Yes, that does look amazing. A blank wall with water damage.

Just wait until your frendly Bel Nor Building Inspector Bitch finds
out you have mold in a boarding house. And that you called her a
bitch.

For now, leave it alone to dry. That's water damage from your
old roof and your roofers haven't even gotten to that side
yet. Wait until they complete your entire roof then deal with
it.
 
Starting right over your window, maybe pull off another strip
or two to see if it's wet there but I would stop with just
the front wall.
 
Since you can pull it right off, reminds me of a special
wallpaper that's almost canvas-like cloth and thick.
Often used to seal up old plaster rather than have to replaster
the wall. That wallpaper is meant to be painted over.
 
Again...wait until your roof is all finished and the leaks
are fixed (for the next 300 years).

Yep! I can't wait, and yes I turn a fan on it to dry it out as much as possible. And I will, I will get up with the sandpaper and smooth it out as much as possible, then paint it over directly, after it is dry! I will get some mold killer and spray it on first too, maybe.

Perhaps I do too. I rarely answer unless I recognize the number.

Ah. Mine's 6-7 feet tall with concrete block walls and a concrete

How tall is yours?

That clear ice is cool but I wouldn't need that for daughter.
She makes coffee and immediately turns it into ice coffee.
She only uses one tray per visit.
 
Interestingly, when the swamps of my local state park freezes
over (not for many years now), it's perfectly clear ice. You
can walk over it and see the bottom perfectly about 12" down.
 
Any other ponds or lakes here freeze to frosty ice.

With the pandemic I notice many more bikes around, that's good, we
have long had bike lanes that nobody seemed to use.

In U.S. spelling, practice is always correct and practise is
always incorrect.

HOT GERMAN POTATO SALAD
Origin: Dorothy Glaeser
 
 
8 Slices of bacon, diced. Fry until done but not crispy. Remove from
the pan and drain
Keep 4 Tablespoons bacon fat in the pan.
Saute (in the bacon fat) until golden, one large onion, diced.
Add: 4 Tablespoons white sugar
2 Tablespoons white flour
1 teaspoon table salt
Add: ¼ cup white vinegar
1 ½ cups water
Stir over medium heat until smooth.
Use red skinned potatoes, about 3 pounds. Boil them whole until a
paring knife just pierces the potato. Peel and slice the potatoes. I
slice each potato into the sauce separately so that the potatoes don't
stick together.
Stir in the bacon.
Keep warm until service

If that seems like too much sugar, one could cut back on it. I
have a recipe that uses none (but less vinegar, IIRC). I posted
it on RFC a couple of weeks ago.

Most of that is because you allow your neighbors downspouts to drain
into your property. It's also creating small sinkholes under your
driveway, which is why it's all cracked up.
 
But he has you by the balls (and up the rear) on the driveway
easement.

You know that AT&T *is* SWBell, right? And didn't you say you had
VoIP? And you know your flip phone is tracking you VIA cell towers,
right?

i'm sure that since 2011 they've figured it out.
 
i have a filter basket that works fine so i wouldn't
use a paper filter. but we don't make coffee from
grounds any more and i rarely drink coffee (maybe
once a month) anyways.

peel and boil taters (or if not going to peel then
you can scrub 'em), chunk 'em, add whatever vinegar
you like along with fried onions and bacon. but
perhaps you don't like fried onions and mushy bacon?
 
i'm pretty happy with apple cider vinegar, some
sugar and fried onions. i don't need any meat at all.
 
if i do want bacon i prefer it crunchy and on top
not all mushy and mixed in.
 
adjust all ingredients and proportions to taste.
 
we just made german potato salad yesterday and
it's ok. i like it both cold and warmed up or hot.
with or without meats. with or without onions but i
do prefer it with. bacon, definitely like it much
better crumbled on top at the last moments. sometimes
i've eaten the bacon and had it sizzle the saliva in
my mouth as i've forgotten how hot it can get in
the microwave. freaked out my nephew some days ago.
he thought i really burned my tongue.
