Broken Stuff
Yesterday at work we got a new coffee machine. It makes good coffee (even though I don't usually drink coffee) and it makes excellent hot chocolate. The basic coffee is free and the fancy coffee & chocolate is 50c a cup, a very good deal in my opinion. This morning Captain Blood spent some time trawling peoples blogs to see what they thought of the coffee machine, much to his disappointment nobody had written anything about it. At morning tea time after about half a dozen people had made coffee the machine decided to break down. Well it didn't actually break but it decided that the waste-basket (it grinds it's own beans and so needs somewhere to dump the non-coffee-making part) was full and it wasn't going to make more coffee until it got emptied. Chaos soon ensued. Eventually after everybody had drifted off Major Feltch Monkey worked out what was wrong, like any good electronic machine it just wanted all it's doors opened and closed again.
This afternoon I was trying to update the list of Authorised Repair Agents over at Hulks Garage and I managed to make a complete mess of the page. This evening I decided that I would make a nice table in word, save it as an HTML file and then upload it to the garage, and it broke. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get it to see the pictures once I uploaded it to the GooglePages site, so I gave up trying, went back and argued some more with the page editor. The Authorised Repair Agents list is now fixed and all of the agents should be listed. The front page is still a bit of a mess but I haven't quite decided what to do with it. I'm also still getting the hang of the page editor.
Earlier this evening, I went to a mate’s garage to take some tires off the old Mazda rims. (I had to put new wheels on the Mad Mazda in order to get a warrant last week) When we fired up the tire machine it didn't do anything. Problem with the compressed air. So we checked that it was all plugged in, and it was. Bother! Then we realised that there was no compressed air anywhere in the workshop. Big Bother! So we went and had a look at the compressor, which wasn't compressing. Really Big Bother!
