Missing Transaction
I was browsing my bank statements and I could not find a large transaction. Then the paper statement turned up, and they do not match! How annoying!!

Gig Economy
I have dabbled it on Opendesk, I have been on Houston's Uber and used it once on Airbnb. I am still disagreeing with them, I will call it a quit on them all.

Faulty Multimeter
I have been using an old cheap multi-meter since 2010. It has been in the rain, it has been abused, but it was giving plausible readings, so I am still using it. When I was using it to measure the coil, then it was clear it was not zero-ing. I thought it was the leads, and it turned out, it is the meter. I am still debating if I should throw it.

GSXR SRAD Ignition Coils
I learnt from my maintenance class that the ignition coils in motorcyle is a low voltage, individual coil, ie stick coil and the misfiring maybe related to them.
So I tool them out to measure their resistances. The primary resistance should be 0.07-0.11 ohms and
the secondary should be 4.5-6.9 K-ohms. The readings changed a lot when I measured them hot and cold. Then the readings when cold was still a bit out, then I realise my shitty multimeter is not very accurate and my shitty leads are giving a high initial resistance readings. So I concluded the readings were fine.
Then I start looking for signs of damage and overheating. The contacts were clean, but there is slight discolouration on the shank. So I decided to replace them, lets hope for the best.

Chatsworth Farm Shop
We took the opportunity to visit the Chatsworth Farm Shop. We thought parking maybe a problem so we parked at Calver and walked to Chatsworth Farm Shop.
The walk was okay, I slipped once on the wet grass.
I think the farm shop is a little over-rated, I will even go as far saying Cannon Hall's was better. On our way back, Sarah pointed out everything with the Chatsworth colours in all the villages.

Paddy in YHA
We have used Paddy in B&B before and it worked. We were so happy that Paddy worked on the YHA cloud! All caught up with the TV programmes!
