I had a lucky find this week, was moving stuff around in me bedroom, cleaning and getting ready for the paint brush. There was a lotter old boxes on top of the wardrobe an I asked SWMBO ( politely) if she would check them over and bin the surplus to requirements. There was an almost new smartphone in its box - she had upgraded a couple of years ago and forgot about it. I have always relied on family members to donate their old phones to me and that way I have kept a payg sim in use for the last 16 years. But now I will have to get a noo sim cos they are different size now :(. Anyway, I have got tinter web onnit and I can listen to the radio too ( but need some gaffer tape as the ear plugs keep falling out of me lugs). And me stubby fingers are not yet educated to their new job and I have taken loads of photos of the ceiling, carpet, bits of dog and anything else not aimed at. I'm nearly a 21st century dude :p.
Eye bort me own wileyfox smart fone so eye saves loads of money by not renting the latest must have fone. Eye keeps them for as long as eye can. Eye be tight with spending as eye feel robbed if it int wurffit. Gorra pay n go sim anorl.
 
Done me oil change. Fashioned a sump oil catcher out of a spare oil bottle, with a slot and panel cut out so it fits over the anti roll bar and tucks up under the gear box so when the oil shoots out horizontally when the plug comes out the oil is captured runs out the neck and into the bowl on the driveway. Successfully drained the sump without a drop going on the driveway or up my sleeve :D - until I dropped my extension bar into the full bowl and splashed a bit onto the driveway :mad:. I think theres a gremlin lives under me landy and demands a few drops of oil. Had a job getting into the landy to start with, the central locking kept instantly re-locking itself, thought part of the mechanism was frozen up (sub zero last night) but once I got in and checked the battery voltage it was flatter than a witches boobs so thats on charge today.
