  3. A friend said yesterday that their mother who's in her early nineties and just released from hospital on saturday after a very short stay has to pay £26.00 per month for a personal panic button......

    In my mind this should be free of charge considering the billions we wastE every year on feeding others around the world / home.!

  7. My first job about 25 years ago or so was fixing hoovers and electrical domestic equipment (every now and again i end up fixing something (the programmer last week on our washing machine needed a bit of treatment) - got given a Henry from my wife's workplace (she works at Aldi) - anyway...one of the cleaners tried to hoover up a tin of golden syrup which went straight into the motor housing....so stripped it down, cleaned it all out (by putting most of it in the dishwasher) and ordered a new motor....re-assembly tomorrow - nice freebie...

  8. IMG_1048.jpeg Few nights away R’n’R in a Spa Hotel near Guildford, went to Brooklands Museum today where I surprisingly found the aviation side of the history more interesting than the motor racing. Didn’t get time to visit Mercedes World as had a spa treatment booked but I was tempted to charge my BMW in their car park just for the hell of it :laughing:
