My clean out of the Hedgehog feeding station has reaped rewards ( for the field mice community ). No sign of hedgehogs yet. Had news that " Tripod " the 3 legged hedgehog has recovered from injury and has been released into a sheltered garden habitat somewhere in Dorset.

Good morning all.
Drizzle and rain in for the day.
Good sleep last night. Woke at 5 and debated getting up but decided to try again and got another 2+ hours.
I was sure what i am doing but I've lost my car key. The spare went missing when I moved into the flat and now I can't find the main one. I will have another search when I am more awake.

Morning.
Grey, damp, the usual.
If it dries up and it's delivered early enough I'll be installing a new satellite dish on side of garage for Freesat. The old one failed so I took it down yesterday. What should be a fairly straightforward job is tricky due to access. I wanted it on garage so out of sight so it's above oil tank so awkward to work on. Health and Safety? Never applies at home....

Found my car key :smile: :smile::smile:. My SiL was sorting some cables out and it was among them.
I must get a spare cut but they are so expensive, especially when I just know my real spare will turn up as soon as the replacement is cut.
 
I've got a new mug :smile:

Halfrauds!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬

My car lights have been getting steadily worse, dimmer and dimmer in recent months. I've been at a loss on this. This morning I popped into my local garage, first name terms, social friends etc. and service both cars.

Brian took a quick look. "These bulbs aren't fitted correctly." Voila! Problem solved. Both bulbs had been fitted by a Halfrauds technician.

Brian tells me I can get better bulbs and if I do he'll pop them in. He said he had one customer with a bulb so badly fitted the housing melted. His final remark was never let Halfrauds fit ANYTHING!! We see this every day. 😲
