What would you do differently in your next house build? (For us, there won’t be a next time, but I think beginners can benefit from our experience.) Please stay on topic and avoid lengthy discussions (feel free to start a new thread for that)!

I’ll start:
* Electrician: A network connection in every room isn’t necessary; nowadays everyone uses Wi-Fi, which is perfectly sufficient.
* Us: OK, then we’ll install one network connection per floor where the TV is going, you have to save somewhere.
* Result: At the network outlet, we get 50 Mbit/s, Wi-Fi with a repeater around 20, sometimes only about 5, Powerline adapters around 25. It’s enough for me, but the kids are disappointed. I followed all the usual advice.

For kaho, not for the showers, because it’s too late for showering now: That’s how it is. We are different. Those who grow up like us with mashed rutabaga, kale with sugar on top, pears, beans and bacon, and boiled cod with mustard sauce, develop different tastes.

That’s quite something. My mom was originally from Mecklenburg as well, but we never had anything like that. And no beach chairs in the garden either.

So beets, kale, and sugar wouldn't have been a problem now... *ugh*

Oh yes... the Mecklenburger. Two people, a case of beer, a bottle of spirits, a bus stop shelter, just don’t talk too much—that’s a successful evening. That’s how your genes are. Then it’s no wonder we’re not surprised so much anymore.
