What made your day a crap one??

[dodgy]

Yes, yes I am.

My name’s Graeme and I’m full of shit.

Way to embrace and celebrate your shit comings!

How disappointing and I'm sorry to hear. Chin up. There may be another angle or another avenue ... keep searching.

Im going to try my luck at applying to train to become a social worker (might regret that though)

Do you need to stay in your current location Karl? Maybe relocating to a different part of the UK to pursue what you want to do would give you a new lease of life?

I appreciate that's not an option if you've got dependants.

Hmm...Id love to relocate to Northumberland

I bought a pack of medjool dates to make me feel better. Enjoying them with a pint of Guinness Zero and a cat to stroke.

(I clicked like because of this bit)

It's not the worst thing to happen in the world, but my tv went this afternoon. It's one before the smart tv revolution took over so maybe around 7 years old?

I need to find a suitable replacement now!

If you're ok with a soldering iron, take the back off. It might be a cheap and easy capacitor replacement.
Have saved a few tv's myself. The components are cheap and easy to spot the duds by they will be either swollen or leaking.

Check the fuse if it's just dead.

All tv's these days have a light on front so I would assume anyone would check that first, good point though.
Just like" my car's broke down. Ok have you run out of petrol"

I think a woman told me those same words once.

Shit happens. I know ‘cos I seem to attract disaster. I am……The Shit Magnet!

I feel your pain @gile but as I said in our chat, I’m happy to wait and am not the least bit disgruntled. You do great work but you are human after all. Wait. You are aren’t you? Human, I mean.

That's after the shit hit's it, just put it on for the full effect.
