So... What oiled your gears today? ARCHIVE

[winz]

Not specifically today, but we had our first scan on Thursday, all well and good at the moment and there is only one in there!

Had sign off for a couple of websites yesterday, so it's time to wind down for Christmas.

And today is the Bristol Gang Xmas dinner/party. 20 of us stuffing ourselves and boozing, it's going to be a treat.

My Logitech G105 keyboard. Took it apart to clean it, held the keyboard bit under the shower and give it a good rinse with Lynx and a scrubbing brush and after drying it off, it feels brand new, all the keys are springy again.

Win win. A shiny new feeling keyboard for 10 minutes work.

All expenses paid Christmas party in the Lakes. Free booze, food, board, and mileage for travel too.

I got up at 5:30am in order to make it to London by 8am as I often do these days. As I was having my breakfast I switched on my phone and looked at my calendar.

No meetings...

There's absolutely no point in me going in to sit there all day and work in the office when I could just as well do the same at home, and I heard there was an accident or something on the M3... so I'm now working from home. Gears well and truly oiled!

I once pulled an old BBC computer out of a pile of fly tipped rubbish, rain water poured out of it.

I took it apart left it on a towel in the kitchen for a week. Plugged it into an old monitor, and it worked straight away.

had to do a few things in town, couldn't face cycling as it's my day off

would have taken the vanvan, but haven't ridden the dirt bike for about a month.

weather is quite good, and I was zipping about town in a good mood

my old dog, farm dog, we would walk him for many hours a day, and then play fetch at home, never slowed down until he was about 10.

Literally run 6 miles with him, and he wasn't even warmed up.

Current dog walk to park run, jog for 3 miles, walk home, zonked for the rest of the weekend.

I stopped during typing this to take a christmas decoration of the little bugger, which he just chewed up, a festive teddy bear no less.

Way bigger, but same shape. She's a big girl. Oddly she's met both doberman and weimeraner pure breed females
and she's bigger than either. More the stature you would expect from a male doberman/weimeraner. She's been on a diet
so may not be quite 6 stone now but I'd say still a good 37kilos in new money. I met her dad and mum, her dad was HUGE
for a doberman so I guess she just has 'big' genes. Next dog will be larger than her though... Round the 50 kg mark.

I have recently survived 2 bouts of illness, the first was a rather nasty little cold shortly followed by another virus which almost felt like the flu. Didn't quite get to the delirious stage but was challenging nonetheless.




Oh and today my best friend didn't die or suffer any injuries when his home burned.

He managed to save his guitar...that and the clothes he stands in.

Pics cos BCF innit.

People are ok/safe and that’s good
Stuff, even guitars can be replaced

A house is just big stuff

Glad he's ok.

I have fire extinguishers all around my house, 8 of varying sizes.

I put them in after going on a firefighting command and control course in Glasgow.

They (the fire service) had a training house that they filled with old furniture, put a dummy in the bedroom and lit it. Told us to put the fire out and save the dummy.

12 headless chickens. House burned, dummy died, 3 of us suffering from smoke inhalation.

It frightened the crap out of me.

Mum and dad lost everything they owned in a fire after living there 35 years, with one of their cats dying in the smoke.
It was their fridge that malfunctioned, went up like a fire ball. It has shaken them like nothing ever has. They live in
a different house now but I don't think they will ever get over it. Stuff can be replaced, houses can be fixed up. I too have
a few extinguishers dotted about and a fire blanket in the kitchen. The main thing is your mate got out.
