You attend . Use your 3 minutes wisely ( assuming that’s still the rule ) Your architect does the technical talk you do the “ heart felt “ talk

SWMBO spotted this . Might be custom made . Multiple lights behind what almost looks like a radiator . Industrial style . Can’t find anything online . Not sure what you would call it ….

I understand your pain / enjoyment. At the end of a self build day I find drinking wine and eating steak solve all my issues … -
Nope . Done that . It decides to update at some point when it wants . As it’s running headless I don’t check it regularly for when it wants to update / screw things up . After an update some ha things don’t work without manual input . It’s not like it updates / reboots and all is good . Just wish it could email me or similar before an update ….

Eating my homemade chicken Ceylon and the music streamer stops - which has never happened. Reboot router , switches , ha hub . (expletive deleted)ing windows decides to do an update . Wft ! Mission critical it is ! . Landing a plane , removing uranium rods from reactor , my HA ! . You can’t just (expletive deleted) everything because bill gates is a (expletive deleted) .

Mate don’t sweat it . 20k ‘over’ isn’t the end of the world . Whilst you might not want a loan or use your Credit card as the great Mandy says “ This is the way “ -
Before you all bitch … 300 centres because plasterboard is only 9.5mm . Short boards as I can’t get full boards down my temporary staircase . So noggins at joins . Timbers deliberately left visible above ceiling line so I can a) fix any ha / electrics to them b) no need to “ hunt the timber “ when I need a wall fixing . So there !
