How can you be sure he's a good grandson :paranoid:

Re: What is new in your little world?

:( My Samsung SMART TV couldn't connect to my home wireless network so I can't access the 'smart hub' and being the old technician I am I took on the challenge to solve it.... No joy :tear: Despite a couple of hours trying everything (except a LAN cable connection) nothing worked.

Did I mention it is wall mounted and 60inch? Some 4 years old too....

I called the Service number, answered in the Philippines. They agreed with my diagnosis and put in a service call to my local repair centre. I have had a Samsung monitor repaired there before, no dramas..

They are going to repair under warranty :up:

The service people called and need to take the big screen away for up to 2 weeks :eek: so it will be a quiet one.

I could get the little telly 12inch (30cm) out of the book case and use that as a monitor and record all I need on the PVR(s) I suppose.... That will work OK..

I went to look at a new car, a Honda HR-V VTi-L Auto. I wasn't sold!

I did watch one of many reviews on YouTube video but couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the luggage area cover :smirk:
Check it out in the below about 1:48

Yes they try and use all sorts of tricks and I've seen a few in the last days. It is the one I don't see that worries me.

I also listed with a couple of car brokers and that is looking a better option but it is only early days.

Anyone ever use a car broker? I'd love to here success or otherwise.

T'is a week or two before I trade my lovely Mercedes A200 in on a new car....

I had a service done on it late January and they suggested I change the battery because it failed their load test. I said don't do it as I am going to trade it in soon... Well soon passed and too soon...

They did say it needed a wheel alignment and auto transmission service too but be fair, am I going to recoup those dollars come trade? I doubt it!

OH, and new front wiper blades :smirk:

Come on now. Genuine parts are marked up at least 150 if not 200% and I am not silly....

Today, I'd just washed and vacuumed the gem, parked in the garage after the obligatory drive around the block to heat it up/dry off the bits I didn't, when I tried to turned the ignition key :(

Yes, you're right. Poor little Benz had a problem.....

I've been a member of the auto repair club 30+ years (Platinum Member - I must be getting old) and they attended promptly and swapped in an out for a new battery. $250 later.......

I hope I don't buy a lemon :rolleyes:

I just ordered all new LED lamps for my bike. I got this bad ass spider eye head lamp (6000 lumens).



and I got a light module that flashes your rear lights to make you more visible when you apply the brakes.

No. LED's don't come factory installed. So if you want them you have to buy them separately.

I like to ride, but not that much.

Maybe I'll go to bike week in Daytona.

I feel like that headlight you bought belongs on a Sports/Japanese bike rather than a Cruiser...

Lots of interest from people who ride cruisers on the Harley Davidson page.
