Well it's actually finished as of 2pm today
That's almost exactly seven months and two days from when the first plasterer started chipping the plaster off and decided it was a big job, (26th July 2023 at 2.30pm)
I think it is the crows that take mine.
How do you plant a crow
Sounds like a murder...
feet first, so they take rootHow do you plant a crow
Evening all.
Busy day.
took Disco in for MOT.
My usual tester had to go to hospital for a check up on his heart so the other blokey had to do my MOT.
It failed.
Not on what I thought it might, but on two patches of rust in the rears of the front wheelarches.
"Integral body structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced...."
Plus a list of advisories as long as your arm but which boiled down to "your rear tyres are a bit naff, there's rust on your springs and your brake pipes, it leaks oil and you have taken your passenger seat out" and the weird one "slight play in bot track rod end ball joints" which I thought I had replaced fairly recently.
so mobile welder will be called upon.
Went to chat with the mate with the D3/4, which he wants to sell. It's done 150k but has the straight 6, 3 litre engine not the one that busts cranks, Beautiful condition, leater interior, etc, but we will be working on stopping it belching oil smoke out, which he thinks is seals on the turbo. He hasn't come up with a price so I am prevented from being tempted!
Took W to the hospicle again, X-ray of knee which has got much worse since the fall last week as she sort-of fell again yesdi, between two cars, she caught herself by grabbing hold of the wing mirrors on hers and the next vehicle. But she has done it no good. Nothing broken but she is in massive pain so I am back on wheelchair and other domestic duties. Nurse put her on light duties and "If it doesn't improve in a week, " blah blah. She'll be seeing the doc on Thurs. Hate seeing her in pain. Much worse than the broken ankle. Damage to ligaments or possibly worse still cartilage.
Haven't really had time to work on the "not printing text" situation much, but since I have just put W to bed I tried again and still no dice. So made it print the word document in Red then blue. That worked!! Then had the idea of simply getting it to photocopy in black. Blank sheet came out.
So it is deffo a printer problem, with black ink. The ink level indicator tells me it has black ink in it but I am going to try another refill to see.
So put one in, tried to print a black text Word document, and NOW it WORKS.
Which just proves that you should never trust a computer when it tells you there is ink available.
All this blasted fuss for something so simple.
Still at least it is one problem solved. But furious at all the time I wasted yessdi cos I believed it when it told me there was ink there. Not even a warning like "You need to change the ink tank, mate!" It SO nearly got taken out the back and attacked wiv a lump hammer.
Anyway I cooked us a Ragu Bolognese tonight, all from fresh ingredients except for the "passata" which came from a bot/jar. Deelish!!
Enjoy what is left of the evening folks!
Is this the D2 your having issues with ?? if so id put that printer in the back of it & scrap them both.
Sorry about your wifey she seams to be getting a hard time of it I do hope she recovers soon.
BTW ye didnt make yer own pasta shame on you
It's all to do with sentence analysis - subject, verb and object - this makes it easy for you to understand what was being buried.How do you plant a crow
Of course it is the D2.Is this the D2 your having issues with ?? if so id put that printer in the back of it & scrap them both.

but I am v surprised that he failed it on that. I have yet to look closely but the rust didn't seem to have "perforated" is that the word? I.e. I couldn't see it being holed anywhere.And again, how can it be structural in a Disco?
Mobile welderer coming at 7 a.m. tomoz to give me a quote.
Printer is fine now. Used it a lot today. Nothing wrong with it, it just needed ink. Twas the fault of the software that tells the owner the ink levels, inaccurately.
As for the pasta, can you imagine how difficult it would be to make homemade gluten free pasta, which it has to be for W?
Pasta or Passata??? I put my hands up to not making either from scratch.
I made us some Mexican thing tonight. She enjoyed it. Mexican is the only spicy food she'll eat.
She is a bit better today, less in pain and she was able to sleep better. Thanks for your good wishes!
Hope you had a good day!
Morning all!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mornin orl. Mucky weather again, but a bit milder.
Going to see a kitchen company later, apparently they are actively looking for older workers because nippers today are idle and unreliable. Would mean going back to a five day week however. Will see what they put on the table.
Have a good day.

For your sake, so do we!
Tenamen might work better.
