As per my monthly Tweet:
Fridge was running at 15C on full because of the heat so I *modified* it.
Now it's at -8C and everything is frozen.
Is that a success or a fail..?

There's a drip tray under the ice box, which I removed. I also removed the door from the icebox. Since the stat and most of the cooling fins are in the icebox, the entire fridge is now attempting to be a freezer...

That's not a fridge, it's a very large case for an overclocked PC

I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir, but be wary of tinned fizzy pop then (unlike my workplace)...

I just discovered frozen yoghurt and frozen milk, despite turning it down to half power

Yeah we had to throw a pint out that had also been splattered with Pepsi lol. Needless to say, the Coke was fine. And seriously chilled

Carpet fitters fail. They've just cut through a sensor cable and set the alarm off. They'll have to fix it before I can reset the tamper warning.

Received my email today... Raspberry Pi can be ordered. Tried it on the mobile and... it didn't bloody work. I reported it and have just received a reply. I'll try again later and let you know how I get on. Edit to add: I'm on the main PC so can add more details. I was using the mobile to order the Pi, but the telephone number box didn't allow me to enter any information, even though it was mandatory. I tried on the laptop but I got an invalid code message, because I'd already used the activation code they emailed me... I was advised in the reply to the email I sent them to leave it an hour and try again. I did, on the main PC, and now I haz Pi... at least I will when they dispatch it, which will be in about 6 weeks... Turns out to be a fail on the website, but a happy ending for me.

Asda's tragic 10pm online groceries cut-off (and you can't just outright cancel the order), and the fact that I forgot all about it after thinking about it all day in work
