Roomba is back!

Roomba is back and working as good as new.  So glad - the carpets were starting to look a bit uncared for.  They replaced his CHM (cleaning head module) for a green one which has slightly different bearing faces - we'll see if this works better with the cat hair???

More shirts

Decided to add a few more colours to my wardrobe so stopped by my favourite shirt makers and bought a few more.  As a bonus they allowed me to exchange a single-cuffed shirt I bought by accident for a double-cuffed equivalent.  They also had some black label shirts on sale again :)

Smart Sold

With a week left on insurance and tax we sold K's Smart. K was very upset and even cried a little when it left. It was such a cool car to drive - it'll definitely be missed.

Roomba Broken

So, sad news, my robot vacuum cleaner broke. The somewhat too common problem of the gearbox becoming full of hairs. Not all bad though - still under warranty so UPS picked it up today for a trip to Germany to be fixed. Hope it is back soon!

Mud and Cold

Brrr - went out for a ride today around the woods of Hertfordshire and boy was it cold!  Managed about 11 miles of sticky, sodden ground including the largest hill in the area.  Was quite surprised I didn't fall off once :)
