18 Hours later, well onto page 20!

Its a hot and divisive topic... 

Welcome to the 1980's

Still a great game, though - as were "Frogger", "Lemmings" and "Sokoban".

Of course, this is a personal opinion here ... .

Well apart from the old adhesive strips coming to pieces, requiring a bit of delicately-applied heat and brute force leverage (with my library card), that went OK. It's got a new battery and it booted up with no errors.

Thanks to the people at iFixit.

Just changed battery on a Sony experia, that wasn't too bad, just had to take out 6 torix screws and prise the 2 halves apart... (had to find a youtube video first though!)

Sounds OK - I had to deal with 5 different types of screw, 2 strips of hard-to-budge adhesive, a cable that you could have snapped if you opened the two halves without knowing it was there, two connector covers and about 5 connectors to disconnect. 

Thank you for that. It saved my sanity in an unnecessarily tedious conference call.

Online jigsaws: the perfect antidote to Zoom.

29.05 mins to complete it. Not done a jigsaw for donkey's years! My Nan used to love them.

I've just completed a (real) jigsaw of "On Early Shift" - the Cuneo painting.

It sounds like you might be looking forward to putting it through its paces.

After I’ve set up all the menu settings again following a factory reset!

(in reply to beast66606) Think the view is the other way round - it stopped on the viaduct at 1055ish (slightly late), then headed off to the station

Excellent, thanks for the link!

This morning, Glenfinnan is dry but windy and overcast.

At present the camera is doing slow pans across the landscape.

And by the morning of the 28th, the railcam had failed completely.  It must have been all that wind and rain...

11:45 - 104 pieces

Plenty more RhB jigsaws and others at this site, just do a search for trains

I spent a happy hour completing owl jigsaws on the link EWD posted, there's a really nice shot of a barn owl which was very enjoyable - especially as "my" owls are out and about at the moment so I'm seeing plenty of them - they are cleverly avoiding my camera though.

Wasn't the box there the one with four different bells for the boxes it connected with.

That phrase is yet another that most people under 40 will not understand, unless they live in Doncaster and have local Grandparents

.

Not just Donny, but all over the north. But my mum says she remembers her grandmother saying it (in East Kent of all places, no northern connection). So a bit of research led to the discovery that she probably heard it on the radio from Tommy Handley's ITMA, a show which I'd vaguely heard of from my elders.

Well that was a Calamari then? Was she a coming in over the rangers FC

Now then Cap'n, do not refer to our glorious leader in such a way.

A cup of green tea.

I had a small party coming up, so I went to buy one of those balloons printed with "your message here". The shopkeeper told me it was £5 for the balloon, £10 for printing and £99 if I wanted it blown up with helium. I said that sounded expensive. He said "that's inflation for you".

Is that to give you time to find your tin hat and sandbags ready for switch on?

Should be fun. Self-build PC is only way to get what you really want.

Drives me round the bend too - usually happens after trying to export a PDF twice without closing and reopening the document if that helps...

Tomorrow never comes

Is that Godot, then?

Might as well be Godot. It's like deja vu all over again.

Is it ####!
