Okoume Plywood veneer
I am constructing new doors for the companionway using the existing ones as a template. I have learned that the existing doors are plywood with a okoume veneer and I am going to construct something similar. Can I do this using any plywood - such a birch - or should I start with a mahogany plywood?
You can of course make the doors out of just about anything. If this project is expected to last however "big box store" wood, either mahogany or birch will not last too long. In fact it could fail in only a season or two. Real marine plywood has thicker surface veneers, higher quality interior veneers and interior veneers with no voids.
If you let us know where you are from I suspect some regular members will be able to help you with sourcing.
Also the design is an issue so you will get a better answer with pictures.
Like Dave suggests, standard plywood is likely to end up giving you headaches. The marine ply can also come in varying degrees of quality. It may not have voids, but may have football patches, for example, depending upon the manufacturer or type of wood. Whatever you do, be sure to epoxy-coat the exposed edges. This will keep them from absorbing water (there WILL be water- it's a boat!) and delaminating. Even marine ply with its more water-resistant glues will delaminate if it repeatedly gets wet. Trying to save weight by going too thin is also not a good idea. If a crew gets thrown against it and it never shuts properly again, you'll have to do it all over again - heavier - anyway.
Thanks for the responses. I am from north of Toronto, and I sail on Lake Huron. I am planning to use the okoume veneer and will attach it to 1/2" plywood. I am thinking that 2mm veneer should be sufficient. What type of plywood would you suggest that I start with?
Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but reading your note above, it sounds as though you plan to put a veneer layer over a piece of standard plywood?:confused: That is really going about things the hard way.
My suggestion would be to purchase a sheet of marine plywood of appropriate thickness for the job. This marine ply would already have the veneer on the outer layers. No need to purchase a separate veneer layer. If your boat has a teak interior, you can even get teak-veneers.
Why not get Okoume marine plywood? It would already have the finish you want.
Here is the local place I use, but any good lumber yard can order it for you. http://www.theworkbench.com/pdf/plywood.pdf (it's page 15 on this pdf)
Ebay has everything! Thank you.

Salman gifts Raj Kapoor painting to Ranbir
Even as they were shooting, Ranbir got very emotional because they were shooting at RK Studios. An emotion-filled Ranbir said that his grandfather (the late Raj Kapoor) shot his first film Aag in that studio, while his dad (Rishi Kapoor) shot for his first film Bobby there and now he too was shooting at the same place! Salman made the evening even more memorable for the teenage heartthrob Ranbir by presenting him a painting of Raj Kapoor that he specially painted for the chalet he has at RK. Way to go, Salman!

I called Verizon and asked for their help regarding this. I spoke to a nice man and he told that my daughter authorized this and asked him how is that possible it had to do with something on the internet. Well I expalined to him she is a minor and he removed the item and all future charges.
So of course I need to speak with my daughter about this she swears up and down that she did not authorize anything. Come to find out when she was on her myspace page she clicked on those free ringtone adds and without her knowing automatically signed up for ILD Teleservices inc.

CENTRAL BANKS & DATA STOKE BULLS 3 comments
Jobless Claims (348Kvs 365K expected and prior 358K); Housing Starts (.699M vs .675M and prior .657M) & Building Permits (.676M vs .684M expected and prior .671M); and, Philly Fed (10.2 vs 9.5 expected and prior 7.3). These were all good reports.
Moody's like other rating ("ratting"?) agencies states it will lower ratings on 17 major banks from JP Morgan (NYSE:JPM), Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) and Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS). It's hard to trust rating agencies given their habit of being late to the obvious. They're the most fee-conflicted organizations on the planet. Despite Moody's warnings all the mentioned bank stocks rallied powerfully.
General Motors (NYSE:GM) earnings ($.39 vs $.42 expected) report falls short of expectations but the stock rallies over 8%, Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) reported results that missed and offered future guidance below expectations but the stock reversed heavy losses to close up over 1% on analysts' "hopes"; and, after the close results from Nordstrom (NYSE:JWN) $1.11 vs $1.09 expected (stock lower late), NetApp (NASDAQ:NTAP) reported earnings that much lower than a year ago but "after adjustments" matched estimates so naturally the stock rallied over 7%. Lastly, Applied Materials (NASDAQ:AMAT) reported substantially lower earnings but beat expectations and the shares were 4% higher late.
We can't go a day without discussing the Greek situation now can we? European shares fell early as EU finance ministers didn't like Samara's postscript that "adjustments" to their agreement may be necessary. But later conditions reversed course on a report the ECB would exchange Greek bonds for new securities. Translated this means Greek junk sovereigns will now be the property of the central bank and they'll have to pretend they don't exist for a long time.Stocks: SPY, IWM, QQQ, AAPL, NTAP, XLK, AMZN, FDN, NVDA, AMAT, SOXX, GM, XLI, JWN, XRT, XLB, VNQ, MS, C, BAC, KBE, KRE, XLF, IEF, UUP, FXE, FXA, GLD, GDX, SLV, JJC, DJP, USO, UGA, IXC, EEM, EWJ, EWC, EWG, EWH, EWY, ILF, EPI, GXCBack To David Fry's Instablog HomePage »

The Wednesday Surprise
by Eve Bunting
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Anna and Grandma are planning a surprise for Dad's birthday. Dad thinks he has received all his presents, but Grandma stands up and gives him the best one of all: she reads aloud the stories that Anna has taught her.
It sure surprised me! These are the kind of people who we should admire as heroes, imo. Those among us who do the smart problem-solving and the humble good deeds are the best role models for all of us.
The Wednesday Surprise was a timeless story that I very much enjoyed. Eve Bunting is able to build suspense, and the paintings are very intricate, which allow for foreshadowing to take place. From the beginning of the story, Bunting builds suspense and keeps the reader's guessing. She says, "I like surprises. But the one Grandma and I are planning for Dad's birthday is the best surprise of all." Most readers would guess that they're getting Dad an awesome material gift, but that isn't the case. Bunting also makes the text seem ordinary, in order to not give away the surprise. For example, she says, "We read the story together, out loud…" This is very typical of a Grandmother and her granddaughter, but we're not seeing everything yet.
I also loved the paintings in the story. They enhance the text and enable foreshadowing. In one of the pictures, the young girl is breathing into the window, and she draws a picture of a cake. In the text, she says, "I watch for her from the window and I blew on the glass to make breath pictures." The picture of the cake makes readers think about having a party for Dad, and get them thinking about what the surprise might be.
The central message of the story is that it is never too late to learn to read. No one should be embarrassed that they can't read because of their age. The surprise in the story was that it was actually Grandma who learned to read – not the granddaughter. The mom asks, "When did you learn to read?" Grandma says, "Anna taught me." This shows that anyone can teach anyone to read, no matter how old you might be. Reading is a gift that should be given to everyone; it doesn't discriminate.
The ending was indeed a surprise. It was also delightful.
A story of a little girl teaching her grandmother to read.

That rockslide occurred just after 6:00pm near the Palisade exit along Interstate 70.
Eyewitnesses tell 11 News they heard a loud, thundering noise, then saw rocks from top of the Bookcliffs come crashing down.
No rocks landed on the Interstate and traffic continues to move as normal.
Officials say deputies are out there to watch for any more slides and to make sure rocks stay off the roadway.

What is cacao? Cacao is known as the food (or drink) of the Gods! It has been traced back to the Maya people who were thought to be the first to cultivate the cacao plant around 400AD. The plant that is recognised today is actually a result of cross selection that started over 35,000 years
Chocolate & Strawberry Muffins (Nut Free, Paleo)
Chocolate and strawberries are two wonderful foods that, when combined together, create a rather luscious duo. These paleo, and nut-free, chocolate strawberry muffins are not only scrumptious and handy for the lunch-box (including the kiddies), but they also contain lots of hidden nutrients. Let me explain!

A litany of IT shortcomings will put the Census Bureau at the mercy of hackers and other nefarious activity until the agency implements a comprehensive information security program, according to the Government Accountability Office.
A report released Feb. 20 concluded that although the Census Bureau has taken steps to protect the information and systems that support its mission, it has not effectively adopted appropriate information security controls to protect those systems.
Security controls are used to regulate who or what can access the bureau's systems. Census officials, for example, did not adequately control connectivity to key network devices and servers or identify and authenticate users. They also failed to limit user access rights and permissions, encrypt data, monitor systems and network or ensure appropriate physical security controls were adopted.
The main reason for these flaws is the agency's lack of a sweeping information security program to ensure controls are effectively established and maintained. The Federal Information Security Management Act requires all agencies to create and adopt an information security program.
The agency also failed to keep certain security management program policies current and had not revised its IT security program and policies since April 2010. Intra-agency guidelines require Census to update its policies at least once a year.
"Until the bureau implements a complete and comprehensive security program, it will have limited assurance that its information and systems are being adequately protected against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, modification, disruption or loss," GAO warned.

The agency is making strides in developing and deploying border technologies but still has some weaknesses.
What a lame excuse!!! "One reason the audit may show the Bureau in an unflattering light is that it was conducted while the agency was moving to a new security framework". (http://www.csoonline.com/article/729281/gao-raps-census-bureau-s-data-protection-practices) Come on Brian McGrath. You really don't expect the public to buy into your excuse do you. I don't think you're taking your job seriously. If I were the Director I would fire you. Under Title 13 of the U.S. Code, Census Bureau employees are subject to a $250,000 fine and/or 5 years in jail if confidentiality is breached. So does this mean the information can be stolen and everything is OK as long as nobody reports it??? The title 13 and title 26 data could have been stolen right now, but no one is aware of it and that makes it alright because ignorance, stupidity, laziness, and incompetence pays off. Is that the message you want the public to see. Kind of like being a weather-man isn't it. You can be 50% wrong and still keep your job. Better yet someone will get promoted.
I have learned from many years of first hand experience that many weaknesses in IT and IT Security are found in non-compliance of a few players in the organization. Many of these non-players have been the heros of the past when we had to throw it together for the mission and come back later if there's time to address security. But with proper Planning and Authority placed in the right areas the old days don't have to exist anymore and an organization can mature to a proper level of capabilities, control and compliance. But until the heros of old are put in their place an organization will be held hostage by the heros and their egos of the past.
It's quite a leap to assume that Census is a month behind in patching because an explanation was offered to refute the false claim that workstations are "not patched regularly". Patches are released in sync with Microsoft. Microsoft typically releases patches on the same Tuesday every month. It's know as patch Tuesday. Once the patches are tested they are deployed, usually within a few days of the release. Patches released at other times are known as "out of band" patches and are tested and released in a similar way, but not according to a regular schedule because they aren't released according to a regular schedule. The accusations in the first post were wild exaggerations not based in fact. The person who made them sounded bitter and so do you.
To the person that stated patches are applied monthly. You basically admitted that your patches are a month behind. Pathetic.
Previous comment regarding patching is incorrect. patches are deployed to Census workstations monthly in sync with Microsoft releases and audits are performed. Sounds like and unhappy camper.

For whatever reason, the PLESK control panel doesn't allow you to edit permissions for subdomains. After a discussion with my hosts, 34SP, they suggested I run a one click install for PHPFastCGI.
On the one hand, this seems to have done the trick. My file permissions are now correct so I can upload images to blog posts, install/upgrade plug-ins and so on. Previously I had to do this via FTP.
Unfortunately, two plug-ins stopped working (as a result?)
- Sexy Bookmarks
- Thumblated Related
Sexy Bookmarks vanished from sight. I have tried all of the options, including manual positioning (copy/paste code into single.php).
Thumblated Related options have vanished (the boxes are blank) and no matter what I try, it will not let me save updates.
For the time being both have been deleted.
I tried the following:
- tinkered with settings
- deactivate/reactivate
- delete/reinstall (via WordPress & FTP)
- delete, remove references from WP_options in My SQL, reinstall
Sadly, nothing it working.
Any help would be most appreciated. These are (were?) my most useful plug-ins and I'd really like to have them working again :)
My blog is over at http://ceo.smartergroup.biz
Thanks in advance,

Definition of objective correlative in English:
objective correlative
The artistic and literary technique of representing or evoking a particular emotion by means of symbols that objectify that emotion and are associated with it.

"Hawley's introduction is a model of what such a thing should be (for an undergraduate audience): full of information, but not too pushy. She manages to touch on a truly remarkable number of important bases in just a few pages an impressive accomplishment. The notes are good, too. This is the best edition out there for college students." Douglas Patey, Sophia Smith Professor of English, Smith College"

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO) -- David Jones scored a power-play goal 4:17 into overtime and Peter Budaj stopped 37 shots, helping the Colorado Avalanche snap a two-game skid with a 4-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday night.
The Bulldogs (4-6) jumped out to an 18-7 lead at the end of the first quarter, but saw that lead quickly disappear. Central (1-9) will go for its second straight win on Friday when they host Uintah (UT).

Finding Amy's videos when I need them
Is there a way to search for a particular video on this site? I haven't found a way to do it. I never seem to be able to find the video I want, when I want it. If I go to the Knitting Help youtube channel I can search and usually find it, but I'd really like to not have to do it that way. What am I missing?
There's a video tab at the top of the page... Mostly the sections are self explanatory. Increases, decreases, cast ons and advanced techniques like fair isle, intarsia, DPN, etc. Tips are fixing mistakes, joining, center pull ball,... You remember them on your own after awhile. :lol:
I don't use YouTube for KH videos. I use the app or the forum video tab.
Do you have an example? I went to the search box and the very top of the screen (all the way to the right) and typed in:
video: cast on
...and it came back with a list of videos about casting on.
But not all the videos are listed on the video page. On the Increases page there used to be links to the purl increases below the descriptions and link for the knit ones. I've asked if those links can be put in somewhere because telling someone that m1p is the same as m1k except you purl it often doesn't work for everyone.
The Glossary page also has links to many of the videos that aren't covered by the main Video pages - ptbl, double decreases, k-b for k1below and several others. That's probably the best index we have though.
I hadn't noticed that, Sue. I see there are some links on the glossary page though so that is certainly something to check if you don't find what you want. The app has some on the specific section fortunately.
I decided to try the circular gauge swatch video and tried searching for it, no videos came up but there were threads. I think I'm just dense. I never remember which section some videos are in. The cast ons or increases and decreases are pretty easy to find but some are just more elusive. I'll just not worry about it and post links for whatever videos I find. It's just that I'd rather post links for KH videos whenever I can.
Try the Tips page for it, maybe Adv Techniques.

Shelton State men advance to ACCC championship game
Published: Saturday, March 10, 2012 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 9, 2012 at 11:48 p.m.
TUSCALOOSA | The Shelton State men's basketball team was able to withstand a late surge by Lawson State to take a 96-85 win in the semifinals of the Alabama Community College Conference Region XXII Basketball Tournament Friday night on the Shelton State campus.
"I was just real proud of our guys," Shelton State coach Barry Mohun said. "I thought we came out with a lot of intensity. In the second half, overall we were able to wear them down some and you have to give them credit. They made a lot of big shots there late to get the game a lot closer but I was just proud of our guys overall. It was a good team win."
The Buccaneers built an early 25-10 lead, sparked by former Northridge standout Kwame Beard's five 3-pointers in the first seven minutes of the game.
"I thought he was shooting the ball well tonight," Mohun said. "It was good to see him in that groove. He's been overcoming some injuries throughout the year, so it's nice to see the old Kwame back."
Beard finished the game with 26 points on 9 of 15 shooting. Nick McHenry had 11 points, five assists and five rebounds. Ladarius Tabb and Antjuan Ball each scored 10 points for Shelton State (28-3). The leading rebounder was Travis Daniels with nine rebounds.
The Buccaneers built its largest lead in the second half at 24 points. Lawson State pulled within nine points in the final minute of the game. That's the closest the Cougars would get.
Lawson State was led by Charles Eaton with 21 points and six rebounds. Chris Kingsberry added 19 points. Lebron King scored 15 points. Kegan Tarver had 13 points and seven rebounds.
Now, the Buccaneers shift its focus to tonight's championship game with Wallace State-Hanceville at 7:30 p.m.
"It's something we work real hard for. Our guys work real hard," Mohun said. "I know we'll be looking forward to it. We've got a big challenge ahead of us with Wallace-Hanceville and we just have to come ready to play."
In other semifinal action, Wallace State-Hanceville took a 74-60 win over Jefferson Davis to advance to the finals. Hanceville's Jacquise Moore scored a team-high 21 points with eight rebounds. Jeremy McKay added 20 points and 12 rebounds. Jefferson Davis was led by Brandon Scott with 22 points and eight rebounds. Turmonte Ragland scored 20 points.

Recruit student volunteers with the Kleine Center!
The Center for Community Service works with students, faculty, staff and with local community leaders to identify volunteer opportunities where the College can collaborate with local organizations and agencies on service projects.
Volunteer projects coordinated with the Center fall into two categories:
Submitting events is easy! Complete this online partner application/event submission form to submit your proposal to the Center. The Kleine Center is currently accepting applications for new volunteer opportunities to take place during Winter Term 2017. If you are not ready to submit an application form, but would like to explore your idea further, make an appointment with the Center by emailing firstname.lastname@example.com.
For a PDF version of our partner application form that you can save and work on later, please click on the links below.
The Center needs to receive requests for volunteers three weeks in advance for short-term event submissions. Long-term event submissions will continue to be accepted, with plans to implement them beginning January 2017.
The Center will look at the submission and, pending approval, advertise your event to all students on campus via email. From there, students can sign up to participate. Once a list of volunteers is generated, the Center contacts the community partner with the volunteers' information and confirms a time and place. The students are then reminded of the event with the location and transport information.
For short term or one-time events the students provide their own transportation unless the community partner makes other arrangements. For long term opportunities, the Center works with each partner to address transportation needs.
Yes, arrangements can be made for you to visit the campus. We can arrange a "meet and greet," where we would reserve a room and invite students to attend a presentation or informational meeting. Additionally, at the beginning of January the Center co-hosts the Winter Club & Volunteer Fair. The Fair is an opportunity for our community partners to come to campus and interact directly with students.
Knox College works with a three term academic calendar. We have black-out times at the beginning and the end of each term to allow for students to settle in after break or to focus on academics during final exams. See the Knox College academic calendar to see when our terms begin and end.

Happy New Year!
Posted By admin on January 5, 2016
As we begin a new year together as a church family, I would like to encourage you to enter with great expectations! I am already seeing that God has prepared us for something great this year.
New Life is a primary focus for the beginning of this year as we celebrate this Sunday several new lives in our church family. This Sunday we will celebrate in a baby dedication service, praying for these precious ones God has entrusted to our care and for the family they have been assigned to. We will also be focusing on new life in Christ through baptism this month and will be preparing for the culmination of our Kingdom Assignment as we share what new life God offers to our community.
Growing Ministries is another area God is taking us through this year. We will be holding a special called business meeting next Wednesday evening at 6:30 to discuss a proposal from the personnel team to shift our search for a youth minister to a full time position. We are also working to increase our ministries through partnering with some smaller churches in our area to better help them fulfill the Great Commission.
A third area I see God at work is through our stronger stewardship. Last fall we ask you to fill out a survey about your abilities and willingness to serve. Our Ministry Leadership Team is working during the next few months to give you the opportunity to step into some roles within our family. You will be hearing from them soon. This also shows me that on the horizon God will be doing an even greater work than what He has been doing, as He prepares us for the Harvest that is coming.
Thank you so much for allowing me the privilege to serve as your Pastor. It is an honor and fulfills who God has called me and made me to be. Continue to pray for me, for our church family, and for the days ahead. I hope you are ready for a great ride this year!

My wife has WP-driven site [here] and I am trying to figure out how to get her initial post (which is an introduction of herself) to always float to the top ---or simply remain there.
Maybe a better way to state things is that our priorty is to
- have an opening introductory statement about her business/service -- and allow comments (or a link to where comments can be posted/read, i.e. Endorsements <-- non-link in this case)
- always have the above post-and-comments appear in the topmost position
- allow her to blog below that in the traditional fashion
If you look at the site now, I have modified the
wp-content/themes/soothe/index.php file with the insertion of the original text of her first post---as a stop-gap in reaching our goal. Downside is that I cannot figure out a way to allow for comment posting on this "frozen" entry.
Meanwhile, I have "draft"-ed the original entry (which still holds the comments) so that it does not appear twice (first as an insert to the
index.php document, and second as the original/oldest post).
Any clue as to how I might accomplish this goal all within WP?

Sluggish 'Shrek' franchise lurches toward fairy-tale ending
Published: Tuesday, May 18, 2010 at 4:27 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 18, 2010 at 4:27 p.m.
If you found "Shrek the Third," the third film in the "Shrek" franchise, tired — and it was — it will probably come as no surprise that "Shrek Forever After" is downright exhausted.
Film facts
The formerly fearsome ogre is a fully domesticated family man in the latest installment, but he longs for one day the way it used to be. Be careful what you wish for. Mike Myers, Eddie Murphy, Cameron Diaz and the rest are back, but the franchise is now tired, with little of the wit that won us over in the first place. Directed by Mike Mitchell. DreamWorks Animation, 93 minutes.
Rating: Two stars or fair.
The spark of the original film, released nine (!) years ago, a gleeful skewering of Disneyfied fairy tale characters spiced with contemporary pop-culture references, was so refreshing and inspired it seemed like it could go on forever.
Isn't that always the way in fairy tales? Alas, as with King Midas' touch, there's always a catch. "Shrek the Third" made more than $322 million. Why kill the goose that laid the golden egg?
Because it's time.
"Shrek Forever After" is billed as the final installment, and it should be, while we still have warm feelings for Shrek and Donkey and the rest.
Shrek (voice of Mike Myers) is by this time a fully domesticated ogre, living in the Land of Far, Far Away with his wife, Princess Fiona (Cameron Diaz) and their triplets. He seems to lead a happy life, but the grind of waking up with the kids and sliding into the routine of feeding, burping and changing, combined with domestic chores and the lack of a life of his own, is starting to weigh on him. (Points for realism on that front.) Hey, the villagers say, didn't you used to be a proper ogre? Now his fearsome roar is a party trick, nothing more.
If only there were some way he could go back to being a mean ogre, if only for a day. ... Enter Rumpelstiltskin (Walt Dohrn), who we've met in a framing device. He's a scheming little cuss, happy to grant Shrek's wish, for reasons of his own. And remember, there's always a catch (see above).
What follows is a sort of like a twisted take on "It's a Wonderful Life," but not really. What if the Shrek we know and love had never been born?
Would the Land of Far, Far Away be a different place?
Well, duh.
While he gets his ogre groove back, he's not the same old Shrek. No one knows who he is; he's just another in a line of hated, feared creatures.
Thus, his best friend Donkey (Eddie Murphy) doesn't know him. Certainly Fiona doesn't. Instead of rotting away in the castle tower, she's now a freedom fighter, leading a resistance movement against ... eh, better not to say too much about how and why things have changed. Just know that they have, a lot. For Shrek to make things right, he must again share True Love's Kiss with her, but it's a tall order. (Isn't it always?)
It's an interesting idea, the alternate universe, one that requires a base knowledge of the characters. After all this time, we've got that. But to remain relevant it also requires a continuing level of wit and social commentary — which is, in reality, what the first "Shrek" was engaging in beneath the clever, funny jabs — and by this time that's pretty played out.
Of the new characters, Dohrn is good as Rumpelstiltskin ("Get me my angry wig!"), but Jon Hamm, Jane Lynch and Craig Robinson are largely wasted.
Donkey is still funny and cute, and Puss in Boots (Antonio Banderas) is now fat, which is good for a couple of laughs. But we've probably got more than all the "Shrek" we need already. Better to let this one make its fortune, as it surely will, and let the franchise reside henceforth in our memories. That way everyone lives happily ever after.
Rated PG for mild action, some rude humor and brief language.

My stay at Tom's Apartment was fantastic! The apartment is beauitful, modern and clean. It is in a safe, central location. The design is creative indeed, and I had a relaxing experience. Tom is also great to communicate with and was quick to respond to any questions I had. Overall, it was such a pleasure staying at Tom's apartment. I would highly recommend staying here if you find yourself visiting Berlin!
Really nice guy, always helping, he wasnt in the flat because he was abroad.
I really recommend his place, was clean, beautiful and near to everything.
Hope come soon again :)
Thank you so much for everything Tom
We had a great time in Berlin. Tom was a great host, very friendly and gave us good advice how to traveler around the city. The room was clean and comfortable in a great quite spot in the city. If you're looking for a quiet place to spent your time in Berlin tom's place is the perfect spot to settle!
Very nice and big apartment in the centre of Berlin.
Would book this location again a next time.
Nature's Dream is a wonderfull place to stay. Comfortabele, clean, modern and quiet. Close to many city-highlights and Nice restaurants. Tom introduced us his spacy appartement with a personal tour. From the start we felt welcome. Berlin requires more than one visit of 3 days. So we will come back to Tom's place.
Wir waren sehr froh, dass Tom auf unsere ungewöhnlichen Ankunfts/Abfahrtszeiten eingegangen ist. Nach einer superguten Einführung (Haushalt, nähere und weitere Umgebung in Berlin) haben wir uns sofort zurecht gefunden. Die Wohnung ist ideal gelegen um Berlin zu erkunden. Wir haben uns auch sehr wohl gefühlt und können die Unterkunft in Toms Heim jederzeit weiter empfehlen.
Herzlichen Dank Tom und liebe Grüße aus der Schweiz.
Es war einfach nur klasse. Alles super sauber, Tom unglaublich hilfsbereit und Future eine echte Bereicherung ;-)... Wir kommen gerne wieder...
Apartamento muy bien situado, en zona muy tranquila cerca de la Isla de los Museos y cerca de estación de metro. Edificio moderno. Habitación, baño y zona común muy amplios y bien equipados. Tom es un anfitrión discreto y amable. Ayudó mucho para facilitar la localización del apartamento y la entrega de las llaves. Muy recomendable.
Das Objekt entsprach exakt den Beschreibungen. Netter Kontakt, Wohnung gut aufgeteilt, moderne Ausstattung und sauber. Gerne wieder.
Abzüge für die große Baustelle wofür der Vermieter nichts kann.
