Working from home

At least until I need to get my train. Thought I'd kick off a few models whilst nobody else was using the system.

Yesterday was a pain.

Too close to call

I've ran 2500 models since I started tracking them in 2015, however I've been pushed back into 2nd place in the team for the year recently.  I am about to hit my busiest period so will be top of the league by the end of August and will kick on for the title during September.


Last year I won by 231 model runs.  Worryingly i've got 3 weeks of holiday left to take and 2 week paternity so I will lose a good months worth of model runs in the final quarter of the year.  It might be close.

MOT

Got an e-mail from Audi about our car need its MOT updated soon.  Only £49.99 which I reckon is pretty good.  The service isn't due yet so will put that off for a while but apparently our air conditioning is.  £79 later.  It soon adds up.

I walked past the back of the Wetherspoon in Tonbridge last night and there was an impromptu spout of  Morris dancing.

Pub refurb

One of our local pubs has had a bit of a refurb


The toilets now have deodorant... 

CSI Tonbridge

I was hosing down the cat's litter tray yesterday and spotted this in the garden

Crime scene



 Zoom and enhance


 Witness / culprit?

Here's the new carpets

Cats have been banned from both rooms.



I think they've turned out pretty well.  I should hope so as it cost over £1k.

Working from home yesterday

Working from home


And then from the Fire Station (for lunch)



Had to work from home yesterday as we were getting some carpets fitted in our bedroom and then the new nursery.

Someone's found a new bed

Poppet's taken to sitting on my laptop and case whilst the scary electrician blows fuses in the bathroom.

Useless twat

I had to get my phone repaired again today.  Looks like after the glass repair I had done a month ago on my phone camera also introduced some dust (after the fix).  So i've now had the whole camera replaced.  It all looks good but am annoyed.

I wish I had the non British aggressive twat gene that meant I could argue with a random shop worker about getting it done for free as am sure it was still in warranty.

£50 on top of the £20 I spent earlier.  Could be worse, I could have dropped my tablet in the bath on Sunday.  Oh year, I did that too.  What a twat!

At least it means my surface pro gets to see more daylight.  Other than watching stuff in the bath (where I will never take it), and it being a fair bit heavier I think I will survive.

In fairness, my tablet is 3 years old now and has had a couple of incidents where i've dropped it and cracked its screen so it's served me well.

Time to move forward.
