      I'll fire up my forum VM later and step through the code to find out what's happening

          Wouldn't know. Sat in a hot sweaty windowless conference room listening to a PM explain why none of the issues on the project were his fault.

              Thanks! Just found a bug in the code that only came to light when I got a developer to fix another bug from yesterday. Currently waiting for the dev to respond to me.

                Dear Deity, a mere drive to Newport & back has knackered me.

                By the time I got back here I thought my left leg & buttock were about to fall off.

                The Idle Nephew & Next Door Neighbour now has a Spear & Jackson self propelled petrol mower.

                With his lack of doing any fecking thing at all it's probably money down the drain.

                It's his birthday present for the next 3 years, until the warranty runs out.

                2kW angle grinder obtained from Lidl(tm) for a good deal less.

                Oh, and it's been intermittently sunny and pissing down all the way there & all the way back.

                The bit in Neath was almost like mist.

                <hiatus>

                This morning's purchased transferred from the car to the shed & the Salting House.

                The angle grinder is a damn sight lighter than that fecking lawnmower.

                Once her next door's soaking wet jeans that I rescued from the lawn have finished their economy wash, they'll be in the TD while I go & visit my mate.

                It's all go for the almost retired.

                  And I'd have gone (75-3) x 10 = 720
                  8+9-5 = 12

                    OOH, YER BUGGER! That was a close run thing

                      Shocking numbers again. I'm embarrassed.

                      Didn't deserve to win that one.

                      Tomorrow's top has large holes under the armpits (favourite comfy top which has now been binned) - let's hope I don't have to put my hand up!
