Nice place he has there!

There isn't room to turn a bike in my back yard so I would only be able to ride 3 metres before stopping. Hard to get fit doing that... :laugh:

I've been trying to master the skill of getting into those bomb-proof plastic blister packs. My replacement USB mouse came in one yesterday. I could see the USB cord at the bottom of the pack, and the mouse in the middle, so I attacked the top with scissors...…………...and sliced through the cord that was secretly wrapped round the back of the pack.
Here's a couple of piccies of the replacement that I got today. I'm plucking up courage to try again.

I needed to get a C2032 battery out of a Duracell pack the other day. I managed it in under 3 minutes. I normally end up swearing for longer than that.

Ha ha!

Funnily enough, I have recently started using a USB mouse on this laptop. The left button seems to be getting a bit iffy because I kept accidentally doing double clicks instead of single clicks. I was thinking that I would have to buy a new one, but discovered that adjusting the double click speed on the mouse control panel was enough to filter out the spurious second clicks.
