The week that started with ....

  • A BANG !

    • Some installation in the southern art of the country sent BANG with some fireworks which puts the TOP managements panties in a knot
    • everyone was like a headless chicken, spewing out instructions which borders close to be considered brainless
    • Instruction were given for the investigation to be conducted as quickly & thorough as possible ( note that those two would never come hand in hand)
    • so off to the south I went, working & cracking my head & I think I managed to figure out the cause of it
    • Now writing an endless report on how this could be affected

  • A SPLASH!
    • Was out and about during the weekend to do all those impending DIY repairs around the house and part of it was replacing a faulty faucet in the bathroom
    • got a new hose for it, hence did the necessary replacement etc and it was all fine and dandy
    • until Monday when an SOS was issued that the replacement gave way.. so much for cheap products from China
    • after returning form my trip down south, I repaired the whole thing , which wasn't easy & almost drenched me
  • BLINKING!
    • all those above happened during the first two days of the week and thinking by some cruel twist of fate is not enough, my car seems to be giving me problems
    • The alarm would turn on by itself and couldn't be reset with the normal mean
    • so off to Amiaq's I went to diagnose and troubleshoot the problem, which ended up at 2 am but with no possible solution found
    • Now have to manually lock the car whilst waiting for the appointment to uses the official diagnostic software from MB, which leave me wondering how much its going to hit me ($$$$$$$$$)
These events all happened during the week leading to my birthday & didn't leave me in the mood to celebrate .....
