They’re confidential informants where I’m from - regional differences isn’t surprising, wonder how it’s abbreviated for other languages.

I agree. Further to that I believe protocol is that when speaking, one must address their comments to the speaker as opposed to any member in the chamber. It is mostly decorum and intended to keep a lid on tempers and direct personal exchanges that can flare up into a hubbub. Speaker is intended to be the impartial head master of the school he oversees and keep the house in order and apply the rules fairly. As you well will have seen - there are varying degrees of success in that pursuit.

It’s sounds counter intuitive but paddling is wonderful and easy to become addicted. I have found it’s almost meditative for me and I love being on the water. It can def lead to calluses on your palms but I don’t find a great deal of pressure on individual fingers the way climbing holds can exert. It’s uniform and you can control how hard you push yourself. It’s not like “if I don’t use 100% I’m gonna fall”.

Food for thought maybe…

Good luck finding a new adventure!

Kept watching hoping to see him make the shot. My god he got close a few times.

Have you ruled out other types of fumes? Eg fresh paint, perfume, scented oil diffusers etc.

Sorry, trying to follow here. Three locations: front door, kitchen and living room. 4 detectors: original front door, new front door, kitchen and living room?

Original front door went off in situ and in the living room while holding it?

New front door went off at front door. Swapped NFD with living room - NFD went off in living room.

Moved NFD to kitchen and it went off in there too?

Where are the K and LV detectors now? Have any of those gone off anywhere in the house? Are THEY functional? (Sorry if you already said, I’m trying to piece the bits together and mighta missed that)

Owning your computer is an ILLUSION

I’ll take a shot at the metaphor. Delete: telling someone they can use the whiteboard (but you didn’t erase it) Secure: cleaning it off when you’re done for the next user.

How has no one said - Roman Ramen.

It is because everything must end that everything is so beautiful.

Get some enzyme spray specifically for addressing pet urine. There are lots of varieties online from pet warehouse places. Nature’s Miracle is a popular one. Get the urine destroyer, the stain and odour eliminator isn’t as good.

It actually breaks down the urine residue as opposed to the other suggestions here which mask or encapsulate the smell without addressing the source.

I have used enzyme on quite a few things I thought would never be usable again - def worth their weight in gold in my experience.

Jaime is an adorable floof!

I must know the source of your magic pineapple blanket that elicits these floompfs please?

That’s cos you like boobies instead!

Colloquially a “blast from the past”

What a nutsack!

Hey buddy, I don’t want to alarm you, I had a friend lose their cat very suddenly to a saddle thrombosis - which is a blood clot that can block blood flow to the rear legs and become catastrophic. It can happen suddenly and can cause loss of control of bowels, difficulty in rear legs, panting, expressions of pain from cat - ie meowing or howling. Did your vet mention/ rule this out when you saw them?

There’s a link below which explains it fairly well in layman terms. I hope it’s unlikely, it is very serious and early intervention is important and gives the best chance to your little guy. I’d feel bad having seen what my friend went through and not sharing the possibility with you.
