I would just like to say

We were given the number of a dog groomer who comes to your place and does it on the spot provided you have washed the dog first, only €30 a mutt.
Rang her this a.m. she cannot do anything until October!
She gave us the name of a "poodle parlour" in town, they cannot do anything till the end of August.

FLIP!
I'll have to do it meself. Grrr!
We do usually do it ourselves over here but it is such a pain. At that price we couldn't turn it down. Trouble is neither could loads of others, apparently!

I would say do all you want to do while your working, cos once you retire (have all the time in the world) you suddenly have no time for your own projects

I see that, thanks to Microsoft and CrowdStrike not having tested their update properly, the world has come to a standstill.
How in God's name can the world be so reliant on just one system? Madness!

According to W, at least in the old days, Microsoft were renowned for testing their systems by waiting until customers complained.
Is this now the norm? Seeing as how Boeing seem to be doing similar?
This is why a mate of ours who worked for Marconi on aircraft systems stopped working for them, being continuously asked to sign off on systems that had not been properly tested.
Feel so sorry for peeps being affected by this.
So we deffo ain't going out today!
