I can get a much stronger signal if I place my mifi by the window. I've only had it seven years.

One I realised after a month...

Putting your router on the window sill in full view of any pedestrians walking along the pavement directly outside is not a great idea when the router's wifi password is clearly displayed on the back of it!

My sister lives opposite a church, one that has a big wall going around it, each lunchtime she would see the migrant workers (heart of Lincolnshire) sitting on the wall all with their phones & a couple with laptops, she was passing one day & asked one of them why they all sat there each day, the reply was because of the free WiFi. Guess whose wasn't password protected

Well for the OP, they can now realise there’s already a thread on this subject started in March.

Corinthians 9:6-8
Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously. Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

The thread topic sounded familiar but a search didn't return anything. I'd spelled realized with a 'z' and not an 's'.

Needed one Strepsil earlier but definite improvement over yesterday’s Corona symptoms. Will test again tomorrow afternoon to see if I’m still registering positive.

I was yesterday old when I finally learned that the temple thing I've always thought of as the Acropolis (in Athens), is actually the Parthenon. The Acropolis being the wider plateau and former settlement.

My 11 year old daughter knew this already.

well Rome wasn't built....

 

[CanucksTraveller]

I think part of the "not quite finished" problem lies in the fact that the British Museum still hold on to large parts of the building, purportedly "gifted" by the Ottomans who had no claim to it either.
