It's Christmas. Hope everyone is doing what they want with who they want. I'm with the family, have new led lights off various kinds. Nice day. Gonna cook dinner in a little while. Folks can't really manage it any more.

I don't have the money to buy the LED strips for the frosted top-windows at the moment, but I am the kind of person who has 5m of LED strips just lying around awaiting a use. Which is coincidentally exactly the length the space around the dresser-mirrors/window-shutters need. Looks quite pretty. #diy #wled #ledStrip

So my car has been complaining I should put some exhaust emissions neutralizing fluid in it. A thing they call AdBlue I believe. Bought a big 10l drum of the stuff ready to fill up. But when I look at where I expect to find the hole for filling it, I just find a capped off tube and a warning sticker "See the GM Citreon Berlingo Blaze manual" for the adblue refilling hole. Only user manual I have is the one telling me to expect it there. The chair was converted for wheelchair access at some point in its life. I think they are referring to the wheelchair-adaption manual, which the seller did not give me. 🤔 Have been looking around the car as much as I can for a couple of hours this morning to no avail. Where have they hidden this hole to fill up adblue? Maybe it's under the engine or something now and you have to put the thing on stilts to find it? 🤷 Asked my mechanic about it and he says to bring it in on Monday. Gonna be a pain if I have to rip up the floorboards or something every year to refill that. #mechanic #car #diesel

I am quite keen to watch The War Between The Land And The Sea on iplayer. But we need to consider tactics. Will the folks sit and watch it with me at Xmas? If they would that'd perhaps be better than whatever drivel quiz shows and police car chase stuff they normally make me watch. If they won't I'll be be postponing it three weeks for no reason. 🤔 Might be nice to watch it in the new bedroom but that probably won't have a bed or a chair until the new year. #watching #doctorWho #onlyNotDoctorWho #tv
