What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

Refilled the brake fluid today with an eezibleed which always leaves the reservoir too full, fuckwit brainwave when I spot a big bit of fat tubing, I'll suck a bit into that then blow it out, turns out I've a better suck than a £50 whore and I got a gobfull of brake fluid 

 

It tastes horrific, as did the washing up liquid gargle to follow  

 

I think there's a lesson to be learned  :mad:

 

 

those sqirty tops from  bath side soap dispensers are handy ?

 

put bottom hoze in fluid and bang away ...

Last time I got asked for ID I was flattered and nearly asked them out

 

 

I didn't ever get asked for ID until I was 27.  Didn't get ID'd when I was 15.

 

Went into a pub a few years back with a (young looking but 28-year-old mate) and she was ID'd.  I laughed and told them how funny it was, given that I was younger than her and then they ID'd me.  Oh well.

You can get a primer bulb off eBay for about £2, they look like a rubber grenade and avoid those sort of experiences.

I slipped earlier and had a bit of an accident.

Why the grin? Well I usually wear welding gauntlets but I was only wearing thin gloves this time. Given how quickly a flap disc can munch through metal, I am extremely lucky this didn't end out much worse.

bought mp3 off amazon

 

put it into phone

 

downloaded their app :rolleyes:

 

logged in and - expecting this album only 10 songs

 

nope

 

319 tracks

 

wtf

 

have been on amazon since 2001 - dont buy this kinda thing off them much - cant remember doing all that :D

 

They give you MP3s of every song you've ever bought, regardless of format, so if you bought a CD (remember when people did that?) you also get a digital version, so you'll probably find that you've got MP3s of every album/single you've ever bought on there. Not just MP3s

That's what they all say.

Just look at some of the traditional Citroen owners on here and think on.

Look at Cavcraft. Whole life and career in suspension since he started on the Hydragas.

Is it registered for the road though, or just some crazy Brit expat using it as a garden ornament (or something)?

 

Yes it came up on carjam, but you only get the full report for money, so I don't.

I discovered by chance that I have around 100 hours of songs in my Amazon stash - oddly not for every CD purchased from them though.

 

Alexa still buggers it up though.

 

 

Grin of the evening is an owl 'owling in a tree just outside my window.

It is here periodically and has been for a few years ow, perhaps attracted by an owl in an aviary at the back of a house over the road.

 

I got lumbered with my son's dog over Christmas and when I walked it through the woods late one night it heard the owl and froze, looked bewildered for five minutes until the owl flew overhead and started hooting in a different copse of trees a hundred yards away.  Dog seemed mystified but then walked home calmly instead of dragging me as on every other occasion.

Terminator. Still a damn good film for a bored Sunday and it doesn't look 34 years old.

I don't believe 1985 was that long ago anyway.

A picture of the lunar eclipse, through a cheap 40mm telescope, taken with my phone.

Two second exposure through my 75-300mm long lens.

 

Not the best and I had to use my smartphone remote link, otherwise my hand was wobbling the camera too much on the tripod.  The best focus I could get with bare feet, concrete paving slabs and sub-zero temperatures in my pyjamas!

Clear skies here and went out at 2:30 ish but it was just like any other night.

May be escaping the daily grind a few years early owing to finding a little place in France at the right price that makes not working add up. Or at least not working as often add up.

 

If you could would you?

If the little place wasn't in france it'd be better. If I could learn languages, I keep trying & failing.
