I'll have 1 more coffee before I wander down the hill to get some more petrol so that I can finish mowing my yard before LLB arrives.

Cheers.

Winning now that I've finally finished the yard. :-)

Now to get a few things from the supermarket before heading up to the post office to pay a bill and by that time the pub will be open for an extended LLB. :-D

Cheers.

Ok ok ok ok ok ...

We're still a few months away from our pubs being safely viable... Here's hoping our politicians and dumb public don't blow out on the COVID numbers...

Still... Time for a brew! ;-)


Aside: Now newly connected to the internet on a more permanent link. Very flaky setup but that can be fixed... Amazing voodoo required! Amazing such voodoo is still required!!

AT+CGDCONT?

It was an enjoyable and good extended LLB that was had here today.

Now it's time for something a bit more solid.

Cheers.

Unqualified ship pilot unfamiliar with the principles of Bernouli?

Get too near the edge of the canal and there can be some rather large twisting forces exerted.

And here is his good follow-up:

Ever Given Lessons Learned


Looks like for that size of ship constrained by the prevailing conditions, those conditions were beyond what the bridge crew could handle...

And the blame gets dumped onto a lack of dredging?...

I like Juan. He lives just up the hill from one of my projects. I have run into him on several occasions.

Yes, I like his approach and style. Very good and clear and accurate.

Makes all the "Newscasters" and "Presenters" look like dumb sensationalist story-telling unknowing amateurs!

Winning after a day of putting tools away and recycling pieces of a big old bedhead into a more compacted job (and so far so good).

I'll carry what I've done so far down into my summertime bedroom (as it's getting far to too of a night to use until spring returns) and see how I'm going on fit so far while seeing how I'll eventually fix it to the base.

It's now Beer O'clock time here for me. ;-)

Cheers.
