confused.. any English version ?

For 'mask' read 'aerial' No, I don't know why I typed mask either.

Currently I'm using a spare phone as a hotspot. I should buy an external aerial, router and and boosters if needed.

I'd moved my PC when cleaning and dusting, and pushed it a bit far back so the USB wifi thingy was hidden from the hotspot phone.

Curry is on its way. Playing Ride on my own bike, pickled, on my son's PS5 Not bad for a Monday.

That's what I'm seeing too.

If you change your country to Spain you get the £3.7k shipping quote - even with a mainland post code.

Mind you, it is DK and they can be a bit odd.

Anyone know a post code for Outer Mongolia?

Try:

Unit 1-3A, Level 19, Ulaanbaatar, Töv 14241, Mongolia

Can you get the angle grinder in there?

I landed my first ever 540 today.


I did not land the next 3 attempts

The auto-electrician I was recommended (after having no luck with previous ones) not only managed to fix the loss of power to the OBD port on my VW T4 but also fixed the interior lights that stopped working a while back.

Small wins.

Leccy to me is voodoo. We bought a big place, with some 'interesting' wiring, but all solved without too much drama. (or pesetas)

Yeah - mechanical stuff I can get my head around. Electrical stuff is witchcraft. I can figure house wiring (just about) but vehicle wiring - no chance...

Mrs Jawa got her new motor today. Skoda Scala 1.5 TSi DSG. Fucking quick for a 1.5 as its 150 bhp and the 7-Speed DSG is the danglies.

That means I can have my Fabia TSi back, so a stainless cat-back system, dump valve, and new shockers all round, it'll be back to it's old self.
