      Another week done!

      I carried on for an extra thirty minutes or so as there was something that wasn't working, and the others had to go. Once I had the relevant bits set up locally and could make use of PyCharm's Docker integration, I sorted it out very quickly. I'm always surprised at how many developers seem to think debugging involves looking at things and trying to figure out why they don't work; I've always taken the approach of using every debugging tool at my disposal and getting inside the machine to see what's really going on as opposed to what I think should be going on, and it saves loads of time

        Expensive day today. The wife's car went in for a new under tray (£232 fitted), and there's another £1,300 of repairs to be done to it. (I rejected the Audi Stealer's price for new front tyres and new front brakes "your brakes are 60% worn" and "your tyres are down to 3.8mm")

        Then to top it off, one of the local farmers was out trimming the hedge on a field, so I got him to do our front hedge. 20 minutes to top and front 30 metres of hedge, for £40. If I do it with my petrol cutter it takes 2 days and produces a lot of waste. He flails it with the tractor arm and all that is left is shreddings.
        …Maybe we ain’t that young anymore
