Finding the right capacitor for old CRTs is such a pain. I remember helping a friend with his, and we somehow made the colors all washed out. Never did figure out why.

What part do you focus on now?

My panic-booking a flight to Lisbon 6 months out meant I got the last bunk at that popular place by the river. Of course, I also couldn't change it when my cousin decided to get married the same week... so I missed the whole thing. Had to watch the wedding over a shaky video call from a hostel common room. But hey, at least my bed was cheap and in a perfect spot. Early booking is a mixed bag... you win some, you lose some. Still, for getting those hard-to-find spots, it's probably worth the hassle.
