    Second phone number without getting a second phone?

    Most phones over the past years have dual eSims for this purpose. I use the 2nd one on my iphone as a travel number so I can make local call aboard. Pretty sure there are apps to purchase a 2nd eSim without having to go to your mobile network provider.

    I also did a thing!

    Might as well put this out there, since a few of us have so far this year. My new ride, 2026 Honda Africa Twin ES! Whoohoo! :giggle: (y) Only been out on a few test rides to get familiar with the bike. So far so good. Break in is only 500k. Then first service at 1000km. Has almost...

    Anyone into gardening here?

    A few weeks ago I took advantage of the warm up we had and sowed some seeds. Just checked and the animals haven't eaten them yet, and I'm starting to see some poke through the dirt. I hope it work out.

    Plumber East End

    Update: Called around to some plumbers, the last 2 guys I called seem to be the best with both knowledge and pricing. The others were a bit sketchy with extra charges (machine charge), or wanting to do a site visit then do estimate (probably exorbitant pricing).

    Plumber East End

    Thanks Mike, yeah it does connect to sanitary. The city did dye testing last year because someone in the neighbourhood was contaminating the storm line. Not me, some idiot up the street connected a toilet to the wrong line. I saw the gobbler on Amazon, but it seems none of the regular retail...

    Plumber East End

    Actually I kinda know where the city portion starts. I don't have sidewalks here, and we have ditches for drainage, the city redid all the drainage pipes for the ditches, so they had to repave the end of the driveway. Maybe I should go paint a line at the drive and say this is what the plumber...

    Plumber East End

    Thanks Mike, Now that you mention this stuff, when I renovated the basement, we found a large 3" pipe behind a wall. Same side as the plumbing stack. It was already disconnected but ended close enough to the outside wall, and to the plumbing stack. This probably was the clean out. So that is a...

    Plumber East End

    Knowing how dumb the world is today with passing the buck, the plumber will say the clog is on the city side call them, the city will say no clean out so nothing, and I'll be left with no solution. 🤷‍♂️

    TV shows currently watching

    Recently finished up a complete re-watch of Game of Thrones, still great, and watching it this way, you don't miss any of the story bits, as a lot happens in that first season which comes back later on. S8 still was weaker then the rest, but not as bad as I initially remembered. Also finished...

    Plumber East End

    Oh here is a story for you, @GreyGhost you might like this. So I did call Rotorooter, just to see what their pricing is like etc. They did mention that the clog could be on the city portion of line, and they would come out and clear it. Ok cool, I do some more of my own DIY snaking just to make...

    Plumber East End

    Hey guys, Dealing with a clog, which is causing my main line drain to slowly release, and back up a bit. I've snaked it a few times (50ft and 100ft snakes), and rented a couple of augers from home depot without freeing up what's down there. Might be time to call a pro. Anyone have any...

    Why, why, why,

    So then they don't work always then. BTW that is not how they work. 😏

    Why, why, why,

    What I found they worked great on the highway, not so much on street riding with shorter turns.

    Anyone turkey hunting this weekend

    I have deer in my backyard all the time. In the winter they pass through and eat the cedars, even in the front yard. East end Toronto This was last week, besides the bad photo this guy was looking a bit rough.
