Split open by £140 auto-darkening welding mask sensor and found the fault that caused it to not auto-darken. Me very happy!

That thing where you have one of those super cosmic moments when you realise how very tiny your life is, in the grand scheme of things

And yet how absolutely perfect and contented your tiny life is. Even with all its uncertainties and fears, Life is pretty damn good.

I feel very privileged to have this sweet easy comfortable modern Westernised life

I have to agree. Things could be considerably worse for me too.

Free £500.

£250 for switching bank accounts, £250 to the friend that recommends me, which is a relative, who will give me their £250.

Watched the race, qualifying yesterday and the Joshua fight all on Kodi Very Happy I think cos certain plugins got taken down then came back, all the people with their preloaded sticks/boxes haven't updated them, so it's back to the good old days when you could actually steal sports Cool Exodus seems to be slowly dying though Crying or Very sad

I don't undestand all that techno gubbins. Crying or Very sad I think I'd like one of them Kodi things, but would probably mess it up.

I never got the hang of bit clients either. I do try with stuff, and get there in the end, used to use Limewire, but gave up filesharing in about 2006. Bit clients I never got the hang of.

I'm the only ride leader in my branch of the TRF to rely solely on paper maps Laughing

I suppose in the USA premiership football is easier to watch for free, like NFL is here. For a time it was a bit in the wilderness and even the superbowl got kicked all over the place, especially in the noughties.

I share a flixster/ultraviolet account with a family member, but we only have like a dozen films in that.

My local Triumph dealer made a cockup last time they had my bike which I wasnt happy about.

Dropped the bike in this morning, in the rain, pissed off at having to get it filthy just to take it to them to rectify their error.

They apologised and gave me a Thruxton R for the day. Lovely ride and hasnt done anything to put me off wanting one.

UK Turk. It used to be really busy/unwatchable but since they got closed down and came back it's a lot better. Phoenix used to be good as well (better for live events actually) but I think they're permanently gone.

I've not tried the (apparent) Exodus replacement, Exodus has been so good for so long I'm finding it hard to let go...

I look so scruffy in my dog walking clothes, with my winter beard, that when I walked into town to do the banking all the chuggers and youths in cheap suits selling phones and utilities left me alone.

16 years today that Mrs Grr and I got together. Best thing I ever did. Steak dinner for 2 tonight Here.
Been before, looking forward to a revisit. Have a dogsitter to keep a lid on Gracie during the barrage of
trick or treaters between 6 and 8. Who knows what else is to follow when we get home... Embarassed
I'd better run my wang under the tap, just in case. #romanceisntdead

Brief 3-day sabbatical to Italy organised.
Requires small (in fact, miniscule) input of "work" whilst there, but have mostly planned for eating, sleeping and relaxing.

So, Yay for that.

Dance!

Went to work just before 4am today (annoyiing neighbours+3am fireworks+angry hellkat) -

Picked up an assortment of early morning fares that netted me so much I am seriously considering doing it on a more regular basis, or at least, when the big guy is away.

Plus, no traffic WHATSOEVER.

My new bird is properly tamed now. Had him three weeks and he's ours!

Now I'm toilet training him. He only drops his guts every 10 minutes or so, unlike my lovebird who's like a fkn gattling gun.
