Damn, that's annoying. It's a bright, sunny day & I've been taking photos of interesting sheds on country roads with the iPhone. Back home, viewing them on the Mac, there's a blur/smear on the end of each pic. Why? Because the lens protector part of the Lifeproof case I keep the phone in has a smudge on it. All the photos will have to be done again. At least the iPhone has recorded the location of each one, so I can go back with the Nikon D5100 DSLR.

Some folk are just so thick. The local carwash offers tyre/engine clean, low-pressure prewash, high-pressure soap, suds brush, foaming conditioner/polish, high-pressure hot wax, high-pressure rinse & low-pressure mist rinse. The foaming conditioner is supposed to go on painted surfaces only after wash & rinse processes.

So this daft woman enters the wash bay in a clean dry car & proceeds to spray the foaming conditioner on every surface without dampening them. Glass, paint, plastic, all done. Then she grabs the suds brush (with no soap running through it) and spreads the foamy polish with the slightly damp brush. Hello scratched paintwork, dopey!
Each cleaning feature has words & pictures of the processes on a big placard beside the control panel. No excuses for not knowing how to use them. But this daft cow goes in and essentially deliberately scratches her paintwork thru ignorance.
I stopped watching at this point as another bay had become free for me to give my dusty car a quick clean.

Porridge in various forms is good stuff. I'll admit to being rather partial to highland oatcakes & they're not much more than dried porridge

Interesting choice

Followed a PopSci link from Twitter. As expected, it went to the PopSci Australia website which didn't have that article. I hate shit like that. So I copied the URL & pasted it into the Opera browser with VPN activated.

Problem solved.

Q: Three men in a boat with four cigarettes but no matches or other ignition sources. What to do?

A: Easy. Throw one cigarette overboard. The whole boat becomes a cigarette lighter.

I get that happening on the Mac. I use Epichrome in association with Chrome browser to make Cappuccino into a site-specific browser. Remembering to definitely click in the reply window is the trick, but it's likely harder on iOS.

Sometimes I'm in the mood for a light sweet fruity wine and I've found an interesting rose style made from moscato & cienna grapes. It's seriously fruity and a shade drier than regular moscato wines but is still quite sweet. The low alcohol content is a nice aside, it's 7% ABV.
