Meryn’s discerning eyes

Vaillant Calormatic 392 digital modulating thermostat. Our dear neighbor helped us install it. It should save us some energy relative to our old on/off thermostat too.

My mother could pick up our next LED lightbulb for free at the supermarket. This is a nation-wide promotion for a brand called Pharox, sponsored by a big Dutch lottery. Aside from a slightly different metal enclosure, it looks strikingly similar to the Albert Heijn LED bulb I bought some time ago, so they could very well be technologically equivalent.

A historic moment, I'd say. Unfortunately I couldn't find a higher
quality image. It's A 6W dimmable LED lamp - meant to replace a 60W
incandescent light bulb - from Albert Heijn, the biggest supermarket
chain in The Netherlands.

It's a Philips Clock Radio AJ3231. It's one of the few acceptable looking alarm clocks that I could find. The radio function is of not much importance to me. The designs somewhat makes me think of an iMac.

A Samsung SGH-M150. Ain't it pretty? I got it for free in return from putting some money into a savings account half a year ago or so. I only now have got the sim-lock removed. Notice the luxurious texture of the surface behind the keys.

I feel a bit cheap because I have installed it on two computers (my iMac and my Macbook Pro), but haven't bought the family pack.

My original battery was totally dead. Im gonna treat this one more carefully.

It's called the Batava Entrada Spirit. No-nonsense utility bike, but good-looking if you ask me!
