Fixed.....

Things started off well. Even a cup of phone death next to the work area. That was my level of confidence.


Back up phone ready, just in case it goes horribly wrong.  Not sure if I could work physical buttons any more.  Why did we not realise we were living like animals 2 or 3 years ago!

Brute forced the thing apart and had a look around this wonder of the modern world.


Going well so far, whip that bit out at the bottom and replace it.  Couldn't be easier!  Job done in mere minutes.

Slap it back together and here is the result-


My fishes are swimming happily again, no random buzzing and all is good with the world.

But

If we look at the phone signal at the top....there isn't one.

The phone has since been pulled apart and put together a dozen times to fix.

Still not working


Update: Got new parts and it's now working.  What a pain in the tits that whole episode was.  Don't put your phone in tea.  Just don't.

Phones and Tea

They don't mix.  My beloved Samsung S2 was had a brief dalliance with some tea.  Turns out, actually, the whoring thing spent quite a long time in tea as it got trapped in the "protective" case which let it stew for a while.  Green tea takes a while to stew as does an S2.

From that moment on, it randomly buzzes as it thinks it is getting plugged in for charging.  Not for long!  The part is ordered and hopefully by the end of the week the thing will have been expertly teased apart and lovingly restored.

Or it'll be torn asunder clumsily and the thing will be completely fucked.

I'm excited at how it's going to turn out.  Aren't you?!

I promise pictures.

West End Hotness

Doing a top 5 hotness rating for West End joints. (No, I'm not in any way addicted to hotukdeals.com)

Add heat if you agree:

1- Firebird! Food and booze and they know what to pour when I walk in.  Perhaps that isn't a good thing.

2- Dukes! Asahi on tap.  And closer than Firebird

3- Bar Soba! Great Asian food and Kirin on tap (expensive beer in general however)

4- Ichiban!  Lovely sushi and lunch time deals.  Kirin on tap also.

5- Big Slope!  Sunday Roast.  Enough said. Sagres on tap is very nice too.


Saw some twat in a fur coat and a beard on Byres Road tonight just after and spicy meal at Bar Soba.  What an embarrassment.  I'm guessing lack of personality and tiny cock.  I'm pretty sure I'll never see him in my top 5 bars.

If I do, they will lose heat immediately!

Have some more- !!!!!!
