      Fruitless morning with DIY, wanted to change the light bulb in the front porch light, started to take off various bits of panneling to discover the previous owners had fecked the threads in the screws and had screwed some in so bleedin' tight I cannot remove them.

      So decided to put panels back on only to find that the threads were fecked and it was rust holding the screws in, in the first place.

      Off to the cloggy equivalent of B&Q now to try and find a new porch light

        Hope he's ok.

        I simply couldn't cope with a cat at the moment.

        Especially one who's continually digging the furniture and trying to kill me on the stairs.

          I think he's been living down in the car port.

            Bought a new light online instead.

            Will still have to head to cloggy B&Q as I need to check out some cheap curtains and rails to put in front of the garage door to stop a draft.

              Gosh.

              EasyPC seems to have got all flashy.

              Still crap though.

                  Stock answer is "MyCo's dress policy when on a Client site", little do they know WFH usually means dressing gown and fluffy slippers
                  That sounds like a recent policy!!! I don't remember it at the previous clientco....

                    In other news its very slowly starting to dawn on an agent that there is a reason why we know what the going rate for our skill set is locally.

                    The only other contractor within 100 miles of here with the skill set sits next to me every day....
