I'm not quite sure what full sandspider means, and I'm a bit afraid to ask!

Or do you just mean when I failed the ducker? Being synonymous with wordle failure is not the arbtalk fame I wanted!

Mary Elizabeth Frye:

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry;
I am not there. I did not die.

Yep, I do that. Even though it doesn't matter at all!

Did it in a rush and failed the ****************er!

Yeah, I can still play. I am a bit curious to know how long my streak is, and how many guesses it takes me on average. (I've got competitive with a friend!) But probably not bothered enough to sign up.

It’s just asked me to create an account and/or sign in after playing this morning - never had that before but my stats have apparently gone. I assumed it somehow tracked me via my phone as always play on the same device. Anyone else had similar? 

Yep, me too. They seem to be rolling it out. I refuse to sign up!

I've made jerky in a dehydrator. I made about 250g worth (unmarinaded weight) which filled one shelf of the dehydrator. My dehydrator has 6 (or possibly 8 ) shelves, so could do a fair amount at once. It was really nice jerky, I should make it again...

Its annoying. I don't want yet another Internet login, but I do slightly want to know how long my streak is

Anybody else get forced to login to see their long term stats now?

My start word is vulva. Lot of words have two vs in. Vulva, for instance.

Slightly annoyed by that, but just one guess of many, could've been a 3!

You can get pir triggered cat squirters that hook up to a hosepipe. Work well in my experience  and very satisfying! But you have to move them or the cats get used to their locations and avoid them.

Chuck pickled onions in instead of tomato, delish.

Finally a bit of warm sun this afternoon. Did a bit of log splitting and turned the path into a quagmire, still soaking under foot. Ho hum.

I'm guessing that's a piss take, but I can't be sure! And I don't want to Google huanghunglow!

That's neat and compact. Can't read the make?

I now worry about getting ferrex stuff from Aldi, not that I would knock it, my 40V 4" grinder has been a game changer for cutting hydraulic hoses and wire rope cleanly in the field. The problem is they sold the batteries too cheap, people bought them just to strip them of their cells such that spares are no longer available. I have the grinder, impact driver, drill and tyre pump with only three batteries to go between them and nearly got stuffed when the charger broke. I managed to get one off ebay from a bloke who bought surplus stock of chargers when Aldi bailed  out.

 

Now I'm thinking I will buy milwaukee stuff; has anyone tried their M18 chainsaws?

Usually aldi have the same special buys on every 6 or 12 months, so I'm hoping the ferrex kit will come round again. Can never have too many batteries, and they're going for silly money on ebay. I'm annoyed that aldi have stopped offering delivery on special buys, I don't want to have to go to an aldi shop and hope I can find what I want...

My Brampton is 8kw nominal, though possibly 12kw max. It certainly pumps the heat out.
