Morning.
We have a stripey red sunrise here .
In other news it's just been announced that Lewis Hamilton has tested positive so won't be racing on Sunday .

A Lockheed Hercules stretched version has just flown out flying low .

Our Zafira that had been fixed, but needed the battery booster on Saturday, wouldn’t start this morning, even with the battery booster. So it’s now on trickle charge and we’ll see if it will start later. It started up fine yesterday. I believe, like our Yorkie, the Zafira doesn’t like the cold and wet.

Is a secret dossier full of blank pages ?

Morning from a bright and frosty shed-office. The new little oil filled radiator is on full blast. Looks like I have a meeting 'window' to get out on the bike around lunch - didn't get time last week.

I put my jar of honey in some hot water to de-crystallise it.

I'm currently updating my Linux Mint 19.3 OS to version 20. These things are never straightforward so I'm expecting fun and games in the configuration afterwards.

I've been handed a Kindle Version 3 (keyboard) that we've not used in a very long time. Won't charge. tested it, tried reset, think it needs a new battery.

OK time to dress up warm and get out on the bike. Not fitted ice tyres to the old MTB - they usually go on in November, but it's still rather soggy out and it's been our first proper frosty night since last winter. Might change that situation by weekend though.

That should mean Mercedes won't be in the last two races. Bottas is in the same bubble as Hamilton, as are some of the mechanics.

No idea, I know nothing about cars. When it went in the garage, it had a new battery and a crank shaft sensor, and the fuel injectors were removed and tested after showing a fault on the diagnostic machine (they weren't faulty). Although the garage did nothing other than replace the sensor and then remove and refit the injectors, the car started working again fine. It stood on the drive for a week (no where to go in lockdown), then started up fine when needed and been fine since (it was dry all week and not below 6ºC) until Saturday when it needed the battery booster to start. I've got it on the battery charger at the minute and it's nearly 75% done so far (it's been charging since a little after 7AM, so just over 6 hours).
