    And

    Yay!

    The junk room is officially not my problem any more.

        I have the joys of veroboard man this morning.

        Unfortunately I no longer have the excuse of hiding away in the junk room.

        Mostly coz it's almost empty

        Don't tempt me.

        This morning's inspired bit of muppetry first class was to turn the 5V rail up to 22V because the meter was indicating current instead of voltage.

        Doh!

        Now he's cooked 4 resistors, maybe the LM324, and almost certainly 4 (reasonably expensive) opto sensors.

        My joy is complete & overwhelming.

          (Chicken) Mandi is good - and should be dirt cheap
          (Meat) Mandi ditto - but lots more expensive (Cheap by our standards but 3-4 x Chicken).

          Mazbi is also good - same sort of pricesprices

          Mudjfoon is my fave....... slightly curried flavour

          All sorts of Kebabs and stuff....

          I would say try the Lahmb Nukell Sup....... and the Meaty Labia (same link?)

          I'll dig out some other "names"....... I tend to just point - cos they don't always have English Menus here in Jeddah.....

          PS Dirt cheap = about £2-50 for Meal (1/2 Chuck plus ton of rice/rissoto stuff), Side salad, couple of Pepsi

            Amazingly enough, after I replaced (coz I fried them) two LM324 opamps, the thing still works.

            The resistors don't half stink though.

                  Thanks Drew - we're going to have one night in Al Karama (rip off city!) & I want to try some local stuff - maybe not Meaty Labia though - would be like lesbian night or something
