I bought a multi diode laser from Ali when I was bored in the winter. Claimed power about a million Watts, true power maybe 10W, it is quite dangerous though.
I'm outside burning merguez sausages to put on buns. A wasp landed on the table, it gave off smoke after facing the laser.
I loathe wasps, maybe Chris Packham likes them. I'll box up all the ones I find and send them to him live if he likes them.

Anyhow, I'm back. A little east coast ride from Margate to Ramsgate and back. I've discovered that the car tells me when a tyre needs pumping up but it doesn't tell me which one. I had to use a tyre pressure gauge to figure out which one was the culprit. Also, the car has an economy button. It really doesn't do anything except make the car a little sedate. In fact, I've been getting an extra 10mpg since turning it off.

Most worn out button on my daily drive is the one marked ECO. Envious of you being near the coast today, I was thinking about the seaside earlier, its been a long time since I've seen the sea.
 
I bought a can of marrowfat peas by mistake the other week instead of my usual garden peas.

Won't be making that mistake again - the bloody things have been doing some really interesting things to my digestive system - and not in a good way. I thought I'd pulled something in my groin area, but no, the pain is being all bloated, gassy and horribly bunged. :sad:

Is marrowfat missing an r?

Found in the Yorkshire hills ...
My bike transport, aka a Peugeot Tepee, had it's MOT today. Track rod ends, a hole welded and a bulb resulted in a pass. Some other work's needed in the future, but not now.

It's done OK for the past 4 years and will be used heavily over the next year now racing's returned. I'd bought the battered Tepee and have slowly had the damaged parts of the bodywork interior during my ownership.

Next year it can go to my son as he wants it for university and I'll pop off and find something different.
