Good morning daily

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Who said the water pump for the Winnie would never get here ..... could have been me actually ...... but it appeared on the Winnie steps around lunch time, 6 days earlier than the extended delivery estimation .....

Now I've organised all these other jobs to fill in the time while waiting, the Bay to Birdwood next weekend and a trip to Shepperton to pick up the container dome and I doubt I'll have it installed and the Winnie back on the road by then ...... ..... maybe the dome will be up and ready for the first job under cover ;) :lol:

Good thinking Terry. A covered work area on a concrete slab. So you are working in the shade and out of the weather. Sounds like a top idea.
Cheers

Good morning everyone. It's warm and windy with another high UV day coming up. Might hit 30⁰ according to BoM.
I went to the dentist for lunch yesterday. An hour in the chair and another 3 hrs for my face to wake up again. Not much fun.
I'm waiting for the oldest gkid to bring his little car around so we can fix the heater controls. It's been on heater for a while. The little clips needed to fix the problem cost $8 each.
Nothing much else to report.
Safe travels all those out and about.
Enjoy the rally ball tonight Jon.
Cheers

Good morning All. 32* forecast but the moment it reaches 23* inside the house the aircon will be switched on in Dry Mode.
I spent some time yesterday trying to sort out the MH radio and 2 way without success. I think it may be the aerials but took the 2 way to a repairer to have it checked out however, it maybe next week before any result.

Managed to break the water pipe to the tap on the other side of the slab, even worse than the demolition people did, I actually made it leak :roll: Yet another plumbing repair, at least the mains tap works now :D

7 Sport doesn't seem to have any sound, happened last night, it was on and off for most of the afternoon, then off completely ..... Hope I don't end up forced to go with one of the pay providers .... that might test just how much I really want to watch it ......

Certainly warming up here at the moment .......

Terry, you can either pretend it's electric car racing with no V8 sound, or do as I do, turn the sound down so you don't have to listen to the commentators fluffing on about some irrelevant point. I turn on the subtitles a lot of the time now anyway.
And just imagine its big banger racing from back in the day.

Good afternoon All.
I have been having instances with our house solar system in that the output very frequently drops to zero and today I noticed that the mains supply reached 259V which causes the inverter to shut down until the mains reduces.

This graph shows what is currently happening today, bright and sunny. https://server-au.growatt.com/index

Sorted the sound problem ..... apparently you can mute the sound in the tab bar as well as the sound control in the task bar and in the actual live stream ..... seems I must have accidentally muted the tab sound icon :oops: "Wha can ya do", as Con the Friuterer would say, "Doesn' Matta" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=teitdS2Dksk can't believe that was over 13 yrs ago comedy on TV has lost it's spark these days .....
