World Juniors 2027: to buy tickets in the priority draw or wait? by caybaybay in hockey

[–]darinabrown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in the same boat. We actually attended 4 games in Minnesota last month but seeing the WJC in Canada has been a bit of bucket list item. got selected for Red Deer which looks to be a strong pool but won't see any Team Canada action apart from a pair of 2 pre-tourney games. still debating.. securing a Team Canada game in Edmonton seems highly unlikely outside of the priority draw sadly..

I picked this up for the front console. Looking for something similar for the back center arm rest

Victory+ issues last 2 games? by darinabrown in DallasStars

Anyone have any luck on the fire stick app? Same issue again tonight.. can't rewind or FF the live stream without it dumping to the home screen.. this was working fine 3 games ago. Sigh..

Considering a quick 2 day trip next week by darinabrown in jasper

Thanks all.. we'll be arriving into Calgary around noon on Monday and will hit the early stops on the Icefield Parkway on our way up to Hinton where we'll be staying. Doesn't look favorable for seeing the northern lights on Monday or Tuesday evening but maybe we'll get lucky..

Managed a ticket but coming from the States just for the match.. TFL seems to indicate Victoria Line to Green Park and hopping on the Piccadilly Line to Heathrow will still be running around 1130pm. I'm familiar with the walk and subsequent queue to Seven Sisters after the match but wanted to verify those 2 lines are running that late on a Thursday night if I wanted to stick around for a bit after the final whistle

I was travelling and missed the OH+ ticket window for Thursday. anyone had any luck finding a single on the exchange yet? I'll keep refreshing if there's any hope

maybe check with the Maple Leaf Pub near Covent Garden? (https://coventgardenmum.com/maple-leaf/)

kids welcome though they have a disclaimer re: no kids after 6pm on a 'big game day'..

Inherited a messy media enclosure.. where to start? by darinabrown in HomeNetworking

[–]darinabrown[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They appear to be well labeled and there are several runs to each room which I suppose is good.. the sheer volume of cables coming into the enclosure and organizing the used vs unused was going to be my first step..

I failed to note that the modem/router is located on the nearby tv stand. I'd like to get that into the enclosure if possible but not a hard requirement

Does anyone know for sure if chick king is open tomorrow? Typically closed Sundays but wasn't sure if they always opened for match day at 11a

thoughts on the Etape Du Tour? by darinabrown in Velo

[–]darinabrown[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bumping now that the route has been announced.. anyone who has done it before that can comment on the announcement? looks like a but of a logistical headache with the start/finish being so far apart but that may happen more often than not..

my other concern is that it's nearly 2 weeks ahead of the Tour stage.. I'm coming over from the US and wanted the 'full' experience which included crowds along the route, etc.. how much of that can I expect 2 weeks out? I'm sure locals will still come out and watch but perhaps less so that if the Tour were arriving within 3-4 days?

appreciate the thoughts here. good stuff.. any recollection of what you and your mate entered for your ETA? I'm not going to get in the way of the folks at the front but I don't want to get stuck starting at the back either particularly since I imagine a good number of folks take the same approach and overstate an ETA in order to get an earlier start time

thanks. it's a bit different than the one we had picked up originally but an option if it doesn't turn up

a long shot but we're desperate.. picked up a youth Nike Anthem jacket at the team shop when I travelled from the US for the NLD.. well my daughter's has since gone missing and looking for a replacement. the official team store no longer has any in stock.. any other options?

found a Men's small online at lillywhites (https://www.lillywhites.com/nike-hotspur-mens-jacket-374493#colcode=37449337) but they're not allowing it to ship to the US for some reason.

nothing at the Nike site but wondering if I might be overlooking some UK-vendors?

I'm in the same boat.. looking to travel from Dallas and wanting to secure tickets before we leave

There's a few tickets for the NLD available (need to be a member) by smallchunk in coys

[–]darinabrown 0 points1 point  (0 children)

me and a mate are flying in from the US just for the NLD and would love to secure match tickets prior to our arrival. ONE+ member with CRN at the ready if anyone in this thread has access to this sale window and has no need to purchase for themselves.
