Poxy oven cleaning company. Idiots. When your oven is at eye level it’s hard not to notice.

Wall mounted the Lenovo Q27h:
Annoyingly my super slim was 3cm too slim. Had to build a spacer out of what I had nearby.
Junk thrown behind it is a USB hub and Microsoft SideWinder mouse charger (thing must be over a decade old now and still going strong!).

Bought a non-runner Atco cylinder mower today locally for £50. Non-runner is now a runner! Carburettor needles were completely clogged solid. Cleaned out and fired right up. Will give it a try on the grass if it's dry tomorrow.
Yay!
Going to start saving to pay someone else next time, lol

For some strange reason, our bathroom door opens out into the hallway. So I finally got round to removing it, stripping the frame and remounting it to open inwards. It actually closes perfectly now too, so I'm pretty pleased.
