English Curry

I took a friend to have some English Curry.  It was the first time at a curry house, so I explained the typical choices.  So we had fish pakora, onion bhaji, mahkani and butter chicken.  They went down well.  I probably would try another English curry next time.

Solar Eclipse 2026

I only needed to go the an adjacent street to have a clear view to the Sun. I used the phone's aperture to get the projection and tilted it onto the other part of the sensor to capture the image.



The sky wasn't that dark, but the solar output reduction was quite significant, hence the saving session.  So I stayed out for the remaining saving sessions.

Dodgy Charger

I have been travelling with the laptop and the charger is misbehaving.  I really need to look for a spare one before it dies on me.

Royal Armouries Mongolian Horse Show

We went to Royal Armouries' Summer Horse Show.  At last, Sarah get to see some cabbage chopping, for free.

Another Wifi Extender

I got another wifi extender, and this one was "free".  Unlike the Belkin one, this one has a new wifi name, so you have to disconnect from one to connect to another.  This Netgear has an arial, so psycologically, it is better.

Radish Seeds Preparation

I let the bolted radishes to go into seeds, and it is now time to pod them and prep them for next season's planting.  It literally took me 2 hours podding them... I hope the radishes are actually nice...

Computer Says

I went to a garage to get someone to plug into the car to see what was wrong with Fradley.  She needs a sensor perhaps.  Let see how I get on with the warranty claim.
