- a clean mug...
- coffee...
- bins went out...
- Friday is nearly in earshot...
G'Day...
13°/19°C, gray skies, a few spritzer in da morning...
after last night's, partially heavy downpours* still soggy a 78% RH...
(* of course ze GF instantly ran out with a flashlight to inspect my recent "terrace-roof-to-wall-sealing"...
not a single drop...
... but should I start worrying she loosing trust in me? 
)
So I'm up...
and on the computer for the sole purpose of convincing FedEx to change the delivery address on a parts order from July(!)...
Otherwise they attempt delivery to my former workplace... who still haven't paid me since June...
We'll have to see how that works out... currently the system still refuses to even acknowledge the given tracking number...
Sunday ze GF vanished from the house...
found her... out on the street... inside her car... on her back... arms and legs up in the air...
armed with a can of high-temp spray-glue and a repurposed paint-roller she was reattaching the peeling headliner fabric...
passerby's and dog-walkers staring... irritated...
during the heat wave the foam-padding, sandwiched between the card-board and the gray textile disintegrated into orange powder...
according to "Dr. Google" not uncommon within German made cars...
my original plan was to remove the entire headliner from the car, haul it into the terrace and deal with the problem there...
quite a task, removing A-, B- and C-column covers, pull door seals, sun-visors, inside mirror & dome lights, etc...
so ze GF thought 'screw that!', went out by herself, unclipped the plastic cover below the hatchback hinges in the rear, reached in/forward into the cavity with the glue-spray in her hand...
anyway, up close its like the surface of the moon, but its back on...
have a great day!
