    Hi all

    turns out that CovPuss1 has a food allergy, but luckily tests confirm she's free of parasites.

    Only 80-odd quid to give her two shots and find that out (and more to come in two weeks) but the missus is feeling happier about it. Perhaps in a few weeks she'll (the cat!) put some weight back on and stop acting so miserable.

    Hiding on a different site today so that people can't find me and dump stupid bits of work on my desk.

      Off to lunch on my ownsome.

          Having lunch, rather than just carrying on because I'm engrossed and ending up taking it home with me

              Goodness me.

              In the usual afterthought, I glued some leds on the white line detector circuit so I could see wtf was going on.

              Turned out that it couldn't tell the difference between black & white, which is a bit of a disadvantage in a white line follower, all in all.

              In the 2007 design I used 100k resistors as loads for a phototransistor.

              Turned out the current (different) phototransistor is a tad more sensitive.

              50 times more sensitive, so the 100k resistors became 2.2k resistors.

              Ho hum.

              I wonder if the esteemed customers have found this out yet*.





              *They'd never see the old version coz it's about 3 times the price of the new one.

                I had a salad on my own. It was a miserable salad.
                If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

                  No, I didn't think so.
                  And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014

                    The very word "salad" is miserable.
