I'll try again later with the desktop PC. I've just buffed the rubber tyre marks off the alloy wheel & used a light cutting compound on the light scratch on the wing with great success so no damage done

Don't know which Nextbase you've got but mine is a basic 212 and it's easier to just take the SD card out and plug it into a PC.

Good luck with getting some good footage. I'm guessing that the wheelie antics were to try and hide the number plate - or just proving that they're an idiot .

Glad all the marks have come off OK.

Fingers crossed for you.

Siopao mark2 much better. Made 18, Ging supposed to be sleeping (nightshift) but the smell must have filtered through to the bedroom. She had three before I chased her back to bed!



In case you don't know what siopao is, "Chinese" steamed "buns" with a filling of pork cooked in soy sauce etc. Best eaten with a bit of hoisin sauce.

Cheers Andy, Nope still no luck! I keep getting the error message file not recognised I've had this Nextbase 512 for a few years now with a Sandisk 64MB card that's never been any trouble to upload to my phone, I don't know if the SD card has become corrupted or what but it's never given me any trouble before.
Just glad there's no damage done.


Just ordered another SD card off the bay along with a new Old Lancashire battle flag as mine has gotten tattered over the years .








Pork chops with sweet potato herby wedgies for tea tonight.

Try formatting the SD card, you're not going to lose anything if it won't download anyway.

Yum those look moreish Steve I love those dumpling dishes.


Yeah I'll try & reformat it, The dashcam I had before this had a no name SD card in it & did exactly the same thing & wouldn't recognise the files I tried to look at dashcam footage from months ago to see if it was recent thing but got the same error message

[trikey]

Evening all, another busy one, did the tip run, walked Meg, Mr D arrived with a bag full of hobnobs (As did AndyN01 yesterday) My biscuit cupboard is looking rather full!

Spent a couple more hours in the garage adding more wires to the trike, time for some food now...

Evening all, been out a retro car meet today some nice cars on display and was not the only rover on display. A little Rover Metro decided to pop along too.

Windows or Linux?


I find Linux is less "fussy" about getting into files - but this will be teaching granny to suck eggs.

Fingers crossed you'll get something.

Note to self - pull the card, copy the footage and reformat every couple of months or so just to be on the safe side for the future.

Morning all, morning Jeff and thank you for doing the demo. I have ordered the echo 4th generation international version and it should be here tomorrow.

During the day we don’t watch any TV, instead we have been listening to the BBC World Service, buts it’s so depressing, so I thought I would stream music and give Alexa a try as those devices can be bought locally.

To answer your question the other day about swimming, I went back to it yesterday after having a break for 3 days. Now instead of marking the number of lengths, I set a timer of 15 minutes so I don’t overdo it.

Another hot week is forecast 30C almost daily, we don’t have A/C in the house but we do have fans and a cold water pool for chilling.

I didn’t realise your A/C has Alexa built into it. How clever is that, roll on summer!

Morning all, how is everyone?
