No, not a clue, for the Dutch all US drinks are slighly colored water.
The Irish have no business having issues here; they're colonized not colonizing.
Which, itself, comes from Malaysia?
Somehow I expect we can rely on her to realize that digressions into Uileann pipes, tea, and the like are mildly amusing diversions. Or do you want to write up the rules on just how much digression is permitted? I look forward to seeing them.
That's the spirit. One of the things I really like about this forum is the meandering nature of threads. I get enough of rules and parameters in my work at a hospital, on a web forum I prefer things to take an organic route.
Can you educate us on Texas ?
I am having this vision of a cow in front of a Snellen chart trying to pronounce the letters and it was an udder failure.
Thanks for asking about Texas. I haven't been here long. Just over a decade... in that short span of time central TX has grown like crazy. I normally avoid Austin because of the traffic. It was a much more charming city before the traffic became unbearable. Still, there's a lot of great places to eat and great coffee shops. Texas Coffee Traders, Greater Goods, Afuga coffee, etc... A few popular places have a cool atmosphere, but horrible coffee so I won't mention those, lol. As far as music venues, I wish I knew where the saxophone players perform. Most venues I've been to have folk or rock bands playing... would love to hear some big band/swing/classical performed live. Admittedly, I haven't visited many. I'll need to remedy that once my kiddos get a bit older and I have more free time. 😅
There are no exact rules. Ideally none but more than 5% may be starting to get too much but all depends on the type of thread. I’ve started a new thread to discuss off topic here. Threads going too much off topic is not a good thing for the forum re:SEO.
@LostCircuits Do you have a favorite leather conditioner product that you’d recommend?🙏 I see a lot of different recommendations in the forum, but was curious if you had a fav for using on older style pads. I’m currently reading through this thread again and taking notes. I want to place on order on Music medic for oil, etc… and wanted to buy some conditioner as well.
@PenelopeTX, for the cleaning and conditioning I am just using some stuff I got from the local supermarket, it's called "Leather Conditioner" by Chemical Guys but I am sure anything else will work just fine. If I have really old pads that are not waterproofed, I sometimes use Mink Oil from Designer Shoe Warehouse but you need to make sure you polish off any residue, otherwise the pads may get sticky. It'll also darken the pads a bit, probably depending on the age of the pads. Alternatively you can use any of the shoe waterproofing stuff but the key is always to use things sparingly and do a good cleanup afterwards.
Up against that 'slightly coloured water' the Dutch have Advocaat.
After a couple shots of that, the technician has a good time repadding that Buescher True Tone 1926 C Melody Sax?
This is great. Pretty sure we have decent leather conditioner in the closet somewhere. Good to know I can use normal shoe stuff and won't have to try to find something special online.
