Well, I bought this model from Costco in 2003. Every four years, or so, I call Charbroil, give them the model #, serial # and date of purchase. They then send me new burners, carrier tubes and grills for about $10.00 shipping and handling. A 99 year warranty is the greatest thing since sliced bread! I quit asking for electronic lighters because they grease up, burn off and generally don't work. No big deal to poke a lighter into the grill, fire it up and go. I love this cheap, old grill. I have one in Arizona that costs four times and doesn't perform any better!

So far 1/4 clients and neighbors that visit have been choosing the Bruce Park Avenue Makore as their favorite out of my samples in my home office room. One neighbor is buying it for her floors in her townhouse. She saw the samples in the window and knocked on my door. The other 1/4 like the Amendoim and the other 1/4 votes for the Brazilian Cherry. The last 1/4 feel I should go even lighter or even darker. I guess everyone has their own taste but it is amazing how when they pick out the Makore they tell me they like this wood since it has nice coloring, a nice grain and they love the glossy finish. When I tell them that sample is a laminate, they are so surprised and that one client asked if she can borrow the sample (I have a few small samples of each species or laminate to put them together to see how they look) to show her husband. She thanks me for helping her with her decision. I am still not sure but I like how the gloss picks up the color on my desk and it is difficult to scratch. Is the floor slippery to walk on?

In my opinion to make the best of the opportunity presented, Jimmy needs to visit at least a few local gardens and nurseries that carry or display the "right" sort of plants, so that would be Inverewe or Cally Gardens, and possibly others I don't know off the top of my head. (Torosay sadly stopped being a public garden; I've been to Culzean but it didn't strike me as having a particularly awe inspiring variety, by UK standards anyhow) And admit to himself you can't make an omelet without breaking a few eggs. I haven't studied the pictures but if some of what's already there are junk trees (whatever that is in western Scotland) time to turn them into firewood. Believe me, once you start, it gets easier. I've gotten rid of about 10 junk silver and red maples on my property over the years, and it's only a hectare.

Traditional Chinese or Japanese is written in vertical columns. It is read starting at the top of the rightmost column and down that column. The columns are read from right to left. The modern Japanese alphabet contains thousands of characters with a mix of symbols for words or objects and sounds. A little less than 50 characters are used for phonetic script. Early in the formative age of Japanese writing, it heavily borrowed Chinese characters, and both Chinese and Japanese were written vertically, therefore, a novice may not be able to discern the difference between the two, Due to influences of other cultures, modern Japanese is written horizontally, but the vertical format may yet be found depending on circumstances.
