A Bit Wet.

January 7th, 2014

It’s rained a bit so far this winter which makes me a little miserable at times, my mood does take a plunge this time of year until we get a dolloping of snow but that’s looking a little unlikely at the moment. Really taking a battering and just hope things improve soon. Not liking this new theme either, seems the HTML I’ve been using for 8 years doesn’t work with this! So I will need to see what I can do about that when I can be bothered, which will probably be never. Left the transmitter project on a window sill and it corroded slightly and didn’t work, so I cleaned it, masked off all the plastic and put it under the grill to reflow and it now works again, although a couple of coil formers and a jack socket melted 😛

Keep dreaming I am back working in electronics, totally tired of domestic heating, I am qualified to design purge and test industrial gas installations in pipe sizes up to 2 meters and here I am bleeding radiators and fixing poxy leaky boilers! Time soon for a change. Got my radios set up in the garage which bothers me a little as it gets cold and damp so I butchered a blow heater and wired part of the elements upto a 13.8V supply to make a demister, so now I sling a blanket over them and they keep nice and dry… Kinda miss having that spare room for my stuff, I need that space or I go mental, specially with some of the shit that the TV is tuned into most evenings!

Now I need to book a holiday… Or some holidays, get in there before all the otherS. Organising something to look forward too is sometimes a good idea, I don’t do a lot so this year I will do a bit more… I just rambling from one load of bollocks to another here so I’ll jog on.
