Our phone's switchover to the new Router-based phone line "should" be happening at some point today.
I also have to update Mum's iPhone/iPad to iOS17, at some point, too.
I think that's going to be the theme of today. Updating.

Seems like we're just sitting around, this week.
Not much of anything's happening.
It's almost like Mum's given up. .. But then, realistically, we were pretty much packed and ready to go, three months ago.
There's not really a whole lot more to do!

"Don't go putting insurance on cover as yet ."
Putting Insurance on cover?
Does that even make sense?

I drew a new version of Greenie yesterday, and fed it into the LoRA training for Stable Diffusion.
And this morning I went back to the old one.

The new JSE commands are now live, though most of them do cause a heck of a lot of slowdown, so use sparingly!!

I added a couple of nice new commands in GotoJSE, yesterday, but haven't uploaded them yet.
Maybe later today, you might be able to play with them..?

Another weekend, and even less going on.
On the plus-side, we got contracts to sign for the bungalow, which is nice.

Apparently the indemnity insurance for the "Absent Freeholder" (who isn't absent if the council are right, but solicitors...) will take about six weeks to finalise.

Haven't heard a peep from the Solicitor this week.

iPad, iPhone and MacBook are all "Hey, let's update!!" this morning.
The Mac and iPad are both on the beta path, so are getting the most recent update, but what's the iPhone doing?!
Just a purely random update for no reason?

The chatty chat with the Estate Agent went reasonably well, yesterday.

Hello?
Is anybody there?
No.. No they aren't.. Because Virgin Media's Landline network has gone super wonky!

As is the norm, the weekend's gone quiet, and nothing's happening.

One thing that's been holding us up, over the past THREE MONTHS has been "Who's the Freeholder".
And, the further we delve into that, the more complicated it's getting.
Down the rabbit hole we go!
Weeeee!!

The council still haven't gotten back to me after yesterday's phone call.
If I don't hear anything by about 3pm, today, I'll be ringing them up to try and get some kind of answer as to what's going on.
Can't have this kerfuffle holding everything up.

Today I have to phone the council up, again.
To get the freeholder's name, again.
And get it in writing this time, so the Solicitor doesn't spend ANOTHER MONTH trying to figure out something that took me 10 minutes on the phone to find out.

Today is SoCoder's 17th birthday. It's kinda scary to think about that, if I'm honest.
17 years of coding, bug-fixes and general madness.

More waiting, today.
Nothing much has happened over the weekend, though we did hear from the Bungalow Estate Agent about how frustrated the Bungalow owner's getting with our solicitor.

Over the weekend I stupidly decided to buy another domain name, and have started to integrate all the JNKsg tools into a marginally neater package.

I got to see the bungalow, yesterday! Hurray!!

Today's the day that Mum and Uncle head to the bungalow, to measure for curtains, and other such stuff.

Had a user suggest, yesterday, that this whole site is a bit of a mess, and it's hard to find anything.
*shrugs*

Woke up to the noise of potholes being filled on the road outside. Oh the joys of being woken up so ludicrously early.
At half nine.
Lazy Jay..

*shrugs*
We've sent off a bunch more paperwork and ID to the Solicitor, and apparently they're still trying to reconcile the "Shared Ownership" stuff, but as far as we can tell, everything now should be progressing well enough.

Spent an awfully long time staring at the budget spreadsheet yesterday.

Mum's planning to get over to the bungalow at some point in the next few days.
She'll be ringing up the Estate Agents and asking for a measurement day, where her and Uncle will get to head up, get access to the property, and do all the measuring she can possibly think of.

Had a crazy idea for a game at 4am, this morning, and then tried to get back to sleep for several hours afterwards.
.. At least the cat was happy that I was awake.
