Today I did some hardware maintenance and tried to fit some new extras, with limited success.

Hen party shows up on man's doorstep after renting new home in Bath. When Mr Temprell later tried to reach Booking.com he found he could not speak to a person without a booking reference - so he booked his own home for a break next year. "It gave me a 10% discount, which was lovely," he said. […]

It is a terrible heist film. If you want to see an action film of people being shot in the head for no plot reason then maybe watch Play Dirty, but, there really wasn't a writing team working on the plot […]

There's going to be one happy little #rabbit in the house this weekend (and for weeks to come).

40. This is a book we bought in the V&A sale for £2 and I've not properly looked at it til now - it's brilliant! It's a book of prints and posters by artists from Africa and the African diaspora and divided into sections covering place, history, memory, identity and protest. #52ArtBooks25

Clickbait article: "5 clever ways I reuse the old USB flash drives I have laying around". You guessed it. Everyone 'clever way' involved saving things! Join me later when we look into 19 amazing things you can 'put' into a cardboard box. 🙄

So (north) America has more mass shootings than days?!? Again. Thoughts and prayers?

I gave Bert a hug. He didn't really want one for the first minute but succumbed for the next 15. We sat in the garden before it starts to get too cool for such things. The drool patch on my t-shirt shows how content he was. #rabbit 🐇

There was either no rapture or so few people were raptured that noone else has noticed.

@smolrobots I keep coming up with ideas for #smallrobots I could do with, but I don't know if they already exist - is there somewhere I can search for them? Do we need a small robot duplicate checker robot to pair ideas together when they match!

This is my #gopro Hero4 Session camera. I've used it for several hours every week since I got it in 2016. This is my sales pitch for technology that just works and keeps on working.

The rapture is upon us!

Well if it turns out that Trump is correct and injecting bleach, shunning vaccines and refusing paracetamol were the correct things todo, then we're all going to look very stupid.

Anyone got a time for this rapture? Working out how to plan the day.

Just realized I forgot to post my annual advice to college students before the school year started – but well, it's never too late to start: - GOING THE FUCK TO CLASS - GOING THE FUCK TO BED - DOING YOUR FUCKING HOMEWORK THIS IS THE MAGICAL TRINITY OF NOT HATING YOURSELF OR FEELING YOU'VE […]

Today was a surprise hoho bus tour day after we discovered there's a #PeakDistrict one. Two routes, Bakewell, Chatsworth, up to Mam Tor and all the bits in between. Bit chilly on the tops, but a really good one if you're in the area and want to see a lot.

I fear I am living in a crap 70s sitcom. We are having some building work done next week so we've ordered a skip to be delivered today. Also today our next door neighbours are moving out. Skip wagon arrives about 11-ish, knocks next door who tell him that no they haven't ordered a skip but […]

“since when does it matter where I save things to???” My daughter enters college and discovers the file system for the first time.

I am cool. @bethgg.bsky.social told me I wasn't. So I'm going to build a radio receiver big enough that I can connect to Meshcore - that'll prove I'm cool.
