Congratulations !

Thanks!

They both attended a STEM Academy, think of it as a state funded school which is run like a private Academy. Some are run by school businesses, others by colleges and universities. Sparks didn't fly until they got to university.

Congratulations !

Update: our grandson popped the question to his lady love and she accepted. They have not set a date yet, but they are such a cute couple.

Told the daughter "you do realize you are one hot night away from being a grandma?"

I thought she was going to throw a couch at me....

[Elie]

Good to see you around Elie, are you still practicing martial arts?

[Umfriend]

Hi there!
I am getting old of course, and grumpy, but yeah, I would like this site to stay.

[Elie]

Hello again folks!!
I see Master Doc busy posting his usual stuff, keep it up buddy!
LOL, since 2022 wow been a while, nothing changed much, my son is now 9 years old playing AA hockey so yeah my life still revolves around his curriculum.
Still married, so that is a good thing I still see the same people here! Should keep visiting, this site is awesome!

I once posted a photo of a piece of fiber cable after I got FTTH.... Does that count?

Problem is that now it is far too messy: some wardrobes were taken down but then we got flooded with work so we did not manage to put new ones. And whenever we have time, something else comes up (e.g. the tap issue, tv at aunt, ...). So now it is not really in a state I want to share photos of...

[Umfriend]

I FEEL CHEATED!

have we ever seen the pics of you renovated appartment?

[VJ]

And we still haven't seen pics IIRC...

You are really twisting my arm here... but ok... here you go:

(it looks worse IRL: the knob is more than 1mm offset to the back and the gap on the back is also much bigger than on the front)

[Umfriend]

And we still haven't seen pics IIRC...

Doc used to post a lot of space-related updates... nice to have the updates, but now he hasn't posted in a while...

Two kids at university... Where are the times when we ourselves were there. I think I've been on murc for almost 25 years... Still a bit of a shame it got so quiet here... I check almost every day and try to post some things every now and then.

(If I come round to writing it, I may have a rant-post coming up on the replacement of a showerfaucet . It is a wild story, from malfunctioning main valves, delivery of a faulty tap, service visits and need for a virtually non-existent custom key to install it... Beware if you consider the Grohe GrohTerm 2000... umfriend will probably have some apartment related comments...)
