[Gravity Aided]

I've fixed my laptop

I took the battery pack out, cleaned the terminals up a bit and blew some dust out.
Two screws and a tyre lever to ease it out of its slot. Sorted

I handed Herbie back to his owner this morning...

...and got two rather nice bottles of wine in return.

Isn't that called hostage taking?

Spent the morning and early afternoon doing Cats Protection stuff. It got me out on the bike too, so win-win.

Also had a bit of a "kitchen day", which involved cooking the marinated pork shoulder I got on YS last night. Did it in the crock pot, and added lots of extra onion and garlic. Have pulled the meat apart with a couple of forks and left it to cool in the gravy. Will pop that in the fridge in a bit, and then it'll do for some nice sandwiches, salads and maybe a pasta dish as well. It's quite spicy (there was a fair bit of chilli in the rub) but it's very nice. Well worth the £2.40 I spent on it - was marked down from £8.

Took the smoked haddock to my neighbour - he was well chuffed with it. He loves it, bless him, but can't afford it at the full whack. Lovely to put a smile on someone's face.

Now I'm just chilling with a and a biskit.

You know you're drunk when you're watching Horizon and you understand quantam mechanics.

I once had to translate a document from French into English with the subject being Max Planck and his quantum theory. It was challenging, shall we say.

" Lycra Virgin ! ". Worn shorts for the very first time !

I was just thinking . I've only worn them once and felt a bit of a prat . I normally wear jeans but I almost tried them on again last night before going out for a short 5 mile ride . I think it was another on the spur of the moment decision so it was get out as quickly as possible without too much faffing about .

I feel the same, for lots of different reasons. Sometimes life seems to go around in ever-decreasing circles, sorting out other people's problems.

Wanna here and help me deal with this large bar of 50% belgian chocolate? It's the usual remedy for my problem, but it seems to be one of those universal salves for loads of others as well xxx
