I have Tay’s instructions, but the actual code file is no longer available online. He may still have it.

Any Spinsters who see this, go and download your follows, do a backup if you want/can. Bottom of Settings/Preferences depending on IDK what.
Spinster.club hopefully soon. *When* it is up, if problems email admin@ there.
On desktop, go to settings at the left. On mobile, click user pic top left then preferences, then scroll down and:
It should download a CSV. I struggled to do it on mobile, had to switch to desktop.

Adverts have never appealed to me, but they are so bloody weird now that I can’t see them appealing to anyone….

> Ed Miliband will ban the sale of underfloor heating systems deemed to be using too much power in his latest net zero drive.
> The Energy Secretary has also set his sights on electric towel rails, gas fires and storage heaters, with plans for new market controls designed to cut carbon emissions.
> He wants to bring in new energy efficiency requirements that will result in more than a third of so-called “space heating systems” becoming illegal to sell.
> New rules will make temperature controls mandatory, while other regulations will mean some towel rails will only be allowed to operate for six hours a day.
> It will push consumers to more costly modern alternatives that use smart functions to help limit energy use, such as restricting heating to certain times of day, or cutting a heating system off completely, for instance when there is a draught that would make it inefficient to continue running.
Or, indeed, when there is a power shortage coming….

Tbf, it takes about five minutes to cut my hair, you’d need to look at their dry cut rates for a real comparison (I wash it before I go in and leave with it wet, and it’s just a straight across trim of the ends).
When I used to have a cut-and-blow (still just a straight trim) in London 20 years ago, it was £50-60.

I love how they’ve tried to make it cheerful with the little flowers.

Does rather depend on finding a good supply of cottage-shaped rocks….

Ah, I see.
Now I have a feel (looking not being an option ;), there is some sort of raised line along the bottom of the lens, which I guess is your fishing line.

Woah, so my glasses are illegal in the US?
(Surprisingly hard to take an in-focus shot when not wearing them….)
