the kids were left to their own devices in the back garden

I don't know kids around those ages, but it strikes me as pretty imagintive and creative of them. Maybe slightly misguided, though 😀

They all go to the same C of E school in our village, so I can't wait to see what happens when one of them gets asked what they did at the weekend.

They’ve not had anyone from Knucklas visiting have they? That would explain a lot of things.

Only if there's a modern Citroen C3 doing 30mph in the outside lane on the nearest motorway 😇😂

I've taken apart the air purifier with a suspected bearing failure today. Very very very very pleasantly surprised! It's not a bearing failure, something was fouling one of the vents, and somehow sounded the same as a bearing failure.

It's made of the finest Chinesium, however, it's screwed together and not glued together, all the clips are sensibly sized and easily reachable to detach, there's enough slack in the cables not to rip anything trying to remove it, and plugs are different so you can't mix them up, all the screws are the same making it easy to put together. Much more expensive manufacturers could learn a thing or five from Xiaomi! It all went back together, cleaned it up, and it's as silent as it was before. On top of it, the motor with bearing doesn't seem completely inaccessible, the bearing is not sealed with some gunk so you could, in theory, slip a new one if needed.

Great result, didn't expect this!

I don’t know actually. I did show them the Halloween episode of Bottom recently though.

Here's a certain 14 year old enjoying his impressive tally of 6 awards at a local dog show today...

He failed in spectacular fashion at 'temptation alley' where he was supposed to walk past 6 different bowls of food/treats, but managed to try and eat every last bit in each bowl.  Got joint runner up in best of show, which we might have to consider returning as he doesn't want his tea after scoffing treats all afternoon.
