Yep, I had an MOT failure due to bulbs being "incorrect colour"  they were still orange but obviously not orange enough 🙄

They can be quite particular

    I do like getting the all clear from the doctor further to a cancer scare.  Still got lots of problems in my life but at least now I've (hopefully) got a lot of time to deal with them.

  • I do like finally finishing a model kit I first started 5 and a half years ago.  It's a very special model that i was supposed to finish by the time the aircraft took her final flights across the UK

I do like, with the help of Google, extending the wi-fi up to our son's rooms.

 

They're the only ones upstairs in the new part of the house, the other side of the original outside wall, and have always complained about poor internet. So today I discovered a massive ethernet cable already installed upstairs directly from the room with the router in it(I originally thought it was just a phone extension) and with the help of a website and an old router I had lying about, I have managed to double their internet speed. Happy boys.

 

Next step, internet to the garage.

Cleaned out the fish tank and Turned it in to a mini glass house for the back garden 😀

👌 excellent job mate, 

I understand your joy as I've recently routed network cables to every room of the house except the kitchen where it's a digital free zone for interaction, no tv, no tablet,

And with the aid of the same information, another old router and a pair of plug-in power line adapters I now have a decent WiFi signal, and the option of plugged in ethernet, in the garage. 

Fairly chuffed with myself, even better, apart from the time it took it cost me nothing as it was just stuff lying about the garage and drawers etc 

We do have an unwritten rule regarding devices at the table. No internet or phonecalls whilst having a meal but afterwards if something crops up in conversation we'll consult Google etc

Be grand, he's not a wild fella, wife spends 24/7 with him he can hold a full conversation, if he breaks it I don't really care 😅 

 

I do like seeing that Dyson have seen fit to commemorate Lemmy with a special edition vacuum cleaner! 😀 😎 🤟

How did you get them to commemorate your 'Long reach wand' Lenny? Have you been sending out dic pics again?😂

Wait for Tori/Vicki's reply now "Long reach wand???? More like a little crevice tool!"🤣

I do like finally getting the Focus steering pump leak fixed! 😀

 

Not so sure about the size of the packaging it came home in though! Could have sent it in a Jiffy bag 🙄
