WHAT??? How can they do that when you are so busy and needed all the time.
Maybe you will be offered a very good severance package and as you are so fed up with them maybe not such a bad thing.

Evening

It appears I will be made redundant soon, well I hope they know what what they are doing, of course they are clueless as senior management usually are, they chop and change more than Starmer does, incompetent lot can go forth and multiply

We have sunshine now but still only 11 degrees.
I need to get out and get some fresh air today and a decent walk.

[rovi70] 14/10/2024 11:28

14 degrees no wind but cloudy sort of one of those dull miserable days. But hot coffee with amaretto brings a smile.

Frost this morning and c c c cold.

That pun was mint! Oh dear - I will get my coat.


On another note, today I fixed my Makita drill. Not so much fixed but improved it to take out some of the chuck back and forth movement when not in hammer mode.
It was perfect after. However when I changed to low speed it went bang and I broke a ring gear in the gearbox. It was a tiny ball bearing got in there so looks like I messed up. However cannot fathom out how the small ball bearing got in there. Maybe t has been trapped in grease in there since new!

New gearbox £50+ New drill without battery or charger (later version of same model) £25 on Amazon. Bit of a no brainer.

I can repair the old drill to make it single speed on the fast setting, and order what may be the right gear from China for about £6.50 but will take an age to get here....and may not fit.

Anyway, new drill bare bones ordered, and I will try and repair the old one.

I was in my garden this morning and the neighbour peered over the fence and said. "What are you doing?""I'm putting all my plants in alphabetical order" I said.She replied "Really? I don't know how you find the time!""Oh that's easy" I said, "Its right next to the sage."

Morning

I don't qualify for COVID jabs but would have it if offered, the sun has come out now I've tumble dried my washing

[rovi70] 12/10/2024 12:18

Left arm flu. Right arm Covid jab this morning so it's reading tv and some computer work. About 15 degrees and little if any wind in south facing garden. Expecting rain so turn up heating and hot soup is the answer me thinks.

[jonjonck] 12/10/2024 12:11

.....I am wanting to but most I can think off is outside.
I will find something.....

Artnoon

Cold and rain here but I got out for an early walk before it started, are you fixing anything today?

[jonjonck] 12/10/2024 08:07

Good Morning.
Overcast and cold this morning. Hopefully warm up later.

[2gekko] 11/10/2024 09:29

Yes it does indeed, enjoy the trip out

[jonjonck] 11/10/2024 07:01

At least it gets me out of the house.

Morning

I'm glad it's Friday but am so behind with work nonsense, so I guess it's shopping for your good self and Mrs Jonck

[jonjonck] 11/10/2024 06:05

glasses smashed as well - must have been some spectacle.

LOL your post and Good Morning.
I cannot believe it is Friday again already. This week has flown by and I have achieved very little.

[2gekko] 10/10/2024 17:20

It was his tab, you see rovi and I had a slap up meal and it was my fault, I thought it was put on your tab as I knew you would not mind, well not with he coffee machine being missing again but it went on gates tab, it was a shocking scene, tables turned over, food everywhere, glasses smashed

And that was before gates turned up

Shares Ideas.... (Tips?)

In my opinion Alphawave (AWE) stands out as an incredible strong buy opportunity, with a clear path to growth despite broader market challenges. The company recently adjusted its full-year guidance, but the 6% reduction is a small dip considering the turbulent macroeconomic backdrop. What's far more important is the momentum behind Alphawave's strategic moves, particularly its game-changing collaboration with Arm. This partnership is a massive catalyst that will transform Alphawave’s market position in high-speed connectivity and semiconductor IP, driving innovation and sales across key markets such as AI, data centers, and advanced computing.

Arm, one of the most prominent names in semiconductor architecture, brings a powerhouse ecosystem and cutting-edge design capabilities to the table. By partnering with Arm, Alphawave positions itself at the core of next-gen tech infrastructures, becoming indispensable to customers that require faster, more efficient data processing. This synergy is expected to result in a major uptick in both licensing revenue and long-term design wins.

Additionally, despite the slight reduction in guidance, the company's overall trajectory remains solid, with its innovative product line driving sustained demand. As industries move towards AI, 5G and 6G, and cloud computing, Alphawave’s IP solutions are increasingly critical. Its ability to help companies achieve lower latency, faster data transfer, and better power efficiency means that it is well-positioned to capture a larger market share in these rapidly expanding sectors.

Now, as the collaboration with Arm ramps up, expect a significant boost to Alphawave’s visibility, customer base, and revenue streams. With shares still undervalued relative to its potential, this is the time to invest in a company that’s poised to ride the next big wave in semiconductor innovation.

With 6G on the horizon and Alphawave in collaboration with Arm, AWE is nailed on to benefit from this.
Defence requirements for IP such as AWE's is further affirmation its on the cusp of greater things.

Where is Gates when you need him... he is a power house at keeping the puns going.

Actually good point, not seen gates for a while. Did one of you upset him over the summer?

[jonjonck] 10/10/2024 13:15

I will also get my coat so I am well insulated.

[jonjonck] 10/10/2024 13:14

Stuck in your head for ever - you must have used Power Bond Adhesive.

[rovi70] 09/10/2024 23:43

Just going to bed 00.40 hrs. Just just just thinking My name is bond. Earth bond. lol that is so so bad. But it is now etched on my brain.
