Fitting the coil packs should be no more than 2 hrs max Bob, tell the garage to go steady with the plastic plugs on the loom as they are very fragile! (Spares are available, but you dont want to be changing them if you dont have to)

It was the OS. It seems that I need Windows 10. Looking at the price of Windows 10 OS installation discs, I may as well just get another desktop PC with it already installed or just use what I have with AVG.

Cool

Morning Phil and fellow early risers.

Thick frost this morning but a glorious sunrise, not a cloud in the sky.

Still waiting for Zed the Ted to arrive.

Essential shopping today to Tesco’s in Callington.

Morning I had a similar issue with McAfee total protection in that it said the MacBook Pro 2009 OS was too old for it, so I use Avast instead. Before I migrated from windows to Mac, I had tried Nortons, AVG, the latter being easy to use.

Morning all, back to a frosty morning here today, I must change the thermostat tomorrow as it’s not going above 75 deg when the outside temp is freezing.

Morning all.

Dull, overcast, grey and dry here.

Not as cold as it has been but still a bit of frost. Thank heavens for the FBH .

M-in-L came round for dinner last night. Looks like it'll be a regular thing now that F-in-L has passed away. Roast chicken, roasties, carrots & broccoli. And then something we've never tried before; a sort of chocolate steamed pudding cooked in the slow cooker. Took 2 1/2 hours and was a bit odd as it sits on it's own sauce while it cooks. And, to steal Ian's words, it was bootiful

Hoping to get together with one of the young puppies later on. Maybe get some photos to share

Have a good one.

Morning Ian, we have been having a problem with flies landing and staying on our sliding patio doors overlooking the garden. As you know we have several cows and donkeys yielding good quality poo for manure. The animals attracts the flies

I would like the flies to go somewhere else.
Have you any suggestions? Is there something I can make up to attach to a tree some way off from the house the flies would go to?
