Spoke too soon

After crying every time I left the room after lunch, eventually I crated him and he calmed down. He had to come in the van as I ran an errand, earlier.

Seems like whatever I did worked, he has been flat out all evening. Bliss.

four feet

Top one is for edge binding

Trying to work out what mental stimulation works for him is the big question!

I hate this wire, so it was a good test for practice. Need more practice to get back into it!

I’ve spent too long doing big blob joins on large stuff.

Did a few badly to see how it copes reflowing, and seems fine with the MG chems leaded solder.

Soldering station is good, holds 300°C pretty steady which is great. At least my VC97 is beeping for continuity on all the gammy joins.

Waiting on 30 gauge jump wire to arrive (probably midnight, knowing amazon) and then I can see how I feel with soldering the thinner stuff.

This is the identical to my first one, albeit with a white face instead of black. That’s the one G that I miss more than any other watch.

Also, about 30 years ago when I owned it.

Very tempted to buy the solar version of that watch.

Fingers crossed it’s that simple.

I remember with the 125 (and XJ600) being told to do the occasional long run to make sure the battery gets a good charge. At that time all I was doing was long runs so definitely no issues!

Might try train him to play Tekken

This is where the OH and I have reached in discussion.

He loves the treats involved in a puzzle ball but gives up easily on difficult toys. He seems to know when it’s effort.

It’s only 3 weeks so far, so he’s barely settled. Hopefully we find out what mental stimulation (short of next door’s cat) gets him tired out.

Need to find a sweet spot before he’s running ultra-marathons and I’m in a wheelchair.

Morning walk is 2 miles it turns out

Asshole better sleep now.

(OS Maps estimated 1hr32… we walked it in barely an hour)

Pretty sure these are no longer accepted

Well, either:

The battery doesn’t hold charge (new battery)
The battery isn’t being charged (new charging system ie stator/regrec)
The battery is being drained (electrical gremlin)

Fire up the quattro etc

If lights are present they must be complete, secure, and functional.

To be road legal you need a speedo. Not necessary for the MOT but useful to leave on.

You need a number plate, a horn, and normal working brakes etc.

My Sherco has no lights at all, no headlight no brake light, no indicators. It has a bicycle speedo, and a 9V-battery Megahorn.

If you can, remove all the lights as a whole.

If you want to leave a light on, you may find it’s a case of the tester wanting a tail light to suit the headlight.

Is the reg/rec /stator charge system working properly?

Any bike tracker/alarm installed?

baby’s first antler

Yes indeed. This is the way for lunch and dinner.

Actually yes!

Because he's so damn skinny as a rescue, we're making sure his muscle mass returns before going for the insane-long walks.

I walk him for an hour or so once he has time to digest breakfast.

So far walking him for an hour, plus a run about near the squirrels, plus a play, and he'd not switch off.

Give him a big bowl of food, boom, sleepy boi.

I just bit the bullet on the CSI 75W... fingers crossed!

standard puppy

He's apparently 3 years old. I think it's a lot due to poor boundaries where he's a rescue.

Probably he has never learnt what is acceptable behaviour.

We had a small brown gift left for us this morning, which is a first in nearly 3 weeks. A little surprised, but I guess he just couldn't hold it any longer.

Way too fiddly. Need a printer.

This asshole is hungry and bored all the time.

This was yesterday after feeding AND 1.5hours of playing. He gave up licking liver paste because it was too difficult, and eventually retired to his crate.

Yo-yo training is hit and miss. He doesn’t care if you go upstairs or leave him alone especially if already fed… but even well-fed and walked, he won’t let you leave the house and lock the door behind you.

Stay in? Sleeps for hours.

Really need to work out what set of actions gets the right result.

Also, he’s still very bite-y when I leave him with the OH. She hasn’t learned to be a strong voice yet, but leaves the room until he calms down.

Yes!

Looks like that set of 10 extra tips has a few chisel and blade types that should do for most jobs.
