+ washed my car today in the morning
- 20 minutes after I left a car wash it started raining: heavy rain with hail; there had been three rains before I got home and now my car is dirty again 

[Doggie 1]

As long as it's not damaged from the hail.

+ have just come back from Finland
+ everything was ok
+ I like cruise-control and speed limit features
- It's not an i30

[meehalych]

+ I'm going to Ladoga lake for two days fishing on Sunday 
+ I'm on vacation from 14 August till 2 September
- time to think about a set of winter tires and rims (I reckon it would cost me 1200 USD): 16" alloy rims and Michelin X-ice north or Bridgestone Ice cruiser 7000 (or 5000)

+ I have received my parking sensors today
- my PC went dead yesterday, it starts (leds are flashing), but no video signal goes to either screen or TV (tried with a common cable and HDMI one, with additional video card both plugged in and out), I reckon it is Motherboard fault.  ANY IDEAS?   
+ I fortunate to have a laptop as a back-up

[Dazzler]

Sounds like a motherboard but very hard to diagnose with that bit of info..

I'm a big fan of process of elimination..

+ my PC came back to life yesterday: I removed one plank of memory (RAM) and PC started; I switched PC off placed memory back and turned PC on - PC started, but Windows didn't
- I had to install Windows
+ fishing was ok back on Sunday and Monday: during the first day I managed to catch only 3 fish (one - river perch; others - pikes) whereas on the second day I was a little bit more lucky and caught 8 fish (pikes)

[Dazzler]

Good news about your PC.. I thought there was something fishy going on

+ my Cee'd is in the service where parking sensors and protective lattice are being installed, moreover I expect my issue with emergency lights will be solved at last
+ 2 days off yet remain; 4 days on then and a vacation till 3d September afterwards 
+ a salary this year is supposed to be high due to vacation benefits, more work hours in July and one additional day on duty (some money is to be set aside for the new winter tires)

[Doggie 1]

What is protective lattice?

[Dazzler]

What is protective lattice?

I wondered that too 

[meehalych]

What is protective lattice?

lattice/net
well it is mean to protect car's radiator against flying stones  , as the cells in the front bumper of Cee'd are too huge for even stones to pass through and hit radiator, that may lead to a puncture (one of my friend, who drives Hyundai Solaris/new Accent, have faced this problem when a stone made a hole in a radiator, so air conditioning went dead)

[Doggie 1]

Ah, ok, got you now. 

[Dazzler]

Oh Ok .. can look good if the right materia is used.. 

[meehalych]

Oh Ok .. can look good if the right materia is used.. 

I doubt it may be spotted while one passes by car as this lattice/net (which of these two words are more preferable, by the way?) is set to a rear side of bumber.
I'll take some photos tomorrow

- I left service center at 21 o'clock today, so time it took to install all gizmos was no close to one, which had been claimed in the morning
+ an issue with emergency light was finally fixed
- it was heavy rain when I went out of underground station in the evening and 15 minutes walk lay ahead. Needless to say my foots were wet, though I had an umbrella.

[Dazzler]

Hi Misha ..

I would call it Mesh (not sure what the others would call it) Look forward to the photos..

[Shambles]

Reminds me of my favourite sandwich. BLT. (Bacon, lattice and tomato)

[meehalych]

+ two days more and I'm on vacation 
+ I have ordered a set of winter wheels (15" Continental ContiIceContact 195/65 + 15" alloy rims)

Moreover 16 August is the first day of my vacation
