ask if they could make him some from the sample he brought and told them about the guy in the shop. The guy in the factory took one look on the tile and laughed his a... of. Because those are a type of simple standard tiles produced in our country for more then 60 years and he was surprised the guy in the hardware store didn't recognize them. When my husband asked if he could buy about 20 tiles, the guy laughed and told him just to take some from over there and tell people where he got them from so they are even.


We watched the 6th episode of Picard yesterday. So excited about the next one!!!
