My morning tea was disappointing. It tasted stewed from the first mug. I'm moving on to coffee.

Morning all.

First frost of the year on my before work walk around the park.

Also probably my last early morning walk of the year in shorts

You won't be streaking ?

Morning.
I'm pinned down at the moment . Schrodie is having a nap on my lap .
It looks nice and sunny out with blue sky from what I can see from here .

Just had my first two cups of tea made for me
I reckon around 40 minutes before I need to let it out

Having got the electric pedal car working again has cheered me up . It has taken a while but I wasn't sure what batteries it used, but once the new one arrived things moved on . I had no idea why the car had been dumped. It could have been beyond repair for all I knew ! From what I had discovered from the net was that it had Bluetooth connectivity so I wasn't sure if this had failed and had caused the problem . Anyway! Once the battery was connected and by using a bit of basic use of a volt meter I managed to find where the power was reaching . A couple of fuses later and I had some sound . Now with a new rocker switch I have movement .
I just wonder now what an almost 3 year old will be able to demolish !

The other chap may be more stable but does he actually move ? I thought that Bernie Sanders had more go in him !

I do too, but very few people in The States will vote for Socialism. I would, but I'm an exception. The way I am judging this election is this:
Which candidate, either through neglect or malice, is most likely to kill me?

I had wholemeal toast with marmalade for elevenses.

I have located a local business that does puter repairs. I need to take a photo of the frame and email it to him. If the lugs are broken it may be too expensive to repair.

If I want one with a 17 inch screen, and not pay a small fortune for one, the options are limited. However, my Father took possibly thousands of slides. Yes, bear with me, I will get to the point. My brother has under taken the task of looking at all slides, and scanning the interesting ones. That will be our travels in India, Saudi Arabia and Mauritius to name a few.

As an Instructor in vehicle maintenance in places further back than the back of beyond, there are hundreds of slides of dismantled vehicles. Some people will find those extremely interesting (@Reynard ?) but there is a limit to what he can do. When he has finished, he says he will put the pictures on a DVD. Look, steady on, nearly there. Do I need a puter with a DVD "slot" to view them on my computer, or transfer them to a memory stick?

Cool, blustery and a mix of sunshine and showers here chez Casa Reynard.

I have spent the morning sorting out kitchen cupboards. Well, it started when I had to get to the boxes of loose leaf tea to fill my big tea caddy. And then it was like "I can't bloody find anything in here" So cleared it out completely and stacked in the fresh stuff I've bought that had been languishing in a box in the utility room (canned cupboard staples).

Am now wondering what I can possibly do with three ancient cans of tuna, two tins of olives stuffed with anchovies, a tin of artichokes and a tin of condensed milk...

You can get external DVD drives that plug into a USB port. I think they're around £20 or something of that ilk.

A lot of newer laptops no longer have a built-in DVD drive, alas. Something I found out while back...

Anyways, lunch...

Watch out for Leeds United splashing some cash.Postman has bought two lapel badges from a club shop.

You can I think get an external DVD reader which will connect to your computer.
