Good Morning Thread - Come say good morning, tell us what you've got on today. :)

We have this thread on TilersForums.com and it's just been restarted because the old thread had 20,000 replies and 500,000 views. And there were 700 pages. Started to lag a bit on slow connections.

I think we had a bash of this before, but I can't find the thread, so thought I'd start another one off.

If you have time in the mornings, come post in the thread before you head off to work, let us know what you've got on and what the weather is like in your area etc. Anything at all is fine.

Posts and likes get counted towards your total stats in this thread.

So GOOOD MORNING PEOPLE - WEATHER IS NICE TODAY IN STOKE. I'M THANKFUL IT'S FRIDAY, HAD A RUBBISH WEEK. THANK GOD IT'S OVER.

I'm home and just about to take my favourite family member out - my dog.

The super moon still shining bright at 6am.

Today I've got a heavy day of procrastination planned. There's lots of stuff for work that I need to catch up on but can I be bothered?

 

[littlespark]

Trip over to York from Scarborough today so wife could visit and old school friend, and I could browse through a second hand Lego shop.

Got lunch at the local Tesco

Now normally, I drink Coke, not Pepsi…. Full fat, not zero sugar and nothing coloured strangely… but today I thought I might try this…… just because of the name.

Beautiful morning here after a very wet, windy and thundery day yesterday.
Spent early morning doing housekeeping then a beach walk followed by a carajillo...I'm gonna miss this when I return to sunny Scotland on Tuesday, but I have booked flights for another week out here in November when I will be fitting a CCTV camera outside on the terrace so I can enjoy the view over the Winter and beyond. I know I can just get the camera in an underseat bag and the other bits I need will fit in the capacious pockets of my travel jacket. I won't bore you with the details, but to take a full size cabin bag adds £186 to the cost of the flight....however, you do get speedy boarding thrown in!

you're going to beep a lot walking through the metal detector with all that in your pockets.


I once worked at the Army base North of Arbroath, and one day they were high on the security and checked every car going in and out.
Opened my boot, and there's a box with wires hanging out of it....

"test kit! honest!"

This week I'm near Sleaford doing some maintenance on a GSU TX and 2 aux TX. Been pretty good so far. Hopefully get them all finished today, maybe tomorrow morning then home to see my dog The daughter is in Manchester doing her exam to become qualified in testing asbestos samples today.

What was it like mate?

 

[Moley]

So far today is really boring. Had to drop my van off to a Ford dealer at 9am for its recall. Now I'm just wandering aimlessly around Merthyr. Now if any of you have ever been to Merthyr you'll know that after the first 10 mins you'll either be mugged or suicidal. I've been here since just after 9 and the van won't be ready until 2pm. I haven't been mugged yet so by 2pm I might be face down in the river.

 

[Dan]

What's being fixed on the van @Moley ?

 

[Moley]

There's a recall on the new shape Transit. The software in the body control module needs updating to fix a bug where the alarm goes off for no reason. When I'm at home I don't lock the van as it just randomly goes off. Not so bad in the day but a pain at night

 

[Dan]

No way that is an issue! Must be on all the models with that body control module then. Good that they're fixing it I guess then but bad it existed in the first place!

Keep your head down for a bit then but hopefully not in the river ha
