I'm very proud of how polite I just was when the Vauxhall garage called me up to book my Grandland's MOT - calmly telling them I no longer have the car, rather than screaming "you mean the one you had for months while I tried to sort out it the fact it had eaten it's own engine?!"

I'm so used to my phone just doing the right thing when I travel that somehow I forgot that it forced it's timezone to GMT at some stage.

So I spent the whole day in Malta thinking it was an hour earlier than it was, which wasn't a problem until we tried to go to our restaurant reservation...

As a child (and frankly, adult) who (a) loved reading, and (b) hated being forced into fancy dress, World Book Day is a horrific idea that needs to die in the same fire as that fucking Elf.

I can genuinely think of no way you could have put me off books as a child more effectively then forcing me to "dress up as my favourite character"(*)

(*) limited, of course, by what i was willing to admit, and wear, and that my mum could possibly have fashioned

I know one swallow does not a spring make, and all that, but my BirdNet detected it's first housemartin which is almost as good!

Just as I'm trying to remember how Blithub hangs together so I can move it to some new hosting, I'm getting me emails offering £1Bn of business loan - not gonna lie, it's tempting.

A quick reminder (because I forgot, and you might too) that they've changed the rules on Postal Voting in the UK, and you *probably* now have to apply (every three years, no less!) instead of just, you know, ticking the box.

(I won't try and offer links because every country - and possibly region - seems to be different)

This is presumably because some idiot has bought the certain parties' lies about how all postal votes are fraudulent, or something /sigh

Have to confess to being impressed by our DNO; finally got around to reporting our excessive supply voltage (peaked at 257V today!), expecting ... well, not much.

Certainly didn't expect two trucks to turn up within the hour, and a nice chat with the engineer who (a) didn't just blame my solar, and (b) has wandered off to the transformer to kick it.

Might not be an instant fix because, of course, it's drifted down to 252V now, but if not it'll get a voltage logger and, later, a fix hopefully!
