Leave the front door key under a plant pot for the party gang
Tis fine ive got a spare key.....
We had a glorious day today, spent most of the day helping the dive crew & welding inspectors, doing load tests
a whole load of time & wages for countless people for a 30 second lift. They have a deep sea dive frame that we
put 25ton on it, 2t weights & 4 x 250kg weights. We were getting to the stage of boredom so started messing about...
My mate said them 250kg ones on the back of the lorry I bet I can shift one by lifting it but couldnt get his hand in
the the space. So left it for 1/2 n oor. We slung them on the frame but when we were taking them off my mate said
if I can move this weight & you cant I'll be the strongest lad in the yard so I'll never hear the end of it. I slung it up
& wrapped it round my wrists & shifted it an inch...then he said right then & tried his hardest then his back popped
Then couldnt stand up now he's in hospital had an xray got mussel damage now off work Kids these days eh

Seeing as how I have now been told that my ancient old Motorola V171 will not be viable later on this year, I took its Sim card out and put it in my Alcatel that 3 have decided to switch off. Or to be more clear, to switch 3g off.
Well it now works with the Tesco SIM. On 3g.
So that proves that this mobile is unlocked and has a good chance of working in Frogland as they are being a lot slower about switching 3g off. Good news and it means I can prolly stick a Frog Sim in it.
Meanwhile I will be getting a new or second-hand phone that'll handle 5g and a PAYG Tesco Sim that will run with "Lite" as that is what will suit me best.
Spent too much time on this, including writing down all the phone numbers I had on both phones. Boring. but necessary.
Ordered a new hub for the front offside on the Disco as that is the only hub I haven't changed and it has been making a tiny noise for a while.
I will also be doing an oil and filters change on it.
Having been looking carefully at all the D2s I can see it would appear that my front bumper is actually one of the better ones despite the previous owner having caught a tree stump under part of it. So I am going to devote a little time to sourcing the other plastic bits that need fixing or replacement. Which is why I will also be ordering one of those plastic welding tools I mentioned before.
W is chafing at the bit to start doing more strenuous stuff, which means me having to be careful with her. So of course I have to do things she would normally do to stop her doing them! Which of course takes more time than if I did it all myself.
Still, making progress.

Laborious but writing down all contacts and re-entering them on a different phone guarantees data integrity unless you make a mistake... plus you've got a record of them if the phone breaks/SIM gets corrupted etc.Seeing as how I have now been told that my ancient old Motorola V171 will not be viable later on this year, I took its Sim card out and put it in my Alcatel that 3 have decided to switch off.

Thanks, such is life, flat out for ever it seems.
Had a huge amount of rain lately and now as a result of driving rain saturating a hillside we've had a fairly nasty landslip. Not very big but some of the rocks are going to take some moving.
Luckily the burglar didn't take a lot, in and out in 5 mins I reckon, I only left the house unattended for a hour to have a sandwich (its the building site house). Prolly a squatter in a house which has nothing, only stole bedding, blankets & cushions etc. Took food and medication from another house nearby.
There is… Apple can do it all for you.
Prolly Android can do the same.
