Temperature, just now, by my computer is 0 degrees C (freezing point). My I/O thermometer says 0.5 which is almost 33 F. Otherwise, we had forecasts of snow, ice pellets, freezing rain, individually or all at once.
I'm laying a siding with my last pieces of Rapido's "Bendy Track". Looks nice, but it has scale spike heads and picking it up the wrong way pulls the rail out of its fixings. It's also a different code from my other tracks (code 83 vs 100 or 70). It works with Peco code 70 plastic joiners, but not the metal ones. It doesn't like the 100/70 compromise joiners, so the sequence is 100 - 70 - 83. It does come with a packet of 4 code 83 joiners per yard length.
Yesterday we fastened the TV to the wall. We'd always considered wall mounting a bit excessive, but the new cat was showing signs of wanting to climb it, so we felt it needed bracing. (like Mr Redneck's garage) I managed it with only one big mistake -- couldn't take off the peg below the TV so had to remount things one set of holes higher. It was a bit reluctant to come off the mount with only 2 of us lifting and no-one to unlatch it.
