And to end the day, she curbed the car driving me back from the pub.  A pub where I fancied a shandy with my grub, but they had no lemonade.

HTF can a pub not have lemonade?

Serves you right for trying to ruin a perfectly good pint. :P

Please tell me it wasn't a half? ::)
I would normally agree, but it was so hot, and I was so thirsty, I wanted to glug a couple straight down, and my mission was not to get legless.


Today, managed a nasty burn after getting my fingers entangled in the extruder of the printer, at the point it claimed it was 200C.  Fortunately, due to Mrs TB's clumsiness, the house is full of Aloe Vera.  Still smarts, mind.

Sounds like you need to take up safer activities like mountaineering, lion taming or high wire walking. With your safety record, what could ever go wrong. :o :o :o

There are 2 types of people in this world.  Those that burn their fingers on extruders and those that lie about it :D

Whatever you do, don't buy a laser cutter like my mate has. </notjealous,honest>

Aloe vera is brilliant stuff - I know I got it under a cold tap within seconds, but I was expecting a massive blister as best case scenario.  Instead, I've got what looks like a bruise, and the skin is all very shiney and smooth, no fingerprint in that area.

I think I probably had a lucky escape, as I suspect that could have been quite bad.  Whilst at the time it seemed like ages, reality was probably I was only caught on it for less that a second.

I'm getting some reverse threaded nuts from a mate, you bulk bought a load ages ago, so he says I can have enough to keep my in props for a lifetime.

Jolly nice fella, he also said I can have some better props as well :y
