A Busy Week.

Well,
The Fair has been & gone.
I went twice & had fun on both occasions.

On the Wednesday I went with one of my best mates Mums (Auntie Pam), we were supposed to have another young lady along, but she couldn't make it.

When we got back to Pams, the gardener that her Dad was paying (far too much by the way) was there & looking for money.

The Long & the short of it is that the gardener is no longer working there.
He was supposed to build a wall for a raised bed, but he reckoned that it would take 16 hours, at his rediculous rate. Pam was very upset as she was soo looking forward to finally getting her garden sorted.

Now, you do not upset My Auntie Pam!

I was off from My day job on Friday & had arranged to get some keys cut for Pam & to fit a garden tap for her.

I did those Jobs In the morning & decided at about 11:30 to see about sorting this wall out.

at 4:00 I finished packing up and went home, there now is a dry stone wall, about 20 feet long and 2 to 3 feet high (the garden slopes), I also added another course of bricks to what was allready there to level off the brick part of the wall.

My thighs have been knackered ever since, all those large stones, and lifting with my legs.

Then on Monday Pam's pc goes south, first the fuse in the powercord blows, I replace this & then the psu goes with a big flash & bang.

We went to get a new psu, I fitted it and..........
nothing, still dead.

I popped home & grabbed a couple of spare motherboards & a spare old pc.
I spent hours trying to get a working pc for Pam, the closest I got was an old PII board to go to the POST, but the keyboard port was knackered.

A new Motherboard & cpu have been ordered, I'll let you know what happens when they arrive.

Peace Out
