I wear Factor 30 Oil and top up frequently. Never burnt yet. After stupidly burning in Florida back in 2009 I make sure I’m well oiled. Hat always on. Unfortunately I’m not Mediterranean skinned like the Wife. But I do enjoy being in the sun and shade when it’s warm. Most of the time is spent in...

Back to the usual Grey, Miserable, Cold tosh that we’ve had when it’s not been raining the past 7 months. First person that whines when it’s 25 Celsius and sunny with 45% humidity is getting throat punched. I’d like to actually get my skin ready for the UV 11+ of Greece in September.

I’ll be honest today was beautiful. Was minus 1 when I got up at 0600 but shot up to 8 by 0730 and has been 15 celcius this afternoon. Very light breeze. Lovely. More of this but get progressively warmer. Not cold one day then 35 celcius and then back to 10.

Tried to give the Car its pre Summer polish and wax. Started off drizzling and 8 celcius, warmed up to a massive 10 then heavy rain showers with half an hour of sun in between. Managed to wash and dry, polish one mirror and bonnet then lobbed it down. Slapped some Autoglym Aqua wax on and...

Not since 2022. Vomiting for a few hours. Fell asleep in the hall close to the downstairs toilet. Then the back end for 5 days. Had take a load of immodium because i was flying to Greece. Then couldn't turd for 4 days in Greece. Was lovely to push out a fully formed turd. Currently on the end...

With Motonovo. Got my Kawasaki Ninja 650 for £7263 (intrest included) February 2021 on a 60 month term. Unfortunately for medical reasons im unable to ride anymore and looking to hand it back. From what ive you have to have paid 50% and i think im at that figure but my Maths is rubbish. How...

In Preston at work and can feel the ward block creaking in the wind. Much worse than the Amber Warning the other day. Other half at home in Rishton has just had to put some rope round the garden gate so it doesnt get ripped off the hinges.

The new shape Yaris is lovely. Had one of them in Rhodes in 2022. Lovely to drive. Especially on decently surfaced Roads. Even when the road started melting at 46 celcius.

Forgot to add also like the look of Ibizas and Leons. Even a golf if in budget like the 1.5 tsi jobby. And im 6ft for height reference.

Unfortunately Charger too expensive to fit currently. And as for work 4 charge points in the whole hospital.

Currently got a 2015 208 as my first car after commuting by motorbike for 20 years. looking to get Something newer But still reasonable to insure and cheap to run. 38 year old with 1 years ncb so insurance is still offensive at £800 per year on the 82bhp 208. Id happily have another newer 208...

Nope on the Odd number cycle for Samsung I'll wait for the S25. Current S23U is a fantastic phone. Can't wait to see EE's £900 a month deal.

I mean the only real thing I’m using it for is work training courses so that is just logging onto the works intranet and watching videos and answering questions. very light touching up of photos that I take at Manchester Airport. sat on the couch browsing the forums, Reddit etc. Watching...

Mainly gonna be for Web browsing, photo editing, and watching films on Plane, when we are away and Sky Go when i dont have access to main TV. The smaller the better. Open to Windows also.

Was looking to replace my ageing laptop with another Windows Laptop as per my post in Laptop section. But thinking things through I don’t need one just to play two or three games that I played in the past. however I am looking at the larger sized 12.9 iPad Pro to replace my IPad Pro 11 2018. I...

Still a good Camera to learn with. 700d is better. Don’t get a compact Camera. DSLR or Mirrorless. But Mirrorless is probably gonna be a bit out of budget.

I've just got a Canon 100d for £140 body only from CEX. Shutter count 1000 immaculate. Picked up a 18-135 stm from MPB for £164. Bit over budget. Can get a 18-55 stm or 50mm 1.8 stm for £50. Missus managed get a 700d for £160.

Thinking about getting a new Laptop for light photo editing (I’m not a professional) watching films on the plane and holiday and light gaming. Main game I want to play again is Black Mesa, Half Life 2 and Emulation for N64 etc. use my Xbox Series X as my main gaming system. Also use it for...

Not as cold this morning. Minus 3. Lots of heavy looking clouds around. Got a weather warning for 7-12 cm of snow today on phone. House 20-21 which is fine walking around in. 23 is better. Cats gone back to bed next to radiator.

Wake me up in March when Spring Begins. Cant stand Winter, only good thing is Greedy fortnight at Christmas when I eat my own body weight in food. Washed down with beer. The lovely smell of a christmas tree. From January the 3rd is just bleak horrible weather. Only seeing daylight on my days...
