Not enough beer to fill the pool.

Bigger than a bath, smaller than an ocean

I kept going bigger and bigger with paddling pools until I ended up with a 4' deep heated one. Then I realised it's not worth it and now we have an inflatable pool just big enough for one person to stetch out, much easier and always in reach of the table with your beer.

Yeah that's about the size of this, 7' long apparently. It's like a person and a 1/2, deffo not 2 people

Surely that depends on what position you both adopt in said pool??

Really really really not in a working mood today. Silliness and power mad people have beaten me down so I’ve decided I’m doing very little today, currently parked up hidden away watching catch up crap on tv!!

Having a break from studying. Finally managed to reply to my mum's last email, I've not been good at comms in the last couple of weeks :(

Been at my mates cafe for about three hours studying (listening to the Fiches Orales through headphones and writing everything down so I actually learn it!! LOL).

Now having a break on here until the laptop goes to sleep - then I'll go home and recharge it and come back here later!! LOL

Decided to actually sort out the ren-0 earthing issue. Light out, check the circuits, all look good, have a looksee in the actual connector.......hmmmm!
Bit of WD then a wee scrunch of tinfoil and all good.
Haven't tested the cruise control yet, but the tail light no longer pulses in time with the indicator, which I guess means we have a winner!
Took the wheel off the Moho as well........somebody needs new discs as well!!!

Sat in the Blue Bell, about 50m away from the infamous Holiday Inn Express.

Seems I'm a bit late for the riot

Sitting in f-i-ls house waiting for a commode to be delivered. The advised delivery time slot is 13:30-15:30. Why do I never get an early delivery when waiting on home deliveries... :hmmm:
