First day back at work and there's a massive power cut throughout Spain and Portugal. Had to find some analogue ways to entertain myself the last few hours

I've been playing a bunch of Fifa over the last few days and decided to make a spreadsheet alongside it to track my squad/results/transfers in my career mode save. Genuinely having an absolute blast playing this way.

Can confirm managed to get what I asked for ("tienes lubricante de silicona?") and now my office chair is smooth and non-squeaky. Success!

We're still second-bottom but only 4 points away from the top half. If we can keep our form up then we could start rising the table very quickly.
Important game against Aberdeen next week.

It's absolutely laughable Aberdeen's collapse in form. 1 win in 10, 6 points from 30.

The most obvious one that somehow took me a while to nice is that the two girls have completely differently styled faces. Clearly it didn't matter but how was this not noticed?

Just realised Playa Del Inglés was my top song of 2023 as well, lmao

Definitely listening to less music day-to-day than I used to. Not having a commute makes the difference really.
Also lmao only one song in my top 5 is by any artist in my top 5 (Playa Del Inglés, Quevedo)

Next step was to drill a clean hole and then fill it with a wooden dowel. Again, not a carpenter, so I'm doing this as DIY as possible. This guitar won't be sold, it just needs to play well.
And as you can see, it's not overly pretty, but should hopefully do the job. IKEA dowel, wood glue. Sorted.

The main issue with the broken tuner was that the screw holding it in place was snapped clean off – leaving it embedded in the wood (sadly no before pic).
I am by no means a carpenter, but a quick search said I needed to drill it out. 20 minutes and a trip to the shop and I managed to get it out.

Then I realised that one of the tuners was actually bent and damaged. This was definitely the priority to fix. It still worked, but who knows for how long.
You can see in this image the top tuner is bent out of place.

First thing I thought was to replace the bridge. None of my guitars (all in storage sadly) have a tremolo so I wanted to get a decent quality bridge in so I could potentially mess around with that. The old bridge was somewhat rusted and cheap and it should be a simple enough replacement.

Papa Roach and Rise Against double headline US tour is actually cruel. Why does the US get all the good tour lineups?

Went to my first competitive Hearts game last night since COVID, and what a cracker of a game. Proper pressing, attacking football, and two fantastic goals as well.
