Welcome to Episode 202 of my podcasts The view from the crow's nest. And it is Friday 22nd of January, 2021. Today, I had a bad sleep last night. Didn't get sleep after three woke up, I guess. Seven something or something. I guess yeah what I was talking about yesterday, or maybe a day before, but yeah basically I think not enough creative stuff not enough fun work should we say too much of this marketing and business stuff. And once again, is taking me away from, you know, especially the progress I was making with my art, and it's making me antsy, but also something else that has been bothering me, I realised and I forgotten, is when the place when the house is a mess. You know the environment really makes a big difference to me and even though I might be in my room. A lot of the time, if I'm feeling challenged overwhelmed or frustrated, etc. Then when I go in the other room subconsciously if I see mess everywhere, and mess all over the hall and blah blah, then it really does affect me and today I had a bit of a bit of a shout out everybody and let's get this place sorted and blah blah blah. And what possibly kicked it off as well, is we had a washing machine we paid you know whatever a few 100 euros for the washing machine then we paid 60 euros for a guy to come in and fit it because he had to do some piping or something for the thing. And I went to turn it on today and just before I did it's got one of these German they're called schuko plugs, even though we're in Italy and you need an adapter. And it's pretty standard stuff and I was just thinking Hang on a sec though but this adapter is Max 1500 watts. And I'm pretty sure the dishwasher is probably stronger than that and it was like 2300 watts. So you shouldn't be running it through this adapter. So I went downstairs, because there's a shop downstairs that sells all sorts of things including adapters, and every adapter the maximum is 1500 watts. And I said, well, hang on a minute. That's a bit weird so I did my research and found out that basically, you don't really get these type of adapters, anything more than 1500 watts. And yeah, I know that all of the major appliances like white goods appliances washing machines dishwashers they already use the schuko plugs and a little while ago we had a melted plug from exactly this kind of thing from the washing machine. And we just put it down to it being old we called an electrician he rewired the socket put in a new socket, put a new schuko plug adapter on the washing machine, and I didn't think anything of it so I checked it today, and a little fucker put a 1500 watt on which you shouldn't have done because that's what causes melts and potentially fires. So I was very disappointed with both of these guys the guy who did the washing machine a few months ago and the guy who did the dishwasher. Plug in a couple of days ago. So we found another electrician, because it's dangerous you can't do it it's dangerous Yo, so find another electrician and actually he came like 10 minutes after we called him who was basically driving past. He had a look he said alright cool cool cool, I can do all of this, I might be able to come this evening. You know, we'll see. And he just turned up rocked up this evening with another guy. And not only did he replace the actual wall socket, so we don't need the adapter so you can put the sugar plug in, but he did the same thing for the washing machine. And he also did that in the bedroom here where I'm working I've only got one wall socket, he doubled up my wall sockets, and I think. Did he give me two shakos or one schuco in a normal one. Either way, He also took my English like soccer, I've got this tower power tower thing you've put all sorts stuff into, and he took the English plug in he rewired it to an Italian plug. So that was another 60 euros. So, the dishwashers cost us like, I don't know, whatever 270 euros, the dishwasher and then another 120 euros just to have people basically saw out the elec
