Huawei with you and your **** jokes.
Ordered last week, arrived today from Italy (no customs issues) but will hold off fitting till it warms up a bit in case it results in a breakdown
At first glance I thought it was some high tech water-cooling for your phone

Christmas prezzies to me
Finished upgrading the new spindle on my little 3020 CNC router, and it was indeed tricky. Rather than machine a new mounting block entirely, or try to fit the supplied clamp block (which would have involved at least as much work) I managed to adapt the existing one-sided clamp. It needed boring out - moving the center point out away from the stepper motor (it needed more clearance) then slicing it in half and making it into a clamshell type clamp. That was because the ends of the new spindle were 2mm wider than the middle and it wouldn't just slide into a correctly sized bore hole. Like I said, a PITA

Ain't a Henry tho is it.
Got one of those, ideal for the dirty work as such.
Dyson has a much bigger wife approval factor

In a completely unrelated Q, do you find the door on your coffee machine pops open on start up sometimes? Super ******* annoying.Been wanting a cordless vacuum for a few years now. Finally bit the bullet. Seriously impressed with the power for something battery powered.
Not that I know of. I don't drink coffee, it's the wife's. But she's never complained about it so fairly sure it doesn't do it, as I'd soon know about it if it did haha.

Enjoy it! We love ours to the point I feel like I'm finding an excuse to do the stairs every other day. They're not cheap but if ours blew up today we'd buy a new one tomorrow.
The V11 was our first Dyson purchase and I'm so impressed with the quality I'm trying to snag a TP04 before the warm weather starts
Affective right! At least you took part

We have a Ziglint robot vacuum cleaner. No excuse to let it do it's thing - and no excuse for me not to do its thing......
It’s always the cool thing to say how ace a Henry is and how it’ll change your life. This could be true if you worked on a busy site, or was a cleaner in a factory with offices. At home though, it’s crap and annoying and gets caught on every corner.

Yup

Haha, funny you say that. I just explained how to empty my Dyson stick and it definitely involves the "dust chopstick" to get out the rug fibres.no matter how technologically advanced dyson are you still need a knife to empty it.

These old TDCi lumps responded so well to tuning. My 1.4 TDCi went from 69hp to 100hp - was a night and day difference. That was a specific map by RS Tuning, mind.

Lol
I bought the original GT watch a while back but returned it as you can't export activities to other platforms (e.g Strava) which was important to me. I know its an old model but I imagine the same limitation applies. The screen was superb though.
I eventually went for the Garmin venu instead. Garmin watches are generally better for fitness tracking (if that's what you're into), but the screens on their entire range are rubbish apart from the venu.
It does have NFC but that doesn't interest me.

Just seeing the humour in a situation where randomshenans thought it was for a Ferrari or something.Needed to do that did you?
I've had the Mondeo from new (its a Ti if that helps) it still works perfectly well, 124k miles (original clutch) so give me one reason to splash £20K+ (which I have) on a new car?
[edit]
Just to add, I'm at the age where the car is mostly to get from A to B and less about speed & have a Fireblade should I feel the need to outrun virtually any car you may have.
I would never judge someone's car choice as I myself wish I spent less on them in favour of other things.
