Oddly it went really dark then got slightly lighter but no rain."You’re just a bad memory who doesn’t know when to go away" JR -
Two bloomin' spot lights in my kitchen have just gone. Good because I can swap the halogens for LEDs (after much will they/won't they work debate) but bad because I absolutely detest the getting up ladder, balancing on a work top / clinging to a cupboard activity. It's all very unsafe and I don't like it.Comment

The contract is up in April but I've already told the client I'm having a few weeks off.Originally posted by vetran View Postsounds like a winner if your contract is up. Take a few months if the war chest allows.
We've just had the awkward call. Mr Third Party Expert is going to spend three weekends looking over the cabling contractors' shoulders and making sure they're doing it right. He won't configure anything or do any actual testing, he's just coming along to gee people up.Comment

Was it around the time that that Zeity cove disappeared?Originally posted by NickFitz View PostI think Virgin Media Business offer them, but I'm just with plain old Virgin Media.
Last time it changed, they gave me one that had previously been geolocated to some remote spot a few miles north of Neath, so that's where Google Maps insisted on starting for me for a few weeks
Just askin' like.
Lunch: poached (but not poached enough) tomato and scrambled egg on Morrisons mulitgrain toast, several bramble jelly sandwiches on same, red pipless corner yog, 0.91 pints of good Glengettie tea.Last edited by DoctorStrangelove; 30 September 2020, 12:06.When the fun stops, STOP.Comment
