@Jett129 Do you combine it with a Claritin or other pill form med?

[J-IV]

@Jett129 thank you and noted!
@goosehd Good question - my allergies are pretty stubborn so I was planning to do so anyways..

[Jett129]

@goosehd Absolutely not,the whole purpose of using this method is not to have to take anything else.

[goosehd]

@Jett129 Thank you! Next time I’m out I will look for some. I normally can make it through the spring, but the fall (grasses and ragweeds) kill me.

[Jett129]

@goosehd I get it now and then again mid August until the first frost. Stocked up today.

[goosehd]

The may sounds strange, but I’m actually excited to try it out. I normally dread this time of year…

[chrisjohnnick]

dang y'all, I think I may just go out and grab some of that tomorrow as well!

[Matt]

We use it t as well.

i was hoping to be posting in the red wings thread tonight as well as the recent purchases thread with my first pair of red wings with the grand opening of the new store in Kitchener Ontario.
but they didn't have my number 1 or 2 choice in stock yet

[EdH]

Bloody postman said they attempted to deliver my 316 shirt but I was home all day and there was no knock at the door or slip to say they missed me.

[goosehd]

@EdH I have a UPS driver that must be a relative…

Apparently some guy got into some trouble a couple og thousand years ago and as a result everything in Norway closes for a week once a year. And I always bloody forget.

[Tago Mago]

@neph93 In Germany we call it Tanzverbot (dancing ban). One of the many privileges the Catholic and Lutheran churches still enjoy here, although it varies between states

[endo]

I always like this week. One of my annual highlights. But here shops are only closed friday, sunday and monday.

[neph93]

@Tago-Mago that same dancing ban was still in effect when I moved here, as was any form of card-playing. It’s gone now as things relax a bit. But the whole separation of church and state takes time, it would seem.

Having walked around town in the sunshine all day (without being able to buy a coffee), I’ll downgrade this rant to a moan. Some cafe’s and restaurants are opening at 3pm. Although only the small ones run by immigrants. Multiculturalism for the win.

[neph93]

@endo it has its good sides for sure. It’s beautifully quiet around town as anyone with access to a cabin (most ethnic Norwegians) is there. It also usually coincides with the first period of warmer weather (3-10C), and the days are already decently long. The cultural/historical hangover is a massive PITA though.

[endo]

Mentally it‘s the end of winter, irrespective of the actual temperature or what‘s still coming.

[neph93]

^true story

[Matt]

So Footloose? @neph93 you need to liberate the town through dance. Why haven’t you done this yet?

[neph93]

@Matt Yes! I can see it now, me gambolling along the high street in Wesco’s, with a bum knee, like a geriatric Fame vignette. An inspiration to all. I’ll get right onto it. Not.
