Yeah, I know what you mean about the rain, Stephen, it's still raining here as well. Our window cleaner sits in his car waiting for the rain to have a break, then he jumps out, cleans the windows, gets paid and then drives away quickly before the rain starts again.

Pauline,

It was safe enough......it was a part for a vehicle....a Lambda Sensor.....it measures the Gas mixture in the exhaust system and adjust the fuel mixture accordingly. I noticed the error almost as soon as I had done it.
CLEAN WINDOWS !!!!!!!! The amount of heavy rain we get the windows self clean ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

Marilyn, Hope the info was of use.

Linda, Take care of your 'new' hubby. Don't make him work too hard :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Morning all.

I've written this out once but when I clicked to submit it disappeared.

It's raining heavy here and very dark........... but still warm.

Who've you got coming today Marilyn? You might have said earlier in the thread but I'm too lazy to go back and have a look. :-)

Stephen, are you trying to kill yourself.......... messing about with wires when you can't see properly? I'm sure you can think of something else to do, err......... like cleaning the windows or............ well, just ask Mrs Stephen, she'll think of something for you to do.

Linda, did your hubby have a party at work on Friday?

Rita must still be having trouble with her Internet.

It's totally pouring down like a Monsoon here just now :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-( :-(

If I've got to stay in i'll get Cabin Fever :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\

I suppose I could try do some Office work, my admin has got a bit behind because I can't really see very well and everything takes three times longer to do.

Yesterday I had to connect wires together using very small terminals......I got two of the wires mixed up because of my poor sight just now and had to re-do the thing.....I was furious with myself. :-| :-| :-| :-| :-| :-| :-| :-| :-|

Have a good day ya all !

Keep safe , keep happy , keep smiling :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Bright and sunny here again this morning.
Off to see our youngest this morning. Then into a neighbours for drinks and snacks.
Helped a friend with her tree yesterday, she only started a month ago. Managed to find 3 more census, a possible birth and a marriage so not bad.

Be back later.

Another lovely sunny day here, very warm already.

Rita, I hope you manage to sort out your computer problems and that you are also having a good day.

Pauline, still having problems with your plumbing.?

Jean, thanks for the breakfast, but a little too much grub for me...LOL

Stephen, hope all goes well with your hospital visit.

Morning all, it's not raining here............ yet!! It's warm but very dull and it looks like the rain is on it's way.

Guess who I'm sitting here waiting for................ The Plumber!!!

Rita sent me an email to say she's having trouble getting on here again. Maybe her son will be over at the weekend to help her sort it out again.



Edit: Lovely breakfast Jean.

Stephen, I haven't read all that tree yet but you're very lucky that someone has already done so much work on that line............... saves you a lot of work.

Morning All !

Jean, Up and about early as usual. Nice breakfast to give me a kick start.
My eyes are coming along slowly. Still use the dark glasses a lot. Back to hospital next Friday. Very little site in my right eye, but I expected that as the years have gone on.
Thinking of a way to strap a pair of binoculars to my head. ROFL ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-)

Marilyn, Your Gransdson and the Marines. Will send an email. Too much info for on here.
The first step though would be to get him to join a Marine Cadet Detachment of the Sea Cadets. There will be one near where he lives, I'm sure. That's how I started my lad of at the age of 12.

It's raining cats and dogs here. Glad I cut the grass yesterday :-P :-P :-P :-P :-P

Have a good day ya all !

Keep safe , keep well , keep smiling. :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

Useless Information but worth a wee laugh


SPORRAN

If a Highlander was to take this off you'd be shocked!
It would stretch twenty four feet ... the kilt that is !!!!!!!!!!
