Boiler pressure was going up ever so slightly every day.
Asked ChatGPT.
Told me to disconnect the filling loop and see if it stops.
It did.
Bought a new service valve. £55.
Fitted it. Back to normal.
Watch out plumbers, AI will stop you from charging £200 call out fee 😂
People always ask me why would I move to the UK from France?
I don't think I've got to answer this anymore after yesterday.
Videos I'm seeing on my timeline are heartbreaking.
Such a beautiful country ruined.
Ruined by what?
By years and years of low funding of the public services.
Years and years of questionable immigration laws, where communities are starting to get bigger and bigger, and are not integrated at all.
There's thousands of people who couldn't work yesterday. They couldn't go to work. Their shops have been ransacked.
The government is not protecting people who wants to GO TO WORK.
And you know what makes me want to cry my eyes out right now?
It's about to happen here. We're on the same path. I see things in the UK I've seen 20 years ago. 15 years ago. 10 years ago.
It's coming. And we're in a terrible position for this to happen.
Brace yourselves.
People are really confused by this.
It's all about doing it legally.
I'm a legal immigrant in the UK.
The people coming in on dinghys are not. They don't have any paperwork.
They don't come to England for the weather. Wake up.
Today I learnt the hard way that Greenwich is pronounced Grenitch.
Been a while since I made a fool of myself.
Me on Thursday to the gaffer : Can we have a review of my day rate in the near future?
My boss :" Will have a chat on Friday 👍"
Me Friday :
My white flag and I would go to war for the UK.
Brits are fannies.

Vous savez ce qu'on dit...
A 20 ans si on est pas de gauche c'est qu'on a pas de cœur.
A 40 ans si on est toujours de gauche c'est qu'on à pas de tête.
J’ai exactement eu le même cheminement intellectuel que Louise.
Au Lycée, j’étais de gauche par naïveté : "la guerre et la pauvreté, c’est pas gentil ; il faut donc taxer les milliardaires".
J’arrive à la fac. Je vois tous ces crasseux. Je suis mal à l’aise. Mais, je reste encore un peu idéaliste. Je vois les 1ers blocages, je vois des étudiants issus du peuple, qui bossent pour financer leurs études supplier, pleurer en AG et supplier de lever le blocage. Ça me bouleverse.
Après, je constate que la fac est un champ de ruines : des tags, de la merde dans les couloirs, des canettes de bière partout, des restes de joints.
Je me dis : "si c’est ça la gauche, ce n’est pas possible". Je suis perdu, parce que je pense aussi que la droite est méchante, parce que j’étaus conditionné.
Puis, les étudiants hostiles au blocage se sont regroupés. Je les ai rejoints. Il y avait de tout : des maurassiens, des UMP, des libertariens, des nationalistes divers. En discutant avec eux, je découvre des gens intelligents et cultivés. C’était des gens ouverts aux antipodes du sectarisme gauchiste. Même les vrais "fascistes" que j’ai fréquentés étaient moins "fachos" que les antifas. Je me mets à lire des auteurs qu’ils me conseillent. Ça allait de Joseph de Maistre, le contre-révolutionnaire, à Ayn Rand la libertarienne, en passant par Barrès, Léon Daudet, Tocqueville, etc..
Et là, c’est le déclic. Cette pensée de droite, tant carricaturée, devenait la voix de la raison.
Dog walker just rang. Price up an extra £2.
Up to £17 now.
Sound, I'll walk him when I get home from work, see ya.
Football fans are against the red cartel apparently, and are made up Manchester City won.
Arsenal : 1 league title in 22 years.
Man United : 1 in 13 years.
Liverpool : 2 in 36 years
MANCHESTER CITY : 8 titles in the last 15 years.
But the red cartel is ruining the league hey 😂
Man City have ruined the metrics.
Yes the big clubs spend 100+ on an average player nowadays.
But that's all down to Man City who started the trend and completely changed the market, for the worst.
The Premier League and VAR have literally ruined the game.
I probably spend around £1200 a year to go and watch @LFC.
Yes I could invest the money instead.
But the emotions that football provides me with are priceless and unique.
I do hope we beat City for obvious reasons.
This game today is not just about football.
It's much more than that.
But the NHS is great and we shouldn't touch it 😂
14 months this man has been waiting, 14 MONTHS!!!
Just applied for a 0% credit card with @santanderuk.
They now ask me to go into a branch to prove my ID.
It's 2026. I should be able to do that on my phone!
Got to do better @santanderuk, this could put customers off.
It would have if the hard search wasn't showing on my credit report.
I've been told we over paid for our house in 2021, was 255k for a 4 bed semi.
It's now valued at 300k+.
Don't be scared to enter the market.
Get on the ladder as soon as you can. It might go down short term.
But historically it goes up and up and up.
If this happens without a referendum, what does it tell you about democracy?
🚨BREAKING: MPs will debate on Monday whether the UK should rejoin the EU
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
MPs will debate a public petition calling for the UK to rejoin the EU in Westminster Hall on Monday, not government policy or whether the country should rejoin. Westminster Hall debates do not result in votes or binding decisions.

Since my last post was misunderstood by many people who can't see past their nose..
Argument why the NHS is something this country HAS TO keep?
Look at the figures.
It is not sustainable and never will be. It is genuinely broken.
