Bathroom and plan B

Tuesday 22.09.2009 18.32 Been chasing a big fluffy bathroom mat with matching towels for a long time. I don’t know why I did, since I knew that Manor has what I wanted all along. So from today I am the proud owner of a rich yellow, thick mat with equally yellow towels. It just so turned out that the mat and one towel cost 99.80 CHF, and at purchases of 100 CHF you get a voucher worth 20 CHF. But of course the voucher isn’t valid until tomorrow so couldn’t use it, but fell for it anyway and bought an extra small towel for 6 CHF to get me over the limit. After all I have two bathrooms now. And normally I would’ve posted a pic here, but guess what? 1. I haven’t located the cables for the camera and mobile yet and 2. the friggin network is still not working. Plan B will now be executed. I am caving in and getting a network from Orange the next few days. From what I, the technical idiot, understand, you can get a usb-stick with a wireless network for 49 CHF a month. This way I at least get away from Swisscom, and can ditch my landline and only use Skype for phone calls.

Nice to see a Zurich Blog. I just came to Zurich few months back and found this city really interesting. Also nice to read your blog in English when everything is in German around. :)

'plan b'
yay, thats exactly what we do, and I reckon we're spending much less money. and the great thing about the usb stick is that you can use it anywhere so if you're travelling, or feel liek a chaneg of scenery you dont have to pay again to be online
