MY CINEMA PROJECT

Yes, yes, the big screen is finally done.
2.5m x 1.5m ----  widescreen :D
Tonight we will watch the football final on it.
Garden Cinema.
Buuuhahahaaa!



(we did not watch the game because it was too sunny outside, 
but later at 10pm we watched a movie with popcorn :)

Great result, however the screen could be double size :D

INVESTIGATING A THEFT

Some idiot stole the front light from my bicycle. But not only the light, also the piece for fitting it on the handle bar. And for that the thief had to use a screwdriver. So I managed to get a chance to look at the CCTV camera and it seems that we found the guy who did it. I asked for a copy of the recording and I hope I will get it next week. I want to catch that guy.

I got the projector yesterday. Now I have a cinema in my bedroom :)) It's sooo good. Giant screen on the wall. Just have to buy popcorn.

BIG CHALLENGE - SCOOTER REPAIR

I had a hard time this weekend trying to fix the brake pipe for our scooter. Still not finished. Dirty oil stuck under my fingernails. I have to find out tomorrow if a seller on ebay has a similar pipe to what I need.

I was also gardening on Saturday. Cutting grass, weeding, making the place nicer. The strawberries are growing again.

The floor laying course continues. In 3 days I learned a lot. But is a bit too fast and too much new information to process. Good thing is that I really like it.

I got lucky with a projector on ebay. I was random checking during break and I found a barely used projector with 30 min left of bidding. 
I won :D
This week it should arrive.
Than I will make home cinema in the bedroom :))

I refreshed the PHOTO page and the FOOD page.
And the SCOOTER page too.
Have a look.

My next project will be something for the wall, holding the projector. I am also thinking to fix the wall in the garden. Level it and paint it white. On a warm summer night we can watch movies there with the projector. And football :)

Wooowww! I just saw how big the screen can be. Covering half of the garden. Like in a real cinema! Tomorrow I go get a cable so i can try with the laptop. If the picture will be sharp enough than it's gonna be a great summer :D

LEARNING SOMETHING EVERY DAY

Starting a 12 week course for floor-laying. 
Going for NVQ Lvl-2 certificate.

Doing also the online Cisco Networking and Webdesign courses.
Not getting bored for sure.

Have to fix scooter again. The brake fluid is leaking and have to change the whole rear brake pipe. Checked on eBay, ... nothing.
So I'm going to remove it and see if I could "macgyver" the problem.

Just came home from a job interview which was actually a training how to be prepared and how to make the good impression on an interview. Was very helpful doing it in real situation, better than researching on the internet.

Weather sucks again in London. Hope that the last year will not repeat itself = 2 hot weeks in the summer, the rest was crap.

Will soon redesign the page, it has to look more pro and more serious. Depends how much time I will have.

PORTABLE LAPTOP DESK - 2

Hi,

I built another small desk for our new laptop.
Looks almost like the first I made but this one is not from old leftover materials.
Descriptions, details and photos on the 'Fix it' page.
