I’m glad to post this quick update about the shelf with Russian products in Ermes supermarket. I thought they removed the shelf completely, but they just moved it to a really good hiding place. Probably it wasn’t there last time I checked, but it doesn’t matter anymore. It’s back and I can have all tomatos that I want. The new location of the shelf is to the left of the butcher section (if faced away from the meat).

New card reader
Sometimes I feel really stupid. Especially when I realize that I couldn’t properly diagnose the problem. I thought that my microdrive was dying, when in fact it was my card reader. Today I realized the problem in full scope.
Went out and bought myself a new card reader. This time I went for an all in one option. Before I had a need only for CompactFlash compatible media, but now I also have a large Memory Stick Due too.
I got myself a Trust (?) card reader with 16-in-1. Jez! I didn’t even know that there were 16 different card types. My, oh my. Considering that the card reader only has 4 holes to put cards into, I guess all those card types aren’t so different afterall.
11 CYP in ComputerWorld, if you were wondering. Let the file transfers begin!
The order is here. Not in my hands yet though.
Today I received an update on my order. It has arrived to Cyprus and is waiting for me in one of the post offices, here in Limassol. Unfortunately I go the news too late to pick it up today. So, the whole day and night and a bit of the morning I’ll have to try NOT to think about a new lens and all the fun I can have with it. As well as all that fun that I can have with a bigger memory card for my phone.
No, I am not thinking about that. No. Not right now. And now. Oh, come on! Send me something to get my mind of this thing…
The butcher job
Yesterday I’ve got the chance to use my hatchet knife. It was the first time I bought one (a few month ago), and I never had anything to chop into pieces. Why did I buy a hatchet knife you might ask. Well, it’s a long story.
Note: this post is really a long story and it has some creepy details that involve the dead flash and a hatchet. If you are sensitive about this sort of things, maybe you should probably avoid reading this post altogether.

That was really fast!
Just a few dyas ago, I’ve mentioned that Ermes now has a Russian corner with a few products. I made so much noise about it that few people decided to go and check it out.
Guess what did they find. Try once again. Ok, for the last one. No? Well, nothing. Everything from those shelves has been removed. I went around all the shelves and haven’t found any traces.
I guess that was a pilot test… Which didn’t went through.
