Repairium at Leeds Festival

We went to Leeds Festival!  It was definitely an interesting experience to be at the Repairium at Leeds Festival.  The Farmyard Party definitely prepared for the Leeds Festival.

Lidl Oranges

Note to self, never to buy Lidl Oranges again.  If they are cheaper, but always 25% rotten, they are not cheaper afterall.

Window Manifestations

Window manifestations, such a big word for decals and window films...

DC Jack Replacement

We were looking at a two years old window vac, and it refused to charge.  After some investigation, I concluded it was the charging jack.  After proving my diagnosis, I harvested a old DC jack from an old clock and fitted it into the window vacuum.  It is charging, that will do.

Haribo Factory Shop

I stopped by Haribo shop, and it is now mostly the same price to their shops in outlets.  So I just picked up one tub.

Alton Towers in Summer

We thought it would make the difference that we went to Alton Towers on a Monday.  It probably was a tiny bit better.  We queue 20 minutes to get parked, then we went straight to the Congo Rapids, what we went for.  Followed by a few other rides and the Sky Rides were also running, which was good.  We squeezed in a pinball whizzer and Battle Galleons.  I was happy we did what we went for and avoid most of the queuing.
