This is very sad. He seemed like a really nice guy. Way too young :/

>>38165 nice! The flag of Wisconsin kinda shows it all, doesn't it?

Hmm. I wonder why the floor joists are rotting...

Still waiting for the old house to sell, but there is one couple very interested they just need a buyer for their house. The housing market is always quiet in winter but it'll pick up soon.

The new house is on hold until the old one sells, but I'm still visiting and doing a few jobs in the house and garden. The floor repairs will probably wait until I live there, but I'll probably do more investigating but taking up some floorboards once the weather is warmer.

No Wendy's where I live, nor 5 guys or white castle. I think I'm safe..for now.

We no longer need to visit Norway or Sweden for this anymore

On behalf of the British I must also decline...

Even though every male has technically already answered. I'll add that I, speaking for all Dutch males, will clearly and loudly decline too.

Happy birthday, mister!

They should donate them to a museum :D

I remember when people used to deliver yellow pages and the local phone book and for some reason it was always raining and they would just leave them outside house in the rain! They would end up completely useless :/

So I'm selling my house and buying another...

>>38130 It's the same thing here but we call it consent and certification.

I got to spend a few more hours at the house investigating over the weekend and uncovered some fairly rotten floor joists. In thins room, the worst affected, 5 of the 8 floor joists are rotting on one end :/

I had hoped it would only be a couple of bad joists but with this many I'll just replace all of them. I'm going to try and keep the original floorboards. When I replace the joists I'll also have an opportunity to insulated under the floor and improve the damp situation too. I might even add underfloor heating.

I'll need to contact building control and get advice on what permissions I need and probably talk to an expert to understand the best way to deal with the damp problem. Until I sell the other house I have limited funds but I'll do as much as I can before I move in.

I've seen a few bits of this game and it does look really fun. I'll probably pick it up at some point when it's on offer.

Currently playing Gods of War on PC. It's ok, not open enough for my liking and too much 'souls like' fighting too, but the story, puzzles and adventure are fun.

Well I survived and have an excess of food in the fridge. I am lacking a bit in alcohol though ;)

Yeah, we have cold weather too. It's snowing as I write this but I doubt I can make an atomically correct snowwoman. People are already skating and I would too, if I knew how and actually want it (I don't).
