    Dd has plumber problems. She got a quite high estimate but agreed to the price. He showed up to start work and told dd there was not enough room in small bathroom and he left. Bathroom was reversed and made bigger. Plumber shows up again and works? a couple hours. Hasen't been seen since.

    Well, speak of the plumber. He is supposed to be here Monday. Told dd he had an emergency situation.

    Hope it isn't like the jerk I hired for some work, went like this:
    Didn't show up, said his truck broke down, rescheduled...his workers got Covid, rescheduled...he got Covid, rescheduled....family emergency, rescheduled.....had to reorder supplies, rescheduled....didn't show, said he meant May, not April. After over 6 months, I gave up and took a loss.

    He really doesn't want to deal with dd. A few years ago a large tree fell on this house. Destroyed the kids bedroom. (Thankfully he wasn't in it.) Also a ton of damage to the rooms under. Dd hired the biggest local builder and insurance paid. Several things weren't done as dd wanted. Before she was done he sent a crew back to fix what should have been done in the first place. She will not take a loss.

    Yes, the next "logical" step, since the inspectors have been through. Can't close up the walls before that :)
    The inspector hasn't signed off yet. He just wanted a few more staples on the wires and that has been done but I don't think he's been back yet.

    Mixed my OSDIY strawberry one-shot. There were only 2 reviews there. One said mix it at 10% and add a little FA Meringue so that's what I did.

    Left it for 3 or 4 days, figured that was enough for a one-shot. Turned out really nice. My previous attempts at strawberry didn't work out because I really couldn't taste strawberry. Now I have 6 fruit mixes going.

    I'm getting a shopping list together which will include several strawberries so I can try to make my own version.

    Another small hill reduced to ashes. Mostly. I "stage" the debris around the pit, and the bottom couple inches is still too soggy. Spread it around to dry, the hill will probably still have enough heat tomorrow to finish.

    The inspector hasn't signed off yet. He just wanted a few more staples on the wires and that has been done but I don't think he's been back yet.

    Ah, then they shouldn't put up the dry wall yet. Unless on good terms with the inspector :) (That does happen sometimes, when the inspector and contractor have "worked" together before and there's an element of trust.)

    Good evening. Yet another weekend with no reviews to write. I’m getting spoiled.

    I picked up a pulse v2 on the classifieds today. I figured it wouldn’t hurt to have another squonk mod and it was a good price.

    Another Pico biting the dust, I can only read the screen with the high power magnifier now. Thought I would pick up a bagful more of them. Thought I got lucky, Wet Vape and MVS both have them on sale for $14 but when you go to select a color there are no options. Are those two places linked? They seem to have the same pictures, prices, and availability for several products.

    Vapesourcing has them for $30. Only black is left in stock.

    Apart from that, any recommendations for other cheap basic mods?

    Any opinions on the Innokin Z80 mod? They are going for $40. At $10 more than the Pico it might be a good choice, especially if the screens don't fail after a few years. I think I've heard them well spoken of.
    I’d say get it. I have two.
