Well, switch it back on then. But maybe you might need to change the bulb or if the switch is rusty, give it some welly ;)
 
Latest thought for my day is .......I'm amused!

Ha! Every now and then I see a little message 'This message is hidden' lol.....somone earned the distinction of being the first on my ignore list which funny enough came about not long after I posted my previous thought for the day!.....this person (no names mentioned) had posted a few argumentative comments and was a new poster I hadn't particularly noticed before....well done.....your comments were indicative of things to come so you earned the distinction of 1st name on my list lol!......(ignorerant over!)

....well not quite.....pity I can't ignore quotes that are posted of this persons comments by other people lol!!
 
The council are changing the light at the end of the tunnel to a solar powered LED version to comply with their Eco performance scheme.

It will, however, take months to do, will require lengthy periods of diversion and cones and cost more than ten times the cost of anyone else doing it.

(but because they didn't plan properly, they are going to install the solar panel inside the tunnel so that vandals can't throw rocks at it)

Will the light ever go on???

I would agree with that. Whenever I realized that it was just "fear" that put me off doing something, I got into the habit of just doing it anyway. After a while, the next new daunting challenge never seemed so scary!

BTW, "Who Dares Wins" always reminds me of my years with the part-time SAS! :ninja:

(and by part-time I mean only when I was dreaming)
