    The repair to the Asus eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee psu has been completed.

    It's only taken 6 months.

    My Farnell psu will be grateful for the relief.

    Tea, to be consumed shortly, shall be lentil <pffffft> soup, being a mixture of that horridly sweet batch I made on Sunday along with some older stuff that's matured in the freezer.

    I hope it turns out edible or I'm fecked.

    Today's excitement was getting my temperature controller to run on a n 18 pin PIC16F88 rather than the 40 pin PIC16F887.

    The 2nd lot of excitement was setting off the alarm as I walked out of Morrisons.

    I blame the quiche.

        I keep setting off the alarm when leaving the M&S food hall. As far as I can tell, the self service till is able to scan the barcode at a greater distance than it can disable the security tag

            Acting on the advice of 1 out of 1 dentists, tea tonight couldn't be anything that required a lot of chewing. So scouse it was, and very nice too

              This evening's televisual excitement was provided by S1E2 of "Carter", the Canadian produced ripoff of "Castle".

              It was mildly amusing in an inoffensive sort of way.

              The Canadians have weird gun laws.

              Pistols of .25" and .32" calibre are completely banned.

              Pistols with barrels of less than 4 1/8" are completely banned.

              Other than that you can have more or less what you like as long as it's registered.

              This was followed by the thing about Marie Curie on BBC4, which was relatively interesting considering that I'm half pissed on Old Peculier.

                I thought the memory was soldered in?

                Not that I'm about to alter anything.

                  Tonight's viewing has been a few more episodes of Fargo S1. Only a few more to go, so I think I'll do all of them in one go next time

                  Goodnight all

                      And is this televisual epic providing Sir with satisfaction?

                      Yes.

                      I expect it to kick in tomorrow at 05:00 so I can listen to The End of the World News.

                      Things just haven't been the same since they discontinued Lilly Bolero.

                      One can remember listening to the 7p.m. news bulletin on a nice Murphy Wireless back in the day, said bulletin being introduced with said tune IIRC.


                      Feck me, what with the sun and the rising wind, the pollen count is now enormous.
