@Zico loool me and dad have been watching Paul chaudry. I think what makes him more funny for me is that he loves swearing in punjabi 😂. I haven't really learnt these swear words from the family except the main one he says which I found out in college after asking a friend what it means as my dad's would say it to me when he's joking around 🤣.

Did you see his latest video yesterday night about mental health 😂

Paul likes a good swear word or two. His impressions are also brilliant. I didn't really see much of his shows/clips until a few years ago. Paul's a younger, angrier version of Romesh  . I definitely liked Paul's appearance on Taskmaster which made me cry with laughter on several occasions.

Breakfast time at work when social distancing 😅

Its actually not bad atall since I've installed the xtrons ice/vdo/fv006 TV tuner 

@Lenny , you need one of these-

Unfortunately im longer than the width of the back seat 😅

Have to fold down the rear seat; have slept in it a few nights,

 

I do like clear blue skies on a Saturday!  Going to get the lawn at the back cut and then go for a nice walk I think to burn some calories and de-stress.

Sounds like a good plan. Wet here this morning 

Forecast for next week is good, but I'm not looking forward to a 5 day week.

Nice! Weather turned down here. Been raining last night and still raining now. But looks like it's brightening up soon hopefully. Got dog to walk and she don't like the rain.

How many gardens do you want??? 😂😂😂😂

One's more than enough for a non-gardener like me!

I think our generosity can get this far sometimes 🤣

 

I'm very lucky and happy to be playing a vital part in the process of manufacturing pharmaceuticals for use in two vaccines currently in clinical trials aswell as manufacturing a reagent for use in administration the final vaccine and we have been told from head management that we can share that information to family and friends.

I have been lucky to receive additional working hours as result of the pandemic, however I have chosen not to profit from those additional working hours; instead I have spent the additional amount received from my employer; on groceries for local families and friends whom I personally know are affected by the current lock down and are generally hard working people but currently struggling as result of the sudden lockdown due to the pandemic situation.

To date I have personally donated £1167.54/€1343.02 to local families and friends in the form of online grocery shopping being delivered  to there homes to temperarily allow them to find there feet in the current climate by clearing other utility bill's with the weekly benefit recieved from the government rather than having to divide it between the grocery and utilities 

I've also created a guest wifi account on my virgin media router called Password:COVID-19 and relocated my router to the attic in a bid to spread the range as far out as possible to the neigbours.

To share my wifi connection with the neighbours whom are all currently unemployed in lockdown, I have done this to help there children continue to access there new form of online education during these very difficult times.

This week I have personally hands on manufactured three batches of a pharmaceutical for use in a vaccine which is currently in clinical trials;

To say the least I'm sincerely proud to be playing such a part for all of man kind and will continue to play my part in stock piling production in hope that our vaccine and the vaccines which we also provide parts for are indeed a true success aswell as continuing self isolation and making best efforts to protect my own direct family and others from the infection during these very difficult times. 

Really praise you for that @Lenny 👍. I hope God gifts you with something not like me who helps people out and makes then happy only to be left emotionally upset over a girl 😓

@zain611 or anyone else knowledgeable on these things, looking at getting some AutoBeam LED light upgrades for brake lights, reverse and front and rear indicators. Do you think I'll ned the canbus resistor thing as well, or will I get away with it as my car already has some LED lights on it (factory fit DRL's)? Also want their sequential mirror indicators but they're out of stock, unless anyone knows an ebay alternative?

So the performance indicators are Cambus friendly however the performance brake lights are not. I know this from fitting these on my dad's car. You could see with the brake lights if it throws up any Cambus message then probably you need resistors. Probably better to wait when the mirror indicators come back in stock or search on eBay as autobeam sell on their and it might be cheaper than buying on their website.

I get what you mean mate, and I do feel for you; but you will meet someone else in the future and the current situation will slowly calm and fade away for you,

I now have a wife that hates me for what I did with my overtime and feels she should have been given all of it 😂 hasn't been in the same room as me in over a week; but I know she's well looked after for the past nineteen years and will continue to be. 

Keep putting yourself out there mate; you will find someone whom appreciates you; if I was you I'd finish my career if possible with the current climate everything is increasingly difficult; but complete that then seek companionship as partners mess with your head and can impact on your education, if you had a partner and even a baby on the way during the current crisis then your career would be short ended and future impacted trying to balance books and child care, 

It will all come together for you in the future and you will look back on these days wondering why you worried about it; enjoy life as much as you can without impacting on your health too much and all in moderation.

Currently a huge shortage of of latex gloves,  P3 type masks, toilet rolls and sequential indicator units 😂

Nice one, I’ll have a look at eBay l. Not in any rush to get them either, just wanting something to do at the moment.

Sequential indicators are very important commodities at times such as this!

I'm sure your wife still loves you. My mum is fed up of dad staying at home due to him having to not go work as he is in the vulnerable group having diabetes.

Yeah I think your right there. Even my mum said that girl probably didn't focus on her degree if she did actually get married and has a child. She wanted to become a primary school teacher so don't know if that comprises anything for her. For some reason I kind of get jealous and think if she has actually gotten married and moved on at this age why can't I do the same near the same age. As you said though my career might get compromised if I got married now. I need to get back onto my goals which are finishing my masters, get into that training course (which is the main thing) then save for a flat and rent it to invest towards a house then save up proper and get a nice car for myself. As you said its difficult out there getting a job. I was close from getting an interview but looks like God cancelled the interview process which makes me happy as I don't have to think about it. Never know I might get called for an interview if this CoronaVirus caused disruption to people in the interview list. 

I think time is the best medicine and self respect. It's just that with lockdown and staying at home and in my room most of the time I start to get these thoughts about her which then upsets me. Thankfully I'm not depressed just emotionally scarred. I honestly just want to get rid of this feeling I have and feel happy with myself. Hopefully I meet someone in the family / family friends or likes me and show it as I don't think I'll chase after another girl.

I've got the performance lights in my ST and have had no issues or warnings with them. The indicators work as usual (no fast flashing etc.) as do the brake, reverse and rear fog light. Recently fitted the performance dipped and full beams and again no issues so far.

Car Rambles has a video where he's fitted the sequential indicators and also compares them to a competitors (guess CEUK) and the AutoBeam are night and day above the other set:

That’s so helpful, cheers! Will be waiting for the sequentials to come back in then place an order. Stay safe all, hope it’s not too difficult for you 😄.

The daily struggle! 🤭
